Costco/kirkland water bottles have changed?

From handy pop tops to screw tops that are near impossible to close after opening.

And the plastic is so thin that its like holding a pouch of water. They dont hold their shape at all and if you drop them they explode!

Anyone else noticed this?

What do you want for about 20 pence a bottle?

Don’t buy bottled water. UK tap water is very good.

Hopefully because they are now made from recycled plastic

honestly people who buy bottled water in bulk!!

get a filter on your tap / use a filter jug in your fridge

Buy a decent reusable bottle instead and fill it from the tap, or from a 5 litre water bottle if you really can't deal with tap water.

I totally agree, they are bloody awful. It’s very convenient for me to just grab a bottle when I need but these are a risk as the slightest impact makes them split and I agree getting the lid back is a nightmare!

You’re right, and they taste just like tap water too. The old ones were better looking and better tastig
