Water bottle recommendations

I want a new water bottle. I’ve gone off my old shaker ones that I used to use for protein shakes. I don’t usually drink protein shakes now and just want a nice bottle for water. I don’t like plastic bottles generally and have glass cups and bottle I used at home although realise this isn’t practical for the gym or even if we’re allowed glass bottles in the gym. I wouldn’t want a metal one so it would be plastic I think.

Just had a look and liked this but it’s £80!

TIA

Any ideas?

Kleen Kanteen are great

Squ1ggle · 29/06/2019 17:14

Oh sorry, misread your post, just realised you don't want metal

AliceRR · 29/06/2019 17:17

I like the look of the Joseph ones but the reviews are not very good (break easily, leak etc)

Tkmaxx have got lots in at the moment, I got one of these from there for £9.99.

Have a look at 'hydratem8' they have a sale on up to 50% off..
I swear by my metal 'chilly's bottle' though and I was very anti metal!

AliceRR · 29/06/2019 17:30

I have something similar to this but it’s glass

🤔 Not sure whether I should rethink metal but I’ll only know if I like it by getting one...

80 quid for a water bottle!

Christ we have serious problems if we need to link our water bottles to an app to remind us to do one of the most basic things like drink.

£80 as well, they must see their customers from a mile off!!!

Camelbak Eddy is the one I have settled on after much experimentation. Might be a bit cheap for you though.

Mondayblues7 · 29/06/2019 17:45

Hydratem8. I love mine.

AliceRR · 29/06/2019 17:49

Agreed. I liked it for the look but not worth £80 obvs

Camelbak Eddy is the one I have settled on

I don’t mind that

hydratem8

They’re ok

Thanks for the suggestions. I’m sure I’m being a bit fussy 🙈

I second the Camelbak Eddy - best water bottle I've ever used!

AliceRR · 29/06/2019 21:09

Thanks

I’ve just been to Morrison’s and bought a bottle there. I quite liked it. It’s glass with a silicone cover. I got it in yellow (think it looks better in real life)

It was £4. I wouldn’t mind a filter one maybe (Brita) but I’m quite happy with this for now

I’d been taken bottled water and I know it’s not v environmentally friendly...

Baritriwsahys · 29/06/2019 21:55

Wow, that's really smart!

AliceRR · 29/06/2019 22:03

I really liked it

Think it’s looks better IRL too (photo a bit dark / bright flash)

Great for the price!

They had some nice metal bottle ones too that I was tempted by but decided on the glass

The Morrison's one looks good. I have this which I really like too. https://www.amazon.co.uk/MIU-COLOR-Bottle-Borosilicate-Silicone/dp/B076DC4384/ref=mpssa1117?keywords=glass+water+bottle+plastic+cover&qid=1561848754&s=gateway&sr=8-17

I like that one @testingtesting111

OP posts:
testingtesting111 · 30/06/2019 13:27

I quite like it. It doesn't have a filter, but I have a Britain's tap. So far the bottles have proved husband proof 😁

AliceRR · 30/06/2019 16:05

Yeah I have a Brita jug that I keep in the fridge so I’ll just fill my bottle up with that. It’s fine as most of the time I don’t refill again when I’m in the gym

OP posts:
AgnesNutterWitch · 30/06/2019 21:27

I have the Brita fill and go active (the dark plastic one) and it's brill, both for gym and life in general. Tap water where I am tastes awful and this way I can refill away from home.

AliceRR · 30/06/2019 21:30

A filter one would be good but I’m not keen on the look of the plastic on the Brita active one - not sure how to describe it. I’m more attracted to the normal Brita one from the pics but maybe I’d have to see it in real life
