Nalgene Wide Mouth Sustain 1L Water Bottle Blue

I have had a bunch of these bottles for over ten years and I have given them to my kids too. We've never been able to break one, even when I dropped one 40 metres down a cliff face. They just keep going and going. (It wasn't a full 40 m drop - it bounced it's way down. The bottom was damaged but I kept using it for another two years until I lost it.) I left my favourite bottle in a taxi in Sydney and it was so sad! That bottle had been with me to Everest Base Camp, Annapurna Base camp and on the Komano Kodo Kohechi trek in Japan. So now it was time to buy another bottle and of course I went with another Nalgene.

Nalgene water bottles have been popular and have been around for a very long time they’re tried and true staple in the household they’re BPA free and the plastic doesn’t degrade on the inside. I trust the company wholeheartedly and I always love purchasing their products. I got this particular 32 ounce water bottle from a company that sponsors me for free, but I would buy it with my own money if needed!

Not only have I had the same nalgene bottle at my office job for the last 6 years, I have one for the gym and one for outdoor activities. We were frisbee golfing the other weekend and my brother in law got his frisbee stuck in a tree. After some attempts at shaking the tree and throwing some rocks, the thing wouldn't budge. Without hesitation I handed him my 32oz full nalgene bottle and told him to chuck it at the frisbee. Initially he told me no way, this frisbee was about 20 feet up in this tree, he thought for sure my bottle would meet its demise on the way down and crash upon impact. I had absolutely all the faith in the world that my bottle would survive and encouraged him to get his $14 frisbee back using my trusty bottle. Anyway, he flung my bottle with all ... MoreNot only have I had the same nalgene bottle at my office job for the last 6 years, I have one for the gym and one for outdoor activities.

Anyway, he flung my bottle with all his might, multiple times, about 20-25 feet in the air, and the bottle had relatively decent aerodynamics to help propell it to space. I stood there with absolute confidence in my bottle and never broke a sweat. Even with every crash back on the ground as my brother in law cringed, I stood there calmly and told him to keep going until after about 8 or 9 throws, we finally got the frisbee down. Nalgene is the bomb and will be the only bottles I buy, because chances are I'll only need to buy half a dozen over the course of my lifetime.

Honestly wasn't too impressed with this water bottle. I received it as a gift when partaking in a psychology experiment/study and I had a few issues with it. The way to grip it unless you have a clip of some sort is the little handle made from the lid when it is screwed on. I thought, "cool, I'll carry this by my finger/fingers" since it was a small little opening. The plastic was stiff and the angle hurt my fingers to carry across campus. It also smelled kind of strange the whole time I had mine and thinking about that every time I took a sip of water was distressing. The smell never died down or got better. It smelled cheap, artificial, plastic-y, and I was concerned for how that was affecting the quality of my water. Lastly, I generally prefer a straw or sipper ... MoreHonestly wasn't too impressed with this water bottle.

As simple and pure as drinking water can be

Everything you could ask for in a water bottle - wide mouth for big chug and easy fill, BPA free and easy to clean. As a rock climber I love Nalgenes. You're not a real climber unless you own one and throw decals all over it. After a tough route I'll lower down, catch my breath and down some water and I could honestly say water from my Nalgene tastes heavenly. Ultra durable, comes in a variety of colours and built to last. What are you waiting for!? Get yourself a Nalgene and stay hydrated!

Lightweight environmentally conscious and functional

Why I like my Nalgene bottle:- they lightweight being made of plastic, I attach them to my bag with a caribena when travelling and fill it as I go.- have a great seal. I've camped with hot water in my Nalgene bottle to keep my sleeping bag warm. I never have to worry about it leaking.- are robust- have a wide mouth (good for pouring melted snow in from a pan)- can take hot or cold liquid.

Made from recycled plastic: great. Wrapped in extra plastic: not great

I bought this replacement wide mouthed Nalgene bottle because I left mine somewhere on a hike the other day. I've always found these bottles great. This was only the third one I have ever purchased. And...it's the only one wrapped on the outside in a further layer of unnecessary plastic film! What??? How good is this for the environment? One more sheet of plastic that hopefully will go in the right recycling bin at the waste recycling depot. Bad move, maker of Nalgene bottle. This is the only reason I give it 3 stars instead of 5. Great bottles otherwise.

NALGENE TRITAN WIDE MOUTH 1 LITRE BOTTLE

I bought the Glow in the dark version of this bottle and love it. Its super tough and looks like it will last forever. Can't believe I have wasted money on other drinks bottle all these years. Should have bought one of these years ago. Decent size and easy to drink from. I really like the glow in the Dark one too as makes it easy when grabbing a drink during the night and the bottle lets off a slight glow in the tent. Perfect bottle. Would recommend to anyone wanting a solid drinks bottle that's built to last.

Nalgene

Supplying quality products backed up by an easy purchase process and delivery was quick. The bottle was perfect for the last bush walk I went on, being light weight, also purchased the insert for the smaller mouth piece and it was perfect. Included a hand written thank you note, so you know they appreciate the business. Happy to continue supporting the little guy!
