Amazingly Good March 6, 2009

I own and regularly use 3 of these water bottles and I have to say they are the best water bottles I've ever owned. First off I don't pretend to understand all of the science behind the BPA debate, but I always think that if you can err on the side of caution, why not do it, and in this case Nalgene has made it really easy. These bottles are very solid. I use them to take water or gatorade with me when I golf and they get smacked around a bit riding in the side compartment of my golf bag (I play a lot of walking courses) and I've had no problems with them cracking or even getting scratched. The lids screw on easily and tightly and I've never had one of these bottles leak.
Another great thing about them is that they have virtually no smell. They don't have any sort of plastic aftertaste and they won't make water taste nasty, even if it gets heated up by the sun.
I also like the thick plastic band that connects the lid to the bottle. It has a dual purpose: preventing the loss of the lid (obvious) and doubling as a loop which you can connect the bottle to a lanyard or rope for carrying it. This is handy with certain backpacks.
With a variety of great colors to choose from, there is little not to like about these water bottles. I highly recommend them.

I've used Nalgene water bottles for backpacking for years. They're rugged, lightweight and a great choice for the outdoor enthusiast. I currently use a red version of this new BPA free water bottle everyday at work for ice water.
My only recommendation would be to check your local outdoor retailer stores. I've found this same bottle for less (around $10)in several stores. Nice bottle but I wouldn't pay $15+ for it!

Great water bottle. It has a clean (clear) look to it and does not have any strong odor. It's opening is wide enough that you can clean out the bottle properly. It's survived some moderate "rough" handling.
Great! February 12, 2009

I own both the Nalgene and the Camelbak BPA-free Tritan bottles. I like them both really well and use them both for different situations. The Nalgene is a great carry around bottle, while the Camelbak is probably better suited for the gym or biking (due to its bite valve). One nice thing about this Nalgene is the Camelbak tops (with the bite valve) will fit right on it.
What else can be said about the Nalgene? It just does its job and does it well. These new BPA-free tritan bottles are just as durable as the old polycarbonate ones, but without the potentially harmful leaching. Moreover, I have heard people say these new bottles do not retain odors or taste when left in a warm environment. The only way to break these bottles are with exotic explosions or liquid nitrogen (youtube for this). You can also fill it up with water and drop it off a building or slam it with a sledgehammer (while filled) and break it. However, just carrying it around for everyday use, you will find it almost impossible to break it merely by dropping it, washing it, stepping on it, or even running it over with your car.
I like these tritan bottles better than aluminum or steel because A) they are lighter and B) they are transparent. The color selection is nice, but could be a bit larger (like it was with the old polycarbonate bottles). I personally own the orange one with the white top.
The only con with this bottle is the mouth might be a bit too wide for drinking while moving (you might splash yourself). It is great for cleaning and dropping ice in, however.
Overall, the Nalgene is a legend, everyone should own one.
