I’ve been using a reusable 36oz/1L plastic “flip lid” bottle from Bezos’s market - this is my third one (sadly replaced almost on a yearly basis) since I keep accidentally breaking the lids.

It practically comes everywhere with me - walking, cycling, in my backpack. This lid is starting to crack at the hinge and the latch though, but don’t really want to replace it with the same thing again.

How long have you had you had your current bottle, and how are you finding it so far?

    I have many water bottles, most of them had at a great price from Costco. There is a some variety but they are mostly Takeya/ThermoFlask 40 oz vacuum insulated stainless steel bottles. I also have a couple gallon stainless steel vacuum insulated water bottles that are great for camping and travel. Those were sold as growlers, I think. I’ve had most of these for >5 years. This is one area where I’m doing buy it for life and it’s going well so far.
    I also have a 10 year old 1 liter un-insulated steel water bottle that I keep in the fridge. I should probably replace it but it still works.

    Please stop using plastic water bottles. Especially, but not only, disposable plastic. Not only is it bad for you (microplastics), it is bad for the environment.

    ETA: I just went to Costco tonight and those Thermo Flask bottles are on sale: 2 for $20, which is a great deal.
