Nalgene BPA Free Tritan Wide Mouth Water Bottle, 32 Oz, Gray with Black Lid

Everywhere I look, someone is boasting about the popular classic 32 oz. Nalgene bottles. So I figured it was time for me to get one. I ordered the 32 oz. wide mouth in grey/black lid. PROS: + The bottle feels very nice in hand. + Cap has defined ridges on it for a positive grip when opening or closing. + I am not terribly rough with it so I cant say for durability for drops and falls. I imagine that at some point if I were careless enough I could break it but the material feels like thick quality plastic that I cant flex. Its very firm. + I havent run it through a dishwasher yet but cleaning by hand is a breeze because of the wide mouth. + Last but not least, it holds liquids well. CONS: None at the moment. Next I will get the same bottle but with the smaller opening. No fault of Nalgene but sometimes I dont want to feel like I am drinking from a bucket with the wide mouth opening. But this is a preference thing. I am definitely glad that I got one of these bottles finally to see why it is so popular. It holds the perfect amount of water for a lengthy car ride or a small exploratory hike. Definitely a good purchase. Was this review helpful? Please let me know. Thank you. EDIT on 5/23/19: So I have been using this bottle for a bit now and I do enjoy it. Recently, I made a major mistake. I filled the bottle all of the way up and capped it and then wanted to give it a cold shot so I put it in the freezer for 10 minutes. Well, I had gotten side tracked and left it in the freezer for over 24 hours. I didnt leave room for expansion during the freezing process. I didnt know what I would find.... I took it out and I noticed that it was bulging at the bottom. So basically when I stand it up, it teeters and rolls around and easily wants to tip over. I just left it out to acclimate and I was shocked that within 15 minutes as the ice began to melt, the bottom looked normal again. It is still thawing out but it stands up flat again and seems fine. Hopefully no permanent damage was done (i.e.- more fragile against a drop or fall) Gotta say that I was expecting to have to order another but Ill just hang on to this one for a while longer.

I have been looking for a water bottle that is specifically BPA free and that has a wider mouth on it. When I was searching for a water bottle I wanted something that had a handle on it so I could attach it to a book bag or pants loop or simply carry it around hand frees. I wanted a water bottle with a strap/loop on it so I could attach it with a carbiner. This way I could easily attach it to a book bag or the loops on my jeans etc. One of the biggest reasons I chose Nalgene was because it is BPA free and that it is a large size. I got so tired of re- filling up my other water bottle all the time because it simply just didnt hold enough liquid. This Nalgene water bottle is GREAT. I also love the wide mouth on it so I can chug a ton of water fast. If you are looking for a water bottle get this one. If the price is too high consider all the factors above and know you have made a great investment!

I love this water bottle for a number of reasons. 1) It shows volume amounts on the side so I can track how much water Im drinking down to the ounce. I love getting into tiny details like this with my routine, so this makes me happy. 2) It only occasionally seems to pick up a weird smell (I only drink water in it) but Im pretty sure this is because I wait so long between thorough washings. It comes out with one good scrub, so yeah cant complain there either. And most importantly 3) I work in an industrial environment, I hike a lot, and I have a cat that loves to knock everything I own off higher surfaces and onto the floor. Combining all of these hazards means this bottle ends of thrown around a lot. I can hear the plastic smashing into the floor, walls, etc. very clearly every time (no small thuds here) but it has barely gotten a scratch much less had any cracking issues. I am thoroughly impressed by the quality of this Nalgene bottle and I am baffled as to why I have never used their products before.

This bottle CHANGED my life. Oh my bejeezus. The wide mouth on this thing fits mine perfectly like looney tunes on Sunday morning after church. Jeepers. Oh and don’t ya know, you can stick this sucker in the dishwasher! I am astounded by the amount of joy this BPA free piece of hydration can do for ya. MUST buy and that’s a fact!

I had to buy this bottle twice, because i left it somewhere and that person never owned up that i left it. Anyhoo. I love this bottle, the wide mouth makes it easy to clean, which i love. However, to be honest it can also be a drag, i have to stop walking at the gym or when im out because if i dont water (or tea) EVERYWHERE! i love that it has the oz and ml on the side, its great to mixing pre workout or post work out if you so must. I also like the color i choose is clear, so i can see easily. The bottle is lightweight, so i also like to travel with it. Take it to the airport empty, fill it up past TSA and ive never had an issue. I actually bought a few years ago all my friends one, when another friend lost hers too (at the gym), she also repurchased. Drink on up

Just I expected from these containers

I own both the 32 and 48 oz versions of this and I love having it. Very easy to clean/sterilize and the screw top is very secure. The top itself is so secure that it takes a little effort to unscrew if you do it too tight but even a modest tightening leaves it secure enough that you need not worry about spilling. The plastic connector that keeps the top on is a nice addition which also provides a loop to hold the bottle from though I wouldnt hook it to a carabiner and go walking with it as I suspect it might grow weak after a few months usage. The price is amazing, the look is fantastic, why use anything else. My co-worker says that made in the usa is also a +10 for this product and I reasonably agree. I used to take 1-liter bottles of water to work as we didnt have access to clean water without $$. 15-bottles at 6.2~ from costco poland spring at 1 or 2 a day (5 d/w, 12 m/y) is anywhere between $6-18 p/m depending on frequency. The 48-ounce silo is about 1.5 liter and if you use that (which is like 12$ on amazon) you save the $6-18 after a month or two. Even if you need to replace it due to an accident/loss whatever, you save money.

I carry this every day. This is the best water bottle that I have ever used. It has never leaked and I recommend this to everyone that asks about it for that reason. I am considering purchasing another as a back up. My Fiancee even bought one since I liked mine so much. She bought a smaller one that she can throw in her purse (it also has never leaked in her purse). Function: It serves its intended purpose. It holds water, and it holds it very well. It has never leaked on me. It does sweat, but I expected that. Due to my heavy use of it some of the lettering is coming off, although it is still legible. The stripped texture on the lid is very conductive to grip for tightening or removal. It is easier to wash than many bottles I have. I do have trouble fitting it into some cup holders, but I knew it was a larger bottle. Quality: It feels sturdy and looks sturdy. I have dropped it a few times in the house and on tile with no resulting cracks or marks. I have never dropped it on concrete though. I carry this bottle by the strap that holds the cap on. A few people have mentioned that it broke on them. I have not experienced this. I have clipped it up in my range bag before and it has held up well. The only thing that I want to get to complete this is some sort of insulated carrier for it. Nalgene has some proprietary ones and there are a few universal ones that I am looking into.

I purchased 2 of these in different colors. They have far exceeded expectation. I fill one 1/4 full of water & freeze it for my tea, and one 3/4 full of water for afternoon water. In the morning I top them both off & have ice cold beverages all day. There is absolutely no weird taste given off from the bottles so I assume they stand by their word of BPA free. They are easy to open & close and fit well in my cooler. (They are as tall as a normal G@torade bottle) Just be careful drinking and not let the lid fly back & hit you (hasnt happened but could) :) Overall an A+. Will buy again if needed.

This bottle has been fantastic! And it’s extremely durable! I have dropped it so many times and it keeps on ticking! Great bottle!
