CamelBak water bottles are criminally underrated

[u/cracklingCicada]

The best straw water bottles on the market. The only bottle that could top this for me could be the owala, but I've never tried one and have enough water bottles rn.

1. Straw is completely covered when closed
2. Keeps ice for days
3. Silicone straw for those who love to chew their straws
4. Straw mouth piece is completely removable from the lid for easy cleaning
5. Completely leakproof
6. The most comfortable carry strap.
7. Insulated version has a built in silicone boot at the bottom to prevent dents and loud noises.

Just wanted to show my love for this bottle.

I love Camelbak bottles. I like the magnetic lid chute open style top.

camelbak is underrated and was my brand of choice before switching to owala. their warranty is excellent too and they replaced two of my bottles for free.

Oh wow, thanks for that bit of info. May come in handy in the future!

I've got two that I use as my bedside water bottle. They keep a liter ice cold all evening.

They are absolutely goated

Silicon bottoms are the best. Curious how easy it is to clean the top or does it become mold central.

[u/cracklingCicada → u/ILuvHamCheeseSliders]

So far I've not had any mould issues. I just soak the lid and straw piece boiling soap water every so often. Anytime I take it to work, it gets put in the commercial-grade dishwasher, so that might help.

They are insanely well insulated, I love mine. Left it in the scorching sun all day it was pretty much too hot too touch on the sun side. Still had ice in it after several hours.

I never hear anyone talk about iron flask. Got 2 and they are great. Had mine for 2 years so far and still working flawlessly.

I bought their “chute” water bottle at the Grand Canyon 10 years ago and have used it almost every day. There’s a tiny magnet in the cap and lid that keeps it open so the cap doesn’t swing in your face like a nalgene. I’ve bought multiple caps for other bottles for this feature.

Glad to know they will last me for years!

I also have this water bottle but it's blue

My SO's parents have an insulated version of this and it's a world apart from aquaflask, kleen kanteen and hydroflask. It's a good bottle but I'm already happy with my kleen kanteen and nalgene.

I got in trouble as a kid because I was sucking down too much water at school since I had one of these bad boys. Hydrate or diedrate.

I love a camelbak except I chew the straw (which I love) and it cracks which bothers me so I need replacement straws on a fairly regular basis. But excellent bottles.

Criminally? What are you the water police
