What water bottle do you have?

[two_bit_score]

Hot or cold. At home or on the road. I use one of these for everything, mostly coffee.

Camelback Podium Chill. I ride a bicycle a lot and use if for that. It’s lightly insulated and you can leave it open to drink out of it but it’s setup so it doesn’t leak.

My Klean Kanteen was knocked out of my cup holder by tall brush and I ran over it. It doesn’t leak a drop, I still use it every day.

I use these from Embrava:

They fit the cup holders on my Kubota tractors and do double duty on my bikes as well.

I like the flip up lid that can be opened with just one hand.

That type of lid is what I prefer, so my water is not dusty/muddy when I go to drink it.

I currently using a couple of Zulu that are stainless steel from wally world that seems to work good.

I use stainless steel, uninsulated. Mine are 2.75 inch diameter and hold 27 oz, which fit my cup holder. I don't care about the temperature as long as it is wet.

Even been known to reuse a pepsi bottle or two.

Pretty much what I do. Actually I prefer a Gatorade bottle since it has a larger mouth.
My tractor doesn't have cupholders, so I'll just wedge it between the seat and fender.

 

[wawajake]

I use a garden hose when outside, and a tumbler from cupboard when inside

But then you have to buy the Gatorade, what little of it I've tried I didn't care for at all. I was restricted as to which ones I could have then while prepping for a procedure.
Of course when I'm in my Branson I can even cheat a bit and use the cooler that came with her;

I'm trying to buy a water bottle to use because I need to drink more water but am baffled by the huge number of brands, shapes and capacities. Someone said buy a Yeti but there are dozens of those. I looked at some 40 ouncers at Costco but it's the size of a thermos and won't fit in my cupholder.

We're just typical retired rural people. What do you have for a water bottle or what do you suggest?

The one I use is very similar to this, except it's an Aladdin and yellow. A few ice cubes will keep water cold for hours. Mine didn't come with a straw, but I recycled a heavy duty hospital flexible straw that has lasted 3 years now. The bottom fits the tractor and pickup cup holders, and 30 oz. is a lot of water, I figure about 1 liter.

I have a "Reduce" tumbler that we got as a Christmas present three years ago. Fits nice in the Cub Cadet cup holder and keeps the wine nice and cold on hot days. And it is fairly stout and well made.

 

[Rockbadchild]

That's my go to, espicially during the summer, it's a 1 gallon jug and no it doesn't fit in any cup holder, It stay cold for a long time and most importantly it rarely get empty but I fill it back up at noon just to make sure it doesn't by the end of the day. I like to make sure I don't run out of water, with this jug I can wash my hand, give water to my dog or poor some on my head if I need to while still have plenty to drink.

 

[HawkinsHollow]

My kid has one like in post #10, it is called an Owala Flip sip. You can drink from it like a straw OR drink out of it like a cup. He likes it.

I use a big 32 oz insulated mug I got at Costco. It has a flip top lid to keep the dust and dirt out of my water. It comes with a sissy stick, but I don't use that. Just flip up the lid and take a sip.

 

[tacticalturnip]

Between me, my wife, and my children, we have quite the assortment. They've got bottles of all kinds, I might grab one, but just as often I'll fill a coffee thermos with water.

Have you ever tried the Cucumber-Lime? That is the only Gatorade flavor I have found likable to me.

No, I've only gotten the ones that were allowed when preping for a colonoscopy.
I hadn't found any that I cared for.

 

[paulsharvey]

I like a plain old 30 oz Yeti, full of ice, and retop with whatever cheap bottles of water are on sale at the gas station.

 

[sixdogs]

I'm the OP and agree you need more than one of these. I bought a 40 oz one at Costco but it's huge and awkward. It's OK for the barn or outside and holds enough when it's hot.

Next I have my eye on a 32 oz Yeti that will fit better in the car or truck and still holds enough to be meaningful.

Thanks for all the great responses.

If ya want to go quality but cheaper, buy the basic Walmart Ozark trail 32oz stainless cup and then buy the better Yeti lid / cap separately ... Best of both worlds and still have a cheap backup lid in case you misplace the better Yetti cap like I always do, lol

I don't mind it, sure tastes better than that stuff they used to prescribe for a colonoscopy. I tend to sweat a lot so I'll supplement water with the Gatorade.
Then again, I'll drink Moxie which is not something that's universally enjoyed.
