We knew that people were particular about the best water bottles, but we had no idea how passionate people could get – until Stanley cups hit the news yet again.
This time, the giant tumblers – which apparently were topping tweens’ holiday gift wish lists this season – weren’t getting strictly positive attention. Instead, rumors that the Stanley cups contain lead began to gain steam. And although the claims were quickly debunked, water bottle aficionados took to the internet to make their feelings about what products really deserve the moniker of “best water bottle” known.
Even water bottle brands jumped into the fray. Hydro Flask posted on Instagram that their bottles do “NOT” use lead in their sealing process. Owala had a similar message on its social media platforms.
As it turns out, POPSUGAR editors have some pretty strong feelings about the best water bottles too. We’ve reviewed enough of them, after all, from insulated water bottles to time-increment water bottles to gallon-size water bottles. So we’ve compiled a list of our favorites. Ultimately, we may never agree on what really counts among the best water bottles on the market. But at least we’re not using single-use plastic bottles anymore!
