Water bottles can be easily overlooked since they serve just one purpose: to hold drinking water. However, reusable water bottles have evolved over time and now come in different styles, with varied features and even improved insulation. Additionally, reusable water bottles are more environmentally friendly than single-use plastic bottles and can save you money in the long run. Reusable water bottles are also a good way to hold yourself accountable to drink more water throughout the day. It’s important to stay hydrated, especially as we enter the warmer months.
Whether you like to add electrolytes to your water or prefer it plain yet crisp at every sip, there are water bottles on the market that can satisfy your preferences. We tested various water bottles and narrowed down our favorites based on our experience. Take a look at our top picks below.

Klean Kanteen’s water bottle won me over based on its design. The twist cap incorporates a built-in straw that pops up when you twist it and folds down when you seal it back up. It’s simple yet functional, which makes it ideal for commuting or the office. It’s BPA-free and made up of 90% post-consumer recycled stainless steel. At 16 ounces, it isn’t the biggest bottle on the list, but it’s light enough to carry around with you and owing to the slim size, it’s easy to hold in your hand. Klean Kanteen also offers 12-, 20- and 32-ounce bottles in this style. This bottle claims to keep water cold for up to 46 hours. I tested this out and was impressed that the water was still cool that many hours later. This is important to keep in mind if you’re opting for an insulated bottle.
If the twist cap is not your cup of tea, you can also opt for a wide loop cap, which is a cover with a handle you can twist off, or the TKwide chug cap, which offers a different type of drinking spout that is made for outdoor activities. This is an easy-to-clean water bottle that is dishwasher safe and has a chip-resistant coating, so it’s built to last.
Pros:
- Clean-looking design
- Easy to use
- Dishwasher safe
- Keeps water cold
Cons:
- Expensive
- Not all cap options can be used with hot liquids
- Additional caps cost extra

If you’re not looking to spend a lot of money on a water bottle, but want a trusted brand, then the Nalgene Narrow Mouth Tritan Water Bottle is your best choice. At under $15, it’s not the fanciest of the bunch, but it comes in multiple colors and is the biggest bottle on the list at 32 ounces. It’s made of a BPA- and BPS-free plastic and is durable so it can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The downsides to this bottle are that some people may find it bulky, and it also isn’t insulated. Therefore, you’re more likely to end up with room temperature water after a while. The good news is there was no condensation noted during our testing, so you won’t likely have to worry about handling a damp bottle.
This water bottle is translucent, which makes it easy to see if you’re due for a refill. Even though you have to twist the lid off, the narrow mouth makes it easy to drink from without spilling all over. The lid also makes it leak-proof, which is important if you’re taking it everywhere with you.
Pros:
- Affordable
- Comes in various colors
- Holds a lot of volume
- Dishwasher safe
Cons:
- No insulation
- Size can be too bulky for some
- Not as sophisticated looking as other bottles on the list

The Corkcicle Sport Canteen easily became one of my favorite bottles, not only because of its design, but because I found it to be versatile enough for home and gym use. It’s made of BPA-free materials and triple-insulated steel. It’s dishwasher safe which makes it easy to clean. You can choose from a 20- or 32-ounce options, but I found the 20-ounce to be more than enough. Corkcicle offers plenty of colors to choose among, and the distinctive bottle design isn’t the traditional water bottle shape. The top part of the bottle is slightly wider and angular, and it has flat sides for easy gripping, while the base has a nonslip silicone pad that makes the bottle extra sturdy and less likely to tip over. The quick sip cap prevents spills when drinking, and it’s designed in a way that is easy to flip open and close.
According to Corkcicle, the bottle can keep beverages cold for up to 25 hours and hot for 12 hours. I tested this by leaving the bottle filled with water overnight and I can confirm that the water remained somewhat cool, but not as cold as during the earlier part of the day. Still, every time I took a sip of water throughout the daytime, the water was always still fresh and cold. The only other bottle that had it beat was the Iceshaker, which is known for its ability to keep drinks ice cold.
This bottle is suitable for home, work or even the gym, especially if you want to guarantee that your water will remain chilled during hotter days.
Pros:
- Keeps water cold
- Versatile design
- Dishwasher safe
Cons:
- May be overly large for some users
- Some people may prefer a different drinking nozzle

If you want a trusty stainless steel water bottle that is school- or office-friendly, then you’ll like the S’well bottle. The S’well Blue Granite Bottle is BPA- and BPS-free and made with food grade stainless steel. It uses S’well’s "Therma swell technology," meaning it’s triple-layer vacuum insulated to keep your water cold for up to 48 hours or hot for as long as 24 hours. This varies upon the size of the bottle — the bigger the bottle, the longer your beverage will maintain its temperature. There are plenty of bottle designs to choose from and sizes including 9, 17 and 25 ounces.
I liked that this water bottle is designed to be appropriate for just about any setting and it doesn’t sweat. If you opt for the 25-ounce bottle, it’s on the heavier side so if weight is a concern, choose one of the smaller options. Another downside to this bottle is that it is not dishwasher safe, so you will have to wash it by hand. This isn’t the biggest deal if you mainly intend to use it for water rather than flavored or hot beverages. It also doesn’t have a handle like many others on the list, so I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re going on a hike or walk.
However if you’re a student, an office worker, you attend yoga class regularly or have another reason to want a bottle that you can keep by your side, then the S’well bottle is a safe choice. You’ll also be satisfied with how refreshing your water tastes throughout the day. When I tested it to see how cold the water remained over a 24-hour period, it fell short, but realistically, most people aren’t looking to drink water left overnight. They will most likely refill their bottles on a daily basis. This bottle would make the ideal gift as well since it’s available in many designs and shades.
Pros
- It keeps water cold
- Various bottle designs
- Made of durable stainless steel
- Available in different sizes
Cons
- Expensive
- Not dishwasher safe
- Falls short on its promise to keep liquid cold for 24 hours
- Larger size bottle can feel heavy for some users

I’d previously tested the Ice Shaker for a best protein shaker list and loved it because it can be used both for protein shakes and as a water bottle. This time I tried it just as a water bottle, and it still held up and remained the best insulated bottle on the list. The 26-ounce bottle is made with kitchen-grade stainless steel and has a double-wall vacuum insulated design. It comes with a flip-up straw, which makes it easy to sip water throughout the day. The Ice Shaker also has a handle that makes it easy to transport while you’re on the go. My only gripe is that it would be nice to have different sizes available — the only other size is a 20-ounce bottle in a skinny shaker that doesn’t have the same nozzle as the sport bottle.
This bottle claims to remain cold for 30 hours. I tested this out and found it also fell short, similar to the S’well bottle. However, I did find it kept water the coldest of all the bottles I tested, so that’s still a win. In fact, one of my friends owns an Ice Shaker bottle and says it’s their favorite bottle because they can leave it in the car for hours and still come back to ice cold water. It’s also sweatproof, so you don’t have to worry about condensation appearing at any point.
You can use it for all sorts of beverages, including iced tea, wine, sports drinks and more. The bottle is designed so it doesn’t retain odors after washing, which makes it versatile and ideal to hold different types of drinks. If you want a bottle that can do it all while keeping your water or drink fresh and crisp at each sip, you’ll enjoy the Ice Shaker.
Pros:
- Keeps water ice cold
- Can be used for beverages other than water
- Versatile enough for the gym, office or outdoors
Cons:
- Expensive
- Doesn’t have different size options
