Does anyone have a water bottle that doesn’t leak? Login/Join

I’ve tried a few different kinds and they all leak randomly. I’d like to be able to put it in my passengers seat and not worry about it leaking if it tips over. Insulated or not doesn’t matter. Looking for at least 32 oz. Any help would be appreciated.

I have several. They are all stainless steel vacuum type bottles. Everyone will tell you to buy Hydroflask, but you don't need to spend the money just for the name. Look at Hydrapeak, you can find them on Amazon. I would recommend a Hydroflask lid. Get the traditional type, nothing that opens to drink from. Just a spin-on, off lid.

I’ve had many over the years and the oldest one is the one that’s lasted the longest. It’s a kleen canteen

Nalgene Oasis

I'm trying to find the video of the guy running over an Oasis with his truck and it doesn't break (the canteen, not the truck).

Made in the USA

Try to find a steel water bottle made in this country. Believe me, I looked.

I'm guessing the reason you're putting the water bottle in the passenger seat is that it doesn't fit in the cup holder in the center console.

If you're willing to drop down to 24 oz the Hydroflask fits in many vehicle's cupholders. It's 2.8" diameter so measure cupholder before buying.

Another option, BottlePro makes cupholder extenders that is adjustable to fit 32 to 40 oz water bottles

Been using these for years and they've never leaked once laying on their side.

I have several of these

I use the screw on cap and have never had a leak. Throw them on the passenger seat all the time.

Aluminum ok? Liberty Bottle is made in USA, they claim.

As to the original posted question, any spin off cap from any standard, available on amazon bottle should be good to go. I've got some by Hydroflask, as well as some more generic/no name types and the spin on/off ones all do just fine in the 'no leaks' department.

"Our Liberty Originals line of single wall aluminum bottles are made 100% start-to-finish in the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. The equipment it is produced on is 100% American made as well. All the components such as aluminum, powder coating, ink, caps and seals are also Made in America."

That about covers it, doesn't it? Admittedly, it's been quite a while since I searched.

You would think that Americans have forgotten how to produce simple extrusions.

Project Farm had a video testing which one was best, and one of the parameters was how the cups were with spills and drops.

Sorry, I was browsing during that video that came up in queue so I don’t remember which one came out on top with my divided attention. I do remember HydroFlask weren’t as good as my wife and I had been led to believe.

Hydroflask. Found many on sale - some as low as $15. I use the traditional top. 20, 24, 32 and 40. 40 is home, 32 at the office. 24 on the go. 20 was my original and fits in the vacation backpack.

Last I heard, aluminum is pretty bad for you.

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.

Have a couple of S'well brand and while they don't extreme use they have held up well for several years.
