Nalgene Sustain Tritan BPA-Free Water Bottle Made with Material Derived from 50% Plastic Waste, 16 OZ, Narrow Mouth

The 16oz size is just right for my needs, not too big or small. The loop on the cap makes a nice carrying strap. I like the smaller neck for drinking out of the bottle, but it’s not as easy to clean as my larger wide mouth Nalgene 32oz. I don’t like most of the color schemes offered and wanted a clear bottle but settled for the cerulean blue one. Another thing I don’t like is the diameter - it doesn’t fit into standard vehicle cup holders. I can wedge it into the upper end on mine, but it’s not secure.

I bought a Nalgene bottle 15+ years ago and it is still going strong, even the measurement markers are still there. There is no other plastic bottle that I know of that compares. These bottles are just as good and will likely last us longer than is needed, meaning that we wont have to waste money on single use plastics as much. Just spend the extra my money and get the best quality. Its worth it in the long run.

After years of forking out cash for other upscale brand water bottles for my family of 4, I angrily cleaned out my water bottle cupboard (yes, I have a water bottle cupboard) of broken, missing parts, leaky water bottles that averaged $20 each or more. I glanced over at the counter and there was my husbands trusty Nalgene (looks exactly like this except grey...not much has changed) from 2007. The volume measure on the side is a little worn off but still legible, and the bottle and cap are still trucking along, not leaking, doing their job, after a decade. I realized, those water bottles have been in the dishwasher multiple times per week for 10 years. Hes dropped them many times on various surfaces. He literally dropped one off a cliff while hiking and it survived. Theyve been left in super hot and super cold cars, frozen solid full of water when we found them. The cap is permanently attached, and there are no other parts to lose, so we still have them both intact. They were the only survivors of my purge. His 2 bottles are a plain grey, but now they come in other bright colors so I bought 2 for each family member in their own color choice. This teal with orange was perfect for my daughter. My son got red, and I have purple. What a relief! They are all the same size and shape, easily identifiable, and virtually indestructible. All parts are dishwasher friendly, the kids cant lose straws, caps, plugs, etc. The 16oz size is big enough for me to take on a hike but small enough for my grade school aged kids to handle. There are no fancy drinking mechanisms to learn, clean or break - its just a straight twist off cap that fits nice and tight so you dont worry about throwing it in the bottom of a backpack. And the price - great deal compared to the other bottles Ive been buying! Go for it...you wont be disappointed.

I really like this size Nalgene because it’s easier to use with my smaller, women’s hands. I have the big ones also, but always prefer this size because it’s so comfortable to hold and drink out of. And I like the smaller opening because it’s also more comfortable for drinking. I just use them for water, though, any other use might need a specialized bottle brush to clean thoroughly. Nalgenes rock, I love them and love that the loop holding the cap on makes a great way to carry them and that you never have to worry about losing the cap! And that you can fill them with hot water for a foot warmer in cold weather! And the markings on the side are handy for measuring! And they come in lots of really cool colors!

Made in America and very nice to use.

Good size opening for your mouth and bright colors! The water bottle is easy to clean and is surprisingly very much leak proof. I have had so many water bottles leak on me - this brand is a miracle!

I adore this little water bottle! I also have it in the bright blue color so I can keep one at work and one at home. I am normally attached to my Hydroflask to keep my water cold but this is perfect for a quick hike and to take somewhere I have a chance of losing it. It’s so light weight and holds the perfect amount of water for a couple hours. You can also drop it without many consequences! Extremely sturdy! The only reason it didn’t get 5 stars is because it does leak just a little. My purse and my hiking backpack have both had some wet spots with this water bottle despite making sure the cap is super tight. But not too bad that I’d stop using it. I highly recommend this!

I had a yellow one that my action figure prop--I always had it with me--and which I lost once on a trip to Portland. I replaced it with this, and its good, but one thing to be aware of is that it will leak for a moment after putting the lid on. I always have to be careful when putting it into my bag so my papers dont get wet. Thats kind of annoying, but since I am always careful with it now it works well because its small and portable. I also love this color and the other color options available. Perfect for travel or going to the gym! Or for every day use, really.

These were perfect for my 7 year old and 9 year old. Love them!

Love this little 16oz Nalgene! And made in the USA :)
