Owala Freesip Stainless Thermal Bottle 24oz

Functional and eye catching

I didn’t want to like this water bottle. I’ve had the same name brand stainless steel flip top lid for 5 years. I was convinced nothing could replace it- especially another trendy item that flooded my Instagram feed. But after giving it a shot, I have to say… it’s kind of genius. The built-in straw makes sipping easy, but when I want a bigger gulp, I can just tilt it back—no awkward lid unscrewing. It actually keeps water cold for hours, the leak-proof design holds up, and even the flip-top lid, which I thought would be clunky, is oddly satisfying to use. With 2 sizes and multiple color combinations, there’s something for everyone. I wanted to roll my eyes at the hype, but now? Owala is my new emotional support water bottle, and I’ve officially retired the other to my kids. Read Review

High-end pick
Fellow Carter Carry Tumbler 20oz

A perfect gift for your favorite crew

At first glance we thought the splash guard was for infusing tea in the water- apparently a common mistake. It’s actually there to prevent a torrent of liquid from slapping you in the face and dribbling down your chin- and it’s genius! Gone are the days of playing teeter totter with your water, just twist open the top and tilt back. We loved the sleek, minimal design and range of colors (10!). We appreciated the ceramic coating on the inside to preserve pure taste. If we could get nitpicky (and we are) we would love a silent twist off top. Read Review

CORKCICLE Sport Canteen Soft Touch 32oz

Stays cool even when it’s hot

We never thought of a water bottle being soft to the touch, but we were enchanted by how soft this one is. Surprisingly durable, this water bottle had no problem being tossed around in my gym bag with nary a leak or scuff. It kept the water ice cold during some intense hot yoga sessions with its triple insulated design. It’s a little more costly than some of our other options, but this water bottle will outperform its competition for a permanent spot in daily use. The large capacity only comes in 2 colors, but the smaller 20oz offers a few more options. Read Review

Klean Kanteen Eco TKWide Twist Cap 20oz

Planet + People + Water

This water bottle managed to check so many boxes we didn’t even know we wanted; twist top lid that hides the straw, slender enough to fit in a standard cup holder in the car, and a comfortable carry handle to trek your water with you anywhere. This bottle is made from high-quality, BPA-free stainless steel (bonus points for a stainless steel straw, too). Plus, Klean Kanteen is all about eco-friendly materials, production methods, and a giveback program, so you’re making a solid choice for both your hydration and the planet. Due to the twisting hidden straw, it was a little more challenging to klean (see what we did there?), but the other features make it worth the time. Read Review

Fellow Carter Move Mug 16oz

A little bit of everything

This one really does it all. It keeps coffee hot for hours, has a splash guard for spill free sipping, and offers interchangeable lids across sizes. We loved the ceramic lined interior, which keeps coffee tasting pure without that metallic flavor you can get from stainless steel. The perfectly contoured rim was another standout, making every sip feel just right. It’s a little bit of everything we were looking for in a coffee tumbler. I thought the splash guard was for tea, then I thought it was silly, until I used it. I was walking and sipping like I didn't have to worry about too much coffee diving straight into my face, or that weird back splash you get when you're tilting it back down.

Coffee purest pick
Elemental Artisan Tumbler 12oz

Pure coffee taste

If coffee flavor is your top priority, this is the one for you. The ceramic interior and lid keep your coffee tasting pure, with no plastic or stainless steel touching your drink. The silicone plug worked great in the car cup holder, though we wouldn’t trust it loose in a bag. The tumbler is dishwasher safe, while the lid is best hand-washed to preserve the finish.

Stanley Everyday Camp Cup 12oz

Classic style, everyday use

From the moment we pulled this tumbler out of the box, we knew we loved it. The textured, smooth finish feels great in your hand, and of course, it comes from Stanley, a brand that continues to outrank nearly every other drinkware brand in popularity. The 12 oz. size might not be for those who drink coffee by the gallon, but we loved savoring a doppio in this perfectly sized tumbler. Almost perfect, anyway. The one drawback is that Stanley recommends hand washing.

Simple Modern Iced Clarity Cup 20oz

Iced coffee sidekick

This one isn’t for the person who takes all day to finish their iced coffee. It’s for anyone who loves the look and feel of a classic glass tumbler, with the added bonus of a silicone sleeve to keep it from slipping out of your hands and ending up on the floor. Ask me how I know. We loved the simple, sleek design, and the fact that it’s dishwasher safe. It also fits perfectly in the notoriously undersized cupholder of a Subaru, which is a win in our book.

Budget pick
Thor Copper Vacuum Insulated Water Bottle 22oz

Surprisingly affordable, impressive quality

We could show you $5 water bottle options all day long, but would you customer keep that item? Probably not. In an effort to keep your cobranded merch out of the landfill, we set our sights on a higher quality, lower cost option that you would be proud to give. The Thor water bottle is made with double insulated stainless steel with copper- which was a surprise given the price tag. It’s basic in its design, but that’s where the value is. We liked the simplicity, the powder coated finish, and the overall quality. Aside from it being a little smaller in capacity, there wasn’t much we would change about this. Read Review

Ocean Bottle Brew Peak 20oz

A bottle that gives back

We weren’t convinced this would be the easiest bottle to clean- until we realized the lid separates into two pieces, making it surprisingly easy to clean. We also loved the 360° drinking spout- you’re never hunting around for the “right” spot to sip. The secure seal means you can toss it in your backpack without worrying about leaks. Ocean Bottle’s thoughtful design is matched by its mission: every bottle purchased funds the collection of 25 lbs. of plastic. Available in 12 oz. and 20 oz. It only comes in a couple colors, but this one was worth every penny.
