Product Description
Stay hydrated anytime, anywhere. Easy to use, easy to carry, and easy to clean, CamelBak has bottled the perfect hydration system.
Amazon.com
The CamelBak Better Bottle represents a new standard of performance and convenience in re-usable water bottles. Available in multiple colors and sizes, this innovative bottle is also BPA- and Phthalate-free. The bottle's integrated handle makes it easy to carry with the crook of a finger or clip to a backpack with a carabiner. The cap fits most other bottles and the Better Bottle attaches to most water filters and fits in most cup holders. It's dishwasher safe. What is BPA?
Bisphenol-A is an ingredient used to make polycarbonate. In recent months, there has been increasing consumer demand for a bottle that is not made with Bisphenol-A (BPA), and CamelBak is proud to introduce BPA-free bottles with the same great properties customers have come to expect from polycarbonate: vibrant color, clarity, durability, dishwasher-safe, and with no residual taste. As of the end of April 2008, the entire CamelBak bottle line will be available in BPA-Free materials in North America. What are phthalates?
Phthalates (pronounced thal-ates) are a component added to some plastics to make them soft and pliable. None of CamelBak's bottles have ever contained phthalates. What is the BPA-free Better Bottle made from?
The CamelBak Better Bottle line is made from a new copolyester polymer called Tritan, made by Eastman. It offers the same great qualities that we have come to expect from polycarbonate bottles and is 100 percent BPA-Free. The Big Bite Valve is made of medical-grade silicone for long life and taste-free performance. About CamelBak
CamelBak is the originator and world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular among mountain bikers and motocross riders, because it allowed them to drink without taking their hands off of the handlebars in technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and performed better when they wore a CamelBak. Since then, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities use CamelBak hydration systems for their convenience and performance benefits. In addition to cycling, CamelBak has Hands-Free Hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak’s state-of-the-art packs and hydration systems have benefited athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world. While CamelBak has grown tremendously since the early days, one thing hasn't changed: CamelBak still believes in the performance advantage that proper hydration delivers for just about any activity. The privately-held company is headquartered in Petaluma, California.

 Pricey for sure, but worth it... January 29, 2009

...if you are a regular and massive water drinker like me. I carry water around with me all day and drink easily a gallon per day, so I figured that investing in a BPA-Free container makes a lot of sense in the long run.
Also the construction and materials of these bottles is top-notch. Very sturdy, and the plastic they use for the lid is both visually and tactilely pleasant. Where the lid screws onto the bottle, it seems to be slightly softer so it's quite leakproof and you don't have to twist it super tight for it to prevent leakage like you do with some cheaper bottles.
The shape is perfect for fitting into the mesh water-bottle side pockets of my backpacks, a SwissGear laptop pack and a Jansport daypack. One liter ties me over for a good 2-3 hours. I use one of these bottles for water, and another one for Gatorade whenever I go to the gym.
The plastic loop in the lid is great for carrying with one finger or clipping onto a strap on your backpack; it also helps you twist to open the lid. Pretty smart design!
Overall, this is one product that DOES live up to the "You get what you pay for" cliche.
* CLEANING TIP: All you need to do is clean with hot water and add a drop or two of bleach to it, then rinse. I only have to do that maybe once every 2-3 weeks, and I use my bottle every day just about. Most of the time just a simple rinse in warm water will do, but the odor develops over time due to growth of the bacteria in the backwash that happens every time you drink from it---if you pour the water out of the bottle into a glass instead of drinking directly from the bottle, I'd imagine you wouldn't have any odor issues.
Good BPA free bottle June 16, 2008

This bottle is what you would expect; holds enough water for a day at the office or a light day on the trails. It's a bit too big for car cupholders, which was not unexpected but a shame nonetheless. If you are looking for a BPA free bottle this is a great, cheaper option.
Really nicely designed lids! December 17, 2008

Nice job Camelbak! Great packaging. Camelbak wraps each bottle in a clear plastic protective sheet that both protects the product and eliminates problems with those annoying sticky product labels that are often so difficult to remove. The best part of the bottles are the lids. Just stick your index finger into the hole that also serves as a carabineer hook and spin the lid on and off. Best lid that I have ever used. Really easy and fast to open and close. The one liter bottle is too tall for my dishwasher top rack which is where Camelbak says the bottle must be placed. Buy these bottles for the nifty lids. Oh... and no BPA!
great product December 16, 2008

I love this water bottle and got one for everybody for Christmas. I drink water out of it all day then go to the gym and mix my protein shake in it. It definitley gets used every day and I can rest at ease that I am not consuming dreaded BPA and pthalates.
Great bottle for everyday use October 4, 2008

I bought this bottle to replace a Nalgene bottle which was not BPA-free. I purchased the 0.5 liter bottle with classic cap and I take it to work every day. It fits in my lunch bag as well as the cup holder in my car and I have not experienced any leaks. I've been using this bottle for about a month now and I've been pleased with it so far.
