- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2024
- A common question that many people ask when buying a reusable water bottle is, will this bottle be safe to drink from every day? It's important to know that your bottles are safe for you and your family to use, so in this video, we are going to take a closer look at seven types of water bottle materials: plastic, stainless steel, glass, aluminum, copper, silicone, and titanium. Our goal is to give you a better understanding of the available options on the market today so you can make the best decision for your situation.
Disclaimer: This video is starting to get a lot of attention! Thanks to everyone for their comments and feedback. Please keep in mind that I'm not a scientist or authority on safety for these materials. I did my best to gather verified information from reliable sources to come up with this review and summarize it for entertainment purposes in this video, but I'm sure there are details I missed. Also, new information and research is always coming out, so eventually this video will become more out-of-date as more research is completed. Please use the information from this review at your own discretion, and I encourage you to research more yourself if you have more questions and concerns. Thank you!

How's that?
How's it going?
Me too
Flavor is unbeatable
On stainless steel if you have coffee stains, vinegar, baking soda, and a bottle brush will get rid of it all. And no your drink will not taste like vinegar
Added problem is micro plastics. The twisting motion of sealing a lid makes micro plastics through friction. It could also happen with rubber. The best sealing method is the old bottles with the wire lever and rubber seal. No twisting motion. The first 316 SS bottle with this seal get's my money.
I’ve wondered about this. But do you know if micro plastics can theoretically be released as long as you have that cap or is there a point, after so much use and washing that the microplastics stop being released? Also wondering bc I’m doing away with plastic single use water bottles, how much better is a plastic cap vs stainless cap? Is it marginal and splitting hairs or truly worth finding stainless?
the amount of micro plastics from our bottle is far from what's polluted our environment and then digested into our system. I'm not saying you're wrong, but if you look at the broader picture it's much more terrifying than just a chipped plastic from our water bottle.
most gaskets are silicone, silicones have much simpler and more resistant (thermally and physically) structure than plastics, they don't work like plastic so no hormonal problems.
The best combination I've ever found is a glass water bottle wrapped with a thick silicone sleeve (plus a stainless steel cap with a silicone seal). Although I've had mine for years and years without issue, I can't seem to find an exact replacement anymore. Hopefully I don't need to
Specifically, I prefer ceramic bottlees with silicone sleeves. None of those metallic or silicone aftertaste and you can accidentally drop those at a reasonable height without worrying about it breaking.
@@wahidpawana424 Interesting. Though I've never actually seen a ceramic water bottle in the wild.
@RoguePC4U it's super rare, and when there is one, it could hold only the size of a drinking glass with a non-threaded silicone lid. Maybe because most ceremic glass/bottle are handmade. I would pay a premium just to get a decently sized ceramic bottle.
but what about a glass bottle with a copper outer coating surrounded by a vacuum chamber of titanium-aluminum alloy fused to said copper coating, with a stainless steel lid and a silicone seal??
Fantastic video! I found it very informative. Thank you
All I know is that someone has to be crazy to spend $10 and up for a water bottle.
Since the water you put into a bottle for a daily hike really doesn't stay in a hard plastic repurposed iced tea bottle to leech much of anything, I'd save the money that I'd piss away on a water bottle and put it in the bank.
I'm in my 70s and grew up in a house with iron water pipes...then moved to a house with copper water pipes...and have drunk tap water all of my life. I also gardened for a living and drank from hoses daily after letting the water run to clear out the standing water. I'm still alive, very active and have no major health issues.
Nobody should be keeping water in any bottle for longer than a day anyway.
The plastic bottle section of the vid isn't exactly accurate. Tritan/"BPA-free" plastic still leaches chemicals with estrogenic effects on the body. From a 2014 study: "Many unstressed and stressed, PC-replacement-products made from acrylic, polystyrene, polyethersulfone, and Tritan™ resins leached chemicals with EA, including products made for use by babies."
He mentions this in the "rankings" section of the video..
That study you referenced was from a biased source. George D Bittner owed a plastic company that made "EA free plastics" based on his definition of EA free. But his company lost a lawsuit after fasely claiming that Tritian had EA.
Tritan is different from other BPA free plastics as it doesn't have BPS & other BPA equivalents.
All Plastic bottles have micro plastic on in it, Bpa's are just the tip of the iceberg even "Tritan"
Bpa's are just the tip of the iceberg, microplastics and Tritan can somehow or possibly cause cancer when exposed to too much sunlight, UV rays , microwaves
growth of the cancer cells from the Tritan extract occurred after the plastic was exposed to the stressed state of simulated sunlight. Only one out of three Tritan products showed estrogen activity in an unstressed state, for instance when they weren't exposed to microwaving, heat, or UV rays.
Yes, BPS and BPF are substituted for BPA, and they’re nearly identical.
What a great video thanks!
Thanks a lot for this type of informative video!
this is one of the best videos I have seen! Thank you
Awesome, glad to hear it helped!
I suspect that the most significant contaminants are those produced by friction between the bottle and cap. I have not yet seen a design that avoids the microscopic scraping of material from (usually a plastic) lid. A clamp system with a natural rubber seal would be my preferred option, but nobody makes one as far as I am aware.
You just blew my mind. And you just came up with a good idea for a product.
Very informative! Thank you for this video
Glad it was helpful!
This was well done and helpful.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this information.
Thank you for sharing! What do you think about the material ceramic like Sttoke cup?
Thanks mate I appreciate the video
Great info, I don't just subscribe anyone and subscribed to you, so that means something. Very informative, keep it up!
Awesome, thanks for the comment and for subscribing!
I started using Kleen Kanteen bottles about 15 years ago, and have never had a single bad experience. I prefer non-insulated/single wall, because I do sometimes put my bottles in a fire to boil the water. while the fallacy that insulated bottles will "Explode" if you put them in a fire seems to have it's own life, and just won't die. the insulated walls WILL expand, and seams will rupture. not explode, but open the seams to basically ruin the bottle. I don't like plastic ( I have used Nalgene, but don't like them) because not only can you not boil water in them, but if they fall in the wrong way, or on the wrong surface they can crack. this is counter productive in wilderness environments. this is also why I won't have a glass bottle. I have seen Nalgene, and similar bottles break and they always do it at the worst time. several of my Kleen Kanteen bottles have multiple dents, and carbon "burn in" but they work perfectly. As to the "health benefit" claims form ANY product sales company. I don't believe anything I hear/read out of hand. Unless I can find actual credible research, I just don't buy it.
Very good comment, and all good points. I'm planning a video or series later this year to seriously look at some hydration and bottle myths like hydrogen water and structured water. I'm personally skeptical whenever someone claims massive, hard-to-prove benefits like that, so it could be worth a deep dive given all the claims by companies and listing on Amazon. And I hadn't heard about the exploding vacuum bottle myth. Might be worth a video fo its own by doing insulation tests before and after boiling.
Thanks for the info.😎
No problem 👍
This is a great content !!❤
yes
Nice, very informative.
Makes sense glass is the best. It’s used in the scientific field all the time because it can hold almost any chemical and has been around for a long time. I’m surprised silicone really has no downsides, but that’s a good thing if we’re looking for plastic bottle replacements.
The problems with plastics stem from the fact that they are basically carbon chain molecules - the same as proteins and other bioactive components of human body, which means they often interact with it in unforeseen way, like that estrogen mimicking situation video mentioned. Silicone on the other hand is inorganic chain molecule and thus do not have a potential to influence us in such way.
glass is literally goated, i use milton or borosil(brand started by corning and indian scientist) bottles, they are surprisingly strong, one time my friends were doubting its durablity and saying plastics are durable, since then my bottles have fallen many times without any damage, but one of the friends dropped his plastic bottle mid conversation and it broke, spilling water everywhere i found that quite funny.
Could you suggest one of borosil's (or milton's) glass bottle?
It would really help!
@@theqrent really, every one of their bottles are good, just check is they are listed as borosilicate. otherwise they are all same, just different design.
thank you 🤛🏽
Thanks for the great video.
Thank you, best comparison video. Been looking to buy a titanium water bottle, but the price is so expensive. 😢
Great job 👍
Interesting video. I'm a big fan of my stainless steel water bottles, I just wish they didn't get marked up so bad when I drop them. Guess it's better than glass breaking all the time!
Thanks for the comment! You could try a protective sleeve for your stainless steel bottle. They can definitely help.
I've dropped a glass bottle I've had for years a number of times and it didn't break
Thanks for sharing! Many bottles have stainless steel and plastic for the straw part of the bottle. Kinda hard to find one suitable solution.
So true! We talk a lot about options to avoid plastic, but it's usually part of a larger video like it was for this one. Might be helpful for people to have a video where the sole focus is 100% plastic-free options, so that's something we have in the works.
Try Klean Kanteen "TK pro" and "TK wide" series. They are plastic free.
Most needed video, tnx.
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for this! im kind of curious, though, there's this growing trend with ceramic coated bottles that claims to be better in removing unwanted tastes. curious on your thoughts on it
Great video
Awesome thanks
No problem!
No wonder the water tasted better when I used a glass container before. Can't believe I'll be changing all my water bottles to glass now haha
What is your opinion on tar lined stone amphora?
Hello, Tritan is not new it was found in 2007 and I don't think there are any concerns about it.
what is the other material that is found in the cap of the steel bottle which is not steel ? it is possibly used for having a sealing between the bottle and cap ? is it safe ?
Just 3 hours ago I ordered that brush you recommended…but just the main brush. Now I have to order the lid cleaner separately!😫
What about using alcohol bottles after proper cleaning instead of buying such expensive bottles?
Ooh a face reveal! Thank you for the content.
Yea, I successfully avoided it for a long time but thought it was time to try something new!
Smartwater bottle is #1 hiker pick (used over and over until lid breaks). Hoping that benefits from fresh air and exercise offset negatives of plastic.
This was super helpful. Thank you for sharing!! I have been using plastic bottles etc.. and I DO NOT want to use them anymore so it sounds like glass is a great option. (What are your thoughts about the Stanley Stainless Steel bottles) ? I see them all over.
Skip. They leak.
Edit: Also, Stanley has lead.

Is bottles which have the number 7 BPA free?
What about ceramic coated bottles?
I only use glass with stainless steel or glass lids. I figure that glass is recyclable so best for environment
I have 2 aluminium insulated bottles (or are they stainless steal?🤔 don't remember, too many years passed already😅) for carring with me, a glass one at my bedside table and a plastic one to carry around the house😅
I like my copper water bottle but I only drink out of it a maximum of one bottle per day then I switch to something else like glass. I feel I get some benefit from the copper that way.
What about brass/bronze?
How about ceramic?
well , my family has been using a copper jar to store drinking water for day to day use , for decades now , and there has been no health issues or any special health benefit , its just normal... but when I purchased a modern copper bottle and started using it , I did noticed the colour of my pee becoming much more darker which was not a good sign and hence I stopped using the bottle, one difference i have noticed in the Jar and the bottle i bought was , the jar use to get accumulated with greenish-blue colour in after like 1 or 2 month and my mom would thus clean it with lemon and salt once a month . but with the copper bottle it never happened . this makes me think how authentic the copper bottles in the market really are, or do they add additional layers/chemicals to the bottle.
Thanks for posting this comment. I admit I may have discounted copper more that I should have in this video, and I did that after reading some listings that promised way more benefits than seemed possible. Copper can certainly leach, but there are a lot of factors that play into that like the pH of the liquid, how long the drink is stored, how well the bottle is maintained (like what your mom did), and like you mentioned, it's unlikely that all copper bottles are created or manufactured with the same quality. I haven't seen the same kind of possibly issues or questions with glass or stainless steel, so I'd lean towards those materials personally. But I'm sure I have more to learn about copper bottles, and there are probably more situations where it makes more sense to use than I originally considered.
1:20 is that a toilet brush? 😂 That made me chuckle.
Don't mix them up!
Recommend you get to the point and say the recommendations upfront at the beginning of the video and then say if they want more details about the type of bottles that the audience maybe using they should review the rest of the video.... thank you about this very important review.
Thank you for your comment. After I read your comment I fast forward this video to where I want to listen to .
What about CERAMIC coated bottles?
Problem is, manufacturers just went to BPS after BPA was banned. You need phthalate free plastics, and likely even non-phthalate free ones might be contaminated if produced in a place that produced BPA like plastics.
Suggest you test the bottles and probably find a lab that can check the materials used in the bottles.
CamelBak does have a double walled insulated titanium water bottle
What about ceramic water bottles?
Interesting video. But about silicone, I have bought a silicone ice cube tray/maker, all the ice produced these white stuff when melt into water. Maybe it was some non brand on Amazon, but I’m not trusting any drinking silicone product until proven otherwise.
Thank you for the comment. That sounds disgusting. I'm assuming you washed it well before use, and if the ice was discolored after that then it's definitely a concern. Sounds like a manufacturer issue maybe? If more people have had issues like this, I hope they'll comment so I can have a better idea if this is more common and then update this video if needed.
I experienced this issue with silicone ice cube trays from Tovolo. I threw them out and decided not to purchase any other silicone.
I’ve had this issue with silicone trays too, from multiple manufacturers. Would be useful to have the residue analyzed as it may be a harmless substance like limescale.
I bought a bottle and it's worth it I bought something at searse weights but they closed some searse before I bought a juicer also at searse healthy
Am always confused between stainless steel vs thermosteel? Which one is best to prefer?
My understanding is that thermosteel is just another term for dual-wall vacuum insulated bottles that some companies use for branding/marketing, but I could be wrong. I haven't looked into them much to see if there are actual differences in the material or construction, so hopefully someone can comment below who knows more. If they are different, that could be a cool topic for an insulation test!
Coke from a glass bottle tastes better then from a can.
Coke in a glass bottle is usually sweetened with cane sugar whereas in the can it is usually sweetened with high fructose corn syrup so it's possible that is the difference you are tasting.
My girls and I can not drink out of stainless steel water bottles. Now I know why... we are all allergic to nickel. UGH!
you should have mentioned about pure silver too.
The feel of glass is by far the best but I am sure I will break it sooner or later.
Titanium looks like the best bet as I exclusively use my bottle for drinking water but alas, the price is off the charts
I won't mind stainless steel but it gets dents and usually comes insulated which makes it heavier and bigger for my purposes
All good points. I'm hoping to find a cheaper titanium option at some point because it looks like a really good material, and I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing more bottles made out of it within the next few years. Maybe I'll get one as a celebration when we hopefully get to 1000 subs, haha.
@@bottlepro3252 What about the plastic lid on stainless steel water bottles? Is it somthing to be consired about?
For plastic BPA-free bottles:
1. Did they replace BPA with some other toxic chemical? (Don't know that's why I'm asking).
2. Is the bottle truly BPA-free? Especially in non-Western countries. We see water bottles being advertised as BPA-free but since they are cheap and made in China .. who knows?
BPA free plastic normally means it contains an alternative like BPS that is chemically very similar and has the same problems
Tritan is the most common plastic in bottles now, and it's allegedly free of BPS too from what I read. But I also remember reading that BPS is, like you mentioned, a substitute in other non-tritan plastics like food packaging. Overall, I definitely don't fault someone for avoiding plastics, including tritan, as much as possible since the science seems to be finding out more concerns every few years.
@@bottlepro3252 if it does not have BPS then it probably has BPF. Manufacturers just keep using the next chemical in the family and wait for others to determine if it has any harmful effects.
Choices are very easy. SS or glass.
a lot of which have plastic lids. but drinking from plastic is still better than dehydration
Yea most lids have plastic underneath unfortunately. I have a video coming up in a month or two that'll focus on sharing the bottles I know of that have stainless steel under the lid.
What a great content, what about ceramic water bottles?
Thank you! I'm hoping to cover those later this year.
Similar to glass but probably more heavy and chips. Corningware ceramic glass could be cool. Doesn't exist
I directly drink from pond👍also there is a reason why labs have glasswares
Take a look into the ayurveda medicine about copper.
Most older houses have copper water pipes. Most newer houses have pex, which is a type of plastic. Which is better?
Use a water filter for either.
There is also ceramic bottles
I only use steel and copper bottle.
If I needed to carry water every day I would have at least two bottles and after a single day of use allow it to thoroughly dry upside down. Two bottles allow time for this.
Through-hikers often use smart water bottles for months at a time without ever washing them.
Copper utensils are been used for centuries and cooking, serving food for thousands of years.
if you consume the water from any bottle within 24 hrs how much of a problem can leaching really be?
Hard to say for sure since there are a lot of factors (time, type of drink, the bottle material and what it's leaching, and how full the bottle is). But to me it makes sense to stick to bottles that are shown to leach less in general. From what I've seen, copper and plastic seem to have more concerns than the others.
Bpa's are just the tip of the iceberg, microplastics are seen in most plastic containers while Tritan (trademark) -
growth of the cancer cells from the Tritan extract occurred after the plastic was exposed to the stressed state of simulated sunlight. Only one out of three Tritan products showed estrogen activity in an unstressed state, for instance when they weren't exposed to microwaving, heat, or UV rays.
If glass weren't so "fragile" i'll choose it all day
Microplastics are one of the biggest stories to follow moving forward imo
Why are the lids and bottles made of plastic when research is showing how much plastic humans ingest from plastic water bottles? Especially the lids, as these screw tops shed heaps of microscopic plastic bits from the surfaces rubbing together. Steel tops would be a lot better.
It’s cheap
@@Luca-mc2fbexactly. cheap. maximizing profit.
Kinda practical…what’s the alternative?
@@tebellomekeleli5314 As I said originally, steel on steel screw tops would be better.
Copper is best
The choice of bottles is a bit flawed, if you think about where the water comes from. If you have drinkable tap water, your water will be in contact with pipes a long time as well and you cannot avoid that. If you run it through a filter, you need to make sure it isn't breeding bacteria in the filters what can often happen. So in the end, how much better did you really make the water quality situation? And does it really have a measurable impact. Also, your body should come in contact with bacteria anyway or your immune system will have no training, which is why it's not recommended to use hand sanitizers all the time, as some paranoid people do - not realizing they are harming themselves rather than doing something good. It's all a double edged sword.
Very good comment. There's almost always more to any story, and water quality is a big factor I didn't discuss here. Aging water infrastructure, microplastics, and PFAS are each huge stories that affect most people nowadays regardless of which bottles they use. I've started posting more about topics like these and hope to post more soon. PFAS in particular is a major issue where I live (one of the highest rates of groundwater contamination in the country). But when your drinking water supply is a fixed variable, controlling what you can by deciding which bottle to get can have an impact.
you havent talked about mud water bottles, which are the best material to store water
Like clay tumblers? My understanding is that as long as they are fired with food-safe glaze, then they should be OK. But unfired clay and certain glazes might not be food safe, for example it could leach iron out of certain clays that have high iron content. I haven't looked into it much yet though, so correct me if I'm wrong.
Bacteria and mold are probably the biggest issue. Cleaning your water bottle thoroughly and regularly is the best defense. Some bottles have too many books and crannies for microbes to hide.
Note: Plastic anything that states BPA free is near certain to have BPS in them - just as bad
I am from india in our tradition historicaly before muslim and Christian came to india we used as main material for bottles. Even now
But we never felt any abdominal pain , dizziness etc
Thank you for the comment. I'm amazed at how much of a response this video has been getting recently, and from responses like yours I'm learning more about how copper bottles are used more in other regions. I'd like to do another video that focuses more on copper, both to educate myself more about it and also to give a more well-rounded video about that material in particular.
@@bottlepro3252i will wait for a video on copper water bottles.
Copper jugs, glasses and containers for holding water are common in india~
You can research more about copper. Your information about seems incomplete. Moderation is the key with copper.
Traditionally, gold, silver and copper metals are used as drinking vessel and it's good absorb them on regular basis in correct quantity.
But great video thanks.
Thanks for the comment. I've been hearing from a few people about copper. The Washington Dept of Health link I referenced mentioned how it's essential in diets so I agree about having the right amount and moderation is key. But having said that, it did seem like a lot of the copper bottle brands I saw on Amazon though were promising way more benefits than what proper copper intake might provide, so I didn't feel comfortable recommending them.
What are your views on copper providing Ayurvedic benefits?
I need to look into it more honestly. My background is in mining, and knowing what happens in that industry with copper leaching and water contamination is a big reasons why I was so against copper in this video. But I'm learning more from responses to this video, especially in other cultures. I'm sure the quality of the manufactured copper bottle and how you maintain and use it can prevent many safety risks. On Ayurvedic benefits, my normal inclination to anything that promises so many wide-ranging benefits that are difficult to prove like the copper bottle listings I saw on Amazon is to be skeptical, but I'm hoping to do a followup video that focuses more on topics like this.
@@bottlepro3252 Perfect answer! Thank you.
you dismissed single use plastic bottles but these can be refilled and reused many times and can last for years. but I dont know if this is safe to do so.
Yea, I suppose you could technically refill single-use ones. It'd be better than treating them like single-use, and it'd for sure be less expensive than buying a dual-wall SS bottle. I'm not as familiar with the plastic on those though, like PET.
How did people carry water before plastics took over?
I didn't listen to this whole video but I caught him saying that you shouldn't use copper bottles. I'm not sure about other countries but in our country most are water pipes are copper 🤦
Copying some text and the link from the Washington Dept of Health in case you missed that link and want to check it out.
"In Washington, most copper in drinking water comes from corrosion of household plumbing...Copper from plumbing corrosion can accumulate overnight. Flushing the water from the tap for 30 to 45 seconds can reduce the copper that can accumulate when the household plumbing is not in use...Copper is an essential mineral in the diet. Too much copper, however, can cause health problems."

I laughed when he said copper is new material used to store water 😂😂😂.......it's been used for meliniums by Eastern civilizations !......also there is specific washing process to be followed for copper bottles. The study he referred to is based on water that passes through rusted pipes, obviously that water will not be good. But if you use a copper bottle and keep it rust free with the specific washing process, you can get immense benefits!

@@giak7525 So is it okay to drink greenish water, is it not toxic?
@vidyavathi3969 you clean it of course.
Which type of bottle material is good for health?
Glass first, steel second. Glass just easier to break
carbon steel rusts VERY easily. I'd be very surprised to find a water bottle made from it
You missed the clay water bottles 😊
Use silver if you're rich
Not talking about hot fluids !
For metal based bottles I would definitely not recommend a cheap one from China, which may contain traces of lead in their alloys, if you are unlucky. That is much worse than using plastics.
Agreed. Sticking with "known" brands is recommended. Very new brands with few reviews would be risky, and the company could disappear easily if issues come up then reappear under a different brand name.
