Review on 🧴 Silbyloyoe Collapsible Silicone Water Bottle with Leak-Proof Valve - 26oz, Lightweight, Anti-Leakage - for Travel, Outdoor Sports, Medical, Food-Grade - Portable & Blue by Adrian Retana

This is a great water bottle! I used it on a 9 day adventure trip in North Africa and it was my personal source of purified water for 95% of the trip. Advantages: DOES NOT LEAK! Very comfortable to wear when walking/hiking hanging from a belt - feels like an extension of the body touching the leg; I was very grateful that it had a clear plastic cap as it kept the mouthpiece clean and free from dust and dirt (of which there was a lot); This cap is very durable - no scratches or cracks when I drop an almost full bottle on the cement right on the cap! Stands upright even when less than 50% full. The bright blue color is easy to spot in storage bins. The wide opening makes filling easier. I didn't notice any chemical aftertaste when using it. CONS: slightly heavier than we would like; not as compact to store as I had hoped; The bottle needs to be de-aerated by hand - simple but an extra step - and essential if you want it to stand upright while you're deflating. The storage folder was constantly torn off when not in use - almost lost several times. Don't drop this bottle on dirty surfaces - everything will stick to the silicone body until you can wash it off. Overall I am very happy that I bought this bottle. I will take it with me on my next trip!
