32-Ounce Nalgene Wide Mouth Canteen - Durable & Leakproof Water Bottle Review

I use good quality plastic bottles for my "night” bottles. If you’re in your late 50s like me, you know what kind of bottle that is.I bought this collapsible bottle to use for travel purposes, for the same reason. It won’t take up any room when traveling.It’s brilliant. What can I say. I recommend this bottle for old dudes. Carry on….

Flight attendant and husband is a pilot. We carry food bags that hold many days of food so we can eat healthy on the road. Putting ice in this every day keeps food bag cool, and we no longer waste gallon bags or first aid head bags.

I purchased this in June for a Fall backpacking trip and did not use it for a several months. On the first day that I used it on a three-night backpacking trip it had a slow leak somewhere on the seam near the bottom. It is too late to return it so all I can do is leave a review to let others know not to purchase this product.

I would return this but didn't get back from our backpack trip until the day after the return item window closed.I gave it 2 stars since before it started leaking I really liked it, but after the leak who wants water leaking over your backpack! Also, since I am not the only report of a leak from this area it seems to be a design flaw/weakness. I do not recommend this product.Update: I contacted Nalgene about warranty replacement. I just got an email confirming they are sending me a replacement.

I needed a pee bottle for my mountaineering trip, and this style was recommended by the guides due to its light weight and compactability. I thankfully only had to use it once at night, but it did the trick (and didn't leak as stated in other reviews.whew!). The materials do seem like they could crack or tear after being folded and unfolded multiple times, so I wouldn't rely on this for extended use. I'm a woman and the wide mouth of the bottle and a little practice meant I didn't need to carry

If your cutting down weight in a pack for hiking, this could be useful besides a camelbak pouch. the mouth is a bit bigger than I expected, not crazily hard or anything, you just have to stop walking to take a drink. I wouldve gone with the small mouth if i could go back. Ill continue to use it though, fits in a side pocket of my bag real easy.

So far I've only used this item to store the remains of a milk carton so I could squeeze the air out and not worry that the mild would spoil too soon. It does work, but it's a bit tricky to squeeze out all the air and not spill some milk. It's also a bit tedious to clean, but still worth the cost and the effort.

Used this as a pee bottle for mountaineering. My tent blew away on rocky terrain one day and super super thankful nothing leaked/spilled. Larger cap mouth great for women field use.

I typically carry platypus collapsible bottles and have logged hundreds of miles on them. I used this on 2 hikes, and on the second time out with it, i reach into my pack for my insulation layers and find them soaking wet, as this bottle is leaking at the seam near the bottom. My hunting partner had this exact same failure mode on his bottle while deep in the back country. Skip the nalgene and buy platypus. Only reason i tried this is because my water filter has a "nalgene" size adapter. Its…

For holding water on a hike, I use Platypus bottles. They're as light as can be, and when empty they fold down to almost nothing. This Nalgene bottle can't do that because of the wide lid, but the wide lid is why I bought it. It's the bottle I use to scoop up water from streams while backpacking. I put a piece of cheesecloth over the mouth and can fill the bottle by drawing it through even a shallow stream. That can't be done with the small-mouthed Platypus bottles. If I'm hiking where I expect

I ordered this for backpacking. It's great. Even when full it molds to fit just about anywhere. I've read some reviews about rips and tears. It's made of thin light weight plastic. So use common sense and don't toss it around or let it slide down the rocks. Great buy and I plan on adding another to my pack.

I used this nalgene bottle on a recent hiking trip, with the hopes of being able to hang from a carabiner off my bag. After one day, the 'O-ring' that holds the lid to the bottle slipped off the bottle, despite being no more than half full of liquid. After replacing it, it remained loose and slid off, often with no liquid in it.Whereas regular nalgene bottles clip on to bags easily, this one does not accomplish the same function. I wouldn't buy as a result.Ideally, I'd like to be contacted to…
