Review on Set Of 6 Aquasana Glass Water Bottles With BPA-Free Lids, 18 Oz Each by Michael Pickering

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple and strong—replaces our plastic addiction!

I bought these bottles a few years ago when I went through my juicing phase. In the end, I didn’t stick with juicing (labor intensive. I blend instead), so these bottles ended up stored in their box on the shelf, pretty much forgotten. What a shame.A few months ago, I found the box and on a whim, decided to fill all six bottles with water and stick them in the fridge. We have four teens at home and I’ve been pretty firm about not buying plastic water bottles, but they like the convenience of just grabbing a bottle from the fridge. Also, we live in a very warm climate and after a few people pour a glass of water from the fridge, the water is no longer cold because the water in the pipes is lukewarm. This is the main reason the kids reach for bottled water when we have it—bottled water is fast and cold.It took the kids a day to find the bottles."Can we just use these? Or is it for some project?”"Sure. Just put them by the sink when you’re done. I don’t want to find them under your bed.”And just like that, we started using these bottles. I put them all in the dishwasher in the evening and fill them when they’re clean. The teens LOVE them because they can just grab ice cold water on the run, and they hold up very well. I just ordered another six to keep up with the kid demand, in fact.They are simple, pretty bottles—also, very sturdy and we haven’t broken any yet. Exactly what we needed to help kick the plastic bottle habit.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoor Recreation Accessories
Cons
  • The bottles may be fragile and may require more careful handling and storage than other types of water bottles
