NalgeneHDPE Wide Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle, 30 Oz

My son loves these bottles. I just purchased him another one. It's not one of those new-fangled water bottles with the fancy technology. Just attractive and practical.

If you’re looking for a basic water bottle that won’t dent or crack this is and has been the best option.

I got this Nalgene bottle in 2018, and it is still going strong to this day. The HDPE plastic is flexible and very durable, so it's unlikely to get damaged by falls or getting crushed. If you know what to expect, you won't be disappointed. Nalgene is still putting out the same quality durable water bottles that they have been since they started.

Love this old school bottle

Fine product!

Its a classic nalgene but its listed as 32oz and its only 30oz. Slightly smaller than a Tritan nalgene. Not a big deal but the listing is wrong

Quick summary - I love it. This HDPE Nalgene is the classic white, translucent plastic from the 90s. Tritan is the very common, clear hard plastic that replaced the Lexan bottles that you see the most today. Check the pros and cons to see if HDPE or Tritan work better for you.Bottom line on top:Get HDPE if: You're using it for water, want to minimize weight and have the best durability.Get Tritan if: You use it for juice/sports drinks/protein shakes, hot liquids, and bottle weight is not a concern.HDPE Pros:+ Absolute winner on weight and drop durability. HDPE is solid, it doesn't squish at all, but it is technically softer than Tritan. The upside to that is that if you drop it, it flexes and won't crack as easily as more rigid Tritan.+ A little bit smaller. Might be a con for some people, but I think it's great. It's just slightly more compact.+ Proven safety. HDPE has been around for decades in lab and food safety and the industry has a ton of data and experience with it. We're really, really sure this plastic is safe. I have no concerns about Tritan either but we don't have as much time with it as HDPE.HDPE Cons:- Slight odor when you first get it. Wash it with warm, soapy water and leave the cap open. The smell will fade and you won't ever notice it again.- Lower melting point. You can put boiling water into this but you'll feel the bottle start to go slightly soft. Tritan has a much higher melting point and stays firm.- Retains more odors than Tritan. If you're mixing sports drinks or protein shakes, those slight odors can linger slightly even after washing. You'll have to use baking soda to get them out. I wouldn't put hot coffee into an HDPE bottle. Tritan isn't perfect but does much better.- More prone to staining. I wouldn't put tomato juice or marinara sauce in HDPE.For folks who want more detailed info on dimensions and weight:Height: HDPE (8 inches), Tritan (8.5 inches)Diameter: HDPE (3.44 inches), Tritan diameter (3.5 inches)Weight with cap (grams): HDPE (110 grams), Tritan (180 grams)

I recently purchased a Nalgene water bottle and I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed with its performance. The bottle is made from high-quality materials and is incredibly durable, so I know it will last for a long time.One of the things I love about this bottle is that it is leak-proof. I can throw it in my bag and not have to worry about any spills or leaks. The wide mouth also makes it easy to add ice or fruit to my water, and it's easy to clean too.The bottle is also very lightweight, so it's perfect for taking on hikes or to the gym. And, the markings on the side make it easy to track my water intake throughout the day.Overall, I am extremely happy with my purchase of the Nalgene water bottle. It's a high-quality product that I know I will be using for years to come. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a durable, leak-proof water bottle.
