New Wave Enviro Iconic 1 Gallon Round BPA Free Water Bottle with Stainless Steel Cap and Integrated Handle, Ideal for Gym and Outdoor Life, Blue

I had a New Wave Enviro 2.2 Liter water bottle that I got from Bodybuilding.com, and have been using that for a couple of years. I've dropped it a few times and it was able to stand the impact. Until just recently. I actually dropped it from about chest high, and it was a full bottle. It cracked at the bottom, but just a slight crack to where it dripped. I was bummed about that because that bottle lasted so long. So I decided to replace it and was happy to find it from Amazon Prime one day shipping. I purchased one for myself, and one for my wife. I cleaned both when receiving them the next day to test the seal. Both were perfect and just the same as the BB.com one I purchased. The build quality felt the same and the o-ring seal in the cap looked the same. There was no leak on either of the bottles I received. I really like the size of this jug. Not too small, and not too big. I use it every day for work, the gym, and for daily hydration for days off. I think that this bottle is great. I have a lot of other water bottles that I have used in the past, just sitting in a box somewhere. This bottle has fit me really well.

When you’re lifting hard and heavy, you need this at the gym! It’s boss! Stainless steel, cap rugged construction! Also, when I go to work, I’ll take this. Do keep in mind it is not insulated! So it’s not gonna keep anything cold, but I drink more than a a gallon easy peezy!

I have bought at least 10 of these in the past few years cause they're great quality, are great for hiking or taking to work and lasts for months after several refills, eventually I do have to recycle them but no complaints and I'm always happy.

I just purchased my second one of these bottles, and the second one I bought happened to please me a bit more than the first. I did notice that with the first bottle I bought, there were very minor subtle differences in the inside of the cap and how it sealed shut. It just feels different, I don't know how to describe it. I can tell you that the new bottle had a plastic pin on the top holding the strap in and the old one had a metal pin on the cap similar to the cap itself, and the plastic piece on the bottom of my strap of the new bottle was a tiny bit warped so the strap does not spin as freely, which I actually prefer. MOST IMPORTANTLY, the NEW bottle did NOT leak. Closing it tightly without a drop leaking from it is effortless on this new bottle. With the old bottle no matter how tight or not I made the cap, it leaked a bit from day one. New bottle never leaked. Bottom line: Some of these bottles may come built better than others, and those who claim they don't leak got lucky, those who claim they do leak, they're not doing anything wrong. Even when the bottle does leak from the cap, that can be prevented by simply not filling it up to the cap and making sure it does not sit for a while tilted enough to the point that water touches the top of the cap. When mine did leak, it was a very, very small leak.. We're talkin a drop every few minutes or so. This of course was only my personal experience with two of these bottles, other bottles may vary I'm sure, but of my first two both were easy to live with, this new one seems to be a keeper. My first bottle lasted me a good 6 months to a year of daily use before I accidentally cracked it by dropping it (and I had dropped it many times prior to it cracking) It is fairly sturdy and won't crack easily like some really cheap ones I've seen, but it is thin enough that it's fairly light in weight and will crack if you try hard enough.

I bought this thinking I was getting a cutting-edge hydration device. Turns out—it’s just a big plastic bottle. But what a majestic plastic bottle it is. It holds water like a champ. The handle? Pure luxury. The cap? Tight enough to survive an earthquake. I’ve dropped it, rolled it under my car seat, and even used it as a dumbbell when I skipped the gym—it still looks brand new. If you’re tired of fancy “smart” bottles that judge you for not drinking enough, this one’s for you. No lights, no Bluetooth, no nonsense. Just 2.2 liters of honest, unapologetic hydration. Five stars for being exactly what it claims to be—a bottle that does its one job perfectly.

Not durable at all. Fractured from a 2 foot (max) drop and it shattered. I can buy quality 5 gallon jugs that are actually durable from Fred Meyers that can sustain drops from much higher and with considerably more weight to it and those 5 gallon jugs cost $25. It’s nice to have 1 gallon jugs but at this price and their lack of durability I will no longer buy these.

Perfect fit in a fridge. Be CAREFUL to leave the lid's inner seal attached to the lid, else it will leak. What I did was use a little bit of hot-glue-gun magic between the lid's inner lining and the lid, and voila, stays in perfectly. Annoying that I have to do that on such an expensive bottle though. But, would definitely order again. Love the blue color, this is my "cold water" bottle in the fridge. LOVE IT!

Durable and worth the coin

Been sitting on my desk at work used almost daily for 8 months. No cracking or issues as US reviews suggested. I like that its a huge size that lasts all day, gives a great target for keeping hydrated. Not wasting time back and forward to fill up a small bottle.

Takes care of my daily need. Hydration is life. Highly recommended

These have been super useful. Keep two in the fridge to refill with electrolyte water and they have lasted over a year with no problem. Great price, easy pour, transparent. Would buy again!

Los bidones en si son buenos y robustos. El problema es con las tapas. Yo compre 6 y de ellos 2 no cierran bien y el agua chorrea (no gotea) cuando los inclino. Por eso solamente 4 me sirven para llevar en el coche.

I really enjoyed this water bottle for the time I had it, pretty compact for the amount of water that fits in there, but I've gone through 3 after dropping them accidentally and they tend to explode if full of water. Not really a design flaw, but I unfortunately don't think I'll buy another. Great water bottle regardless!
