I made fun of my sister almost a decade ago for spending so much on a water bottle when we had plenty of free reusable bottles from 5ks and summer camps and whatnot. This was in a parking lot in Hawaii before we did an hourslong hike and left our water bottles in the car. When we got back, out of the 5 people in my family, I bought in. Her water was ice cold and mine was hot and less refreshing. I bought a hydro flask less than a month later and still love it. I definitely prefer the ethics of klean kanteen, which I had never heard of at the time. While KK is probably the best overall choice, I'm always happy to see anyone rocking any reusable bottle instead of the alternative.

Honestly, I didnt get the hype behind hydroflasks bc i was perfectly fine using my Yeti Cup Alternatives like RTIC, Yukon Outfitters, and the Walmart brand Ozark Trail bc all i wanted was refreshingly cold water. That is, until i found out they had a wide mouth lid you can disassemble (the one with the silicone gasket) so you can thoroughly clean it. Ive always wondered why brands like contigo whos been making reusable bottles for years hasnt done so yet! Hydro did it right. To be fair though, i still feel my tumblers keep my water colder for longer periods but the hydroflask wide mouth lid comes with that really useful handle too.

I will say, when I was in uni, I absolutely cared about my hot drink of choice still being hot when I was on the train on my way home after making it to uni at 8 and getting on the train back 12 hours later. That was a life saver during winter and opening my thermos to drink hot coffee or tea on the way home felt like the greatest treat I could give myself on those days. So I do think there is a real application for a drink container that keeps your drink at the desired temperature for 12+ hours, especially for people that have long work or studying days and don't want to spend extra money on hot or cold beverages on their commute.

I got my 40oz hydroflask from the local dumpster when helping a friend move in. It had a few chips and tiny dings but it was TOTALLY FUNCTIONAL.

I got my daughter a Hydro Flask several years ago, she’s been using it daily since the start of Covid and many times prior to, and it’s still in pristine condition. Even the paint, it’s a limited edition rainbow color, is still perfect.

I purchased a steel insulated water bottle that I found keeps my water cold for 2 days before starting to warm up to room temp. I have to say that I found it in the thrift store for $3 bucks. I found another in Tuesday Mornings for $5 bucks. Works great because I like my water as cold as I can get it. One day while in Tuesday Mornings I saw this wine bag with a bottle opener to insulate and transport your bottle of wine. It even has a strap for carrying. I then found that it fit my water bottle and it insulated the bottle even more. Now my bottle keeps my water cold for a longer period of time and it's easier to carry. I don't know what I will do with the knife and wine cork removal tool that is neatly attached to the side of the bag, guess I will save it for bears that attack on the trail.

Have the 20oz one and it fits perfectly in my Fjall Raven Greenland 30L back pack. I really love the size and the fact that you can get different lids. I have one for the house and another for external activities. The best is when you wake up and your water is still cold. Surprises me everytime. They're also super easy to clean. Anyway, I recommend it!

I studied abroad for a semester in Arizona from Greece. When I got there an old friend wanted to help me get acclimated to the US lifestyle. The first two things we went out to buy the first day was a US phone number and a Hydroflask since she noticed I didn’t have a reusable water bottle. She gave me the choice of a Yeti if I wanted to pay extra but I really liked the design of the flask.

Honestly their straw design is the best I've seen and that's why I bought mine. It's super easy to clean and doesn't leak easily. I had a couple of plastic water bottles before this but wanted to get a metal one because plastic tastes and smells weird after a while.

I live in Bend, Oregon and met Travis Rosbach a year after he sold hydro flask. Travis is a wonderful person and started a very legit company. He used to be an airline pilot hence the name captain and was super overworked and hated his life. Him and his buddy realized the problem with bottled water and came up with the idea. They then got Chinese manufacturers to produce hydro flasks and eventually struck a deal with Costco. Travis is very intelligent and is a good role model for young entrepreneurs. He is also a really nice guy.

I was thinking of buying a hydro flask given how my hitch bottle is now taking more than 3 years to be sent to me.

I'm glad I watched this because the most impactful information was that KK has proper credentials... thank you

I bought one in 2014. I was frequently working in the desert where my black hydroflask would be sitting out in the sun while it's 120 degrees out. I still have it today, chips dents and all. It keeps water cold, maybe not as well as a newer bottle, but whatever, I'm happy with the purchase. Glad you mentioned the size not fitting in backpack bottle holders. I don't carry mine around as much nowadays for this reason. When I'd be working outside, I would just clip the hydroflask to my backpack with a carabiner. I don't need to have that much cold water with me now so I just stick with a smaller and cheaper bottle for everyday drinking.

i remember my friend in highschool had a hydroflask and her water would still have ice in it at the end of the day, i was SHOCKED like what on earth is this technology. i got a random water bottle and it does the same thing. half the price

For me back in high school, I was just a bit surprised to see the next few days, you'll start seeing students carrying a hydro flask

I discovered Hydro flask about 12 years ago when they were in Oregon. I was at a festival and spoke to the rep who told me there claims and I called BS on that. He said if you buy one today and and it doesn’t work while using it over the festival weekend, bring it back and he will give me my money back. I saw him the next day and bought another one. I was so impressed. Today I own ten, which I purchased over the years. AND…they will give you a new one if it stops working or becomes defective. All you do is pay for shipping. So yeah…love hydro.

Guess I’ve been living under a rock, I’d never heard of hydro flask 😳. If my current water bottle ever fails I have my heart set on a klean kanteen! It’s been sitting on my wish list for a few years.

I bought one of these years ago and it was super exciting to find it at a random local golf store in my small town. These days, I've switched to simple modern. Extremely affordable in comparison but literally the exact same product - with colors and patterns I prefer much more. And now I will never buy any again lol.

I had a 24 oz skinny yellow hydroflask bottle for about 3 years but I recently lost it on an international trip. It’s been 2 weeks and I gave in and bought a new one. I had a different free metal water bottle and using it was so awful. The bottle just grew on me and idk if I can go back.

I never knew how popular hydroflask was, I thought it was just another random brand in the outdoor shops. I was only aware of Nalgene as a popular bottle. A vacuum flask is really useful of course. I have a small Kinto for coffee for the few times I need a vacuum flask. Also my Nalgene is the same width as hydroflasks and that will fit in most Osprey backpacks, if you can't find a backpack to hold your bottle 👍

I’m surprised that MiiR didn’t get a mention. They have the same three eco certifications as Kleen Kanteen, support clean water projects around the globe, and make great water bottles (in my opinion). It’s a great option for those that can’t find Kleen Kanteen, or simply prefer MiiR’s selection or designs.

i've lost many a water bottle when I first got a reusable one from costco with my friends . im proud to say i havent lost my yeti yet and have had it for 3 years

Given that every hydro flask I’ve ever gotten was either free or I paid $4 for… I’d say they’re nice to have. The $4 was for a 32oz insulated bottle (brand new). Only trade off is that I don’t get to pick the color, but metallic grey was really convenient.

Watching this video at a university, I've seen more than a dozen of these bottles already and I claim that I have one as well. It really has gotten me to consume more water since I bought it quite recently since the water fountains on campus have a bottle refilling station. My curiosity really got me this time around when I purchased my HydroFlask at my local thrift shop for $1.

I love Zojirushi water Bottles, they have a convenient spring loaded lid that can used one handed.

I've been using a $15 vacuum steel bottle for four years and it's held up fantastically. I take it with me absolutely everywhere. I don't see a reason to purchase one from a "premium" brand unless they're proven to be a good ethical decision such as Kleen Lantern, and even then I won't get one unless my bottle somehow stops holding water

They were cheaper before they blew up. $25-$30 is now $40+. So when my first bottle was destroyed during outdoor activity, I replaced it with a similar camelbak bottle on sale for $10.

Got my 40 oz. for like $45, threw a silicone sleeve on it and it's by far the best water bottle I've ever had. Going on 3 years now and still works/looks like brand new.

I brought a hydroflask since as you said you only really need one water bottle and itll last you forever, and it was the best looking one at that time IMO. Bought it in 2018 and still using it now so no complaints.

It might be weird, but I feel like metal water bottles make my water taste metallic and find that it causes me to use it less. I bought a Nalgene that I’ve had for a couple years now and (hopefully) will have for many many more and I love it. Curious to know about any sustainable plastic water bottle companies.

My husband's company used to work with this company before they moved to another state. They would gift this thing away all the time lol. So we have a bunch of Hydro flasks at home. Are they really THAT special? Idk, it's just a freaking 'thermos' to me. Then I saw the price, and I was like wth!!

I’m not into these things since I avoid drinking cold water as much as possible. On a Starbucks December tradition, I got their insulated tumber instead of their planner. I was really happy with the sleek tumbler because my coffee can stay hot up to 4 hours even if I accidentally slept and forgot to cover the lid and 6+ hours hot when covered. So now I got the Aquaflask and we have a hype of this bottle here. I understand how this can be helpful especially if you do mountain hiking or gym/workout training and you will have a cold water that can last for a day. Will probably use mine just to store my hot water lol since I still prefer my dilapidated 1 yr old Starbucks tumbler for my hot coffee haha.

This was a thought provoking video. I was particularly intrigued when you mentioned how people carry their Hydro Flasks around as an accessory because they're usually too large for most water bottle pockets. Consequently, they're seen by more people, becoming more familiar and recognizable. Genius design move on their part. An extra large water bottle pocket has been a requirement for my backpacks ever since I got my flask. I've been carrying a Hydro Flask around for almost 10 years now. It's pretty banged up, but still works just fine. I don't have any particular loyalty to the brand, it just happened to be the first company I heard about when the "insulated bottle craze" began. Can't argue with the convenience. I've actually covered the logo with a sticker because I don't usually like showing off branding. I would agree that the brand has become "chic" over the years, streamlining their logo and the silhouette of their products. If I lost mine and had to get another, I'd probably look into getting a Klean Kanteen.

Unterstood the criticism but bought a bottle once, used it over years is sustainable. Just speaking for myself : Working half a year abroad with a global aid organization in different countries, climates for over a decade i still have my Hydroflask with me, bought 9 yrs ago. It fits in my one bag perfectly, fits my needs regarding hot/cold climate, lid still works perfect all important when you've have to be aware of your water needs in countries with water source problems, trying to solve them.

He's not criticizing you dude. This channel is about highlighting good brands, in the same way social media highlights the best marketing gimmicks.

Hydro flasks took over my home state by storm back in high school. I bought one and all throughout college and beyond it held my drinks well, even with a dent (because I’m clumsy like that). Nearly everyone had one at work and school, carried it while out and about, etc. Small businesses would make tons of custom handles and accessories just for those bottles. When I moved to a different state it felt weird not seeing hydro flasks at every turn anymore.

Hydro Flask is worth it because of the following for me: - It goes on discount often. I got my 32 oz straw lid Hydro Flask for like $20 which is a no-brainer. - My previous Hydro Flask which was only 18 oz for 5 years. It was still going strong despite having dents and it easily outlasts every other bottle I had from cheaper manufacturers. The only reason I'm replacing it is because it literally got stolen lol - My other option was the Owala and I shyed away from it because it can't hold hot and carbonated drinks. I also heard the lid breaks easily, so I'd have a hard time replacing it if that happens because they're not yet available locally in my country (only Amazon) - Hydro Flask is also locally available so it having lifetime warranty helps me feel confident in its longevity. I don't collect these flasks at all so I don't have the consumerist mentality that people have. Just a dedicated travel water bottle which is my Hydro Flask and an insulated mug from a random shop which cost me $5 tops for coffee.

I have literally never heard of this brand before. I must be out of the loop haha. Basically all of my life I have owned water bottles and have felt bad about the environmental impact when I was forced to get bottled water. I'm always surprised when a friend doesn't own one and has never owned one. My grandma still has perfectly functioning bottles and flasks from the 80s and 90s. They're still going strong.

I think this may be a sales pitch... The only ones I've heard hyped are the LTT waterbottles... And that's not a brand of water bottle, but merch for Linus Tech Tips. The actual manufacturer is unknown, but the design was made by LTT's graphics designer. It seems to be in the neighborhood of what these others do, so I guess it's alright.

I've been hoping you guys would make a Hydro Flask vid! The lids on a bottle are something to bring up too because it's an important part of the construction of a durable product as well. Too many bottles have intricate "spill proof" mechanisms and straws that just end up breaking or just being hard to clean in general because of the tiny pieces and crevices. Had to toss a Contigo after only a month of use... I love the HF lids. You can hold several bottles with one finger because of the handles, they're flat on top so you can set them on a flat surface without them rolling away (Klean Kanteen makes flat top ones with handles as well,) and the screw on lid is easy to clean with no little pieces that will break or let leaks and spills through when I toss them in my backpack sideways. Simple and effective!

@@Ignacio.Romero In terms of what they do in-house, I can't disagree with you, they do pretty well on that front. The issue lays with their anti-repair practices. Apple does (at least until recently) everything in their power to stop the consumer from fixing their devices without going to an Apple store and paying nearly the price of a new product, which of course breeds incentive to not bother fixing a device and instead buying a new one. This of course results to most customers trashing their old stuff, which of course has a negative environmental impact. This coupled with the fact that many companies copy Apple's practices means that several other companies are also generating more customer e-waste directly because Apple could get away with it. TL;DR: Apple on paper has a low environmental impact, but because of what they force customers to do with their products after they break, as well as their influence on other companies' practices, their environmental impact is abysmal because they push customers to toss their old products into landfills. Not cool, both from a consumer and environmental perspective.

my hydro flask barely keeps my tea warm for 4 hrs

Yes, I use a 40 oz Hydro Flask at uni, because it keeps my water cold, but most importantly… it does not leak. Also, it does not impart any smell or taste to the water, and since I have the wide neck version, it’s easy to put standard-sized ice cubes into it. The color is also beautiful. So, I’m keeping mine. In one of my classes, the text noted the whole water bottles of the middle-class thing… I calmly pulled mine out of my pack and started sipping. LOL :)

My Klean Kanteen is going on 11 years old. It looks beat to crap, dented, paint flaking off and I love it. When someone has a pristine water bottle you know they are replacing them frequently, defeating the whole purpose of it.

I also was interested in picking up one of those at one point. Credit where it is due, their marketing is really on point, and the product does not look too shabby. But then, I have used and am perfectly happy with my Kleen Kanteen, Stanley and Contigo mugs and my Avex Capacitor water bottles (Sadly they do not make the "unfinished stainless" models anymore). They have served me well for years and have in some cases traveled the world with me. So unless I loose or break any of them (unlikely) I do not see myself purchasing more drinking vessels, Hydroflask or otherwise. A bottle not fitting into the holders on backbacks is an instant deal breaker for me though.

I LOVE my Hydro Flask and use it daily. In fact each member of my family has one. I like the variety of colors offered so we can tell them apart. Also, 2 were purchased at REI for around $12 ea on sale (old season colors) and 2 were purchased for 14.99 at TJMaxx. We opted for the slimmer 24 oz with sipper tops. They've been great bottles - no regrets.

I chose Hydro flask because it kept my drink very cold in summer atleast 24 to 48 hrs. and they are cute and can also be used a weapon if needed lol! My first one was a gift and since then I never stopped buying them. I only buy at the Hydro Flask main store.

I've had the same 40oz Hydroflask since 2018 and I still use it to this day. I barely bought a new 24oz hydroflask a few weeks ago at my job (I work at a HomeGoods) for the shorter shifts when I don't want to carry around a 40oz. But that's it, I don't need more than two: one big and one small.

As someone who reuses plastic water bottles often, being for the environment is about reducing waste and reusing as much as you can. Thank you for the knowledge about klean kanteen and hydroflask, if I were to buy a bottle, I’d most likely go for klean kanteen, based on their initiatives to help the environment and do more to help reduce their waste.

I can't argue with you about your points cause they are valid, but I still own a couple of hydro flasks 😅 I got mine years ago bc I was tired of the narrow neck sizes and various twist lids that the competitions bottles had which always made it more difficult to really get the bottle clean or annoying to out drink of. I use them religiously in place of a regular mug/cup at home which has saved me from washing more cups and stale water 😬 (yes I'm lazy). I use a straw top or coffee top interchangeably on the bottles I own and can say for a fact that it's helped me to drink more water.
