It's stainless steel so it's pretty loud when you drop it, but doesn't break (DS likes to bang it on the floor). Plus it's vacuum insulated so it will keep water could all day long - I have friends who had them in Hawaii and they would still have ice in their bottles after a full day at the beach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391774 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 08:33:36 +0000 littlebug 2391774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I picked up a Thermos Funtainer for my son on clearance at Target, and I've been really impressed. I want to get one for myself. It NEVER leaks. It's easy for his little hands to open/close. And it keeps stuff cold for hours. We filled it one morning before going to Disney World, and 6 hours later there was still ice in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391768 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 08:31:09 +0000 DesertDreams88 2391768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Insulated camelbak bottle. I drink more often when the bottle is clear and I see what I have left, plus the straw helps too, no need to even tip. Won't break.</p> <p>@mrssrs: my husband's friend thought it would be funny to throw his Nalgene against a brick wall to demonstrate its strength.... it shattered :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391743 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 08:07:11 +0000 Bao 2391743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Contigo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391737 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 08:02:47 +0000 Pumuckl 2391737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a camelbak and my kids have not managed to destroy it yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391736 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 08:02:06 +0000 mediagirl 2391736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lifefactory.

My LO liked it so much I bought her her own kids ones but she stil prefers mine. It does leak a little bit of you leave it on its side though. I like that I can drink one handed and it has been dropped several times with no issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-bottle-recommendation#post-2391720 Thu, 17 Dec 2015 07:36:25 +0000 honeybear 2391720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a stainless steel Kleen Kanteen wide mouth bottle that I love.
