CamelBak Eddy+ Water Bottle with Tritan Renew

This water bottle is sturdy and the straw works exceptionally well. Maybe the best water bottle I have had

No leaks at all, even after being dropped hundreds of times.

This is my favorite water bottle. Seals up tight and doesn’t leak when tipped over. Super easy to use, just flip up the straw and draw out your beverage. I loose these quite often and this is my 5th one over the last 2 years. I’ve tried to use different ones, but this one works the best and fits perfectly in the cup holder in my car. I’m sure I’ll buy it again as soon as I misplace it.

In short, I love this water bottle. I love it so much, in fact, that I thought I lost it not too long ago, bought a second one and now I have two! I love the rose color and the durability. The spout takes a little getting used to, but I actually really like it now. I’ve dropped 1000s of times and it still looks pretty good and has not ever leaked or broken. I throw it right in the dishwasher after taking the pieces apart, and it comes out beautifully. Pros: It’s pretty, it lasts, and it’s dishwasher safe. I can drop it without fear and it doesn’t leak. Cons: If you’re not used to the spout, it takes a little bit of a learning curve, and the plastic canisters can get a little scratched. I also love that you can buy replacement parts for the straws and the spouts. I’ve bought many of these for my children and myself will continue buying them!

This item Looks GREAT. I love purple and it's a luminous, radiant, shade of slightly reddish, grape colored purple. So for looks it's great. I got the larger size because I thought it looked like it had a more stable base and it is incredibly stable. The Problem is: I almost throw it away because it comes with a soft rubber spout that's so weird and uncomfortable to use... In fact *at first* every time I started trying to use it, it made a whistling sound! I'm not kidding. 😐 It happened to be late at night (I'm living in an Extended Stay hotel with people potentially near by, though actually things feel very private and Quiet here thank God. B4 this I was at La Quinta which was insanely noisey and so imcompetent they have 3 strange men the key to my room! At 10 o'clock at night!! I'm lucky they were good men just in town working on some sort of construction project and they were at least as embarrassed as I was and even more annoyed because they had just been given a room to sleep in and instead of being able to move in and sleep there they had to apologize for the fact that they just walked in on a woman sitting on her bad probably writing on Facebook I'm just testing total ever just so you get an extra review here. Extended stay America not gorgeous but pretty Pretty high functioning. A little funky but high functioning. La Quinta looks great is terrible. Back to our water bottle review... I was trying it out for the 1st time and I couldn't even take a sip of water without making ridiculous whistling sound. Like a bird whistle! Plus the rubber chip that you're supposed to add made me feel like an infant nursing from a baby's bottle. I think that's the idea that I'm trying to like help you plug into some kind of like you know Plug into your Mommy issues to help you to encourage you to go into a sort of a nursing mode To get you to drink more water. But I just found it gross and awkward. I think I actually threw that part away. Plus, Another problem but probably this applies to All bottles of this type--if you only put a little bit of water in it, like you're just trying it out, it doesn't work at all. And I wasn't sure at 1st whether it was adding a bad taste to the water, so I just really almost gave up on this product. But, probably because it's so beautiful to look at, I persisted and decided to add more of my precious filtered water, good quality water with electrolytes, threw away the gross smushy rubber spout, and tried again. And once you toy with it for a while, it works quite well. It should not have been this hard for me to figure out how to use a bottle of water. 😐 I'm getting more rather than less mechanical and techie as I get older. (As a writer I've had to learn how to operate on social media, even to the extent of running a Facebook group or 2 and having my own YouTube channel. I'm primarily a writer but I also do some visual arts sometimes, like collage or I make music videos actually, and sometimes I say. All of that is I consider amateur, sideline activity. I consider myself a semi professional writer, because I've been published a dozen plus times. Anyway, point, is I know how to use a computer and I'm more and more comfortable using all kinds of machines.) I really shouldn't need any of those qualifications to use a bottle of water. And the fact that we've made our bottles of water so damn complicated that a person who just wants a BPA free vessel to drink out with which they won't have to worry that it's going to tip over and spill... (I just moved in to the aforementioned hotel and I'm setting everything up, starting a new life, so to speak.) The fact that I should have to even think about whether or not I'm good with technology and machines in terms of whether I can drink out of a bottle of water is a sad commentary on how overcomplicated we've made everything. *But I wouldn't blame this bottle.* This very beautiful, stable, solid, very durable looking, seemingly leak free bottle. It's probably that they're ALL like that. I in fact did my best to find the simplest one, the simplest plastic drinking bottle, and I think that I actually, probably succeeded.😄😄😄 Leaks aren't an issue for me because I'm not a hiker, but I just gave it a little test over the sink and it doesn't seem to leak at all. So although I almost do this away, the happy come-back story is that I've decided it works well. And It's so beautiful to look at that I'm definitely going to keep it and I'm going to figure out how to use it and be happy with it!

I absolutely love these bottles. They are drip and spill proof. Cleaning the mouth piece is very easy. Perfect size.

I'm bad about not drinking enough water, and now that I have health issues that require me to drink water because of my meds and to help reduce the goop in my lungs, I have started religiously using my water bottles. I've been using CamelBak bottles for several years. I had two .75L ones that I had stuck up on a shelf and stopped using because of the lids cracking at the spout, but because when I bought them they were like $20 each I couldn't make myself toss them. I have a 1L that I've been using for a while and finally had a d'oh! thought to order new spouts for it...just to realize the new Eddy+ lids FIT MY OLD BOTTLES! (I don't know why I never thought to check my newer bottle's lid against those bottles.) So not only did I snag this one on sale for a steal this week at $10, I picked up extra bite valves and also new Eddy+ lids for my old .75L bottles. AND a set of aftermarket chug lids. So now I can mix electrolytes into the smaller ones and stick them in the fridge to drink when I need them with the chug valves, or I can use them as water bottles, and I feel like an idiot for not looking for replacement lids before now. I also love that it's easy to find water bottle carriers for both sizes. I like these because even the 1L bottles fit in my car's drink holder without issue. I don't usually need long-time insulation on them, but I can use an insulated sleeve/carrier when I do. These things take a beating, too.

I love CamelBak, but I especially love this one. The reason why might surprise you—it’s because of the sensory input it provides by requiring you to bite the nozzle and suck through the straw. Surprised? Let me explain. In the world of special needs (autism, ADHD, generalized anxiety, etc.), sensory management is super important for regulation. But truth be told, it’s not just for those categories—it’s important for all of us. Typically, when managing sensory input, we talk about three types of sensory regulation: -Vestibular (balance & movement) -Proprioception (body awareness & joint impact) -Deep pressure (calming compression, like weighted blankets) These sensory inputs affect brain chemistry, influencing mood regulation by impacting serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine, oxytocin, and other neurotransmitters. In this case, let’s focus on proprioception input, which involves joint impact—things like going up and down stairs, jump roping, running, climbing, and any movement that creates impact on the joints. This kind of input helps release serotonin (and others) , which has a regulating and calming effect. There’s good reason people feel better after exercise! Now, here’s where it gets interesting: One of the most effective joints for proprioceptive input is … the jaw.! That’s the joint you get the most bang for the buck . That’s why people chew on pencils, gum, shirts, or even overeat—it’s a quick way to stimulate serotonin release. So why do I love this bottle so much? Because you have to bite down on the mouthpiece to get water out. That jaw engagement provides subtle proprioceptive input, which is calming and regulating—especially for sensory-seeking or anxious individuals. But there’s more benefit to the way, this bottle is designed: the sucking action itself also helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress—making it doubly beneficial for those who need both self-regulation and sensory input. All of that, added to the fact that this is completely spilled proof, makes these bottles the perfect thing to give a sensory seeking child or an anxious child. Also to any individual that has difficulty paying attention from things like ADHD. And I’m not too ashamed to say as an adult thats me Lol! I also like this newer design over the older eddy bottles. It has a nice curvature to the top area and, I don’t know…Just seems so much more sleek. Super easy to wash too. I just tear it all apart and throw in the top shelf of the dishwasher.
