Arrow Plastic 22-Ounce Clear BPA-Free Water Bottle Junior Traveler Leak Proof

I have been looking for water bottles similar in shape and size to the ones you purchase at any store. I wanted a 20 oz. bottle, BPA free, refillable, washable and easy to carry/handle. This bottle is primo perfect in every way. It is a good size (20 oz), BPA free, refillable, washable and the design is fantastic. I have looked high and low for this water bottle. I have bought several that did not fit the bill (neck too wide, bottle too big, weird spout, filters I did not need). The carry handle is a real bonus if you want to hook it to a bike or backpack. The handle makes it easy to pour water from the bottle as well. If you are looking for a water bottle similar to the ones sold (with BPA leaching into the healthy water -- ugh), then this is the bottle for you. I fill these bottles from my home filtered water system. You could also fill it with delivered water. You cannot go wrong with this bottle. It arrived quickly. After buying one, I went back to Ozbo and purchased 3 more and they were on sale.

The good: fits in most cup holders. Handle makes it easy to hold, drink, hook, tie, etc. No odor or taste from the material.The bad: Rigid. The rigidity has two negative consequences: first, if enough force is applied the bottle will crack; second, it is hard to squeeze if you want the liquid to come out really fast.If the rigidity doesn't bother you, this is a great bottle.

This bottle I got for my dad who has Parkinson’s and it’s easy for him to use it, even at night in the dark, he loves the handle and there is no spilling. Sturdy plastic and lighweight.

I wanted these to be better. The spout top is extremely hard to open.If you drop it is done because it will get a crack and leak. Unfortunately, no other bottles like this out there. My grocery store Ukrops/Martins used to sell their Acadia store brand spring water. Publix took over our stores and no longer sell Acadia spring water.Those Acadia water sport top bottles were great to refill for water.Can’t get those Acadia bottles anymore so these refillable bottles are a distant second choice as a replacement. I replace them often after they crack from dropping.

This is the smaller version of another bottle I had. Be careful not to drop it because it will shatter the bottom. That's what happened to the last one of mine. Even though this is smaller than I like I could not find it locally so I ordered it online. It works fine for what I need.

As of today (23 July 2013), this water bottle has 5 reviews - all 5 stars. Hmmm ... Well, two of the reviews are by the same reviewer submitted on different dates. They are virtually the same review so I'm not accusing the reviewer of deception - I just don't understand how one reviewer was able to review the same item twice (not just an update or edit).PROS· Cost was only $7.· Doesn't leak.· BPA freeCONS· Cost was $7 for a bottle that is hardly better than the throwaway kind.· The little push/pull piece on top is VERY stiff and hard to slide to the open position.· Maybe that makes no difference because the water comes out so slowly that you have to take the top off in order to drink.· The handle opening is so small that I could only get a couple of fingers around the handle.An excellent water bottle shouldn't leak, should be BPA free, should be easy to carry, and should allow easy access to freely flowing contents. The flimsy Arrow Plastic 22-Ounce Clear BPA-Free Water Bottle doesn't fill the bill.

This is EXACTLY what I had in mind when I started my search! I wanted a water bottle with a handle that I could take on walks of around one hour in the hot Arizona weather. I've used it a handful of times and have not had a problem. I partially fill the bottle and put it in the freezer for the next day's use, when I feel it the rest of the way. The handle is hollow and I tilt it in the freezer so that I won't have frozen water in the handle. I do have one warning if you're thinking of buying this. My four fingers fit very well in the grooved handle. However I do have smallish hands (I wear a size small in golf gloves). If you're a guy or have a larger fingers, you may only be able to hold it comfortably with three fingers.

Handle is too small for my medium-large hands so my wife uses it. Must be careful filling it as it's tippy when empty, and doesn't stand up straight as bottom is somewhat malformed. Otherwise works ok and so far doesn't leak.1/7/14 Update: I'm changing my rating to two stars since I now generally agree with the review titled 'overpriced and poorly made'. One of the two bottles I'd ordered just started leaking for no apparent reason, it's only been used a few times.
