![]() Nalgene Nalgene Bottle 32oz Widemouth Water Bottle By: Nalgene Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 2 More Information The de facto hydration system for hikers...... by: lovetheblues07 On: 2006-08-14 Nalgene 32 oz. Bottles have become synonymous with hikers as the default medium through which to carry water, or any liquid. The properties of Nalgene make it perfect, as it is both lightweight and allows for boiling water to be poured into the bottle when preparing potable water during hiking trips or expeditions. Nalgene also precludes any stains or absorbing odors to take over the bottle, as is the case with most other materials. Add fantastic durability into the equation and what else could one ask for? I'm drinking more water and saving on plastic! I will list my pros and cons with this product: Pros: Easier to clean than the smaller mouthed bottles; Im not recycling as much plastic in the way of purchased bottled water, which saves resources; I can easily add ice cubes to this container; Im drinking more water for some reason maybe because I can add ice cubes; no funny taste associated with this container; has a jacket accessory that can be purchased separately thats works nicely to keep condensation off tables Cons: doesnt fit in car cup holders, even my largest one. This is really the only flaw for me, but a big one as it poses problems when driving. I havent tried the 24 oz version which may solve this problem but also take away some of the features that I like with the 32 oz model. So though this isnt the perfect solution, its the closest Ive found so far. I'm drinking more water and saving on plastic!
