    Comments about Nalgene Narrow-Mouth Polyethylene Bottle - 16 oz.:

    Overall a great product. I take this to the gym, field games, car, afternoon's out, etc. I was looking for a product that was BPA free, narrow mouthed, leak proof lid and able to fit in car cup holders. This is the only product that has all these features. Only the OTG bottle comes close but it's lid is not leak proof. I wanted to be able to throw this bottle in a bag where it might end up sideways or upside down and not worry about leaks (I'm not a big fan of "bite" valves or straws). The screw top lid works great and doesn't get lost. The only thing I don't like is that there isn't an equivalent 24 oz size (the 32 oz narrow mouth bottle is too wide to fit in a cup holder). And color would be nice. I'm guessing Nalgene will be releasing the narrow mouthed bottles in the Tritan copolyester material (BPA free) in all the colors of the rainbow...like they previously had. Hopefully they make one of them narrow enough to fit in a cup holder, as I'd definitely buy some more. For active users this is a great bottle.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      Comments about Nalgene Narrow-Mouth Polyethylene Bottle - 16 oz.:

      This is a smaller version of the classic 32oz HDPE Nalgene. If you buy into all of the polycarbonate/lexan bisphenol-A scare and are worried about leaching, you're in the clear with this bottle. Cheap and durable. No need to pop for the more expensive stainless steel bottles that get hot and dent/scratch.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      Great Bottle for Daily Use & Camping

      Pros

      • Durable
      • No bisphenol-A BPA
      • No Plastic Taste

      Cons

      • Like colored bottles look

      Best Uses

      • Backcountry Camping
      • Campgrounds
      • Day Trips
      • Survival

      Comments about Nalgene Narrow-Mouth Polyethylene Bottle - 16 oz.:

      I purchased this bottle to replace my polycarbonate versions of the same bottles. While I prefer the look of the colored bottles, I am dependent on the "function" of these bottles. The loop makes it easy to attach to anything while shopping, traveling, etc. Besides being my daily water bottle, we also used it camping since you can measure with it for cooking. And no BPA! As a new mom, I don't want to take risks with my health or the health of my baby.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Nalgene Narrow-Mouth Polyethylene Bottle - 16 oz.:

          I have been trying out different water bottles for years for daily use but always end up abandoning them. I get the feeling this is the bottle I've been searching for. Perfect size for my smaller hands, perfect opening to drink from, perfect for cup holder, perfect for the little flavor mix packets, perfect for every day whether at the office or the dog park. I love the functionality so much that for once, I don't care that it's a basic color set up.

          Agree with someone else - it would be great to have a 24 oz. that's just taller vs. bigger circumference for longer outings. The 32 oz. will remain a dog water bottle for the park.

          Service and delivery comments:

          Ordered online and picked up at the store. Everything was great! Thankful for the online reviews.

            Convenient size; fits nicely in your hand, in cup holders and in backpack bottle pockets. Narrow mouth makes it easier to drink from. I have a "wide-body" 16 oz. polycarb Nalgene, but, BPA aside, I like this one better because of its narrower body size. I like it so much I got 2.
