HYDAWAY17oz Collapsible Water Bottle - BPA-Free, Leakproof, Lightweight, and Space-Saving - Perfect for Travel, Hiking, and Everyday Hydration

We've used these at an amusement park twice now. Couldn't be happier. They are easy to store in the car until we go somewhere that charges an arm and a leg for bottled water (amusement parks, zoos, museums, gardens, beach, etc.). Then I just tuck them in my purse or jacket pockets. Trick to opening them is to pull up the handle and pull that end open first. Then pull the bottom half open. Fill them from a water fountain--so far, the water has been cool, and the bottle keeps it that way. To drink, I found the easiest way is to gently squeeze the bottle and squirt the water into your mouth. You can compress the bottom or top of the bottle as the water level goes down--then easy enough to pull out and add more water. Love how easy it is to wash them in the kitchen sink or dishwasher. My only mistake was getting two bottles of the same color.

Ideal travel companion

Love how tiny it folds down to and how much water it securely holds. As others have noted there’s a slight metallic taste at first. I’ve tried to wash out but I admit to being picky about the taste of my water. Despite this I highly recommend this water bottle - the metallic taste is slight and fades in time (or I’ve gotten used to it!)

The media could not be loaded. This is the best collapsible water bottle I’ve ever used in my life. I’ve used other ones before and they fold but they don’t get that small and it’s still difficult to put them in your bag. This one folds up so small that it fits into my fanny pack really easily it also didn’t leak and was pretty easy to unfold. The only thing is I feel like it doesn’t hold that much water, but there is a bigger size Overall it’s amazing.

I bought 6 of these for a fam trip to Rome and Athens. They collapse well. They didn't stink or taste funny. They didn't leak. But, they are too wide to fit inside standard backpack mesh side pockets when expanded. They have a loop. It's plastic. I feel it's the weakest part of the bottle. None of ours broke though. I likely would not buy again.

Took these to Disney and they were very convenient. Good price and seem to be durable. They didn’t leak when we had them clipped onto our bags but I never laid them down with water in them so I don’t know about that. They are very light and I don’t notice and weird taste.

Do not purchase this product. If you put good water in this bottle, after sitting in the bottle, the water takes on a bad taste. Probably coming from the material the bottle is made from. Washing thoroughly isn’t going to help. I would never purchase this again.

I love that this collapses so small, fits easily in my day pack. And it stands on its own, doesn't topple over like a lot of them do when full. No 'plastic' taste either. And no leaking. I keep it in my car when not traveling, so it's handy! And I got the zippered carry case for it , so it looks classy.
