Best reusable water bottles

Contigo Matterhorn Couture Thermalock Bottle
Contigo Matterhorn Couture Thermalock Bottle: £18.75 at AmazonContigo's Thermalock vacuum-insulated stainless steel not only keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours, but hot drinks for 10 hours, too. The brand describes the lids as "leak-proof" and the soft-touch handle will keep the lid tethered to the bottle so there's no chance of losing it. Cleaning the bottle should also be a breeze thanks to the removable drinking spout.
Quokka Solid
Quokka Solid: £16.35 at AmazonIf you're looking for a great looking bottle that keeps your drinks cool come rain or shine, Quokka's latest offering - Quokka Solid - is the bottle for the job. Available in a range of ombre tones, as well as solid block colours, the double walled design ensures this bottle combines style and substance.
Brita Fill & Go Active
Brita Fill & Go Active: £11.47 at AmazonThe Brita Fill & Go Active water bottle is great for the gym, offering filtered water for up to 150 litres (then you pop the disc out and replace it). The bottle is squeezable, has a strap and a non-drip mouthpiece. There's a cap included and you can store 600ml in the thing. To top it off it's dishwasher proof and a decent price, too.
Camelback Eddy Outdoor Bottle
Camelback Eddy Outdoor Bottle: £9.39 at AmazonWith its distinctive bite valve that can be rotated to avoid unnecessary spillages, this vibrant water bottle comes in a variety of colours to satisfy even the most fashion conscious drinker. It holds 750ml when full, however, the bottle's water tube carries water from the bottom of the bottle, meaning it must be sipped vertically or chances are you'll just end up with a mouthful of air. Sitting up it is then.
S’Well Fury Vacuum Insulated Bottle (500ml)
S’Well Fury Vacuum Insulated Bottle (500ml): £35 at AmazonIf you want your bottle to stand out from the wealth of clear or metallic designs on the market, S’Well ticks the ‘stylish but understated’ boxes with its Fury bottle. It is designed to stop it ‘sweating’ on everything else in your bag, and the wider-than-average rim means you can even chuck in some ice cubes with no trouble. It keeps hot drinks hot for 12 hours and cold drinks cold for 24.
Cambridge Insulated Bottle (500ml)
Cambridge Insulated Bottle (500ml): £10.79 at AmazonIf you're after a bottle that comes in a ridiculous number of finishes, look no further than these nifty 500ml bottles from Cambridge. You might recognise some of the designs as they're the brand that supplied last year's Love Island villa with coffee cups. So whether you're after flamingos or calm oceanic scenes, there really is a design to suit everyone.
Frank Green Stainless Steel Bottle (595ml)
Frank Green Stainless Steel Bottle (595ml): £29 at bit.lyThis definitely scores points for durability, and the colour select tool on Frank Green’s site makes you feel powerful as you customise the colour of your button, lid and base from10 options. The Australian-founded company also uses smart technology to let users pay for drinks by swiping your bottle (or reusable coffee cup), which is pretty cool, though this is yet to come to the UK at the time of writing.
Bobble Sport (650ml)
Bobble Sport (650ml): £7.99 at AmazonIf you’re the forgetful type, you’ve probably lost count of the number of times you’ve left the gym sipping from your water bottle, and only realised minutes later that you left your bottle-cap behind. The Bobble Sport bottle solves this problem with its soft integrated cap, which you literally can’t misplace because it’s attached to the vessel. Oh, and it has an integrated and replaceable filter, if you’re not a fan of the tap water in your area.
Thermos Eastman Titan Hydration (710ml)
Thermos Eastman Titan Hydration (710ml): £9.99 at AmazonThermos has been in the reusable bottle game for decades, and still makes its flasks for those who prefer for their hot drinks to stay hot. However, they’ve made strides in the reusable water bottle game too. The flip-up lid is very handy for drinking on the go – just press a button to release it – while the bottle is dishwasher-safe to make the ‘reusable’ part a great deal more straightforward.
