Our performance test measures how long it takes for chilled water (approximately 3°C) to reach 11.5°C while stored in each bottle.

Our ease of use test assesses ease of carrying, opening and closing, drinking and dismantling to clean. We also look for any leaks, condensation, odd tastes in the water and spills while drinking.

We also include general information on volume, dimensions, which bottles are double-walled for improved insulation and handling, and more.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer's website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn't influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We're currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. Tell us what you think.

      We measure the time it takes for chilled water (approximately 3°C) to reach 11.5°C with the lid attached. The surrounding ambient air temperature is maintained at approximately 24°C. Cups with a higher score kept the water cool for a longer period of time.

      Double wall

      Double wall insulation can make the bottle easier to hold as it reduces condensation buildup on the exterior layer. It also helps keep liquids cool.
