Our editors independently research, test, and recommend the best products; you can learn more about our review process here. We may receive commissions on purchases made from our chosen links.

It may seem like there’s not much to talk about when it comes to water bottles. Get a bottle, pour some water in it, drink said water. And sure, you could make it that simple…or you could put a little more time and effort into your water bottle shopping and seriously step up your sipping game. After all, let’s be real—most of us likely aren’t drinking enough H2O daily, and what better motivation to stay hydrated than a new water bottle? (And we can’t forget to mention the environmental impact, too. If you aren’t yet using a reusable water bottle, it’s time. Ninety-one percent of all plastic isn’t recyclable, taking a major toll on the planet.) Whether you need one to help you power through your workouts, are looking for an option with added benefits, or just want to a bottle that will look cute on your desk, these fit the bill.

A special lid makes this bottle totally spill-proof—because there’s nothing quite as distressing as realizing your water bottle leaked in your purse—and the double-walled stainless steel keeps water cold for up to 24 hours. (It also keeps beverages hot for up to 8 hours, so if you want to fill it with coffee instead, we won’t tell.) It fits snugly in cup holders and comes in six pretty colors…and all of this for an affordable price.

Staying hydrated is extra important while traveling, but no one wants to be shelling out for an overpriced bottle of water at the airport. Still, lugging around a clunky reusable bottle can be annoying, particularly when you’re trying to travel light. Enter this option, which holds 25 ounces of water, but also collapses down to a one-and-a-half-inch thick disk when empty; stash it in your purse, the front of your carry-on, heck, even your pocket. (Amazon fans rave about how lightweight and easy to carry it is.) Made of food-grade silicone, you can toss it in the dishwasher, though the mouth is extra-wide to make hand-washing easy, too.

These bottles are made of copper not only for aesthetic reasons; the mineral is also essential for the body, promoting everything from detoxification to improving immunity to balancing pH levels. The premise here: Pour your water in the copper bottle and it will absorb the copper and its nutrients. FYI, this is a hand wash only situation, and if it starts to tarnish (which is normal) use lemon juice to clean it.

One hundred dollars is admittedly a lot to shell out for a water bottle but stay with us here. This isn’t your momma’s water bottle—it’s the world’s first self-cleaning one. Push a button and a UV-C light neutralizes up to 99.9999% of harmful bacteria and viruses in just 60 seconds, so you can have pure water anytime, anywhere. Not to mention that that UV light also purifies the bottle itself, so you never have to deal with that perpetual, funky smell that you just can’t get rid of with some other reusable bottles.
