The Water Bottle Wars Are Still Raging — These Are the Front-Runners

Owala Water Bottle ($28)

On TikTok, the Owala Water Bottle vies with the Stanley tumbler for the position of most beloved water bottle. These bottles are BPA, lead, and phthalate-free and touted as being “leak free.” The FreeSip comes in a variety of sizes and colors, with a built–in straw and spout, allowing users to drink as quickly or as little as they want. The insulation allows drinks to stay cold for up to 24 hours, though hot liquids aren’t compatible with this one.

Editor Quote: “When put to the test (and by that, we mean flipped completely upside down on camera), Stanley simply didn’t hold up against other trendy tumblers, including the ‘leak-proof’ Owala. But even beyond that, people on TikTok say Owala water bottles just make more sense in their day-to-day lives.” — Chandler Plante, Assistant Editor, Health & Fitness
