Paperchase Agenzio 1L Water Bottle - Oatmeal

Product Information

Yet, for longer treks in the bush where this bottle could get beat up, we found ourselves grabbing one of the less flashy and more durable bottles.

The cap threads are well made, and it spins open with a satisfyingly smooth whirl and clamps down tight due to a rubber gasket under the lid. It weighs less than a smartphone and fits in a pocket, making it a great emergency option if you run out of water but come across a stream.Since 1968, Paperchase has been spreading joy through its cornucopia of smile-inducing stationery, cards, gifts and more. At the end of the day, this water bottle is a great deal and performs well in the daily grind or at the gym. Our main reviewer is really sensitive to plastic taste and smell, so we were able to hone in on not just the differentiation but also the elements that contributed to the difference. After months of field and controlled comparative testing, we offer our top recommendations across several categories to satisfy your hydration needs.

We have tested nearly 80 unique water bottles in the last eight years, with 18 top contenders in this review alone.

If you're planning on mindlessly tossing your bottle into your pack, you may want to consider one of the more leakproof options mentioned above.

Lastly, there were what we would classify as the "backpacking bottles" that both produced a bit of leakage on this test. The Brita Stainless Steel Filter Bottle, which is actually our top choice for filter bottle, scored the lowest on this test. The Iron Flask Insulated stood out, with an easy-to-grip carry handle with a carabiner clip and a flip-up straw. The Speedfil Speedflask earned a high score thanks to its skinny waste and push button flip cap with a finger carry handle that clips down to stay out of the way when not in use.One of the highest scoring bottles in many other regards—the Klean Kanteen TKWide --is quick to hydrate with a two-handed half twist, but it leaked a decent amount during controlled testing (although none was noticed during field testing). Everyone drinks water, but not everyone takes hydration as seriously as our lead bottle testers, Jon Oleson and Jane Jackson. There were those bottles that were quick to hydrate but didn't pass the leakproof test, like the aforementioned Speedflask.
