I've had the chance to try a whole host of reusable water bottles since SISG lauched back in 2007. Let me say any reusable water bottle is better than buying bottled water - there is no dispute on that point.
A reusable water bottle is at its core a simple item. As the market has grown some have offered fancy interchangeble tops and colorful exterior designs.
The S'well bottle was introduced late in 2010 and is the design of founder Sarah Krauss. Sarah was kind enough to send me a bottle to check out and I have to say I was impressed.
I took the S'well bottle with me on a recent trip to Colorado that took me to Rocky Mountain National Park among other places.
The S'well bottle resembles an old fashioned soda pop bottle in its shape and design. I'll be honest when I first saw the S'well bottle the shape didn't appeal to me. However after using it for a week both the shape and the functionality of the bottle stand out as superior to many of the others I've tried.
The most important feature of the 17oz stainless steel lined S'well is its ability to keep liquids hot or cold for many hours due to the fact its insulated. If you are a water drinker this feature alone makes it worth considering.
My S'well kept water cold for hours out in the field - I was amazed. The cap is easy to put on and take off making accessing its contents a breeze. Because the bottle is tall and slender it reduces bulk when stored in a pack.
I have nothing but praise for the S'well bottle. If you're in the market for a new reusable bottle the S'well is worth a look. Its available direct from S'well for about $35.
