The Better Bottle with Big Bite Valve makes it easy to hydrate on the go. | What is BPA?
Bisphenol-A is an ingredient used to make polycarbonate. In recent months, there has been increasing consumer demand for a bottle that is not made with Bisphenol-A (BPA), and CamelBak is proud to introduce BPA-free bottles with the same great properties customers have come to expect from polycarbonate: vibrant color, clarity, durability, dishwasher-safe, and with no residual taste. As of the end of April 2008, the entire CamelBak bottle line will be available in BPA-Free materials in North America. What are phthalates?
Phthalates (pronounced thal-ates) are a component added to some plastics to make them soft and pliable. None of CamelBak's bottles have ever contained phthalates. What is the BPA-free Better Bottle made from?
The CamelBak Better Bottle line is made from a new copolyester polymer called Tritan, made by Eastman. It offers the same great qualities that we have come to expect from polycarbonate bottles and is 100 percent BPA-Free. The Big Bite Valve is made of medical-grade silicone for long life and taste-free performance. About CamelBak
CamelBak is the originator and world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular among mountain bikers and motocross riders, because it allowed them to drink without taking their hands off of the handlebars in technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and performed better when they wore a CamelBak. Since then, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities use CamelBak hydration systems for their convenience and performance benefits. In addition to cycling, CamelBak has Hands-Free Hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak's state-of-the-art packs and hydration systems have benefited athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world. While CamelBak has grown tremendously since the early days, one thing hasn't changed: CamelBak still believes in the performance advantage that proper hydration delivers for just about any activity. The privately-held company is headquartered in Petaluma, California.

 It might be BPA free BUT.... August 20, 2008
It might be BPA free but its made of #7 plastic which is known to cause cancer. I figured that out today. Additionally it does not fit in my car cup holder and after 2 weeks of typical use its very scuffed and dull looking. I just tossed it into the recycle bin and am waiting for my new aluminum Oggi bottles to arrive.
 Excellent bottle! August 20, 2008
What I love about this bottle is that it's dish-washer safe - no cleaning tablets necessary. If anyone out there has any questions about this bottle, just go to Camelbak's web site and they explain how you can take it apart to fit in the top rack of your dishwasher.
I put an "S" hook on the handle bar of my push mower so I could hang this bottle from it when I mow. It also fits in my car cup holder. I bought two - one for work and one for home but my jealous husband snagged one for himself.
I have never had a problem getting a sufficient amount of liquid from the bite valve, nor have I had any leaking problems. Very happy!
Great at work August 17, 2008
Simple. Works well. I take it to work every day, and can watch my water consumption.
Great water bottle August 16, 2008
Perfect size to take to the gym. Easy to hold onto with the loop at the top instead of gripping the main bottle. Love the no-spill - works great!
Terrific Bottle! August 8, 2008
I read lots of reviews for this and other BPA-free bottles, and spent lots of time surfing the net to see what was out there. I kept coming back to the CamelBak. I have a medical condition that has made me klutzy, so I wanted a bottle that I couldn't spill. The bite valve does the trick -- and yes, I've knocked it over multiple times. I bought two bottles: 1 liter and .75 liter.
As others have noted, it takes some practice to get used to the bite valve, but it's easy to learn.
The only thing that would make this bottle better is an insulated cover for both sizes (I think there's one for the .75 liter size) that would absorb or prevent condensation. It's been very humid his summer and anything with ice in it sweats like crazy.
