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.

 I can't stop drinking water now! October 2, 2008
I purchased the 1 Liter (black) water bottle recently. It is the best water bottle I have ever had. I had come from using your run of the mill Nalgene bottle which I was disatisfied with because I always spilled water on me and it wasn't BPA free. I decided to try something different and after scouring Amazon I picked this one and I couldn't be more pleased. The person(s) who designed this are geniuses. I love not having to tip the water bottle up to drink out of it. All I have to do is flip the valve up and sip. The straw and bite valve is the best feature and I don't feel like a baby drinking out of a sippy cup. It makes it easy to drink more water...I had drank a whole liter before I even knew it! This is a very high quality water bottle for an exceptional price, and every morning I can't wait to start drinking water from it! No other water bottle can even compare.
 Good bottle, for price October 2, 2008
Fits well into my pouches on backpack. Easy to drink from and meets my needs.
No spills September 30, 2008
I've used Camelbak backpacks while bike riding. Decided to purchase the water bottle, since the whole BPA scare. It does not spill! I filled it up with water, flipped up the bite valve, and held it upside down for 10 seconds, no drip at all! It is a sturdy bottle. Don't have to suck too hard for the water to come out. The bite valve flips up and down with ease. The handle is convenient to carry the bottle around with one finger. Great construction. Highly recommend it.

Bought this bottle in July 08 and initially loved it. I used it everyday and it made getting my water in a little easier. After about a month of use, the bottle started to leak. I would pick it up to take a drink and water would spill down the front of my shirt. Somehow water was leaking up and out of the straw and then would pool on the top until I picked it up and spilled it on myself. I contacted the company and recieved a generic response that didn't resolve my problem. I emailed again and got a response that made a little more sense...I think they read my email this time. The problem wasn't resolved. They stated they would send me a replaceemnt lid, but havn't heard or recieved anything since I requested the replacement.
I started folding the straw down everytime I was done drinking. This seemed to keep the liquid from coming up and out of the straw while it was sitting. Just the other night while I was at the gym, I went to open the straw to take a drink and the plastic piece at the base of straw that you use to open and shut it broke. It just snapped off. After roughly 3 months of use.
Maybe the company will surprise me and eventually send me the replacement that they promised.
