 Great for office desk, but not home August 25, 2008

This is a great bottle to keep at my desk and refill with cold water from the building's drinking fountain. Water from the fountain where I work tastes terrible, and this bottle filters out the bad taste quite well. It's not meant to purify unsafe water, just improve the taste of water from the faucet, and it does that well for me.
At home, I'd definitely keep a Brita or similar pitcher in the fridge rather than using this small squeeze bottle, and for hiking a regular sports bottle filled from that pitcher is lighter, holds more, and is more leakproof. This bottle is perfect for situations like my office though, or anywhere you're fairly sedentary but can't keep a pitcher of water cool. The drinking procedure took a little getting used to (as other reviewers point out, you must squeeze water into your mouth rather than sipping), but I got used to it quickly. I'd rather squeeze this bottle than spend $1 per disposable bottle for cold water from a vending machine.

Fit N Fresh 131FF LivPURE Filtered Water Bottle
I had seen this item in a magazine article, and in my quest to start recycling, reusing, and reducing. I decided to stop buying the usual water bottles that fill up our landfills. Since we had all started drinking more water once I started buying this style water bottles, I thought it would be terrible not to have some type of easy to grab style bottle in the fridge at all times.
Well, this idea seemed great, use the same plastic water bottle with a build in filter, that also didn't emit the same toxic chemicals that other water bottles claim to and can even be top shelf dishwashed. Wow, what a great concept.
The downside to this is, in order to actually get the water out of the water bottle you have to kind of squeeze and suck at the same time, so the water can process through the filter. It's very slow, and I ended up using so much energy to drink out of it, I never really drank from it. Consuming far less water than I'd like and feeling dehydrated by the end of the day.
My son seems to like it and my boyfriend has totally thrown in the towel with it too. I'm not likely to use it at all and spent almost $13 on each one. Thinking I'd be saving money in the long run, I actaully will end up losing money and not drinking nearly enough water in a day.
Not my type of water holder, I may go back to the old school water bottles. Then let my son use the other two water bottles in his time. Not a total loss, but I'll buy one experimental item next time, instead of all three.

I love this bottle! I always bought bottled water to take to work because the city water tastes terrible. The filter on this bottle definitely makes a difference in the way the water tastes. I only gave it 4 stars because I think it would be perfect if the bottle was insulated to keep water cold. Other than that, I would buy it again in a heartbeat, and I would definitely recommend it to a friend.

I recently changed locations for my job from a building that had free access to delivered filtered water to one without and I decided that I really didn't want to pay $1 every time I was thirsty. So, when I heard about this bottle, I was already in the process of trying to find a filtered water bottle to take with me every day. The perfect timing of the release of this bottle seemed like fate. And I loved many of the other Fit & Fresh items (except for the original salad shaker, which was round instead of the new square one and whose ice pack would fall into the salad and squish all the lettuce every day..). Obviously the bottle and I were meant to be - or were we? When I finally received this bottle, it actually made me excited to go to work the next day so I could try it out. That's when I found the flaws in this. While the idea behind this bottle is genius, the execution is.. not. The idea is that you fill up your bottle, open the pop-top, tip the bottle upside down, squeeze, and shoot the water into your mouth. OK, sounds easy enough. However, the filter takes up nearly the top half of the bottle, so it's awkward having to hold it near the bottom and squeeze. Also, because of the length of the filter, you're squeezing a bunch of air into your mouth for the first few seconds before any water even starts to come out. By that time, your hand gets a little tired of squeezing. I'm pretty bummed about my new bottle and I think I may end up returning it and just getting a filtering pitcher and a regular water bottle...
