This Nalgene's recycling code is 7, which indicates that it is made of BPA-containing plastic. I was just looking up which plastics are safe to use on the internet, and this was all over the place: Recycling code 1 (PET) is safe, while recycling code 7 (in the shape of recycling arrows) contains BPA and leaches into your beverages. With that big 7 on the bottom, I'm not sure how they can keep claiming this is BPA-free.
I ordered two of these to replace the first one, which had broken at the neck (as seen in the photos). I assumed it was a one-time occurrence, so I ordered another. The casting seam on the side of the second one also broke (photos included). This is only after only the tiniest amount of use on both occasions. I've had a lot of Nalgenes and have dropped them full of water, frozen them, and otherwise abused them, but nothing like this has ever happened to them.

It even includes an estimate of the volume in ounces and milliliters. I chose the one quart model because it was less expensive for some reason. In any case, the bottle itself is sturdy and the grey variation's color is accurate. I've already dropped it while it was still full of water, and the bottle and screw cap have no cracks or other damage. I carry the bottle by the plastic that connects the bottle to the cap, and it is strong enough to handle the weight. The narrow mouth bottle is great for drinking water on the go and preventing spills, particularly while walking, driving, or exercising. Of course, it's a little more difficult to fill than the wide mouth version, but I don't mind. You can clean it with a bottle cleaning brush, which can be found at most Target or Walmart stores for a reasonable price, or you can use the old "fill with soapy water and shake the hell out of it" method. Both of these strategies are effective. It's also worth noting that, unlike one of those newfangled HydroFlask bottles, this bottle won't keep your water cold for very long. This is actually a plus for me because I prefer room temperature water, but it's something to be aware of. I imagine putting ice cubes in the narrow mouth would be a pain, so if that's an issue for you, I'd recommend getting the wide mouth or spending the extra money on an ultra-wide mouth. bottle that has been insulated Finally, the bottle is made in the United States of America. of A.

The bottoms of most of the bottles I own have been scratched from being placed on hard surfaces, but the scratches are barely noticeable. Any decal that has been printed is susceptible to scuffing.
