I’ve gotten rid of every other bottle in favor of these. They don’t leak and they keep liquids cold.

Should add I only have the ones without straws.

This kind, with the spout lid? https://www.amazon.com/Takeya-Actives-Insulated-Stainless-Bottle/dp/B07NH4X6R4/ref=asc_df_B07NH4X6R4/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693416923581&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17861946752992200943&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9191685&hvtargid=pla-680447995130&psc=1&mcid=30c3e5d537fb3c0e9e815b9eba16bc89&gad_source=1&th=1

There aren’t that many options for no plastic water bottles especially leak-proof ones.

I have had luck with Pura Kiki bottles, no straw and they drink out of the top.

Wait, do you hand wash everything you own that is plastic (or not own any plastic)? Tell us more. I don't use plastic storage containers, I don't put plastic in the microwave, but we do have plastic things and I put them on the top rack to wash. We don't use heat in the dishwasher, no melt risk. Why won't you put any plastic in the dishwasher.

My favorite to drink from is the camelbak chute. It has a lid that has a drinking spout with minimal parts. I put the tops in the dishwasher and hand wash the bottle. I like the drinking spout because it’s much easier to drink quickly from. No leaks, but like every other bottle, you have to seat the lid correctly and not crookedly. And if you ever want a plastic bpa free one, the camelbak reign bottles are great for sports practices.

Insulated or not doesn't matter. Type of top doesn't matter in and of itself as long as it doesn't leak and can stay mold-free by running it through dishwasher regularly (although probably in an ideal world it would be a straw or spout type.)

Thanks all for the input so far!
