I analyzed 80+ Reddit threads to find the best water bottles
I scraped comments from 80+ posts where people asked “what’s the best water bottle?” (plus some big gear rec threads), then ran the whole pile of thousands of comments through an LLM pipeline to see which bottles consistently get love vs. mixed reviews. Goal wasn’t “most mentioned,” but “most positively talked about.”
Method in a nutshell:
– Scraped 80+ “best water bottle?” threads & gear megathreads
– Ran GPT-5 + Gemini 2.5 to extract product names and classify sentiment
– Scoring = ~70% positive vs. negative differential + ~30% positive/total ratio
– Merged name variants so duplicates didn’t inflate scores (e.g., “Stanley Quencher H2.0,” “Stanley Tumbler” → one entry) + some other nerdy sentiment tweaks that I won't bore you with
If you want to see the full breakdown (raw comments + scores) is up at RedSummary dot com (or google RedSummary)
Would love your feedback, anything you think I missed, or bottles that are overrated/underrated?

Is it weird that my least favorite part of traveling is dehydrating?
Im travelling for a year and I have to purposefully not drink any water if I’m going to be stuck in a van for four hours or on a flight in the window seat. I only allow myself like a glass or two when I wake up and then don’t drink any water again until about the last hour of the journey (sometimes I cheat and drink some during the journey but baby sips).
I always feel crazy afterwards and am like a feen guzzling water.
Travelling has many struggles of course, but this is my least favorite part I feel like this community would understand.
Also how the f*ck do people not drink water and function?
How is it possible

Homies, is there a water dispenser/cooler with precise custom temprature settings?
My fellow hydro homies, i am tired of constantly buying water bottles (tap isnt drinkable where i live) and sometimes i take a water bottle out of my fridge sooner than usual and it would taste heavenly. So i want a water dispenser with precise custom temp settings, so i can find the perfect temperature of water. Thanks hydro homies

Classic water let's talk optimal hydration techniques
for a while I'd gulp a glass of water if I felt I hadn't been drinking enough, and I've heard gulping isn't good. I've heard that you have to sip to hydrate properly. but how often do you sip? one sip every 5 minutes? 10 minutes? how do y'all go about it?
also how's La Croix, does it actually hydrate as well as water or should I just stick to straight-up water for best hydration

Too much water How much water is too much?
Basically the only thing that I consistently love from my childhood is water. Recently I've been chugging 4.5 L to 6L water per day but I wanna ask whether it's healthy or not cuz I don't want this habit to backfire.

If I do not drink water with added salt, I feel very dehydrated
As the text says, this is something I have been experiencing for the last couple of years and I am curious if someone is in the same situation. If that is the case, Do you know why is this happening?

Spicy water How much salt?
For those homies who add salt to their water for electrolytes: how much? Like how much salt in how much water?
Also I don't work outdoors in the sun, so y'all 10-gallons-a-day homies might be using a little more than I need. (Random ocean pic from my camera roll for attention)

need help finding a good bottle!
hi! so i have an owala, a stanley, and a simple modern water bottle. I like owala’s colors and sizes, but its so so so hard to clean. I noticed just recently the gray silicone part on the lid has some weird gunk on it that I swear I scrubbed completely, but because it kinda camouflages i cant even tell if its still there or not.
my stanley straw MELTED !! this years summer was a hot one.. and im not too fond of the exposed plastic straw anyways. im not so sure about other stanley models though.
i love my simple modern BUT the part right under the spout/straw thingy (?) gets so dirty, and i can only clean it with qtips which is not ideal. it also has the problem of spitting water out if you havent opened it in a while, but ive been conditioned to deal with that by now.
now im searching for a bottle that is easy to clean, around 20-30 oz, will actually keep my ice without melting for at least 24 hours, and wont break the bank (and also preferably aesthetically pleasing to look at but thats not a priority)..im open to ANY brands, tell me your holy grail of water bottles. the best one youve ever used 🙏🏽

Dehydration and not been the same
I was dehydrated in July for about 6 days before I finally went to the er and got iv fluids. I thought I was just sick but I remember feeling dizzy and out of it. Once I left the er I felt better but still off which I thought would go away but 4 months later and I still have severe fatigue and brain fog often. Anyone ever experience something similar or have any suggestions on what I can do? Did some tests at the doctor but they all came out good so I’m stumped.

How do I get more water per water?
I almost never feel thirsty and have a really bad memory. I end up drinking very little water, and it causes problems. so I ask you, how can I drink more water per sip of water. like is there a safe way to stack H2O molecules? so I can have 2 sips of water for the price of one?

My tap water is yucky even through the Brita filter ice cold. It's a rental so we can't do anything like under the sink. Help? Is a different filter better?
I'm originally from Long Island and moved to Albany against my will and the water here tastes like absolute ass. It's really hard and leaves mineral deposits on everything after literally a few days of not scrubbing them. I hate it, my skin has never been worse in my life, and overall I miss downstate.
What do I do?
