Nalgene N-Gen Lexan Bottle

love it and the design
I love the amount of water it holds, the new design, great colors, holds lots of water!!! Also, it has a narrow mouth to drink from which is easier to drink from so fewer spills on my shirt!

Handy container!
This water bottle is quite handy...I find myself using it to carry extra water for myself and the dog on adventures. It's not as easy to use as the one with a straw, but the cap goes on and off with ease, which makes it nice to use.

Best Nalgene available
This new generation nalgene is great. I bought one when I acquired my new job in construction. I have dropped, crushed, just about everything you can do to these bottles and it is still in great shape.

One Tough Bottle
I dropped this bottle about 20 times already, and it still strong and durable. I love the engine red colour, but I have the parrot colour which looks great too. The only thing I disliked about the bottle is the size of the bottle opening. It's not small enough to drink steadily if you're in a car or running on a treadmill, so I had to buy a bottle cap thingy to make the opening smaller. Besides that, the bottle is great and it will definitely last a long time.

As good as ever
Smooth new design, bombproof materials, and a solid new 'biner-compatible lid make this a sweet evolution for the classic Nalgene. It's actuallly a little taller than the old-school 32-ouncer, but the smaller radius lets you tuck it in a few more places for H2O on the go. Nice work, Nalgene!

Excellent
Another great product from Nalgene. Great design for attaching via carbiner (better than breaking loops on the original bottle) on any pack or other piece of equipment.

Indestructible!
Another great Nalgene product! This bottle looks good, is easy to hold and is as tough as nails! The carabineer loop cap means no more lost water bottles! Buy this bottle – you can’t go wrong!

Super!
No one compares to the great Nalgene! I`ve already dropped this little baby (full, might I add) twice and of course, no breaky. Stylish, practical and sturdy- all you could ask for in a water bottle. This is the cheapest I`ve found it for on altrec.com

Very Satisfied With This Purchase
This is an excellent water bottle for work and gym. The pros: -looks good -very convenient size and shape -extremely sturdy -plastic has no taste, unlike some water bottles -great value The cons: -you have to be pretty diligent about washing it or it will start to smell a little -the opening does not accomodate hand scrubbing

Greatest Bottle
Greatest water bottle ever. One goes with me to work every day and into the dish washer every night. Seals well enough for soda on day trips and won't stain with berry juices. Ordering more of them today.

N-Gen is GOOD!
The next genereation nalgene are much better than the older ones because the top is much more secure and doesn't break easily. The smaller mouth is much easier to drink out of than the wide mouth but easier to put drinks in than the narrow mouth bottles. I think I will buy another one when they come out with new colors!

The best price I've seen!
I like the new cap on the N-Gen bottles. Several times the rings have slipped off my older Nalgene bottles from tethering them so much :) The website photos aren't nearly as vivid as the actual bottle colors-I love that!

Cool look, good size, Nalgene quality
I was looking for a new bottle for work and for the gym, and settled on the N-Gen by Nalgene. The look of the bottle is great: sleek and stylish, you'll definitely get comments carrying it around. It holds 24 oz. of water and then some, has a widemouth, and a sturdy, detached, rubber screw-cover with a finger-hole for holding. I definitely recommend this bottle. The only question is which color to get (I bought one of each!).

Best bottle you can buy
This is the best water bottle I've ever owned. It is easy to grip, carry, fill, and drink out of. It looks cool too. For the ounce-cutting backpackers out there, you may want to stick with the original nalgene because it is lighter. For the rest of us (or the backpackers with stronger backs) the lid is very nice. It spins on and off with the greatest of ease and it simple to grip and hold. It is also nice that the measurement on the side is part of the bottle rather than printed onto the bottle.

One of the best investment I have ever made
I love the new design. I can throw it, hang it, drop it, anything. Nothing gets damaged. It's mauch easier to carry than the old nalgenes. This one has much better hand holds. It also holds a grand total of 32ozs if filled to the brim.

Nalgene Quality with new design.
This new Nalgene bottle has the same great quality of all bottles with a great new design. I really like the rubber on the cap for easy grip. It's also easier to hold than a big bottle and has a good sized top for easy drinking.

Solid durable water bottle
This bottle is great, nice slim design. The cap is not attached like other nalgene's, so keep track of it! Also, if jostled around too much, the cap can loosen and leak in your gym bag, like it did in mine!

Best all around bottle
I have been using the N-gen Bottle for about a year now for various activities. I dig the fact it has a wide mouth and sturdy lid. The only downer is that it does not fit in (my) car cup holders or mountain bike water bottle cages. Nalgene has addressed the water bottle issue for standard cages with another product line.

Dishwasher
Well, this is our first Lexan water bottle and so far so good. We wish the opening was a bit larger as we like to pop ours in the dishwasher and I would just feel better about it coming out clean if I knew the jest sprays from the dishwasher could get in there and do the job via a larger mouth opening. Plus, it'd be nice if there were more colors. And, it be nice if the lid had some way of being attached to the bottle so that we wouldn't have to worry about dropping it when drinking from it (especially important when bouncing around on a run on the treadmill). I was thinking about GSI's .75 but the shipping from REI pushed me towards altrec instead. If you can get it ship to store then maybe you should go with the GSI as it's cheaper and doesn't have the "brand name" mark-up. Otherwise, we like the bottle and the price from altrec is the best around, especially if you get in on a free shipping deal.

Cool, but no big deal.
You can get the 32 oz. narrow mouth for the same price. Granted, the N-Gen holds more than 24 oz. (closer to 28 when topped off) has a sleek design with a cool cap, but I don't like how the cap doesn't have the option of staying attached to the bottle when off. The mouth is a wider than the narrow mouth but narrower than the wide mouth, a nice in between but I still prefer the narrow mouth.

Some features I like, some I don't...
I love that this bottle fits in my cup holder! I do,however, miss the attached lid. And if you get the lid screwed on tight, it's a bear to get off. Otherwise, it's a good quality Nalgene!

The bottle is ok - I like the shape, the opening - but it does start to smell very quickly.
