Camelbak Groove

Top Pro

Convenient to store, comfortable to handle

This bottle won't leak if it tips over, or if you throw it in your bag. If the cap is screwed on properly, it does not let any water through. The straw won't let water spill out of it even when not in an upright position. The integrated loop handle lets you carry it around comfortably in your hand, or you can attach it to your backpack with a carabiner. It also fits most cup holders. The bottle itself is sturdy, and it will survive most falls. See More

Top Con

Harder to drink from than bottles without a filter

Since you need to use the filter to drink water from the bottle, you need to use much more force to drink from it. Although this applies to all water bottles with filters, the Camelbak Groove is slightly easier to drink from than other similar bottles. See More

Top Pro

Environmentally friendly filters

The filters in this Camelbak are made of charcoal ( which is a plant based material), so both manufacturing and recycling is easy on the environment. See More

Top Con

Filters need to be changed regularly

The filters used in this bottle are not reusable, so that means you will need to keep spending money on fresh filters. You might also need to carry a spare filter if you're not sure when your current one will expire, as it's difficult to keep track of their freshness. See More

Top Pro

Great for people sensitive to tastes and smells

The Camelbak Groove is designed to remove unpleasant tastes or smells from tap water, and it does just that. Instead of buying bottled water, you can fill the Camelbak up with tap water from almost anywhere, and it will taste clean. See More

Camelbak Quick Grip Podium Chill

Top Pro

Does not leak

You don't have to worry about getting wet with this bottle, since it has a valve that keeps water from leaking out even when being swung around (as you swing your hands when running). To take a sip, just squeeze the bottle and the valve opens to let water pass through. For times when you are not using it, you can turn the valve to a locked position to be absolutely sure it won't leak in case it tips over or when you're holding it in your bag. See More

Top Con

Hard to find the perfect hand position

Most of your palm will be snug in the sleeve, but you might have to fidget for a while until you find a comfortable position for your thumb. There are indents on the bottle, supposedly for thumb placement, but it still takes some getting used to. See More

Top Pro

Easy to open

The Camelback Quick Grip has a screw top, which is covered with a rubbery material, so you can easily open it even if your hands are sweaty. See More

Top Con

Not comfortable for long runs

As with any handheld bottle, you will want to switch hands after a certain amount of time, which can be fidgety and interfere with your run. Some users have also reported that the strap becomes loose and needs adjusting every so often. See More

Top Pro

Comfortable to hold

The strap that goes under your palm is padded for extra comfort, and the strap that goes over your palm is adjustable. This makes the bottle cling to your hand, instead of your hand having to cling to the bottle, thus avoiding cramps. See More

Top Con

Most smartphones don't fit in the pouch

The sleeve has a rather small pouch for keys, gels, money or ID cards, but it is not nearly large enough to fit most smartphones. If you want to take your phone with you, you'd need to figure out another way of carrying it. See More

Top Pro

Easy to run with

The Camelbak Quick Grip is lightweight, and holds more water than other handheld bottles, which makes for a good balance between the amount of weight you need to carry and the amount of water you can take with you in a single bottle. Many cheaper handheld bottles are also smaller, so you'd have to refill them more often, or plant water bottles along your route thereby interrupting your run more often. See More

Top Pro

Keeps liquid cool

This insulated bottle will keep your drink cool (or cold, if you add ice cubes) on a very hot day for about 3 hours, which is much longer than any non insulated bottle. See More
