Overview

A screw top lid with continuous semi-buttress threads seals the wide mouth of this Nalgene Silo bottle. The wide opening takes ice cubes, frozen fruit or filtration devices, and the plastic is made with recycled material.

The bottle is light and tough enough to freeze or hold hot water, and the lid is aimed at gym bags and packs. The capacity spec is clearly an error, and the listing offers no information on carry loops or lid tethers.

Who it's for

Hikers, campers and gym users who want a big, light bottle that survives drops and freezing. People wanting insulation should look at a vacuum bottle.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wide mouth for ice and filters
  • Leak-proof screw top
  • Wide temperature range
  • Dishwasher safe on the top rack
Cons
  • Capacity spec is wrong
  • Carry loop not listed

Performance notes

The wide threads seal against the rim, so the lid resists leaks in a bag, and the plastic tolerates freezing and boiling water within the stated range. Without insulation, a hot fill cools quickly and a cold fill warms through the wall.
