EcoUsable Stainless Steel Water Bottle Review and Giveaway

One of the biggest small things we can do to help improve our planet is reduce our use of plastics. My husband and I have always recycled and try our best to avoid using small plastic water bottles. Sometimes I give in and buy a case of small waters just for convenience. I find myself feeling bad about the one time use of the bottle and the amount of energy needed just to recycle the plastic bottle. I have considered a stainless steel water bottle but for one reason or another I have never purchased one. It seems to be one of those I will buy it next time items but it should be on the top of your list of eco friendly items to buy.

I was very delighted with the quality of the BPA free stainless steel bottles we were sent to review from EcoUsable. The bottles are vibrantly colored and they have several designs to choose from. I have reviewed other bottles that leave a funny taste in the water but the EcoUsable bottles leave no taste in the water. I like that they have a variety if sizes available for different members of the family. The bottles hold cold to warm liquids like milk, water or juice. I have been using the bigger water bottle to store water for his bottles when we are on the go. I just stick it in his diaper bag along with his smaller school bus design 10 oz bottle filled with juice and we are prepared to not be dehydrated on our adventure.

Bottles We Reviewed

Overall we loved our stainless steel water bottles and I can feel better knowing we are doing a small part to not add to the over consumption of plastics in our environment and look cool doing it! Living in the California heat I look forward to using these bottles over and over this upcoming summer. I loved the eco-school bus design for my son and I also would love to have the Wally the Whale ( this is just like his book and I so need to get him this bottle) and the Doodle design for kids in the 10 oz size.

You can find EcoUsable water bottles and their other products at Whole Food Markets, Safeway and Nugget supermarkets.
