This could be the last drinking bottle you ever need purchase – the 75cl BPA-free Water-to-Go bottle comes with an internal filter that removes over 99.9% of all contaminants, making it safe to fill from streams, bathrooms, standpipes, ponds etc. and it can be used over and over again.
One filter will treat 200-litres of water (that’s roughly three months of regular use) after which you can replace it (twin packs of filters cost £14.95 with a ten per cent discount for life if you register online).
The bottle itself is partly made from recycled materials, and it’s clear to see that as well as protecting your health the Water-to-Go bottle is good for the environment as it negates the need to buy bottled water (which is a ridiculous thing to do in Britain anyway when tap water is just as clean and safe).
I used the bottle on a snowshoe trip in the French Alps, filling it from a mountain stream – the water looked and tasted as fresh and clean as you’d expect, but having the filter in the bottle took away any lingering doubts about whether it was actually as fresh and clean as it looked.
Obviously this is a great buy for travellers whether heading into the hills or heading to Third World countries and the tough build means it will take plenty of stick as well as keeping you healthy.
