Pros: What’s good about the Fit Cap Bottle?
Durability: I have used this bottle over the course of several months in a wide variety of different fferent places and situations. From normal life to going around town, to hiking, to train travel touring Scandanavian fjords, it has held up well. Also, the coating makes it resistant to chips and scrapes.
Flexibility: It has held both hot and cold drinks, and it does great with both. Carrying this bottle relieves decision making when you don’t know what your next drink is going to be.
Handle: The handle is a really great feature. It is surprisingly comfortable to carry it by the handle. I have also hooked it by the handle to a carabiner on my backpack as I made my way across Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. It is nice that when the handle is not up, it lays flat on the top of the bottle and doesn’t catch on anything.
Size: I like this size as well. It fits well into the side pocket of my backpacks.
Who shouldn’t buy this bottle?
This is a metal bottle, so if you are prone to dropping things, there will be dents. This isn’t a bottle to replace your squeeze bottle at the gym, or in the sauna.
Conclusion:
This is a great bottle from Camelbak and is a very versatile option for on the go and at home. A great size, very flexible use, and durable. Highly recommended.
