disclaimer: I was sent the following products from Eco Vessel in order to facilitate this review.
When you have kids in school they need a reusable water bottle. Otherwise they’re getting up to the fountain and teachers start complaining. No one has the time to really allow every kid to get up and water water. So water bottles are a must. Then you realize you should probably get yourself one too.
Eco Vessel has you covered! They’ve got insulated water bottles, filtered water bottles, GLASS bottles, and even water bottles that are stainless steel and have a flip straw.
They also have kiddo versions…
When you have a toddler, they want what their older siblings have. So of course. Risiel now needed her own bottle too. Eco Vessel was kind enough to send Ris a bottle, and me a bottle!
Risi’s bottle is the Scout Kids Stainless Steel Water Bottle With Flip Straw, and is 13 fl. oz. Thanks to it being stainless steel, she’s dropped it so many times and it’s yet to even show a single mark! Thank goodness, because plastic sippies just don’t cut it very well if dropped from a shopping cart onto a store floor. Grocery store floors are HARD, and too many times we’ve had a sippy break from the fall, or the lid breaks and… it’s a mess.
If you’re looking for a good reusable bottle for your toddler, I’d highly suggest taking a look at the Scout Kids bottles at Eco Vessel.
For myself, I got this awesome Aqua Vessel Insulated Filtration Water Bottle! I loooove ice water, but I hate how some water tastes. Our water here is hard water (blech) and I’m not always able to just get water from the fridge filter pitcher. If I’m out and about, and the place I’m at has gross water… I don’t want to drink it even though I need to. So this bottle is perfect! The color is Turquoise Glow, annnnd it keeps my water cold overnight so if I have a bottle of water in here next to the bed I can go to sleep and wake up as needed to take a drink. No more warm yucky water. Just cold happy water!
The filter can filter 100+ gallons, and you can buy replacement filters, or simply use the bottle with the included second longer straw without a filter. Which is good too.

The verdict?
I’m happy to have a great bottle at my side! I can drink more water when doing things without worrying it might taste awful, or get warm way too fast. I don’t need a ton of ice cubes if my bottle is keeping the water cold. So I use less ice as well. 🙂
Very much a win and I’m very happy with my experiences with Eco Vessel.
