Hydrapak Crush Bottle (500ml)
Space is like gold-dust when you're travelling for a long period of time, so what's more perfect than a collapsible water bottle? Hydrapak's Crush water bottle saves crucial amounts of space so you can pack some more essentials you'll need.
Hydrapak have created the perfect water bottle, where minimal design meets durable construction. The Crush bottle was designed to attach to the front of your pack leaving you with plenty of pack room for other essential items. The cap is high-flow with a self-sealing bite valve to ensure you don't spill water on yourself whilst drinking. The Crush bottle has a 42mm opening with a flip top cap so it's easy to fill. The soft material used conforms to the hand whilst the bottle shrinks as your drink reducing the movement of the water within. The ultra durable TPU makes sure it can withstand the elements. Liquid can be frozen inside of it, whilst hot water up to 60° C can be filled in it. The Crush is also BPA and PVC free which helps the environment. With plastic waste being a huge current problem for our world, the sustainable and ethically designed bottle will help you reduce your need to buy single-use bottle from the shop only to throw it away once used.

Unfortunately the taste this product imparts into water makes it wholly unsuitable as a drinking bottle. I have tried rinsing thoroughly, washing with soap and water, soaking in lime juice and water and finally tried soaking in a mixture of baking soda and citric acid. I contacted Hydrapak and they suggested adding lemon juice and water then freezing overnight. I have also tried filling with fresh water every day for a couple of weeks. None of these things have helped.
Adding a hydration tablet does help though this doesn't change the fact that some chemical either in the plastic or some other residual product from the manufacturing process is leeching into the fluid I am drinking, even if I can mask the taste. I understand that there is currently no evidence that any of the materials they use are toxic (they meet or surpass current safety standards, apparently) but it is still a concern since what gets discovered as harmful changes over time as we learn more about these things. I can put up with the taste but am not happy to be ingesting some unknown chemical.
The bottle's other features are great - it crushes down wonderfully and the non-drip cap works very well. Hill and Dale delivery was great too. It is a shame I bought two of them as they are just not useable.
Excellent product, lightweight and very easy to use. Hill and Dale Outdoors posted my item very quickly and securely. I will highly recommend using them for all your outdoor needs.
I love hydrapak water bottles and needed to replace my 500ml one after losing it. Hill & Dale gave the best price and excellent service. I would buy from them again.
It's really good, only problem I had with it for about a week was a strong plastic taste when water was left inside the bottle for around an hour. It's barely there now and does not bother me anymore. Such a great bottle to carry around, very comfortable to drink from. I love that it squishes down, I tend to carry it half full in my bag and then fill up fully at work and at the gym.
