"Bobble" Water bottle..amazing!

futurekilousky

So, a few weeks ago I bought a new water bottle at Target. $12, and it comes with its own filter! The big size is about a liter so I try to drink 4 or 5 a day! It is the best thing since I used to spend way too much on bottled water( not a huge fan of tap water to be honest, slightly metallic..).

The filter on these last like 200 -300 uses and in my opinion is totally worth it. Just wanted to let you guys know if you are looking for a cool looking, economical water bottle!

I bought one of those too from Target, except mines by Brita. They are absolutely awesome and cut down on water bottle waste.

Ooo those are pretty I just bought the brita one the other day...I feel so much better not throwing away water bottles

Yeah I was debating on the brita one or this one and just picked this one since the filter lasts longer. Funny because I have been watching Biggest Loser reruns and they were just talking about the Brita one!

They're too small. I need at least a liter sized one.

Interesting find! It would be cool if they made them bigger though. How do you know when to toss it (excuse me, recycle it)? I use a filtered pitcher that goes by monthly usage and not number of times. I guess you'll know when the water starts to taste unfiltered?

It says to change it every 2 months, or 300 times filling it up

Thanks for posting this. I will look for one the next time I am at Target.

Also, you just buy a new filter for like $6 and then can keep using the bottle, and you may even find a bigger bottle for the filter and top to screw on to

You said earlier the bobble filter lasts longer then the brita, but they are actually the same. You also change the brita one at the two month mark.

Bobble does last longer. Brita just must assume you drink less water.
On Brita's website: Filtering Bottles: Replace filter every 128 servings, 20 gallons or roughly every two months.

On Bobble's: Replace after 300 uses, 150 gallons, or 2 months.

20 gallons every 2 months, is like 10 gallons a month, and not economical in my opinion. Haha I do my research.

The Old Navy near me has these at the checkout counter, including the filters. They didn't, however, have a bottle that was bigger than about 16 ounces.

Yeah, exactly. I saw them at Old Navy and thought about buying one, but the biggest was, like, 20 oz or so.

Yeah I saw those! It looks like they have several sizes and I guess what size stores decide to carry is up to them

I bought one a few weeks ago and am not at all happy with it. It already fell apart and I've only used it 3 times. The filter broke off from the top. Oh well, I'm glad yours is working well!

Thanks for the review.:flowerforyou: I almost bought one last week. I'll definitely go back for one now. I figured out that if I pay $1 per liter bottle of Smart Water, that's $300...when compared to the $15 investment for one bobble. Whoo! That's a no brainer!

thanks for the tip!

I just bought one this weekend!

It doesn't last any longer. Your bottle is a liter which is 33 oz, while the brita is only 20 oz., which is a 13 oz difference All that means is more water goes through the filter in the same amount of time.. 2 months is 2 months no matter how you slice it.

I can do my research too.

I can drink the tap water in my city, Louisville, KY. But other cities nearby, not happening. They all taste like Cholrine-yuk! But good to know about those bottles. will get me one for when I am spending the day away from my home city! :drinker:

Oy vey, I'm done arguing with you about something silly. Its basic math. The size of the bottle makes no difference. It's the filter. 300 is bigger than 128.

Wait, we're arguing about 33 oz times 300 refills which equals 9900 oz. OR 20 oz. times 128 refills which equals 2580 oz.?

I think the math makes this very clear. 9900 is much higher than 2580. Bobble wins, hands down. Now, the real question is, how much do the filters cost? I think the Bobble one I saw at Old Navy was about $6.

One last thing before I leave this post.. Go read the bobble website again and you'll realize it says 150 LITERS or 40 GALLONS or every 2 months.. just like the Britas 40 Gallons or every two months. As I've said before and will say again. they are the exact same thing, the only difference is the bobbles bottle is bigger.

This may be arguing over something silly and basic math, but it's also basic reading.
