    I've got no suggestions for you other than wash it about 10 times. I absolutely HATE that smell. I think it's why I only have two water bottles and I have had them both for about 8 years each. =) BLECKY!

    that goofy plastic smell???? Try a heavy bleach and water solution but make sure you wash it out numerous times to get out the bleach..it should work, or I went out and bought a Sigg bottle a little spendy but its aluminum and doesnt have that smell

    Well there are a couple of things that you can do.
    The bleach thing is good but there are others.
    Baking soda with water also does the trick. Then you do not have a bleach smell.
    I have also put a can of coke in a plastic container that had a bad smell. Swish it around in there for a couple of minutes and dumb the soda down the drain. Rinse and see it that does not make it smell better.
    7 up works very well for this too.

    Wow the coke thing makes perfect sense! They said in beauty school you could use coke to get gum, wax or any other sticky things out of hair, so I have to imagine it would work in a stinky water bottle!

    And its good to know that I'm not the only one who HATES that smell! Ha ha!:ohwell:

    Thanks all!!
    The reason I want to use it is because it fits perfectly into the holder. It doesn't bounce when running.


    Ali, thanks for your love girl! It's a number 4 so I'm safe for now until they realize that 4 should have been included in the bad list!


    Thanks again!!!
