Best water bottle?

I'm looking for a leak - proof water bottle that is dishwasher safe. I've had several plastic ones that warp and/or leak, so I'm thinking of going in the glass or stainless steel direction. Any suggestions?

    I've used stainless or aluminum ones for 15+ years. I don't know if they would get clean enough for me in the dishwasher, and they do have a rubber/silicone seal so it may be damaged with to much heat. I bought a bottle brush at the dollar store. I have three bottles so one is always in the dish rack. A little soapy water and a drop of bleach and they're good!
  • I got this one last summer: https://www.amazon.com/Ello-Syndicate-BPA-Free-Glass-Bottle/dp/B00BUTN4ZI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1515968161&sr=8-4&keywords=water+bottle+ello

    I was sick of plastic ones that seemed to get really gross and never felt clean after a while. It says it's dishwasher safe, though I've never put it in the dishwasher. I wouldn't necessarily call it "leak-proof" - the button that clicks open the top can be easily pushed, so you can't throw it in a bag or something. But I can turn it upside-down and shake it and it doesn't leak. I've used it ever day since buying, I like it.
    (I found it at Meijer, if you have those stores)

    I’ve fallen in love with the steel. It taste so much cleaner. Plastic is disgusting

    My Nalgene has served me for several years and put up with a lot of abuse. I put it in the freezer half-full most nights, drop it multiple times a day, throw it in my work bag without leaks, etc.
