Great travel bottle
Took on trip to NYC and it was perfect. Easily folded down when not in use and fit in small bag. Lightweight, durable, great design.

Fantastic travel option… unless it leaks.
I purchased a 3-pack of these for my wife, daughter, and I. We travel regularly, and I was tired of wasting carry-on space with giant, solid containers. I was really impressed with the build of the water-bottle itself. The triangle shape remains a bit more rigid than others once filled. It felt like I was actually holding a water bottle, not a water balloon. It collapses easily to an incredibly small size, and it’s really easy to fill with the wide neck. Yes, the water bottles have a bit of an odd smell from manufacturing, but there are simple instructions on how to remove the odor, and after a little vinegar, the smell was much better. This was looking like a really good purchase, but…When I gave these a test, I found two of the three leaked! One leaks from the neck of the lid. It’s a VERY small, slow leak, so it doesn’t make the bottle completely useless. I wouldn’t leave it full and turned sideways in a pack, but it’s still useful for carrying around as long as it remains mostly upright. The other bottle has a pinhole leak in the side of the bottle. As soon as it’s filled a water bead starts forming on the side, and it’s enough to drip every few seconds. This one is absolutely unusable! The third one works flawlessly… it seals well and doesn’t drip at all.So, if you get lucky and get working ones, these water bottles are an essential! But it seems like there are still some consistency issues that need work!

Perfect
Very impressive Bottle. Great price and fast delivery..Easy cleanup

Infitran Collapsible Water Bottles, BPA-Free Leak-Proof Silicone Foldable Water Bottle
Whereas these are well made and work as described….we were unable to rid it of taste and odor issues…boiled water, used tea, worked on it as recommended…was unsuccessful.rlw

I love the concept of this squishy, compact, silicone water bottle. It arrived fully compacted in a box that was under 3″x3″x3″. I like that you unfold the bottle in satisfying “clicks” as you twist the bottle. I followed the cleaning instructions to first boil the whole thing in a pot of water for a few minutes, then I rinsed it out with colder water until it was comfortable to touch, then I washed it with mild detergent. I put tap water inside the bottle and it tastes no different than tap water from any other plastic bottle.The design incorporates a rubbery carrying strap which doubles as the clasp to keep the bottle tightly closed down when empty. The spout is plastic and clamps onto the neck of the bottle, with a screw-top lid and another screw cap to open and close the top. I got a version with no straw. While I like this better for gulping water, one of the flaws of this design is that the cap unscrews right off and can get lost, there’s no tether or anything to hold it down. I also noticed that, of course, the silicone body of the water bottle flops around, and takes some getting used to.Sadly, one flaw of this design is that water can leak out at the spaces where the silicone bottle meets the plastic ring. In ordinary every day use, you might not find this to be a problem, but this would give me pause before stashing the bottle inside a backpack or bag. I tested by filling the bottle with water and closing the lid shut. Then I squeezed around the bottle to see what would happen. It took quite a bit of jiggling and squeezing and shaking before water started to come out, but it did.A small issue on what is otherwise a very clever little water bottle. I’d keep it in the exterior pockets of my backpack to avoid the possibility of it dribbling onto my belongings accidentally.

OverallThe Infitran water bottle offers a unique collapsible design that saves space when empty. It’s made of soft silicone, and while comfortable to hold, it can be awkward to drink from as the bottle loses its shape when the water is low. It doesn’t retain cool temperatures as well as traditional bottles, but it could be a good option for short hikes or situations where space is limited.Packaging and SetupThe Infitran water bottle comes in a compact box with the bottle itself, an extra strap, and instructions for removing any potential initial odour.Performance and ExperienceThe bottle has a soft, silicone feel and folds flat like origami when empty. The included instructions for odour removal are printed in a very small font, making them difficult to read. The faint odour mentioned in the instructions wasn’t noticeable in my bottle, but a simple cleaning with dish soap addressed it completely.The collapsible design allows for compact storage, but it comes at the expense of insulation. Unlike traditional hard plastic or metal bottles, this bottle doesn’t keep water cold for extended periods. Additionally, the soft material can be awkward to hold when filled, especially as the water level goes down and the sides squeeze in.It’s important to note that I’m accustomed to using rigid water bottles, so the feel of this collapsible bottle may take some getting used to.On the positive side, the bottle is leakproof and survived a drop from about 3 feet without any issues. The large-cap can be challenging to open due to the soft body twisting, but the smaller drinking cap is easy to use.ProsThe collapsible design saves space when emptySoft light silicone materialLeakproofDurable (withstood a drop)Easy to cleanConsIt doesn’t retain cold temperatures as well as traditional bottlesIt can be awkward to drink from as the bottle loses shape when filledInstructions for odour removal are difficult to read due to the small font
