As a visual person, having one or more dedicated water bottles in front of me helps me keep reminded to keep hydrated. To be reminded, and cut down on disposable water bottles I bought this Fresh2go Filtered Bottle on Amazon.
This particular bottle has purple accents and is part of the Refresh for Cure program in which 25% of the purchase price goes to research fight a cancer type, in this case pancreatic cancer. I originally noticed the bottle for the color, one of my favorites. I was happy to learn this one supports pancreatic cancer, which has touched my life indirectly as it has taken the life of a family member.
Upon arriving I was impressed by how colorful it was and how smoothly it fit in my hands. I decided to put the spill proof claims to the test and turned it upside down. It passed my test, not a drop was spilled.
The bottle is easy to finish assembling and care for. I was able to easily get it together to start drinking. I registered for the reminder in two months to change the filter, which is sold separately. The tags showed many other colors and causes that are available.
At the bottom the bubbling filter shows the filter is unclogged and doing its job well.
Both water from home and work tasted fresh and clean as I filled up time and time again. While I do wish either an extra filter head been included or available as part of a package (Amazon didn’t even suggest one as an add on purchase which surprised me), this is a great and useful product. I may even buy more in the future to support other causes and have more bottles on my desk at work at one time.
