Glasstic: The Shatterproof Glass Water Bottle

If you’d happened to monitor the contents of my cabinets over the past few years, you’d have noticed one significant change.  You will find very few items packaged in plastic bottles these days.  My peanut butter, applesauce, etc. is all glass now.  I don’t like the idea of chemicals leaching into my food, so if glass is an option, that’s what I get.  I drink water all day long, and I’ve often worried about the fact that I’m still using plastic (reusable) bottles for that, but I’ve also been worried about the possibility of glass water bottles breaking.  Glass is more expensive, but the concern is mostly over the fact I have two small children running around the house…and they like to break things.

The problem has been solved by Glasstic, a 16 oz., wide mouth, shatterproof, glass bottle that is encapsulated in a BPA-free plastic shell.  Brilliant concept, don’t you think?  This means that I can drink my water without fear of chemicals or shattering glass, but it also means that my water tastes much better.  You know beverages always taste better in glass!  If you weren’t aware of that, test it out.  It’s a noticeable difference.

Some features I like in this bottle:

First, one of the several color options is pink.  That’s always a plus with me.   There is a safety lock to prevent leakage, which makes it extra portable, as does the attached handle.  It makes it very comfortable to carry on long walks, and the handle conveniently snaps closed so it’s out of the way when you don’t need it.  I can also personally attest to the fact that it’s very easy to carry when you’re hobbling around the house on crutches.  It’s pretty much the only thing I can carry while I’m on the crutches.  I’m still in pain, but at least I’m not thirsty!  Another nifty detail is how any condensation that forms will be on the glass bottle, keeping the plastic shell nice and dry.  No water rings on my nightstand?  Deal.  (In addition to breaking things, the kids seem to enjoy stealing coasters as well.)

The Glasstic bottle’s parts are easy to disassemble and reassemble for maintenance.  I really try to hand wash items that I deem delicate or important, but let’s face it:  I’m a busy mom, and I take shortcuts when I can.  Luckily, this bottle is safe to put in the top rack of the dishwasher.  Even when I do wash it by hand, it’s an easy task with my trusty bottle brush.

The Glasstic Worry Free Glass Water Bottle is a durable, portable, and possibly pink option for those who want the purity that glass provides without the breakage issue.  I wouldn’t recommend juggling these bottles, of course, because there’s still glass in there, but the protection that the outer shell offers makes it much less likely to shatter than an ordinary glass bottle.  If you do you mange to break the glass, the broken pieces will be contained within the outer shell and can be easily and safely disposed of.  You can then purchase a replacement insert for just $7.99.  That includes shipping!  That’s really a great value and it allows you to continue reusing your fabulous water bottle and enjoying your better-tasting, toxin-free water.
