EcoVessel Boulder Review
Overview
Designed in Colorado, EcoVessel's Boulder series bottles bring a lot of value to the table. Each comes with a built-in strainer, as well as a bottle boot to help protect your bottle over the long run.
One of the other clear design considerations with this bottle was to limit plastic contact with your water and your mouth. The bottom of both the lid and the spout cap are lined with stainless steel rather than plastic, and the spout has a silicone liner too. If you're looking for good value, an bottle with a built-in ice strainer, or to avoid plastic contact with your water, then EcoVessel's Boulder Series bottles are great options to consider. |

EcoVessel Boulder FAQs
- Are EcoVessel bottles dishwasher safe? | EcoVessel recommends handwashing these bottles.
- Are EcoVessel bottles good? | Yes, and with an affordable price point and more accessories included than with most bottles, EcoVessel gives you great value for what you pay.
- Do EcoVessel bottle fit in cupholders? | Their 32oz bottles will not fit in most cupholders, so consider buying an adapter like our BottlePro Max.
- Are EcoVessel bottles leak proof? | Yes, EcoVessels are leak proof as the seals are clean and correctly installed, and the lid and spout cap are closed tightly.
- Are EcoVessel bottles easy to clean? | Yes, for the most part. It's not complicated to clean, and all surfaces are easy to reach. Also, the lid seal includes a pull-tab so it's easier to remove. However, because there is a lid, spout cap, and ice strainer, there are more surfaces to clean than more basic bottles.
- Are EcoVessel bottles insulated? | Yes, they have triple-layer vacuum insulation. This bottle placed slightly above-average when we compared it against others in our collection.
- Are EcoVessel bottles stainless steel? | Yes, and this bottle goes much further than most others by lining the bottom of the lid with stainless steel too.
- Are EcoVessel bottles durable? | Yes, to an extent. Stainless steel is strong, but the bottle will dent if you drop it. The lid has plastic parts, but the fact that it includes a flexible tether means it should be more resistant to breaking than hard-plastic tethers or handles found on many other bottles.

Recommended Accessories
Bottle Brush Kit
Great for your regular cleaning every 2-4 days.
This kit includes a large brush to clean in the bottle, a detailing brush to clean the threads and lid, a straw cleaner, and hangers so you can stay organized. |
Cleaning Tablets
Recommended to use these once per month.
In additional to regular weekly cleaning, deep-cleaning your bottle once per month is usually a good idea to prevent germs and buildup, especially around seals. |
Cup Holder Adapter
Usually needed for bottles over 3" diameter.
Our BottlePro Max has a twist-to-expand base, removable centralizing tabs, and a grip pad to help keep your bottle secure and by your side. |
And Just for Fun (and Better Tasting Water)
Fruit Infuser
As a bonus, check out our FlavorFuze Pod drop-in fruit infuser to make your water fun! Skip the soda or flavor pods with artificial sweeteners (like Cirkul) and add healthy flavors with natural fruit each day. The pod is easy to remove when you're done thanks to a big handle on top, making for a healthy mid-day snack.
It comes with two lids. One is a splash-guard style lid that fits in wide mouth Hydro Flasks, and the other is a drop-in style lid that fits in nearly all wide mouth bottles (including Owala FreeSips, YETI Ramblers, Stanley Quenchers, Hydro Flasks, and many more). |
