File this under “stuff I bought for my family”: reusable glass water bottles
Introduction (for those new to this website):
Tamara Rubin is a federal-award-winning independent advocate for consumer goods safety and a documentary filmmaker. She is also a mother of Lead-poisoned children, her sons were acutely Lead-poisoned in 2005. Since 2009 Tamara has been using XRF testing (a scientific method used by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission) to test consumer goods for toxicants (specifically heavy metals), including Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Antimony, and Arsenic. All test results reported on this website are science-based, accurate, and replicable. Items are tested multiple times, to confirm the test results for each component. Tamara’s work was featured in Consumer Reports Magazine in February of 2023.

These are the water bottles I bought for my family early on in the pandemic. We used these every day on our cross-country camping trip. I love them! (I have always loved this brand!) Aflink: https://amzn.to/3rnoG6U

Are these lead free?
Yes
I lLOVE this brand too but naturally accidents happen – once you drop it, it shatters and have had to replace a few. So we switched over to metal ones.
Are the lids plastic and if so, how safe do you think those are as far as containing toxic chemicals? I was hoping to find our son a less toxic water bottle but it seems the lids are always the issue. Most are plastic.
I prefer plastic to silicone – since the top doesn’t touch the water in general – I don’t have a huge issue with it personally.
