Yet another product cheaped-out on to the point of inferiority, under the guise of "going green". Nothing green about it. The bottle sucks because the company needed to save a nickel - same reason GM sucks. Shitty parts that won't make it 40k miles. Lighter, faster. cheaper ... company saves a buck at your expense. Quality has gone right down the shitter in EVERYTHING ... (except
Coal Jack stoves made right here by forum member Jim D!

)
Wife bought bottled water once, right around the time Poland Spring also cheaped-out on their plastic. I used to re-use the bottles by washing them in the dishwasher, & filling them up with my filtered & softened well water (just as good as any bottled). Now the damn things are so friggin flimsy they collapse & crush in the dishwasher. If you drop them full, they blow out! Useless crap. Dasani is the only water with normal plastic bottles (made by Coke Corp.), so I might buy a case just for the bottles. At least they were last fall .... who knows now ..... I'd better check.
Who the hell would buy water that you can't even set down without cranking the cap back on? What a joke ...
