I just purchased one of these Biogreen bottles from Amazon.com and so far so good, the bottle is durable and leaves no after taste. I think this is the 4th reusable, BPA free bottle i’ve acquired since starting the greenerist site. The unique thing about these BPA, DEHA and DEHP free water bottles are that they can be recycled or can biodegrade in a landfill between 1-5 years after your using it.
