What it is
Fifty ounces in a 12.4-inch bottle with a flip-top lid, sold in 2s, 4s, 6s and 8s. Two things about it are unlike everything else on this shelf: it is plastic rather than glass, and the lid is a mechanism rather than a disc resting on a rim. Both are why the price per bottle is the lowest here, and both are why the average is the lowest in the catalogue at 4.3.
The ladder is the steepest on the shelf: $13.99 for two, $25.99 for four, $29.99 for six, $33.99 for eight — which is $7.00, $6.50, $5.00 and $4.25 a bottle. At $4.25 the eight-pack is the cheapest piece on this shelf by a clear margin. Then read the maker’s own line, which is unusually blunt and is printed further down this page: hand wash only, plastic material. A flip-top hinge and a plastic thread are precisely the parts a dishwasher destroys, and a 12.4-inch bottle 3.5 inches wide is awkward to wash by hand and impossible to reach into. That is a maintenance cost paid weekly against a saving taken once, and it is the likeliest thing behind a 4.3 on 7,209 ratings.
In use
Fits: a household that needs six or eight identical bottles of cold water in the fridge door and does not want to pay glass prices or hand glass to children. Does not fit: anyone who was going to put it in a dishwasher. The maker says hand wash only, in capitals, and a hinged plastic lid is the part that proves the point.

What the maker states
Below is the manufacturer’s own description of the product, quoted from the listing. It is their claim, not our test.
- HAND WASH ONLY, PLASTIC MATERIAL. The carafe dimensions are 3.5 x 3.5 x 12.4 inches, with a capacity of 50 oz.
What 7,209 ratings can and cannot tell you
7,209 ratings is the third largest sample here and 4.3 the lowest average, which is a more useful pair of numbers than a small sample with a high score. Two mundane explanations cover most of it: a moving lid can leak in a way a disc resting on a rim cannot, and a bottle labelled hand-wash-only will be put in a dishwasher by somebody. Neither is a manufacturing fault and neither is hidden — both are stated on the listing before any money changes hands.
The average is the retailer’s own figure across every option in this family, not a score of ours, and no review is quoted or paraphrased anywhere on this site.
