What are the benefits of a Platypus bottle?

There are two main Platypus water bottles: the Platypus Meta Bottle with Microfilter system and the Platypus DuoLock SoftBottle. The Meta bottle is useful because it has a built-in filter that helps keep you safe if you need to get water from the environment. Plus, you can easily disassemble it, clean the filter, or replace the microfilter as you use it, so you always get clean, fresh water with every sip. The DuoLock SoftBottle is also extremely useful because it is packable and lightweight. Since it functions like a hydration reservoir, but it has a handle like a water bottle. It is BPA free and you can roll it up when it is empty to take up minimal space.

What is the best way to clean a Platypus bottle?

If you’re trying to disinfect your water bottle, the best way to do this is by using household bleach. Use only 2-5 drops per liter that the bottle holds, then fill it with water. Secure the bottle tightly and shake it a few times, and then let it sit overnight. The next day, dump the solution and rinse the bottle thoroughly with hot water several times to remove any lingering bleach. This kills any bacteria that may be inside and cleans it thoroughly.

How many times can a Platypus bottle be reused?

There is no hard limit to how many times you can reuse a Platypus water bottle. These hydration systems are built to last, so as long as you clean them regularly you can continue to use them.
