How often do you break a glass bottle?

I broke 3 glass water bottles (they even had the little rubber sleeves to try and protect them) before I gave up and settled for stainless steel. Twice I broke them in the gym. Really awkward trying to clean up glass and water without causing a scene.

You are buying crappy water bottles. How often do you break a beer bottle? Those are much thicker than crappy water bottles. Acqua Panna bottles are even thicker.

I've never broken either one unless it fell on cement. Use cheaper glass bottles and stop dropping your bottles on cement.

I don’t break beer bottles because I don’t drink beer, especially not at the gym? But last I checked I see broken beer bottles all the time. I’m talking about refillable 24oz glass water bottles with slightly wider mouths for drinking quickly while working out and easier cleaning.

And I’m not dropping them on cement. :( That’s wonderful for you that you don’t drop things, but some people do so those of us buy more durable products. I’m not sure why you’re so aggressive about it.
