What water bottles are completely free from the problem of weird chipping/shavings of the material which could put material in the water, even when dropping it or when using Bottle Bright tablets?

if you're worried about microplastics, consider a stainless steel bottle. Clean Canteen is a solid brand that doesn't put plastic films on the inside.

but I've only had a 'problem' with rather old bottles cracking (crazing, technically,) from age. Bottle Bright might be more harsh and prematurely aging your bottle if you consistently have a problem. I just use warm water and a scrubby somewhat regularly.

Any idea if ceramic linings contain epoxy or plastic?
- Assuming you’re just using it for water or something and not actively cooking, a good bottle should be fine- the ceramic lining is basically sintered on at high heat and will improve the inertness of the pan.
  Cheaper versions I’d stay away from (same as cheap aluminum or stainless bottles.)
- There was a recent post somewhere bringing attention to how ceramic pans are often not truly ceramic but an amalgamation that includes more questionable materials and/or being only a thin layer covering lower quality metal that could leach. That would make me wary of bottles with ceramic linings

I have a stainless steel bottle, 40oz. I have never seen what you are asking.

Uhh what? I have never encountered a water bottle getting chipped or leaving shavings. Are you literally making your own bottle?

I've heard of people complain that steel bottles that use steel tops "scrape" together when you are using the lids, and that can cause metal particles to shed into the water.
That's one of the reasons why most steel bottles have plastic lids.
I've seen chipping on two black plastic Hydro Flask wide mouth lids, and it looks unsafe.
The last time I drank out of a reusable bottle, I felt a string-like thing on my tongue, and when I grabbed it out, it was black, and way too thick to be hair. I don't know for sure where it came from, and I'm only 80% sure it's a problem with the bottle or lid.
The metal version of the Hydro Flask wide mouth lid has a 1-star review about "yummy metal shavings".
- Sounds like Hydro Flask might have some QA issues. Perhaps seek metal and an alternative brand with good ratings.

Metal, glass or ceramics are all fine as long as you fill them yourself with tap water. Bottled water from the store often contains microplastics that got in there during the filling process so the container material isn't the only thing to consider.

Been using them for 15 years; the bottles get a few dents in them, but I’ve even been able to hammer most of those out.

Haven’t used a plastic water bottle since the early 90s.

Any bottles that are not plastic. So glass or metal.

What about Glass Bottles?
