Camelbak Relay Water Pitcher Giveaway - 3 Winners

I have been a long standing fan of Camelbak products.  I've had one of their hiking backpacks with the internal bladder systems for probably 15 years, in addition to other products.  I've found their water systems to hold up well under rigorous use over time.  Recently, they sent me one of their BPA-free Camelbak Relay water pitchers to try. 

First, I found that it is easy to use, and dishwasher safe.  Even Pierce, who is 7, is able to use the pitcher and refill it, as the lid is spill-proof and stays securely in place with side-locking latches.  Holding 10 cups of water, it has a slimline shape so it doesn't take up too much space in the fridge. 

On the top, there is a handy dial system to remind you of when you need to change the filtration system.  The filters need to be changed every 4 months - they last twice as long as the leading competitor.

Then, just flip the top to refill the pitcher.  I cannot stand to drink room temperature water, but I've found if I have cold water in the fridge at all times, I am much more likely to drink it throughout the day.  The filter removes 97% of chlorine, taste, and odor.
We've been very pleased with Camelbak's Relay Water Pitcher.  The water is very refreshing and tastes wonderful.  You can find out more about their products by becoming a fan of their Facebook site.  Camelbak Relay water pitchers are available at Target, Amazon, and Camelbak.com. 

Disclaimer:  I was sent a Camelbak Relay for review purposes.  I was not compensated in any other way for this post.  The opinions above are my own. 

Three lucky winners will receive a Camelbak Relay of their own!  To enter, just click on the Rafflecopter giveaway below.  Good luck!

    WE are a Camelbak house too. We finally got the ICE bottles last weekend, and they really do keep the ice longer than the CHILL bottles. Check them out.

    AS for what I learned about the Relay, I saw the dimensions I needed to see if it would fit in my fridge. "Maybe" if I make room on the bottom shelf.

    How can a filter last four months without getting bacterial growth in it? I guess thay assume you have a lot of chlorine in the water. We have well water so only a trace of chlorine when we drop it in the well.

    When we lived in a place with public water, I noticed an orange film in a filter pitcher after about 3 weeks. It was a biofilm, from bacterial growth. Icky. Our water was chlorinated but not heavily because it was mountain water.

    Look at sweet Pierce; he's got that down pat. I've actually not heard of this product but my granddaughter and family could use it; they have well water which in their case doesn't taste "well". :)

    I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

    I'm with you--I like cold water. I buy bottled water because I don't like the taste of tap, but I really need to get one of these and cut down on my use of plastic.

    The link you listed didn't work for me but on their site about the pitchers, I learned that it removes "chloramine, chlorine, taste, and odors twice" which is good--our water here is not too tasty.

    Hi Lisa, The first water backpack I had was one of the Camelbak ones. I liked it --and probably still have it (somewhere)... BUT--when I switched to a camera backpack I quit using the Camelbak ones...

    Thanks for the info on the new pitcher. Glad you like it. I think Camelbak is definitely a good company.

    Have a great holiday weekend.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

    That's interesting! My Dad used to say, "Always drink bottled water". I have a Camelbak that hold 34 ounces of Propel or Sparkling Ice. I used it for hiking, (until I burned out on hiking)and now use it when I cycle. I agree, a good product.

    they have a military and tactical section.

    also, their filtered bottles are "60 seconds to filtered water". this would be great for overseas when our troops are drinking foreign water that may not be completely clean or sterilized.
