Not only that, but the bottles contain BPA which is a synthetic estrogen.

Bisphenol A - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Updated repeat after me: "No more plastic bottles, or #7 plastic, or things that leach BPA or aluminum...": Brave New Leaf

I now use stainless steel bottle (like Kleen Kanteen) and we have bee using Brita filters on our tap water for many years. Our town has local wells, and the water is pretty hard (lots of iron and manganese, etc.) and the Brita filtered water tastes much better. You can do a double blind test and pick the difference any time. Coffee tastes much better, too with filtered water.
