Is the material any tougher than the Elements bottle?

I haven't used an Elements bottle, but the Vapur bottles are made of a very strong material. I haven't been very gentle with mine and it's still in great condition.

A little, not much. I used mine 3 days a week for 2 months at work (desk job) before it started leaking. The leak was in the usual place- on the top where the bag is sealed around the rigid opening

I would say it's tougher than Dockers without a doubt. I have found the material to be very comfortable in summer and winter and to be of a good strong material, soft yet strong.

The name implies that the material is hard, but it's not a brittle hard. It's not exactly soft either. I really like it.

I really don't know. The bottle seems kind of explicit about metal parts. Maybe they think Teflon is slick enough without it.

Not hard At all I never had trouble I actually went to a bigger bottle now the little heavier but it last longer that one you have to be more careful with

I have a red one that I dropped, and it chipped the color coating off. The regular stainless colored bottles are best if you are going to be doing a lot of hiking, camping, etc. because there isn't a coating to chip off.

We have been using ours for many months with 5 gallon plastic bottles. No problems whatever. It seems quite strong.

If you mean tough glass, no. It's not extremely lightweight but it's not very thick

Glass bottle is easy to clean. Also contains no chemicals. This bottle is super heavy duty. We dropped it on the floor a few times, it is still in good condition.

Yes to me it's much stronger a more durable you can get more details at www.chemicalguys.com or check out on YouTube.

The ones I received are very tough. They are more like a "freezer" strength bag rather than the flimsy sandwich or regular type ziploc bag. I use them for delicate supplements when traveling but have used them for many other items including jewelry.

It doesn't stand up to being dropped. I had a lot of problems with the top bursting open when dropped, and the latch on the lid ultimately gave it up one day. Replaced it with a standard screw-top Nalgene; more work to open, but definitely no durability issues.

I think the plastics made these days won't wear out in our lifetimes. I'd say it's pretty durable; up at bear camp I kept this on my belt attached by a bicycle inner-tube chunk, it didn't move and held up fine in thick cover. I highly recommend this, may want to put some super glue on the fire rod handle where it attaches to the rod as that was the first thing that failed but was a quick-n-easy fix.

I never heard of Nalgene Bottles, but what I have is a hard plastic, very sturdy. Love the ring so I can carry it around while I workout, plus the no leak lid is great.

First answer went thru before i finished. Mine was heavy plastic bottle. Good flavor to this item.

Found the grade on their website: food grade type 304 18/8 stainless steel. No aluminum and it is not lined with plastic. We use glass bottles but were traveling and wanted something more sturdy. Bonus that it converts to a sippy cup (baby is still trying to figure it out though, you really need to suck to get anything out). I'm happy with this purchase so far, but haven't had it long enough/used it enough yet to write a proper review. Hope this helps :)

Yes it is some kind of very, very tough plastic. We are very pleased with this aquarium----Fluval makes excellent aquarium products---I have their pump for my 180 gallon aquarium and feel they are leaders in the fish business.
