ZeroWater 20 oz Stainless Steel Filtered Water Bottle Review
The ZeroWater ZB-20SS applies the same 5-stage ion exchange filtration technology used in the brand's countertop pitchers to a 20-ounce double-wall stainless steel bottle. The filter removes dissolved solids -- including heavy metals, lead, chromium, and total dissolved solids (TDS) -- to a measured 0 PPM at the point of sip, certified under NSF/ANSI 42 and 53. Each filter is rated for approximately 15-20 gallons before TDS readings begin to rise above zero; the included TDS meter lets users measure when to replace. The stainless construction is BPA-free and maintains cold water temperature for several hours without vacuum insulation. The bottle uses the same replacement filter (ZR-001) compatible with all ZeroWater pitchers, simplifying replacement ordering for existing ZeroWater pitcher households. The filter lid screws into the bottle body and the bite valve opens for drinking without tilting. Both the bottle body and filter housing are dishwasher-safe on the top rack when the filter element is removed.
Pros
- 5-stage ion exchange filter reduces TDS to 0 PPM -- strongest filtration of any bottle on this page
- TDS meter included to confirm filter performance and replacement timing
- Same ZR-001 replacement filter used in ZeroWater pitchers -- one SKU for whole household
- NSF 42 and 53 dual-certified
Cons
- Filter life of 15-20 gallons is shorter than carbon-only competitors (Brita Sport 40 gallons)
- 5-stage filter reduces flow rate -- requires a slow steady draw vs. free-flow drinking
- No vacuum insulation -- does not keep water cold for extended periods
