Hi there, what is the difference between the "size 9" and "one size"; Also, are the bottles ok to contain hot/boiling water? Thanks.

The size you are asking about is not like a clothing size or anything. It's the actual dimensions of the pack itself: "Size: 9.0" x 8.5" x 4.5" ". Height, width & depth in that order. If you are worried about size, it states that it fits waists from 22 to 55 inches. Read this article which tells more info about the water bottles, which are a generic brand of Nalgene bottles, so yes you can put boiling water in them. http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=61236

'One size' appears to be smaller- 4 x 9.5 x 6.5 inches according to the description compared with 9.0 x 8.5 x 4.5 inches for the '9 inch' size. 'One size' is also cheaper; $39.95 compared with $49.95 for the '9 inch' model.

I believe they are the same size. When we got ours there was only the one size which seems to be the same. And we have not tried the bottle with anything hot so I don't know if it can take the heat.Have a great day GP

They fit the Tommee Tippee brand bottles (with the wide nipples). It fits both the 5oz and 9oz bottles.

I hope my answer helps as I do not bike. The bottle measures 9" in circumference and 7" in height. I would say that because it is glass and holds 12 oz of water, it has a bit of weight to it.

I hate to repeat the obvious but it does matter what your using them for. I use them for small blends of essential oil &carrier oil i.e. 3 drops fir needle oil & 3 drops CO for sinus problems. The color Cobalt & amber slow down light from degrading the oil. So size matters if you need the bottle to hold larger mixtures. Then price 6 2 oz bottles at 8.99 compared to 6 3pz bottles @ 18.99 would make a difference so you need to determine if you really need that extra oz space. If it's for personal use it may not matter but if your selling a product that would cut into profits then you look at purchasing 6 bottles as compared to 36. Sorry I'm very logical I know way TMI.

It is wider than any baby bottle I know. It is like a big cup where you put hot water in. I use 6 oz and 9 oz angled bottles and there is no problem.

For the two of us, we usually only go through one bottle on a week long camping trip. We usually cook 2 meals a day on it using a cast iron grill and 2 burners for breakfast and frying pan or pot for stew in the evening. I have a dedicated Coleman single burner stove for heating water for drinks and washing dishes and that makes a difference in how long a bottle lasts for us. Being able to adjust the heat to a lower level and stay there has also helped on gas use over our old stove which was very hard to regulate. Using just one stove for both I'd say a bottle would last us about 3 days.

This sleeve fits a water bottle well (~16.9 oz), but sleeve is loose. I purchased another Nalgene bottle (Titan 24-ounce) for this sleeve and it didn't fit (bottle was too big). I would think that a 20 oz bottle would fit but may be tight until you use the sleeve more. If you look up the bottle in the picture here and see what oz. that is, it should help your decision to buy.The sleeve is great and keeps your drink cold or warm. It does smell a bit strange for a while right out of packaging, but consistent use should eliminate this. As rough as I am with the sleeve, the pattern is still attached and in great condition. I'm pleased with this sleeve and recommend it. This sleeve fits a water bottle well (~16.9 oz), but sleeve is loose.

When ordering the 9 oz. Bottles mine came with size 2 nipples (4 oz. Comes with size 1), but I guess size 3 & 4 have to be ordered separately?

The difference is the size of the bottles. This comes in one gallon bottles, the other comes in one quart bottles.

The 4 oz natural bottles fit the Avent bottle warmers, so i'm sure the 9 oz natural does too.

Thank you for your question. The Bottles are Wide Neck. The 5oz bottle includes level 1 (slow flow) and 9oz includes level 2 (medium flow).

Whatever the diameter of the standard 16.9 ounce bottle of water is. I don't have fancy bottles lying around, just the things you can find in any old vending machine/buy in bulk from the store. I've never found a bottle (yet) that it doesn't fit into.

I'm not sure, since I never owed the classic bottles or warmer. I am not sure if they differ in size from the original...but I would say if they specify classic bottles that the newer ones are not the same size or shape. The dimensions of these bottles are 6.9 x 3 inches.

the number is how many inches tall the filters are. the taller one (9") will filter water at a slightly higher rate. when i used one of these, we had 7 people getting ALL of their drinking and cooking water from it (one bathed with it) in a very hot and dry climate. There was never a shortage of water, but i did have it fed by a filthy mosquito larva, bird poop, rat poop infested cistern 24/7 (a float valve prevented overfilling) and the sweet filtered water drained into a bunch of 5 gallon containers. Never got sick.

It's one bottle. It's generally cheaper to buy at the store, but I've never seen a store carry anything above 91%. Which certainly can make a big difference depending on what exactly you plan to use it for. 99% Alcohol will quickly dissolve paints, adhesives, tars, resins, and also evaporates significantly faster. (The reason it costs so much is because it's highly flammable, and shipping companies don't like that.)

The bottles come w/2; smaller bottle has "medium" flow (2 holes) & 9oz bottle has "large" flow (3 hole). I could not use either for my LO until he was about 4 months (flowed too fast). I purchased Avent Wide Neck nipples (stage 1/$5 w/o coupon) & used those until then. Fit great, no problems & the ones that came w/bottles, I stored then used as backups when LO needed the better flow; he is 10 mo now & still uses the larger bottle exclusively, when not taking his liquids from sippy cup.

The hot is hot.. the cold is cooler than room temperature.. Like the convenience of it and the price was reasonable.. first one we got the plumbing on the inside was all broken so the water leaked out as fast as it was going in.. every time we load a new bottle we are very aware how cheap the plastic is and need to be careful because it feels like it's going to break every time you load the water bottle on top.
