Has anyone had success using water bottles smaller than 2L? The Kroger brand 16.9 oz (500 mL) bottle necks are too narrow to fit the spikes' threads.

Yes, I just cut off the plastic ring that is on the bottle and it gives just enough extra room to be able to screw on the bottle. I use a 12 oz bottle for a couple of my smaller plants.

It only works on 2 L. Bottle for me, might try empty alcohol or peroxide bottles.

I don't think so. My soda stream bottle has a very wide mouth. This screws onto a standard 20 oz or 2 liter bottle mouth which is generally much smaller.

I have found the best bottle to use is the 500ml Fiji bottle. It's square shape and the fact that it is shorter and boxier make it less likely to tip over as opposed to a taller, thin bottle. I simply use and empty one and fill it with distiller water, seems ideal!

I don't know how wide your bottles are. The Young Living 5ml. bottles fit very nicely and the Young Living 15 ml fits, but very snuggly. I have to work to get them in there.

I bought these as a gift so I can't say this for sure, but I think there is a cap section on the top of the device that fixes it in the bottle and stops it from falling in. I believe they fit in 16 oz bottles so it might be a little short for the 22ozs, but the bottle openings are the same size so that should be alright. I bought them for the same purpose for my boyfriend for Christmas.

Have you tried a cap from a soda or water bottle? I bet they are the same size.

The white round lid that screws onto the top is 1-3/4 inches across, so it will only fit this blue bottle that I am aware of. A two liter plastic bottle has a 1 inch diameter cap. Plus on the bottom of the blue bottle there is a one way check valve which allows air in to pressurize the water stream, then fills back with the right amount of air. Otherwise, the bottle would collapse with use. Hope this helps.

Walt B, I have not tried the two liter bottles, but the info on Amazon says they will work. I have had good luck with 20 oz soda bottles for my thirsty houseplants.

My guess is that it wouldn't fit and you would need to use a funnel. The inner diameter of the neck is wider than a standard soda bottle but smaller (I think) than a Gatorade bottle.

What kind of bottles are you using? I've been using Sierra Nevada and Firestone Walker bottles and they go down 180, but some 22oz bottles don't go all the way. Even for some that cap and don't go 180, they were fine. After you cap a bottle, try really hard to twist it off. Shouldn't budge; if it does, use a different bottle. Hope this helps.

It will be tight. I've found regular cans of Coke, standard Coors Light bottle and normal bottles of water fit ok but a pint bottle may be a bit fat.

Sorry Josie, no. It was designed for smaller bottle caps like those on water and soda pop. Works like a charm too. I no longer have to ask perfect strangers at ball games if they'd be kind enough yo open my water for me. Quite liberating!

We never tried to fit bottles, although 12 oz bottles or cans would work. We bought these to transportice cream from a local farm (with an ice pack) !

No need to do anything. Just fill a bottle with water screw the spikes on and stick them in the ground. I used 1L water bottles but they will work on a 2L as well. I thought they worked very well. Good luck.

I have a Water Wise Distiller and I found these to be too small. I had to use two or three to fill the distiller filter compartment.

I have no experience to answer definitively, but I wouldn't think so just because the neck of the Klean Kanteen it's made to fit is much taller than any baby bottle I've seen.

I'm not sure which bottle you're using but if it's a fatter bottles- it would work. I used playtex normal ones and they were too skinny
