New Pyrex slim line media storage bottles provide easier handling and more efficient storage of media, biologicals, and other aqueous solutions. Slim line media bottles feature indented gripping zones along the sides of the bottle to allow easier and safer handling, and a new cap design that permits faster opening and closing. The caps are fully compatible with all standard "GL45" (45mm neck size) Pyrex bottles. Widely-spaced knurls (ridges and grooves) provide comfortable and ergonomic cap handling, and the narrow bottle diameter allows more efficient storage on shelves, refrigerators, or autoclaves. Bottles are graduated to their full working volumes. Pyrex slim line bottles are made from the same Type 1 Class a (ASTM e-438) borosilicate glass as standard Pyrex media bottles for chemical and heat resistance.

My Favorite Glass Storage Bottle of All Time.
These are a bit pricey at $25 per bottle, but.... they are worth every penny and save me money and time. I have been looking for an inert (highly pure) glass in which to store my homemade colloidal silver solutions. If your glass in not very pure it will cause the solution to go bad faster. Previously I purchased some bottles here on Amazon that were around $5 per bottle and they while looking nice did cause the CS to change color over the course of a month or so. Since then I have been keeping the solution in an old well washed organic apple juice 1 gallon glass jug. Curiously it keeps the solution for over 6 months without degradation. It will begin to darken the yellow to amber color over time, but not nearly as drastically as the cheaper glass bottles that caused it to turn a grey to green color. Enter borosilicate glass from Germany.....Now, the CS solutions last a very long time without discoloring. I am very, very happy with this bottle. Not only is it a pure glass, it is also well made, being thick and durable. The cap is large and robust with a small plastic gasket that is removable and washable. The cap's shape and size make it easy to grip. The threads are large and it only takes a few turns to install or remove it. A very nice design indeed. I guess these were made with lab technicians in mind that may be using these on a daily basis. The quality is evident once you see one in person. The indented ribs on the outside of the bottle are a nice feature. I can grip the bottle very securely without fear of it slipping or of dropping it. Liquids pour from the opening without dripping or running down the outside of the bottle. I see that a lot of people are purchasing these for water or drink bottles for travel. I think a nice addition to this would be a neoprene sleeve. I will be looking for one. If you have found one that fits this bottle and you like it please comment below. I would appreciate it.I did also purchase a case of 10 borosilicate bottles that were not of the Pyrex Brand, but that are also very nice and of a very pure glass. It was around $100 for a case of 10. Kimble Chase KIMAX 14395-1000 Borosilicate Glass GL-45 Media/Storage Bottle With Blue Polypropylene Screw Thread Cap, 1000mL (Case of 10) These are very nice too, just not quite as ergonomic or travel friendly.I wonder if they are selling more of these to labs and schools or to people who like to keep their water pure. Anyway, I like to write reviews for products that I get excited about and make me happy and this is one of them. Now I can store my CS solutions for much longer without worry of impurities going into the solution and rendering it useless. I took some photos so that you can get an almost "in person" look at it here on Amazon since the stock photo is kind of plain. Hope they help and if you get one I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Daily-use hydration bottle.
The standard mouth size is perfect for drinking from, or to add drink mixes or ice cubes. The cap spins on and off very quickly and easily, making it great for sipping throughout the day, yet seals tightly when closed. This is the bottle you want for everyday hydration needs.Many ask if it fits in a standard car cup holder: no, this one does not, but the 500 ml version does. So buy one of these for home and one for the office, and the 500 ml version for the car.Skip the bottles with the gimmicky, hard-to-clean spouts and caps. Skip the trendy brand names. This is a high-quality bottle, easy to clean, easy to use, and might even earn you some geek cred among the lab rats in the know. ;)

Got agar?
Well built, sleek, affordable, easy to handle, autoclave ready, what else do you need? Excellent product all around. Purchased for agar preparation.

Fantastic glass water bottle
I am not using this in a lab setting. I am using this as a daily water bottle. It’s been great, easy to clean with a silicone bristle bottle brush. There is a little plastic ring/gasket at the top of the bottle that needs to be popped off to properly clean. It has a comfortable grip, I never feel like it’s going to slip out of my hand. The cap is very robust feeling plastic with good grooves that help ensure a nice tight seal when closing. Admittedly, it’s pretty heavy when empty, and rather heavy when full. But that’s to be expected with a solid glass bottle.I absolutely love this bottle.

High quality
These are solid. German made, and you can tell as soon as you pick it up. They’re light weight and tight sealing.Bonus: if you don’t like orange, you can get gray replacement caps.

Clean. Well made.
Well made. Looks like lab grade equipment. Came with a plastic gasket that fits the mouth of the bottle, but has a well inside the orange cap that can accomodate a flat rubber washer (not supplied) if you want a better/different seal. The mouth is wide enough to pour liquids in without a funnel.I use it for keeping carbonated water from a Soda Stream in fridge. True capacity is large. About 1.2 liters. Fits well in fridge door.Quality product. Would buy again.

Amazing. Sturdy, No plastic taste and Customer Service is so generous!
Absolutely the best water bottle. It is sturdy, and there is no plastic taste because it is like drinking from a glass cup. I know I’ve dropped it a few times on the kitchen floor, but it never broke. I did drop it on the basement floor, and the cap broke, BUT the Pyrex didn’t. I had emailed customer service to see if they sell cap replacements. Instead of sending cap, they delivered a whole new bottle! I am very thankful and will be recommending it to my family and friends. Thanks!

An all-around excellent plastic water bottle replacement.
This is a water bottle for the lovers of quality. Tempered Pyrex glass and a very intelligent design. For those who have purchased this and would like a neoprene holder that fits snugly and securely, try this:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CKQPZ6K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1I find it to be an excellent holder with handles.

The best pouring/storage container out there!
I love these Pyrex containers! They are durable, heat resistant and excellent for storage, measuring and pouring. I use them for pouring agar, and they give a nice even pour. No drips running down the side of the container. I own this brand of containers in numerous sizes, and I highly recommend them all.

STAY HYDRATED
I use this as a water bottle.Great quality. Lid seals perfectly.Doesn’t scratch easily. I dropped it yesterday really hard and it didn’t break nor scratch the bottle. I highly recommend this to anybody looking for a daily water bottle. Only down side is that it doesn’t fit in the any car cup holder.It easy to hold and great quality.Pricey but worth every penny. If I lose it, I’ll be buying another.BUY IT...YOU WON’T REGRET IT.

Great bottle for baby formula making
We ordered this to make larger badges of baby formula and it worked well for that purpose.Love that it can be sterilized 100% as both bottle and lid can be boiled in water to clean.Not sure about the no spill ring so we handwash that.Very happy with my purchase.

Great but without media cap.
The bottle appears to be of excellent quality, however it arrived without the media cap.
