Advantages: Light, clear, cheap, easy to carry
Disadvantages: The spout
I do quite a lot of running and often find myself needing a cool refreshing drink when out. Previous drinks bottles had proved annoying to carry(because they are too heavy), but this drinks bottle is different. Its natural shape, with a thin handle shaped into the bottle, makes the Rucanor easy to carry while running. The huge hole that is created (see picture) helps to make the bottle extremely light, even when filled with water. In fact, I hardly notice it at all when I am on a run.
This could lead to a slightly negative point. If you were a long distance runner I'd suspect that you won't be able to get enough water into this bottle. You'd need a bigger bottle! But I am a short distance runner, only doing a couple of miles per run, so this is ideal for me.
Another great feature to this bottle is that its clear. Meaning you can see exactly how much water you have remaining, enabling you to pace how much you drink throughout the run. After all, you wouldn't want to drink all of it half way through your run.
My only slight negative point about this running bottle is the spout. Sucking water out of it is harder than necessary. Sqeezing the bottle doesn't help either, you have to get your mouth around it and suck quite hard, which is a little off putting when you are trying to run.
However, for only £3 this running bottle is an absolute bargin, and probably the best of its kind in the maket today. I award the Rucanor Fist Runners Bottle four out of five Dooyoo stars.
