I actually own a number of these collapsible water bottle in different colors and from different brands.  I love them because they are easy to carry.  I get different colors so everyone in my family can always identify their bottles easily.

Pros:

• Extremely light weight and almost unbreakable
• No water leakage
• Wide opening for ease of cleaning
• Same color top and bottle

Cons:

• Top might break if hit against a hard object (i.e. dropped on the floor)

Package Includes:

• Pink Kemier collapsible Water Bottle

The Pink Kemier collapsible water bottle came packaged inside a small square box.  The front of the box has a see-through window with plastic covering.  I can easily see the color of my bottle but at the same time I won't have dust drifting into the box.  One side of the box lists features and the other side lists caution points.  

Opening up the box, the bottle was inside a thin plastic bag.  I like the amount of protection for the bottle.  I did notice that there was no chemical smell when I took the bottle out which is always a good sign. 

But this still doesn't prevent a deep cleaning prior to the first use.  In addition, there is a caution point listed on the box to disinfect the bottle with boiling water too so its always good to follow the instructions provided.  I washed it with soap and hot water and then soak the top and bottom in hot water with lemon slices overnight.  This helps to thoroughly disinfect and clear out any potential smells that may be on the bottle. 

So for initial use I filled the bottle with ice cubes and due to the wide opening, my large ice cubes was able to go into the bottle easily.  Then I filled the rest of the bottle with cold water and drank from the bottle.  There were no chemical smell or taste. 

The top of the bottle was very well built.  There's heavy plastic protecting drinking spout.  In addition there's a dual locking mechanism.  You basically press the white button and the top will spring open.  But to help prevent accidental presses, there's a metal d-ring that goes over the white button.  The spout was also good to drink from.  I did notice that I have to be careful when squeezing the bottle as too much water might come out.  So light squeezes should suffice for drinking.

The main selling function for this bottle is its collapsible which works out really well.  You basically open up the top and roll up the bottle then you use the silicone string to tie the bottle into place.  My only fear with this the silicone string might break some day.  The last great feature to the top is a hook.  You can carry the bottle easily by holding onto the hook or attaching the hook to your bag. 

Overall, the bottle is great and probably has the best packaging compared to other similar bottles.  The nice retail box makes it great for gift giving.  And because there are three color options you can make sure that everyone has a different color bottle.
