The CamelBak Chute Mag 20oz ranks second because it offers the core features of a premium insulated bottle at the lowest price among the steel bottles we compared. CamelBak says the 20oz Chute Mag keeps drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for 10 hours, matching Hydro Flask's cold figure and close to its hot one. The cap has a magnetic top that stows out of the way when open and is leak-proof when closed, and the whole bottle goes in the dishwasher. CamelBak lists the size as 24 cm x 7 cm x 9.5 cm and the weight as 316 g, and the powder coat finish and sweat-proof insulation keep it from leaving wet rings in a bag. It costs $19.99 on sale, down from $27.99, and CamelBak offers 30-day returns. The trade-offs: the low price is a sale, 20 oz is a smaller fill than the 24 oz options, and it is heavier than plastic. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test the bottle.
