Available in 25-ounce and 34-ounce formats, Yonder is a big deal for two reasons. First, it’s the lightest water bottle Yeti has ever created, making it super portable. Second, it’s also the brand’s first noninsulated water carrier, comprised of BPA-free plastic. Basically, Yonder was created to deliver on Yeti’s high-performing, ultra-durable reputation while simultaneously being light enough to accompany users in previously unexplored terrain.

To get them there, Yeti tested and tweaked Yonder amongst more than 150 professional outdoorsmen and women, including mountaineer and filmmaker Jimmy Chin and climber Conrad Anker, who provided insights that were then incorporated into the water bottle’s development. Read: Yonder was made by outdoorsmen for outdoorsmen!

While I’m decidedly not that, I am a huge fan of Yeti’s drinkware — the vacuum-sealed, stainless steel Rambler Tumbler holds my coffee during the morning school drop-off, while the Wine Tumbler is my go-to for neighborhood happy hours. As such, I was excited to take both sizes of the Yonder for a spin over the past week, testing them on the go, during workouts and, yes, throughout my many daily kiddo carpools. Check out my Yonder experience below.

Unsurprisingly, my favorite detail about Yonder is its concurrent capacity and light weight. To compare, the 34-ounce Yonder weighs .67 pounds, whereas the 30-ounce Yeti Rambler Tumbler clocks in at 1.1 pounds. Yonder is nearly a half pound less, despite carrying an additional four ounces of liquid.

Point being: Yonder’s portability claim holds up, which leads me to my second favorite design detail — the clip or carry handle. While it can fit into backpack side pockets, both sizes of the Yonder bottle feature a big ol’ built-in handle atop the screw cap that can be slipped through a backpack strap or attached to your bag via a carabiner. The result? Easy access, people! And because the Yonder cap is two parts (a screw cap, plus a wide-mouth spout that can also be removed), you can quickly detach the cap, take a sip and reattach the bottle while you’re on the go.

More about that cap — it’s 100% leakproof. I even let my 8-year-old son test this out, and trust me, if a third grader can’t break something, no one can. Despite vigorous shaking and using the Yonder as a football, the bottle remained completely watertight. And it survived drops, kicks and bangs galore, with nary a scratch. The brand acknowledges that Yonder will attain scratches over time, but its shatterproof claim definitely held up for me (and my kid).

Another perk of the Yonder cap’s two-part system is that while the controlled, wide-mouth spout makes for easy sipping and quick refills, it also screws off, making for equally easy hand-washing. And if you’re a dishwasher person, fear not — the bottle can be washed on the top and bottom racks. Say it with me: amen!

I’m almost done talking about this cap, I promise. But I’d be remiss not to mention that both parts are lined with small grooves that make it super easy to grip and open, even with gloves on or with wet hands. This is certainly a small design detail but one that can have a big impact depending on how you’re using the water bottle.

Lastly, I like that price. To score such a high-quality product for under $30 is always going to be a win for me.
