I can't really tell a difference between this and other bottles of spring water, but I love drinking water so I love this :) I like that it is made with 50% recycled plastic, excluding the label and cap, which is at least a step in the right direction to being more environmentally friendly. It is essentially the same price most other individual bottles of water so this is probably something I will be buying in the future, but mostly I prefer to buy in bulk where the price per unit is cheaper.
