Bottled water brand good for the newer drink holders
On the Atlanta trip, I noticed my friend kept a Fiji water bottle in the drink holder. He explained it makes for a good fit as it's not huge, and the square sides conform nicely to the holder's clamp. When I've used other brands, and specifically with Earth Water, I would never completely fill the bottle, as I didn't like the idea of all that weight being supported by a somewhat delicate holder. Also, the EW bottle is thin-walled; easily crushing when handled, whereas the Fiji is firm. Also, Lastly, the Fiji inherently has a lower center of mass in relation to the clamp, so it's more stable, and less likely to flip out.
