Compare the 3-in-1, 750 and 1L bundles to build a hydration setup that fits your day. Step-by-step guide with checkpoints and common mistakes.
Quick answer
To build a hydration bundle, match bottle sizes to your daily routine and the number of people sharing it. Choose the 1L Bundle for long days away from refills, the 750 Bundle for a balance of portability and capacity, and the 3-in-1 Bundle when you want multiple lid styles for different drinks. If you need a bag to carry your bottle hands-free, add the Ocean Bottle x GROUNDTRUTH RIKR Bottle Bag.
Why bundle instead of buying singles
Bundles reduce the per-bottle cost and give you a ready-made hydration setup. The 750 Bundle includes two Ocean Bottle Original 750ml bottles, and the 1L Bundle includes two Ocean Bottle Original 1L bottles. That makes them practical for sharing or keeping one at home and one at work. If you want variety in how you drink, the 3-in-1 Bundle offers multiple lid options, though exact lid types are covered in our separate lid guide.
Step 1: Map your daily water needs
Track how much water you drink on a typical day and how often you can refill. A 1L bottle means fewer refills, which suits long commutes, desk days, or travel. A 750ml bottle is lighter and fits more cup holders and side pockets. If you often carry a bag, check that the bottle fits upright before committing.
Step 2: Decide how many people will use the bundle
A two-bottle bundle works well for couples, roommates, or one person splitting time between home and office. If you are buying for a family with more than two regular users, you may need two bundles or a mix of sizes. The 750 Bundle and 1L Bundle each contain two bottles, so they cover two people directly.
Step 3: Choose bottle size based on portability
A 1L bottle holds more but weighs more when full. A 750ml bottle is easier to carry in a backpack or tote. If you walk or cycle, the smaller size may be more comfortable. If you drive or sit at a desk, the larger size reduces trips to the refill station.
Step 4: Consider lid variety and use cases
The 3-in-1 Bundle is designed with multiple lid styles, which helps if you drink hot and cold beverages or want a straw option. The 750 and 1L Bundles use the Original bottle format. If you already know you prefer a specific lid, check our lid comparison guide before choosing a bundle.
Step 5: Add a carrying solution if needed
If you want hands-free carrying, the Ocean Bottle x GROUNDTRUTH RIKR Bottle Bag is compatible with Ocean Bottle products. It comes in Eco-X Black or Stone Brown and is built for daily commutes. This is an optional add-on, not a replacement for a bottle bundle.
Step 6: Set a budget and check value
Compare the bundle price to buying bottles separately. The 750 Bundle is listed at USD 60.00 (compared to USD 80.00), and the 1L Bundle is listed at USD 58.50 (compared to USD 90.00). The RIKR Bottle Bag is listed at USD 36.30 (compared to USD 55.00). Prices are catalog prices and may change.
Your step-by-step bundle building plan
- Track your daily intake and refill access: For one week, note how much water you drink and how often you can refill. If you refill fewer than twice a day, a 1L bottle reduces hassle. If you refill often, a 750ml bottle may be enough. Checkpoint: If you regularly finish more than 1.5L before lunch, consider a 1L bundle or two bottles.
- Count regular users: Decide if the bundle is for one person or two. A two-bottle bundle suits two people or one person splitting time between home and work. Common mistake: Buying a two-bottle bundle for a family of four without checking if two bottles are enough.
- Pick bottle size by carry method: If you carry a bag, measure the pocket or sleeve. A 1L bottle may not fit small side pockets. A 750ml bottle is more likely to fit standard cup holders and side pockets. Checkpoint: Test your bag with a similar-sized bottle before ordering.
- Decide if you need multiple lid styles: If you drink both hot and cold beverages or want a straw, the 3-in-1 Bundle provides multiple lid options. If you only need a standard lid, the 750 or 1L Bundle is simpler. Common mistake: Assuming all bundles include the same lids. Check the product page for exact contents.
- Add a bag only if you need hands-free carry: The RIKR Bottle Bag is compatible with Ocean Bottle products and comes in two colorways. It is not required for hydration but helps on commutes. Checkpoint: If you already have a bag that fits your bottle, skip this add-on.
- Compare total cost and value: Add up the bundle price and any accessories. Compare to buying bottles separately. The 750 Bundle is USD 60.00 (vs USD 80.00), the 1L Bundle is USD 58.50 (vs USD 90.00), and the RIKR Bottle Bag is USD 36.30 (vs USD 55.00). Common mistake: Forgetting that prices can change and that bundle contents may vary.
