I've been using a reusable 36oz/1L plastic "flip lid" bottle from Bezos's market - this is my third one (sadly replaced almost on a yearly basis) since I keep accidentally breaking the lids.

It practically comes everywhere with me - walking, cycling, in my backpack. This lid is starting to crack at the hinge and the latch though, but don't really want to replace it with the same thing again.

How long have you had you had your current bottle, and how are you finding it so far?

I got an aluminium one off Ali Express with a metal unscrewable lid, because my previous metal water bottle which was meant to last me forever, had a plastic lid which broke. I've had it for many years now, and it's fine. A bit dented.

I recently bought a Sistema 500ml vacuum flask for like, $10 on a ridiculous special. It has plastic parts in the lid, but seems to be of decent strength. I really like it, I fill it with boiling water and then top up my tea for a few hours with hot water.
