    non plastic water jars

    I have been using plastic ones. I am considering using non plastic containers/jars for health concern. Searching online does not help much. There aren't any stainless jars (around 3 litrs). Glass jars are not an option ad they break easily.

    What do you guys use/suggest?

    Thanks

    P.S. my plan is to have 3-5 of such jars to put water in for cooking, drinking, etch.

    Google found me a few 2 litre options pretty quick.. they are just going to be costly. What are they going to be used for? I don’t really like plastic but use them so infrequently I don’t think it is a health concern

    I am in the Temu website now. there are options for 4 or 5 litres Insulated water jars at $77 each. I may end up buying 4-5 if nothing cheaper coming up. I do not need the insulation, but they do not make uninsulated ones.
    I use it for boiling hotwater to drink etc. I will continue to use my plastic ones to clean hands, brush teeth, clean camping/cooking stuff. My wife keeps reminding me of the danger in drinking the bottled water that have been in my vehicle for months. The sunrays would cause the plastic deteriate and pass toxic mateiral to the water.
