6 Effective Spray Bottles We Tested and Loved (2025)

Our Top Picks

The best spray bottle overall is, without a doubt, the Grove Co. Reusable Cleaning Bottle. It’s made from high-quality recycled glass and features a thick and durable plastic nozzle with multiple settings and a protective silicone sleeve base that doubles as a label for the bottle’s contents.

The spray setting was sufficiently strong, and the mist was wide and even (which we think would be great for cleaning countertops or mirrors). This bottle sprayed just as well when angled sideways as it did when it was upright, which couldn’t be said for all of our picks.

While this pick is a bit of an upfront investment compared to some of our other favorites, its construction and versatility justify the price tag. You certainly get what you pay for because, in addition to its overall high quality and effectiveness, there are small but helpful details like the nozzle labeled for the spray settings and the dishwasher-safe material.

Since it is so well-made and a bit of a splurge for a spray bottle, we think this would make for a great gift idea, along with some cleaning formulas or ingredients to fill it.

The Everspring Glass Reusable Cleaning Spray Bottle—which you can find at Target—is another excellent choice. This reusable glass spray bottle costs under $7 and holds 20 ounces of liquid, making it a great choice for all-purpose cleaners, disinfectant sprays, and room sprays.

While testing, we appreciated how the spray settings were indicated by small icons on the nozzle, and how well it sprayed, even when the cleaning solution was super low. The concentrated stream, in particular, felt very powerful and ideal for targeting grout lines. While it doesn’t work at all if it’s tilted on its side, it also doesn’t leak, which is a trade-off we’re willing to make since the last thing we want is for the cleaning solution to spill.

Similar to ourbest pick overall, the base of this bottle has a silicone layer for added protection and security from tipping over. It also has measurement etchings, so you can clearly identify the amount of liquid left or mix your own cleaning solutions directly in the bottle.

If you need a low-cost all-purpose spray bottle, we recommend the Zep Professional Sprayer Bottle. This heavy-duty plastic spray bottle can hold a whopping 32 ounces. Plus, out of all the bottles we tested, it had the longest recorded spray length, around 20.5 feet (so you could even hold your own using it in a water fight!).

It offers one spray setting (stream), so if you need a mister, you may want to skip this one. This one setting performs particularly well, though, and we found it comfortable for spraying upright, sideways, and upside down.

The bottle is made from a thick and durable plastic that is compatible with a variety of cleaning formulas. However, it’s not suitable for combustibles, solvents, bleaches, or acids, so keep that in mind when shopping.

Nonetheless, thanks to its accessible price and the steady and strong spray, we think it’s a great choice if you want a fuss-free all-purpose spray bottle that can be used for a variety of household purposes, from cleaning the bathroom to wiping down the kitchen counters.

For a set that can cover all of your cleaning bases, consider the Sally’s Organics Empty Amber Glass Spray Bottles, which come in a six-pack on Amazon. These reusable glass spray bottles can hold up to 16 ounces of cleaning solution and have an amber hue, so they’re compatible with essential oils and DIY cleaning products. They also look beautiful on a countertop, so they’re a great aesthetic choice, too.

Aside from their looks, the spray bottles are also super functional, and we love that you can easily fill them in the sink. They also have even distribution, and they don’t require a ton of water or liquid for an effective and even spray (even at 0.25 inches full, we could still get around 20 sprays out of it).

The spray is more mist-like than it is a direct, concentrated stream, so that’s something to keep in mind—but that could be a benefit if you’re planning to use these for cleaning and plant misting.

The Rayson Empty Spray Bottle Refillable Container was the clear winner for the best plastic spray bottle. It is more compact than most of the others we tried, so it doesn’t hold a lot of liquid, but its short, squat shape makes it a good space-saving option.

Plus, the budget-friendly price tag allows you to grab a couple of them for different cleaning solutions. This would be a great choice for DIY anti-odor sprays for coats and other garments, for kitchen surface spray, or even for linen spray as its smaller size can easily tuck into a linen closet.

From a quality standpoint, the spray mists evenly at all liquid levels (even when super low), and it doesn’t leak at all when tilted or lying on its side. You can also spray when the bottle is tipped sideways, though it isn’t quite as effective as when it’s completely upright.

Unlike some other options on our list, the nozzle isn’t labeled, but the twist design makes it easy to switch from different settings without negatively impacting the cleaning experience. It also comes with a regular cap, a unique feature among our picks, so you can swap it for the nozzle if you need to pack it or take it on the go.

Spray bottles are a must for plant parents. For the best spray bottle for houseplants, we recommend the Driew Plant Mister Spray Bottle. This 10-ounce bottle comes in three colors—including a gorgeous green hue—and is constructed from high-quality and durable Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET).

It boasts an excellent mist range and is easy to control the mist levels. We found that the spray felt strongest when it was half-full or more, but it worked well when lower, too. Its smaller 10-ounce size makes it more compact and lightweight, so it’s easy to holdandhang off the side of a planter.

If you’re in need of a plant mister and a plant mister only, we think it’s a great choice—but if you need a bottle that can work for cleaning or other tasks, too, it might be a bit too narrowly focused for you.
