I received 6 PathWater bottles which were carefully packaged in perfectly cut heavy duty cardboard inserts. Looks like the box can hold a total of 9 bottles. I inspected each one and there were no dents to be seen. It's so hard to find reusable aluminum bottles that are made here in the good old USA! Thanks for fulfilling that need.I feel bad for the previous buyers who purchased these bottles before me, but received them with dents.
