Ice Mountain Natural Spring Water 6-Pack vs Member's Mark Purified Bottled Water 40-Pack

Buy the Member's Mark 40-pack if you want volume and convenience for a household, office or event. Buy Ice Mountain if you specifically want spring water rather than purified water, or a small 6-pack you can finish quickly. Ice Mountain is natural spring water with a stated pH of 7.9-8.1 and an 18-month shelf life; Member's Mark is purified water with minerals added, sold only in bulk. Both use standard 16.9 fl oz bottles, so the real difference is water type and pack size, not bottle quality.

  • Choose the Ice Mountain 6-pack if you want natural spring water with a stated pH range and a small pack that won't sit around.
  • Choose the Member's Mark 40-pack if you need a large supply for a family, office, event or lunchboxes and don't mind purified rather than spring water.

Questions and answers

Is spring water better than purified water?
Neither is healthier; both are safe. Spring water comes from an underground source and keeps its natural minerals. Purified water is treated, then minerals are often added back for taste. Pick by taste preference.
Which pack is better for a family?
The Member's Mark 40-pack. Forty bottles cover a family, lunchboxes and guests far longer than six, and the bottles are lightweight and recyclable.
Does Ice Mountain last longer on the shelf?
Ice Mountain states an 18-month shelf life from the manufacturing date. Member's Mark does not publish a fixed shelf life, so Ice Mountain is the clearer choice for long storage.
Is the Member's Mark water worth stepping up to in size?
Yes if you go through water quickly. The 40-pack cuts how often you restock, but it takes real storage space and ties you to Sam's Club.
Do the bottles fit standard cup holders and lunchboxes?
Yes. Both use 16.9 fl oz bottles, the common US size, so they fit most cup holders, bags and lunchboxes.
