Different in material and construction. Usually such bottle is used for many many years, so the money is justified to get good one. Tiger and Thermos are both good brand, Zebra is a cheaper Thailand alternative. Never ever goes cheap, especially on the gasket material.
- Thicker vs thinner steel. Matters in term of heat/cold holding and toughness when dropped.
- Double wall vs single wall. Double wall will retain heat/cold much longer.
- Double walled bottom (thermos type) or just plain bottom. Again, got to do with heat/cold retention.
- Cap spout design. Is it pourable, drip proof, etc.
- Cap material. If you are storing hot water, you might want a better thermo plastic material.
- Gasket material. Usually silicon gasket to ensure water tightness. If you store hot water, you want better silicon seal material. Cheap bottle will sees the gasket material degrade fast over time, not to mention leaching dangerous chemical into the water.
- Other function.... useful or not, depends on you.
