If you searched for the Echo Go Plus, here is the news you need before any comparison: Echo has discontinued the Go+, around July 2026. Its product page now redirects to the Echo Flask, the only Go+ item left in Echo's own catalog is a parts kit, and authorized dealers list the bottle as sold out. The last dealer price we found was $249.95.
Short answer: you can no longer buy a new Echo Go+. Your real choice today is the Echo Flask at $299.99, with a claimed 8 ppm and no published third-party certificate we could find, or a certified alternative such as the PIURIFY 17oz at $151.00, with the full lab report published and a lifetime warranty included.
We make PIURIFY, so read this with that in mind. Every figure below has a source attached, the ones about our bottles come from an independent lab report you can open yourself, and we say plainly where Echo is genuinely stronger.
Is the Echo Go Plus discontinued? Quick verdict
Yes. Echo discontinued the Go+ around July 2026, so it can no longer be bought new. Echo's live replacement is the $299.99 Flask, which claims 8 ppm with no published third-party certificate we could find. The certified alternative, at about half that price, is the $151.00 PIURIFY 17oz.
- The Echo Go+ is gone. Echo's live successor is the Flask: $299.99, 12 oz, touchscreen and app, and a claimed 8 ppm (8,000 PPB) that we could not find a published third-party certificate for.
- The PIURIFY 17oz costs $151.00, is certified at 4,240 PPB on a single 10-minute cycle and at 9,970 PPB after four 10-minute cycles with the cap closed, both certified under H2 Analytics report H2AR-251025-1. Lifetime warranty is included, plus a 60-day money-back guarantee (prepaid return label).
- The difference in a sentence: for about half the price, you get a higher labelled maximum that has actually been verified and published, and warranty terms in writing.
Where Echo genuinely wins: brand recognition, a large community, and the Flask's touchscreen with app support, which our bottles do not offer. If those matter more to you than a published certificate, the Flask is a real product from an established brand. The rest of this article is the evidence for both sides.
What happened to the Echo Go+?
Three verifiable facts, all checked on August 10, 2026:
- The Go+ product URL on echowater.com redirects to the Echo Flask, the current flagship.
- Echo's own product catalog lists only an "Echo Go+ Parts" SKU. The bottle itself is no longer sold.
- Authorized dealers list the Go+ as sold out. The last dealer price we found was $249.95.
Echo is probably the best-known name in hydrogen water, and much of that reach came from the podcast world. Gary Brecka in particular has put hydrogen water, and Echo with it, in front of millions of listeners. That visibility is real brand value, and it is part of what Echo's pricing reflects. It is also worth being clear about what it is: marketing reach, not a product specification.
For a Go+ searcher, the practical consequence is simple. The bottle you were researching is off the market, and the brand's answer is a $299.99 flask. The question is whether that is the rational replacement, or whether something else is.

Hydrogen output: PIURIFY certified vs Echo Flask claimed
On paper, the Flask's claimed 8 ppm (8,000 PPB) is higher than our certified single-cycle figure of 4,240 PPB. We are not going to pretend otherwise. If Echo's number holds, one Flask session beats one PIURIFY 10-minute cycle on concentration.
A unit check first, because this category mixes both scales. 1,000 PPB of dissolved hydrogen equals 1.0 PPM, which equals 1.0 mg of molecular hydrogen per liter of water. The therapeutic range cited across clinical studies is roughly 0.8 to 1.6 PPM (800 to 1,600 PPB). Figures in this article are given in PPB unless the brand publishes its own number in ppm, as Echo does.
The two qualifiers matter, though.
First, verification. We could not find a published third-party laboratory certificate for the Flask's 8 ppm claim. PIURIFY's numbers were measured by H2 Analytics, an independent lab in Henderson, NV, and the full report is public. We are not saying Echo's figure is wrong. We are saying one of these numbers has been checked by a disinterested party and documented where you can read it, and the other has not, as far as we could find.
Second, the labelled maximum. The PIURIFY 17oz certifies at 9,970 PPB after four 10-minute cycles with the cap closed, 40 minutes in total. That is a real, repeatable protocol on the certificate, not a marketing peak, and it is higher than the Flask's claimed 8,000 PPB.
In dose terms: a 17 oz (500 ml) fill at the certified 4,240 PPB carries about 2.12 mg of hydrogen, and about 4.98 mg after the four-cycle stacked protocol. Taking Echo's claim at face value, a 12 oz fill at 8,000 PPB would carry roughly 2.8 mg. Capacity does as much work as concentration, and the 17oz holds more water.
If you want the deeper explanation of how to read PPB claims in this category, our hydrogen water bottle buying guide walks through it.
Price and value: PIURIFY 17oz vs Echo Flask
The Flask costs $299.99. The PIURIFY 17oz costs $151.00. That is nearly a two-to-one gap for a bottle with a lower labelled maximum and no published certificate that we could find.
The fairest way we know to compare value across brands is certified output per dollar, using each bottle's labelled maximum. Unverified claims are marked as such.
| Bottle | Labelled max | Price | PPB per $ |
|---|---|---|---|
| PIURIFY 17oz | 9,970 PPB (40-min stacked, certified) | $151.00 | 66 |
| PIURIFY 10oz | 6,300 PPB (30-min stacked, certified) | $129.99 | 48 |
| Echo Go+ (discontinued) | 4,500 PPB (10-min, claimed) | $249.95 | 18 |
| Echo Flask | 8,000 PPB (claimed) | $299.99 | Not scored, claim unverified |

Part of the Echo premium is the brand itself, and that is a legitimate thing to pay for if it matters to you. Our position is only that when a bottle costs twice as much, you should be able to see the test report that justifies it.

Certification: who publishes a lab report
Every PIURIFY hydrogen figure in this article comes from H2 Analytics in Henderson, NV, measured by static headspace gas chromatography under Randy Sharpe, their Director of Testing. The 17oz bottle is covered by report H2AR-251025-1 and the 10oz by H2AR-240821-1. The 10 oz report is published in full, chromatogram included: View the H2 Analytics lab report for the 10 oz bottle (PDF).
For the Echo Flask, we searched for an equivalent published document and could not find one. That is not an accusation, and Echo may well have internal test data. But "trust us" and "here is the lab report" are different standards, and on a product whose entire value is a concentration number, the difference is the purchase decision. If you are considering the Flask, ask Echo for the certificate. It is a fair question for any brand in this category, including us.
Warranty and guarantee: lifetime vs unpublished terms
The SPE/PEM membrane inside any hydrogen bottle is where electrolysis happens, and that membrane and electrode assembly is the wearing part that sets output over time. Coverage on it is a functional spec, not fine print.
PIURIFY: lifetime warranty, included in the price, on both bottles. Plus a 60-day money-back guarantee (prepaid return label), so you can test it against your own expectations before committing.
Echo: we found conflicting warranty information from different sources, so we are not going to print a figure we could not confirm. Check Echo's current terms directly before you buy. That is the same standard we apply to hydrogen claims, applied to coverage.
If you still own an Echo Go+
Nothing about the discontinuation makes your bottle stop working. Echo still lists a Go+ parts SKU, so consumables and replacement parts may remain available for some time. If the bottle serves you well, keep using it.
For reference, this is what the Go+ offered, against what the same money buys today:
| Spec | Echo Go+ | PIURIFY 17oz |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Discontinued, parts only | In production |
| Price | $249.95 (last dealer price) | $151.00 |
| 10-min output | 4,500 PPB claimed | 4,240 PPB certified |
| Capacity | 10 oz | 17 oz (500 ml) |
| Body | Polycarbonate | Food-grade polycarbonate |
| Lab report | None found | Full PDF published |
Prices and specs verified August 10, 2026.
Two honest notes on that table. The Go+ claimed 2 to 3 ppm on its 5-minute cycle and up to 4.5 ppm (4,500 PPB) on its 10-minute cycle, slightly above our certified 4,240 PPB single-cycle figure, though we never found a third-party certificate for it. And if the 10 oz size is exactly what you liked about the Go+, our 10oz bottle at $129.99, certified at 4,090 PPB on its 10-minute cycle, is the closer match.
What the Echo Flask does better
- Brand recognition. The most widely known name in the category, with a large community behind it. If buying established matters to you, Echo is established.
- The Flask's hardware. A touchscreen and app support are genuine upgrades over button controls, ours included.
- Claimed peak concentration. Taken at face value, the Flask's 8,000 PPB claim tops our certified single-cycle 4,240 PPB. Verification is the difference, but the claim itself is higher.
What PIURIFY does better than Echo
- Published third-party certification for every figure we quote, with the lab and report numbers named.
- Higher labelled maximum: 9,970 PPB certified after four 10-minute cycles, cap closed, against a claimed 8,000 PPB with no published certificate found.
- Price: $151.00 against $299.99.
- Warranty in writing: lifetime, included.
- 60-day money-back guarantee (prepaid return label).
- Capacity: 17 oz (500 ml) against 12 oz.
PIURIFY or Echo Flask: which should you buy?
Choose the Echo Flask if: brand recognition and community matter to you, you want the touchscreen and app, and the $299.99 price is not the deciding factor. It is the premium pick from the best-known name.
Choose the PIURIFY 10oz if: the Go+ size was the appeal. Same 10 oz format, $129.99, certified at 4,090 PPB on its 10-minute cycle and at 6,300 PPB after three 10-minute cycles, lifetime warranty included.
Choose the PIURIFY 17oz if: you want the most certified hydrogen per dollar we know of, the signed H2 Analytics report to back it, and the larger 17 oz (500 ml) capacity. For most people who came here searching for the Go+, the 17oz Bottle with Handle is the rational replacement.

Echo Go Plus FAQ
Is Echo Go+ discontinued?
Yes. As of our last check on August 10, 2026, the Echo Go+ product page redirects to the Echo Flask, Echo's own catalog lists only a Go+ parts kit, and authorized dealers show the bottle as sold out. The last dealer price we found was $249.95.
What replaced the Echo Go+?
The Echo Flask is Echo's current flagship. It costs $299.99, claims 8 ppm (8,000 PPB), holds 12 oz, and adds a touchscreen with app support. We could not find a published third-party certificate for its output claim.
Can you still buy an Echo Go+?
Not new from Echo. Its listing redirects to the Flask, and the dealers we checked list it as sold out. Echo still sells Go+ parts, which helps if you already own one.
How long does the Echo Go Plus last?
We could not find a published lifespan rating from Echo for the Go+, and the warranty information we found conflicts between sources, so we are not printing a figure we could not confirm. In any hydrogen bottle the SPE/PEM membrane and electrode assembly is the wearing part that sets output over time. Echo still lists a Go+ parts kit, so replacement parts may remain available for some time.
Which produces more hydrogen, the PIURIFY 17oz or the Echo Flask?
The Echo Flask claims 8,000 PPB, but we could not find a published third-party test. The PIURIFY 17oz is certified at 4,240 PPB on a single 10-minute cycle and 9,970 PPB after four 10-minute cycles with the cap closed, under H2 Analytics report H2AR-251025-1.
Does Echo publish a lab certificate?
We could not find one for the Flask or the Go+. That does not mean the claims are false, only that we could not verify them. It is a fair question to ask any brand in this category, including us. Our reports are linked in this article.
Is the Echo Flask worth $299.99?
It is a real product from the best-known brand in the category, and the touchscreen is a genuine upgrade. What we could not find at that price is a published lab certificate or clearly published warranty terms. Whether brand recognition is worth roughly double the price of a certified alternative is the real question to answer.
What is the best alternative to the Echo Go Plus?
On the measures you can verify: the PIURIFY 17oz at $151.00, certified at 4,240 PPB on a 10-minute cycle and 9,970 PPB after four stacked 10-minute cycles with the cap closed, under H2 Analytics report H2AR-251025-1, with a lifetime warranty included and a 60-day money-back guarantee (prepaid return label).
Is a hydrogen water bottle HSA eligible?
That depends on your plan and your benefits administrator, not on the bottle itself. HSA and FSA programs reimburse qualifying medical expenses, and some plans will consider a wellness device only with a letter of medical necessity from a licensed provider. We do not claim eligibility on your behalf. Check with your plan administrator before you buy.
