Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel Water Bottle with Poly Loop Cap (27-Ounce)

The Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel water bottle is just the right size to fit into a lunch bag. The water does not have a metallic taste and the flat cap is secure and leakproof. Excellent for children and adult lunch boxes. Easy to clean.

Just a short review. I use a reusable water bottle literally everyday in my workplace. I typically go through 30-60oz. of water per work day. I've used both Nalgene and SIGG for extended periods. Summed up the Klean Kanteen is superior in various ways:

- 304 Stainless Steel:clean, durable, inert, sanitary, toxin-free, etc....I'm getting ABSOLUTELY no off-taste from these even after 2 days of sitting water (I often refill at the end of the day and may not necessairly finish the water for a day and a half). Water keeps a fresh taste period!

- Durable. Obviously not going to be as dent free as polycarbonate, but the plusses outweigh that. It will NOT dent easily as others have intimated.

- WIDE opening. Not too wide to drink from at all, perfect really. How many narrow SIGG style drinking glasses do you have in your house, hmmm? None! Nice rolled lip. BONUS: Waaay easier to fill than a SIGG.

- Lids work perfectly. It's a lid, anybody who gripes about it is nuts. It seals easily and well.

- Unlike SIGG, these are not coated with a "secret" proprietary coating on the inside. Furthermore, do you really want to drink day after day out of aluminum and trust that coating to keep you safe?

- Unlike Nalgene; Nalgene bottles are great but they are only good for short periods as they most certainly impart staleness to water quickly. Also, unless you're using one of the newer BPH free bottles, do you want yet another chance at nasty molecules in your body?

The steel water bottle is everything I was told it would be. It works just as well as I had expected it to function. So far, I haven't had any experiences of bad or metallic tasting water. The only problem I have with the bottle is the expensive cost of the bottle. I think they could sell them for less money and do us all a favor.

easily can add ice cubes and lets you have filtered water from home and not add to land fills--not to mention saves money since you're aren't buying cases of water bottles

This bottle does its job well. It holds juice and coffee without keeping any odors. When the coffee sticks to the bottle, just rinse with vinegar.
