 Perfect for kids too August 13, 2008
My wife and I had tested larger Klean Kanteen water bottles, and found them perfect for commuting, car travel, biking, and really, everything. They fit bike racks and cup holders perfectly.
I got one 12 oz for each of the kids, and they love them! Water is more fun out of their own water bottle, especially for my two-yr old.
The caps shouldn't be machine washed, and the cap retainers might interfere with the dishwasher spray arm if they are on the lower shelf and dangle.
We avoid potential polyethylene terephthalate (#1 PETE)leeching issue that all bottled waters are subject to (possible when left in heat, in the car, in the sun on the loading dock, etc), and avoid adding so many of them to the solid waste stream. Since PETE is also made from petroleum, we lower our oil usage just a little bit more.
Of course, since the water you drink in these bottles is only as good as the water you put in... We have an undersink filter, but a faucet-mounted or pitcher-type filter would work too.
Great product, only one flaw with the sport cap... August 13, 2008

I LOVE my Kleen Kanteens. I recently ordered one for each of my children, and my only dislike, is the "whistling" sound they make when drinking from the sport cap. It isn't a huge deal, b/c usually, when we are using them, it doesn't matter if noise is made (like at the zoo or other outing). But on occasion, we are somewhere needing to be quiet. Nothing more embaressing than having your water bottle hum when you take a drink. But, the convenience of the sport cap is worth this little annoyance in the long run. I just wish KK could do something to avoid this. Oh, it also will leak if on it's side. Not great, but we only use ours w/ water, so not usually a big deal. i am just aware of it and try to keep them upright. Again, this would not be an issue if we had the screw on caps.
Great Alternative August 13, 2008
After the whole nalgine/BPA scare, I ended up recycling 8 or 10 nalgine bottles. As a person who really needs a water bottle with her at all times (especally being pregnant and in the summer). I contemplated buying a Sigg bottle, but the liner scared me. While the Epoxy liner was deemed safe, so was nalgine and I was afraid later on someone may find it unsafe. The Klean Kanteen is by far the best alternative - no weird plastics, no liners, just steel. I know it won't get recalled years down the road. The water doesn't taste funny either.
Great Design and perfect for the office. August 13, 2008
Not only I was able to get a healthly receptacle for my daily water but I also found an elegant bottle to keep on my desk.
kanteen August 11, 2008
I have had my kanteen for about 3 weeks or so and i use it everyday at work. I love it. I use True Lemon/Lime/Orange crystallized packets and add it to my water. the kanteen is easy to use and i love the fact that Im not wasting countless plastic bottles. I will be using this product for a very long time!!
