 love the "no plastic" taste July 4, 2008
I have used my Klean Kanteens on several hikes so far. I really like the way the water tastes. I just put filtered tap water in each along with a few ice cubes made with filtered water. No more buying water in plastic bottles that have to be recycled. I didn't have the problems that I have read in other reviews about getting water out of the sport tops. There is a small hole in the sport top that is partially covered with a flexible plastic piece (this may be a new version). This lets enough air into the kanteen for the water to come out without a problem. Easy to clean in the dishwasher.
kleen canteen July 4, 2008
The Kleen Canteen sports bottle it a very nice product. I bought it because it leaves no plastic residue in the beverage your putting in it.
I got it with the sports cap which is made of polypropenol which supposably doesn't leach plastic. My only negitive comment is after dropping the bottle It got a good size dent in the bottom I feel for the price its worth it.
Great bottle, perfect size July 3, 2008
This bottle is fantastic. A wide mouth so you can guzzle water without spilling it everywhere since there are no air bubbles. The size is almost as large as a Nalgene, but is narrow and fits in my bike bottle holder (or car cupholder). I got the loop cap, and there are two versions of this. On one bottle I purchased a few months ago, the cap is "solid" but the one I purchased over here a couple weeks ago has a "hollow" cap. The hollow one allows you to put a little more water in I suppose, but feels cheap and is harder to clean. Overall still a great bottle.
Good Product July 3, 2008
There's not much to say, it does exactly what i expect from it. I was one of the people worried about using plastic bottles and wanted to switch to stainless and this fits the bill. I would recommend buying the sports cap for it though. You will quickly tire of opening and closing the standard cap.
Feels good to drink outta this July 3, 2008
I was skeptical about stainless steel, but so sick and tired of drinking out of expensive, chemical-leaching plastic water bottles that I decided to give this product a whirl.
Immediately after receiving my 40oz. Klean Kanteen with stainless steel loop cap, I decided I really liked KK's utilitarian, clean design much more than Sigg's over-the-rainbow design aesthetics. It looks industrial, like you know what you're doing and won't be taking "no" for an answer ;-)
I've noticed no taste effect on the water itself. You can maybe smell that it's metal when you go to take a swig, but for me that slight annoyance is more than made up for by knowing that I'm not poisoning myself with BPA or whatever else is in plastic bottles.
You can fit a bunch of ice cubes. That's a useful trait. And, it stays pretty durn cold. However, it is metal, so if you put it in the sun it's going to heat up.
The loop cap is strong, and only stainless steel comes into contact with the water.
So, all in all, a good buy. In the long run it'll be cheaper than buying bottled water every time I go hiking or play tennis. And, I'm not poisoning myself. Which seems like a *good* idea to me.
