5.0 out of 5 stars Rugged and well-thought out, January 5, 2007

I have been after the perfect water bottle for years and this is the closest I've found. What I like:
*It's metal, not plastic. If needed you could cook in it--say if you needed to melt snow for water.
*It's stainless steel, not aluminium. I have a collection of Sigg and Brunton bottles made out of thinner aluminium that are significantly crushed in places, most often the bottom vertical edge which is at a right angle. The dings occured even inside neoprene protective sheaths. The bottom vertical edge of the clean canteen is rounded and so better resist dings. I've used a Klean Kanteen without a neoprene sheath twice as long as the aluminium ones without significant damage. I should say that I don't consider that the treatment they have received was particularly rough. It's just that in hiking and working out, bottles fall on occasion.
*The mouth of the bottle is wide enough to fit ice cubes. With the Sigg and Brunton bottles, you either wait for the ice cube to melt and slide through or buy special ice cube trays. The wide mouth also means it's easier to clean.
*The simple top and protective cap. On the Sigg, I've had one top completely crushed. The other is difficult to open since you have to twist and pull the tiny cap. I say tiny because I have large hands.

What I don't like is that it does whistle (whine?) when you drink. Placing your finger over the check valve ends the problem, but I would take off a half a star if I could because of this one aspect.

Finally, I would suggest the Built NY 20 oz. neoprene cover. It fits perfectly and looks slick.

1.0 out of 5 stars Yet Another Leaky Container, January 2, 2008

I purchased two of these, put water in them, upended them, and watched the water drip out the sports top. I don't need yet another leaky container. A total waste of money.

5.0 out of 5 stars The water tastes great at all times, November 9, 2006

I bought these for Christmas gifts for my loved ones because I don't want their getting harsh chemicals leaching from their plastic water bottles. I couldn't wait to use mine, however. I usually work out and carry water with me all the time. I can fill the bottle with ice and water if I want it immediately cold. I can fill the bottle and lay it in the refrigerator so it's ready to go when I am. I can even leave the bottle with the water inside in the hot car for days and the water's taste never changes. I may get another one to carry my iced tea. I use to freeze my iced tea in plastic bottles for use on the sailboat until I heard that's about the worst thing you can do to your plastic drinking bottles. I just hope my gift recipients like the Kanteen as much as I do.
