Product Features
|
Sigg bottles are virtually unbreakable and are constructed with no seams, ensuring a long-lasting, leak-proof performance. They also feature Sigg's proprietary baked-on inner liner, which is made from a non-toxic, water-based epoxy resin that exceeds FDA requirements for leaching (0.0 percent) and is independently tested to be taste- and scent-neutral. Every Sigg bottle is 100 percent recyclable at the end of its life, and is backed by a lifetime warranty.
About Sigg
It all started with a simple hikers bottle. Today, the SIGG bottle has acquired cult status. What happened is a success story that started in Biel, Switzerland in 1908. Küng, Sigg & Cie. manufactured leisure goods, kitchenware, and electrical appliances. The company relocated to Frauenfeld in 1916, where it helped pioneer the legendary tradition of Swiss quality. Since 1998, SIGG has concentrated on its core business: drinking bottles that deliver ultimate customer benefit.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can Sigg bottles be used for boiling water?
A: No. Strong heat can damage the outer coating.
Q: Can dents in the bottle damage the Sigg bottle's inner coating?
A: No, the Sigg inner coating is highly elastic. Dents cannot crack or chip the internal lining and the Sigg bottle remains perfectly usable.
Q: Can I use my Sigg bottle for carbonated drinks?
A: Yes, all Sigg bottle tops provide a 100 percent seal and will not leak. It's recommended that you fill the bottle no further than 1/2-inch below the lip. And before taking a drink, relieve the pressure inside the bottle by gently rotating the entire top.
Q: Are Sigg bottles dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, but because of the narrow mouth of the bottle, hand washing is recommended.
Q: Can a Sigg bottle be placed in the freezer
A: No, as this may cause the bottle to crack. However, the bottle can be chilled in the refrigerator.

Sigg vs. Klean Kanteen,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sigg Lifestyle Loop Top Water Bottle (1.0-Liters) (Sports)
I received two metal bottles from I ordered from Amazon. A Sigg and a Kleen Kanteen (KK).
The Sigg is 1 liter and made out of aluminum. The diameter of the bottle (3.15") is slightly too big for my car's cup holder, but fits my fanny pack pockets. The outside has some cool purple paint (comes in different colors/designs). There's a coating on the inside to protect the water from the aluminum; this coating is proprietary, so they won't tell you what it is. It does say not to use the bottle for long term storage, which makes me nervous, as does the aluminum. The KK is 27 Oz and made out of stainless steel. The diameter is too small for the car/fanny pack (rattles around), but fits nicely into a bike bottle cage. The 27 Oz is less than I prefer, but is probably OK for most purposes. Both seem like high quality items, which they should be for $20 each. Both have loop top screw on caps (KK has other options too) with gasket seals. KK's top is made of stainless steel on the side that touches the water, whereas the Sigg has a plastic top (nylon?). The top on the Sigg has a fine thread, which can cross thread more easily. The size of the opening on the KK is larger, which I like. Both have a smooth edge that's easy to drink from. Both pass the turn upside down test (no leaks). I rinsed both out with hot water several times, then put distilled water into each from my Waterwise distiller. The KK does impart a slight metallic taste, whereas I can't detect any added taste from the Sigg. I can also smell the metal from the KK. I don't know of any health problems from stainless steel, and in fact my distiller is made from stainless steel, so I'm not sure what to think about the added taste. It may be more of a smell than a taste from the KK, since when I pour water that has been in the KK overnight into a glass, there is very little taste difference. If KK made a 1 liter bottle with the standard diameter (about 3 inches, like plastic bottles), deciding which to use would be a no brainer for me. With the different trade off's, I'm not sure which I'll end up using, but probably the KK; the aluminum and coating just seem like they have too many potential health problems over the long term. KK does make a larger 40 oz bottle, but the diameter is too big for me at 3.5 inches.

High points from a water bottle junkie,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I've been lusting after an aluminum water bottle for quite some time, and finally got this SIGG. I am very pleased, so far. It comes to work with me every day. True to the descriptions, your water will taste neutral after being in this bottle. I have not tried storing any other liquid in it, however, and so cannot testify to its taste properties with juice or anything other than good old dihydrogen monoxide. I would recommend this bottle to anybody, however don't go bashing it around like you can with a Lexan bottle. Aluminum can dent fairly easily, but that's the price you pay for lightweight. SIGG Switzerland rocks!
