Great Alternative to Sigg Sep 18, 2008
By Nicole E. Wood
I wanted a bottle with a simple slim shape that could fit as easily in a backpack side pocket, work messenger bag, bike messenger bag, or clip to a belt or bag loop. I didn't want a weird curve like the Klean Kanteens, or some weirdo laminate that has to be treated baby-soft gentle.
I really didn't want a sip-top like a cheap plastic bike bottle either where you have to suck down water (seems like it'd be hard in a stainless steel vessel and it's hard to keep those tops from getting odors).
The sippy-straw top is fantastic. There's a sealed-hole at the top so you can sip your water without that weird vacuum effect you usually have with strawish tops. It's also really sturdy and already has taken a bit of a beating.
The most awesome part about the top is that the belt clip flips the straw up so if your hands are dirty, you never have to actually touch your drinking straw. Great if you're out in the wilderness or been spending a lot of time holding on subway poles.
The bottle isn't insulated so if your drink is cold, your hands freeze and your drink gets warm fast. I had it filled with ice and water in my office, and within the hour it all melted (get a coaster). On my bike, it was tepid by the time I got home.
The paint is already chipping at the bottom and it's only been a few days, so I can't imagine the enamel being that durable in the long run.

 Love these! Sep 10, 2008

This bottle is perfect!
It is really dishwasher safe...I gave up on my Sigg bottles because I can't stand to wash things by hand.
It fits in my car cup holder.
You don't have to touch the nozzle to flip the straw up...which is really nice if you are out in the woods with dirty hands.
Plus the designs are really cute.

Awesome bottle! Jul 24, 2008
By S. Gentry

I was looking for a hybrid between a Sigg water bottle and a Camelbak. Like the straw mechanism on the Camelbak, but liked all the aspect of the Sigg metal ones--except I don't care for non-attached caps or sports tops. This was a great compromise.
I only plan to use this for water, but I should note that the tag says not hot beverages or dairy products. Would not recommend this for coffee, then, even iced.
It really does seem to keep the cold water colder and there is no metallic taste.
I think the clip on the top looks pretty non-durable, and it might rust in the dishwasher. Everything else feels tip-top solid.

 Nasty Odor Jan 11, 2009
By Rizz
Just received two of these. Washed and filled with water and chilled; then drank. The water had a nasty "chemical" taste and odor. Sniffed inside the bottle and yup, there was the odor i was smelling and tasting. Given these are made in China, that doesn't make me feel too good. Since i've used these i can't return. hoping the odor goes away over time. I also have a KleenKanteen Stainless and it's perfect and clean... no odors.
I gave one star for the flip cap design. The bottle has a soldered on bottom - poor quality in my opinion given the KleanKanteen is all one piece. I wouldn't buy this again.

 leaks and sqirts at me Sep 30, 2008
By Itried
This bottle is such a good idea but not executed well. For starters if the liquid insine the bottle is colder than the outside air it squirts at you everytime you open it. This is due to the straw. Without the straw just air would come out and you wouldn't notice but due to the straw the liquid has to come out to equalize the pressue. I also tried using it without the straw and it also leaks at the top where you flip the spout up and down. With or without straw inside this part leaked everytime. Bummer
