Klean Kanteen

A single tear rolls down my coworker's face. He knows. I know. Thirst. He's parched. Yearning for some form of hydration. He sees me smile as I unscrew my beautiful stainless steel bamboo cap, lift the wide drinking lip to my mouth and quench on my delicious, clean h2o. Yet, all he has is a plastic water bottle. A ragged, overused plastic bottle that he'd rather not use in the face of my premium hydration vessel. He'd much rather experience the pains of thirst than succumb to the shame of showing he STILL reuses a plastic water bottle. GASP. All jokes aside, this Klean Kanteen is fantastic. It's remarkably crafted and even though it won't make the above scenario a part of your every day life, you should buy one anyway. Water tastes pure and clean, and even though its a bit pricey, its a worthy investment. It looks very cool too.

This bottle looks amazing, and from the quality, I can tell it's a real "buy it for life" item. Before purchase I wasn't sure where the silicone came in as the description says it is made of 3 materials - stainless steel, bamboo, and silicone. For anyone else wondering about this, it is a thin O-ring around the lid to make a watertight seal. The bottle itself is pure stainless steel (even the logo is etched - it's not paint). This means it can go in the dishwasher and has the added advantage that in a survival situation you could boil water in it over a fire (without the lid of course). The only issue I have had is one time when I didn't tighten the lid enough and some water leaked out, otherwise I have been very pleased with this purchase.

Had it for a couple of weeks now and so far I'm really pleased. Great build quality, great finish (brushed stainless) and really nice to drink out of. I'm really pleased about the availability of spare parts on Klean Kanteen's website - this thing should last longer than Trigger's broom. I've beaten my personal record of drinking bottle related compliments since owning it too. It is also somehow pleasant to drink water out of and I like the metalic rattly sound it makes when I screw the top back in. Overall 5*.

Great bottle. Doesn't change the taste of water and keeps it cool. Though, it's quite fragile for falls and the opening is quite wide. So, it causes leak if one wants to drink quickly. Though, wide opening is good for cleaning.

This is a superior product. Well made and I can tell it will last a life time. It does feel expensive as a one off purchase, but I have easily made my money back by not having to buy bottled water for a month. I have had no taste issues. In fact, when I now drink from a plastic bottle (especially a reused one) I can taste the difference. The lid does make a noise when unscrewed, but this is easily avoided by pulling up on the lid while screwing and going slowly. However, this is not even an issue for me. If your looking to eliminate plastic from your day to day life, this is a great place to start.

I love this water bottle! Sturdy, well made and the brushed stainless steel looks stylish too. When I was pregnant and breastfeeding and drinking several litres of water a day it came with me everywhere, must nicer than drinking out of plastic and cheaper in the long run than buying water bottles. Recommended.

Hard to drink out of without spilling. The lid screachs when closing. No thermal properties- but it works as a water bottle and doesn't leak.

I love the concept of Klean Kanteen. We brought it in colors for our kids, and then I did go for this one for my self. Pros: - none of all these chemical/plastic products that turns out to be dangerous - fits in many places - you can buy another top for sports activity - it is beautiful crafted in metal and bamboo - great size, 500ml is to little in many cases Cons: - the biggest con is, that it is fragile. Dropped it once from about 50cm, the bottom got a hit and now it has a bad balancing. My sons bottle got the same mark. - if you buy in colors, the color is fragile and falls of in daily use

Finalmente una borraccia elegante e allo stesso tempo lavabile e funzionale. Fornisce l'idea di non doverla mai cambiare, consigliato sia per chi ama l'outdoor sia per chi cerca una soluzione per non usare più borracce di plastica che si usurano col tempo o bottiglie con il collo sottile difficili da pulire. Unico tasto dolente (oltre al prezzo) la chiusura e apertura molto rumorosa e bisogna fare attenzione a chiuderla del tutto altrimenti c'è il rischio di seminare acqua ovunque.

Use it every day in summer -- sleek, minimal, no plastic at all. Has held up well over 4 years of intensive use, especially considering I am a professional gardener and it bangs around in all kinds of work sites. It was worth the money.

Exelente producto para llevar agua. No es un termo para agua caliente pero conserva el agua con muy buen sabor sin olores gracias al acero inoxidable ventaja no tiene ni una sola parte de plástico, solo es acero bambú y silicón. No se derrama y se ve increíble simplemente se ve muy muy bien yo compré la de 20 Oz para el uso diario. Deberían empacarlo mejor ya que llego en un sobre y los de paquetería luego no son tan cuidadosos.

Tout est dans le titre. Bonne contenance, peut être rangée dans un sac, passe sous le mitigeur des toilettes au bureau (contrairement à certaines gourdes), solide, jolie, sobre.

Ich bin mit meiner Klean Kanteen (0,8l) sehr zufrieden. Nach ausgiebiger Recherche habe ich mich trotz des stolzen Preises für die Flasche entschieden. Wichtig für meine Kaufentscheidung war: Sie ist bpa-frei und wird unter umweltfreundlichen Bedingungen produziert. Da die Klean Kanteen größtenteils aus Edelstahl besteht, schmeckt der Inhalt immer frisch (das empfinde ich z.B. bei Plastikflaschen häufig nicht so). Auch Getränke mit Kohlensäure lassen sich problemlos mitnehmen. Die Größe ist für meinen (Uni-)Alltag gut geeignet & die Flasche passt dank des schlanken Designs gut in die Tasche. Plus: Durch den Ring am Flaschenhals/Deckel kann man die Flasche auch gut an einen Trekking-Rucksack hängen. Das Design überzeugt - die Flasche sieht nicht nur äußerst hochwertig aus, sondern ist es auch. Nach meiner Meinung das entscheidende Argumente für die Flasche: Sie hält absolut dicht. Ich hatte echt genug von unfreiwilligen Waschgänge in diversen Taschen dank meiner vorherigen Flasche. Einen kleinen Kritikpunkt habe ich (auch wenn dieser wirklich klein ist): Die Flasche ist beim Öffnen und Schließen relativ "laut". Wenn Deckel und Flaschenkörper aufeinandertreffen, scheppert/knarzt es wahrnehmbar. Nichts für Orte an denen "absolute Stille" gefordert wird.
