Stainless Steel H2O Bottles....
Just purchased a whole bunch for the whole family (they make LOTS of
sizes and colors) and am so excited to start the work/school week with
them.
There's a sport-top and a twist-off cap for each bottle,
they're BPA-free and 80-100% recyclable!
Anybody else using
stainless steel?
Re: Stainless Steel H2O Bottles....
Yes. We love them.
The best part is that the water still tastes good even after a few days. In plastic bottles it gets so nasty in just a few hours.
We have 2 each. 1 for work and 1 for home. DS even has his own little one. I strongly prefer the Kleen Kanteen brand bc you can get all sorts of different lids. I have switched DS from a sippy lid to a regular sport top and I have another bottle for DD for the same thing.
Yes, we have several and I never get tired of using them.

I have Klean Kanteen that I retired a month or two after getting it. It seems that I don't like drinking out of metal. Any of the plastic tops I got for it leaked, which wasn't really very great, either. The last straw was dropping it, denting it, and making it unable to stand up properly without wobbling for 5 minutes first.
If they would make them un-dentable and with non-leaky plastic narrow tops I'd be on board.

We each have our own Kleen Kanteens and we love them! We take them biking, I bring mine to the Farmer's Market, we bring them both camping. They've never dented.
We have a pair or them. They're good for hiking and camping and airports (as long as they're empty for security). But our dented on a recent trip. We still use them.
The one place they annoy me is the gym. The clanking of metal on the treadmill and the time it takes to unscrew the lid bugs me. So I recently spent a small fortune at thie nature shop to buy a BPA free plastic nalgene bottle. I figured it was better than the other one which was made in China.
