It's also easy to clean--just scrub it out with white vinegar and baking soda (or mild soap and water), or load it in the dishwasher.

Why is the sports cap made of plastic and not stainless steel?
Your teeth. Klean Kanteen chose polypropylene #5 because it has no known leaching characteristics and is softer if you hit a bump on the trail. If you'd rather avoid plastic altogether, a stainless steel screw-on lid is available as an accessory.
Can I put hot liquids in my Klean Kanteen?
No. Klean Kanteen bottles are single walled and not for use with hot liquids. Warm beverages can be used at personal comfort level. The single-walled construction allows for more volume and the option to put your Kanteen on a flame.
Can I put my Kanteen in the freezer?
We do not recommend it and it will void the one-year warranty against manufacturer defects.
Can I put my Kanteen on a stove?
In a pinch, the Kanteen can be placed on fire or a stove. Beware not to melt the plastic lid or burn yourself.
What is stainless steel?
Stainless steel is an iron-containing alloy made from some of the basic elements found on earth: iron ore, chromium, silicon, nickel, carbon, nitrogen, and manganese. Properties of the final alloy are tailored by varying amounts of these elements. There are more than 57 stainless steels recognized as standard alloys on the market. Klean Kanteens are constructed from high quality sanitary grade 304 stainless steel which has a low nickel content. Stainless steel has excellent resistance to stain or rust due to its chromium content making it a material of choice among the food processing, dairy and brewery industries. Stainless steel is easy to clean, durable, inert and sanitary.
Sports reviews of Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel Colored Water Bottles with Poly Loop Cap
Customer Review: Safe product, good quality!!
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Hi all, I have bought couple of these stainless steel bottles and I am planning on purchasing some more. Water tastes great, I filter my water at home and use these bottles as you probably know plastic bottles are not safe {contain chemicals which you drink then} and also it saves plastic so its a help for the enviroment..
the only negative thing I would say would be sweating, they do get moist on the surface if you fill it with very cold water.. but it is not a big problem for me..
Sports cap and the loop cap I have is plastic but should be safe, I would like to switch to stainless steel in future.. both work great..
You can use it for anything, except nothing hot!!!, so it is great for water, milkshakes, juices or iced teas.. will definetely buy some more!!
Colors look great, the regular ones too!!
Good luck shopping all!!
Customer Review: Disappointing
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I bought the smallest bottle to use at the gym or after yoga or just to tote around in the car. The looks and construction are fine, but this bottle is very tough to drink from. The opening is an awkward size, making it virtually impossible to avoid dribbling water all over yourself. Customer Review: love this bottle
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I was looking for something that would be healthy after hearing about all the nasty stuff in the plastic bottles. this one is Great and a good size for me. only problem is "sweating". I also got the sport top for it making it easier to use.Customer Review: Fantastic Product!

I love this canteen and have gotten several compliments on it! Saves lots of money on bottled water - not to mention the environmental impact of using disposable plastic bottles.Customer Review: Klean Kanteen compared to Sigg
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Last month I bought a 40oz Klean Kanteen bottle and a 33oz Sigg bottle. In the end I prefer the Klean Kanteen.
Both bottles are very light and look good. The Sigg is lighter, but not so much to really matter. Sigg wins easily in the looks department with different artwork to choose from and the bottle I have has a nice textured powder coat finish compared to the KK basic look and smooth surface.
Sigg uses an epoxy to protect your water from the aluminum and tells you not to use the bottle for long term storage. Could be a bit worrisome not knowing what's in the epoxy and the possibility of aluminum contamination. I have not noticed a metallic taste from either bottle drinking straight unfiltered tap water. I prefer the stainless steel of the KK just because it's probably on the safer side.
The bottles are both lightweight and made of thin metal. I haven't dented either but I have been very careful with them. Both feel like they would dent quite easily. I have not scratched either bottle and the paint on both looks like new after daily use from work to the gym.
The KK bottle has the cap threading formed into the neck of the bottle while the Sigg uses a metal ring insert in the top of the bottle to thread the cap onto. Some people have complained that the Sigg's threaded insert is sharp, but I have not had this problem. The KK is more comfortable to drink from though. Also the wide mouth of the bottle makes it easy to put ice cubes in, which you can't do with the Sigg unless you have very small ice cubes.
I have the loop cap on both bottles. The Sigg I really have to twist the cap on tight so it doesn't leak. The KK cap seals quite easily and has never leaked. The KK also uses a thicker thread size and is easier to screw the cap onto because of this.
Some people are complaining about sweating. On a hot day with the bottles filled with ice cubes both will sweat, but plastic bottles will also.
If I was going to spend that much money on a water bottle again, I would go with Klean Kanteen without a second thought. The only advantage of the Siggs is the exterior design.
