About Sigg
It all started with a simple hiker?s 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.
Sports reviews of Sigg Kids Bottle
Customer Review: Kinda leaky
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I bought this water bottle after going through several $5 sport-top water bottles that leak all over me when I take a drink. I thought the Sigg would be different - but it's not. Better, yes. Leak-free, no.
But it is pretty. And I like that it's recyclable and not made of plastic. I would probably recommend a Sigg without the sport-top (I'm considering buying a regular top for mine).
Update: It turns out I was using the sport top wrong! It's designed so you have to push down on the top to get the water to come out. I had turned the top past its intended position (a place where you don't need to push down to get the water to come out) and that's why it was leaking. Oops. But problem solved - great water bottle.

I jumped on the "no plastics" bandwagon a few months ago. I bought my two girls Siggs bottles for lunch, park, etc... The bottles are what you would expect. However, my youngest (1 year) chewed the heck out of the PLASTIC mouth piece. Had to replace that. Secondly, they are a PAIN in the butt to clean. If you are like me...occasionally the bottle gets left in the car overnight. They grow mold very quickly and have hard to reach part to clean. I soaked them, boiled them, scrubbed them and finally scraped them clean with a long wood chopstick. So... good product, but buy the cleaner brush (havent tried it) or get ready for some major cleaning sessions.Customer Review: Had metallic taste to it
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I bought two of these Sigg bottles for my husband and me two years ago, when I was trying to get us some BPA-free bottles. Even though these are not supposed to have a metallic taste, we found that they did, and, after using these for a few months, I bought us Nalgene bottles instead, which we've been much happier with.Customer Review: Fragile dust cover.
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I have a 20oz Sigg bottle with an Active Bottle Top. The dust cover, which is the dome-shaped plastic piece that pivots to allow you to drink, is incredibly fragile. I have broken two of these in the last month. I use the bottle while swimming and all I did, was to knock over the bottle on the pool deck while reaching for it. I didn't even drop it. To top it all off (no pun intended), the dust cover shattered into razor-sharp shrapnels, which cut my finger while I was cleaning up. Just imagine these shards on the pool deck with all these people walking about barefoot.
The choice of plastic for the dust cover is a very poor engineering decision, given that the bottles are marketed to "Active" individuals.
In general, the bottles are sturdy, albeit susceptible to dings, scratches and other exterior damage. Get a neoprene pouch if you must have a pristine exterior.

Sigg Traveler Classic Water Bottle (0.6) / B000RI87UK
UPDATE: One year after I bought this water bottle, I am deeply irked to learn that it has been discovered that Sigg's 'superior' and 'secret formula' bottle linings did, in fact, contain the chemical BPA in them. They are offering a "free" trade-in to their new, supposedly BPA-free bottles until November 2009, but I am deeply unhappy with the Sigg company for three reasons.
1. Since they apparently never claimed to be BPA-free in the first place, they aren't legally required to offer a free recall, nor can they be legitimately sued for false advertising. But even if the claim was never explicitly made, there was always an implicit understanding that the Sigg bottles were "safer" than plastic bottles - and we ALL know what "safer" is supposed to mean. I'm not pleased with the deception.
2. The "free" trade-in simply isn't - since it's not a recall, they won't provide shipping labels, so I had to chunk down $10 in postage to get my Sigg bottles to finally do what they were always SUPPOSED to do in the first place - be BPA-free.
3. Since Sigg won't release their secret lining formula, there's no guarantee that their new liner is any safer than the old liner - even if they DID remove all the BPA this time, they could just as easily have replaced it with another dangerous chemical.
Bottom line is, I'm now quite furious with Sigg and I frankly wish that I hadn't bought from them in the first place.
