High Quality and BPA freeNovember 16, 2008 This is an excellent little canteen. It's made from high quality stainless steel so it's resistant to corrosion and great at keeping your drink cool. The cap is also stainless steel covered with a plastic bit for strapping a carabiner or sting to.
Another advantage of the stainless steel is that it is BPA free, a chemical that is involved in the production of certain plastics such as polycarbonate bottles like Nalgene. A disadvantage of the stainless steel is that it scratches and dents more easily. It can also crack under really intense pressure, whereas the polycarbonate bottles can be run over by a car and still not breach. However, I don't think I'll be seeing that kind of damage to my canteen ever.
I also like the taste of water from a stainless container. I don't know if that's purely psychological or not, but I suppose it's the difference from drinking beer from a can or a bottle.
Not happy with this product.November 11, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
According to the sticker on the bottom of the bottle, it was made in China. Not good!
Good, but...November 10, 2008 This is a nice product. Unfotunately though the cap came apart the first time I screwed it on. It was easy enough to fix, but didn't exactly inspire confidence. No problems since. I'll order another.
great productNovember 8, 2008 I ordered two of these bottles and they are just what I was looking for. I drop them all the time and let them roll around the cargo area of my car and no dents or scratches. Neither bottle leaks and I have been using them for about two months, even carry them around in my bag on their side. I did note that the logo has nearly come off of one of the bottles after repeated cycles in the dishwasher, however, I hate logos on my things so I consider that a plus.
I like the design of the lid, very easy to loop a finger into to carry it around. I also appreciate that no plastic is in contact with the water. You can fill this water bottle up, let it bake in your hot car for days, and if you need a drink stick it somewhere to cool and all you taste is pure water.
Very satisfied customerOctober 24, 2008 I'm loving this stainless steel water container (we bought two). They work great. Wash with baking soda to eliminate metallic taste/smell. I reviewed them on my non-commercial site, Beat of Hawaii Dot Com.
