Klean Kanteen Review

Well not being one who likes to fill my body with all sorts of chemicals, I decided to make the switch from plastic to stainless steel bottles. In doing so I tried out a huge number of different bottles, and found out that most of them sucked. From rusting problems to tops that were so sharp you could your face off, it seemed that the perfect bottle was a lost cause. Then I came across the Klean Kanteen, and I was hooked.

Why I liked the Klean Kanteen.

• If you like the taste of plastic then don’t buy the Klean Kanteen, if you like water that actually tastes like water, then this bottle will do the trick. Even after a long day of hiking your water will still taste as fresh as when you filled it.
• Nice Rounded top for drinking. While this may sound like I’m over hyping the bottle, trust me I’m not. I had a bottle from another competing brand that was so sharp It was actually kind of dangerous to drink out of.  Out of every bottle I tried the Klean Kanteen was by far the best designed bottle. ( I tried 5 other brands that all sucked!)
• Rust Free – Another problem that I had with other bottles was rust. Most of them started to rust after only a couple days. The Klean Kanteen has never had that problem. I use these things on a daily basis and I don’t think this will ever be a problem.
• Light Weight – About the same weight as my old plastic bottles without the nasty plastic taste.
• Ability to boil water in the bottle. In a survival situation these bottles can be used to boil water. Some other brands are made of aluminum and baked epoxy that can not be used to cook with.

The Klean Kanteen comes in 4 sizes, (12, 18, 27 &40oz) and has a variety of cool caps and accessories. We liked the loop cap the best because it can be hooked to the straps of your backpack for easy access while walking.
