Klean Kanteen Wide Loop Cap

My other container has a larger diameter making it hard to pour water. This one with less capacity had the perfect size for my small hand to grip.confidently. Quality container but I’m afraid that it will develop the silicone gasket leak. My bigger and older version of the container is starting to leak.

I love this canteen. Plain and simple. Single-walled. Tight seal. I use it on camping trips, and love that I can set it directly on a fire (minus the cap) to boil water. Water tastes great in it, and it's got solid, good quality build. I've dropped it a handful of times, and while it does take on dings, I'm surprised by how small they are compared to how bad the drops have been. Works like a charm!

This is my second time purchasing this bottle (I lost the first one), and I love it! I don't like my water ice cold, and this bottle is an excellent way for me to lug around 40 ounces at a time without lugging around something massive. It doesn't insulate drinks and will sweat if you put cold water inside on hot days, but it's perfect for a room-temperature water drinker. My bottle has a few dents in it, but that's because I'm rough on my gear (it rolled under the car yesterday, ha) but it has held up very well.

Thus far, Amazon has sent me 2 of these with dents in them because they couldn't be troubled to use an appropriate level of packing material. I was able to receive one without damage and it seems to be a good product. I highly recommend if you want one, that you buy it from the actual company instead of Amazon. Save yourself some time and heartache.

I prefer the simple wide mouth water bottle especially for washing since I can see into it clearly and there isn’t a bunch of tiny crevices in the top. Hold a huge amount of water. Used it on an international trip recently and when I filled it early morning and put a bit of ice in with the water it kept my water so cold for so long it was amazing. The top seals great. It’s a bit wide for my hand to hold onto for long periods but it does have a handle on the top and I mostly kept in on the backpack pocket. This is a no frills exterior which is great for my travel stickers.

Love my previous Klean Kanteen steel bottle and this one seems mostly similar. Unfortunately it came with a dent already! Seemed like it was packaged well so not sure how. Not worth returning tho.

Nice piece of kit!

I bought this bottle to use for long runs to replace my water bladder in my osprey daylyte backpack. I’m training for a marathon so I needed something that could hold at least 40oz and keep ice for longer than the plastic water bladder. I am surprised how lightweight this bottle is and it works great for what I use it for. I don’t think it would be good for a smaller camelbak style bag because it’s so big. I lined the bottom of my bag with foam so the bottle doesn’t sway when I’m running. It’s not great for hot beverages because the outside of the bottle is the same temperature of the fluid inside because it’s single walled. I replaced the cap because it’s so heavy and it has a tendency to cross thread and bend the gasket inside the cap. I bought this bottle originally because I didn’t like the taste the plastic bladder imparted to my water and I chose against an aluminum bottle because most are lined with polyester. This bottle is made entirely of steel.
