Klean Kanteen Reflect

This is a light stainless steel water bottle and I take it with me to work every day. It does not leak, and I really liked the design of the bamboo lid. I know that this is not a thermos, but I wish water stays cooler inside for a longer period. It will be great if klean kanteen had a thermos version of this water bottle.

This bottle is supposed to be highly rust resistant but I found rust around the lid after just 4 months of daily use. Obviously you don't want to keep using it after that so it was an expensive bottle if you divide the life of it over 4 months.

Purchased this bottle to try and reduce use of plastic and impact on environment - was shipped wrapped in 2 layers of unnecessary plastic and surrounded by more plastic padding items in the box so super disappointed in that! No issue with the bottle yet, but only had it one day.

So i researched and found the Klean Kanteen Refelct, it works well.
Its stainless steel, it is strong.
It has good lid.

I carry it every where and drink out of it everyday.
I take it to work, gym & home.

Would i buy another one, yes when this one somehow fails i will get another or just buy a 2nd one so i am never without,
Does what it is designed to do, hold water without leaking nasty chemicals
Expensive, always lands at same point when you drop it somehow. removed the lid is a little noisy
