With some of the recent news about plastics containing various chemicals that aren’t the kind of thing people should be consuming, Christina went on the hunt for options. Turns out one of the safest drink containers is stainless steel. Doesn’t leach chemicals, isn’t made out of funny chemicals, and it lasts.
After some looking and thinking, she decided on kleankanteen as the best option. A bit more looking and she found them for a decent price at reusablebags.com. The prices there seem to be reasonable and a bit cheaper than some other places.
We bought three of the 27oz bottles. Christina likes the sports top (easy to suck water out of); I went for a flat top screw on lid. I like the style, even if I can’t drink in a moving vehicle without taking a quick bath. We also bought their small version with a sippy-cup top for Aleah. It works well and it came with a sports top for later.
The shipping was reasonably fast (we used USPS, as UPS doesn’t do well by us out here) and we would buy from them again.
