ekotology 32oz Vacuum Sealed Stainless Steel Lid -NO Plastic No Straw- Wide Mouth with Bonus Vesuvius 32 oz/0.95 Liter

I have been trying to convert my husband to 100% non-plastic drink containers for years with mixed results. He even has huge 0.95 liter plastic mugs that he drinks hot tea out of, which makes me just cringe as I believe the toxic chemicals leached out plastic to be detrimental to his health. I decided to splurge and make the transition complete by searching for a container that would meet all his needs. Ekotology Vesuvius is the answer to my prayers and worth every penny! (I ended up returning the Kleen Kanteen all stainless steel interior with bamboo cap because this product is far superior!) I love this bottle for too many reasons to count. Most importantly, only heavy duty, food grade stainless steel (and the tiniest bit of food grade silicone) are touching your liquids (unless you use the bonus lid-don't do it!). There is no metallic taste. The lid screws on easily and quietly without making a high pitched, annoying squeal like the Kleen Kanteen did. The silicone ring detaches for proper washing/sanitation where as the one inside the Kleen Kanteen did not and was permanently adhered to the stainless steel. A stainless steel shaker ball easily fits inside the Ekotology Vesuvius to mix up your protein shakes. This container cleans up super easy and it is easy to fit a towel inside to hand dry it. It is double insulated so boiling hot liquids are cool to the touch on the outside when holding the container. It is brushed stainless steel so it is not blinding in the sun and keeps fingerprints to a minimum. It fits beautifully inside all the different insulated lunch bags we have. I love that the top stainless steel handle easily folds down. This same handle is used to attach the container to my husband's backpack via heavy duty carabiner. I have not seen this container sweat with boiling hot liquids or ice cold water. The design is extremely sleek, simple, and elegant. To top it off, my 15 month old baby loves to drink out of this container and carry it around as well. The only thing I found disappointing was the bonus items that were made of plastic which defeats the purpose of the item. I immediately put those into recycling. Wish they would make a bonus stainless steel screw on food grade silicone sports lid (like Pura) and silicone holder instead.

I found this when the Klean Kanteen wide-mouth steel bottle disappointed me with how sharp its lip was - hurts to drink from! What was amazing is that this 32 oz bottle is so much lighter AND slimmer then the *20* oz Klean Kanteen wide mouth insulated bottle. On top of that I love the handle.What surprised me was how effective the insulation was. I put refrigerated water - no ice - in the bottle before going to the beach. Even in the hot sun the water stayed super cold for almost 8 hours. I don't have a hard time believing that if I had included ice it could've lasted for the 24 hours they advertise. I never really cared about insulation in a bottle, but this really impressed me.

In the world of a market inundated with insulated bottles, it's easy to just say "well I'll get whatever is cheapest, they're all the same." I picked up a $10 bottle from Amazon with this mindset and was really disappointed, the metal was thin, the plastic lid seemed flimsy, etc.I settled on Ekotology and I've been very happy with it. The build quality is quite sturdy and I like that the entire bottle, including the cap, is metal. The carrying handle feels robust as well and I like that I can remove the silicon gasket in the lid fairly easily to clean it. This bottle is also a perfect size for my hand; I had issues previously with a 34oz bottle I owned always beinf slightly too large for my hand.I also like the rubber rings that the company gives you to go around the lid, it makes for a nice way to customize your bottle a bit.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this bottle

I bought a 20oz Ekotology bottle a couple years back and really loved it. Just purchased a second, larger, one (32oz), and love it even more. This is one of the very few stainless steel water bottle out there with also all stainless steel cap!! There is zero plastic in the bottle!! So great!! The handle also makes it easy to carry the water bottle around. 32oz is fantastic!! Ekotology is the only water bottle I would us.

This is a fantastic product. Ive been searching for an all stainless steel mug with no plastic and im very glad i found this bottle. It is fantastic! And it holds a lot, 32 oz is a great size. When i make tea or coffee in the morning before work it stays hot for my entire shift of 10 hours! And i mean hot, not just warm. The outside of the container doesnt get hot which is very helpful considering the heat would make it very difficult to hold if it did get hot. I found it very surprising how long the coffee/tea i make stays hot while not heating the outside of the container. This bottle is also very easy to clean. The only downside to this product is the fact it comes with an extra plastic lid and plastic holder, but im glad thats not the only option. At least the plastic lid comes with an extra silicone seal incase you lose or ruin the one that comes with the stainless steel lid. The stainless steel lid has a handle attached to it which makes it very convenient to carry it. You can also attach a D clip to the handle and attach it to a belt or backpack which is also very convenient.
