Backcountry.com Goat Klean Kanteen - 40 oz

After a few cleanings, this Klean Kanteen bottle serves up beverages w/out any weird after taste (at first I swore I tasted metal, but not any more). Regardless what you put in there - coffee, tea, gatorade, etc., just clean it out and you're good to go. It doesn't insulate very well, so don't expect beverages to stay cool. However, it's super tough and being that it's recyclable, it's environmentally friendly too. Everyone should have one of these in their gear closet.

We love the bottle, but how about a way to keep the cap and bottle together like a Nalgene?

I've been using this thing hard...every day for a month. Only one dent, and all stickers still stuck to it. It rules! No weird aftertaste with water, and it doesn't hold the taste of any other beverages. Tried tea, coffee, cytomax, and water. All taste great. There is no insulating value...but who needs that, the bottle would weigh twice as much. Good size too! 40oz. The only annoying thing is you sometimes get a small bit of liquid that squirts out when opening. You can deal with that.

I've purchased one of these for each member of my family. I highly recommend this bottle.

This bottle is rad. I agree with other reviews that it does not have a funny taste after a certain amount of use. I can put any liquid in it and clean it out just fine with no residual taste. The Backcountry logo on it is nice but not in your face. The opening is big but not huge like a Nalgene where you spill it all over yourself. My only complaint is a nails-on-a-blackboard like noise when you are unscrewing it. But hey, I can deal.

This product is the best I have found. I love that I can put tea and sweet sports drinks in it, rinse it out and drink water with no after taste the very next use! On top of that it has environmentally friendly manufacturing and there is no risk of harsh chemicals leaching into my beverages hot or cold! It also makes a GREAT hot water bottle on those cold winter camping trips.

I first got in contact with this bottle in the spring of 06 and I have never looked back since. I have always been picky with drinking vessels. I Persisted with glass as long as I could but they are just to heavy and breakable. Never liked any kind of plastic due to its harboring of bacteria and the oil and chemicals that is used to manufacture it, nor with aluminum bottles that reacts to many liquids that you put into them. With the Klean Kanteen you get the best of everything. Environmental friendly to produce, does not harbor any bacteria, does not leach any toxins, and last pretty much forever. This all means that since it lasts and does not get foul smelling, broken etc, you don't have to throw it out (recycle), just to buy yet another plastic container. This is another major concern for most of us outdoor people, the environment. I have cooked soups and other hot liquids in this bottle right on the camping stove, no problem. After countless outings, scratches and dents this bottle still tastes as when it was brand new.

Never did like tasting plastic when I'm thirsty. Goat Klean does keep it clean, and sometimes you do need to carry a 40 ounce.

I had water in this bottle for about a week in my car in decently warm temperatures, and it didn't develop any kind of weird taste like a Nalgene does. My only complaint is that I dropped it when it was full, and it dented quite easily. Hasn't impacted its utility though. Definitely worth the extra money

I received my Backcountry.com Goat Klean Kanteen and started using it right away! I love the fact it is not plastic or aluminum! I can't stand the taste of plastic in my drinking water. With this kanteen, no problem, just clean water! Very good product.

The most ecological water bottle on the planet! More durable than plastic, no leeching of dangerous chemicals, lightweight, stylish, eco-friendly, and just plain awesome. After 2 years of use, this bottle performs like the first day. Give up the petroleum-based plastics and go green with Klean Kantean!
