Broken cap after single use

Rating for this product: 1 April 14, 2009

I liked the blue powder coating but the bottle I ordered came with a "ghost" logo image: there is another lightly painted logo on the other side of the bottle, as if someone painted that one first, realized he did it wrong then moved onto the other side.

No big deal, I wasn't going to let that bother me. So I kept the bottle. First day it was great. But on the second day, when I wanted to twist my cap open, the plastic loop and the steel part of the cap just...well, came apart. The plastic and steel piece must be glued on or something.

I was able to turn the loop, but the steel part wouldn't turn, so the cap wouldn't budge.

So I was stuck with a useless bottle, couldn't get it to open. I had to send the bottle back with water in it.

Backcountry gave me a free return shipping label for the trouble though. No complain there. But I really can't recommend this bottle. I have read the 100% plastic cap works better. Perhaps backcountry should offer that as an alternative. Or maybe Klean Kanteen needs to offer a 100% steel cap?
