Super nice bottle, keeps contents cool for a long time.

I now only use this water bottle design by Klean Kanteen. I have been using HydraFlask water bottles which are great. Both Klean Kanteen and HydraFlask have excellent quality. The reason i now exclusively use Klean Kanteen TKWide top design is because I wanted an insulated stainless steel water bottle that has a plastic-free straw solution. I have normally drank from the mouth of my water bottle which works well if I am upright. The problem is that i want my water bottle next to my bed at night if I get thirty. The open mouth water bottle could spill if I try to drink from a lying down position. Also I gagged a few times so I simply sat up and took a drink. Well that was getting old so I wanted a straw mouth. With a straw mouth, I don't have to unscrew anything and I can drink easily while being horizontal and not spill. The problem with other stainless steel straw mouth water bottles is that there was a plastic straw. The main point to go stainless steel is to get away from plastic. And although there are claims that the BPA straw is safe, etc, I believe the plastic leeches chemicals into the water. Maybe the chemicals or nanoplastic particles are safe, who knows. What I do know is that my water taste better when it isn't in plastic and it is surely better for you. So I went searching for an insulated stainless steel water bottle that used a stainless steel straw that sits submerged in the water. And I found this innovative design from Klean Kanteen that uses stainless steel for the straw and connects to food safe silicone which is way cleaner than hard plastic. Thus I can drink water from a "clean" straw solution. And the added bonus is that the silicone nipple swivels under the twisting cap and is completely covered. Thus no dust or someone sneezing is getting to the piece I put my mouth on. This is way better than those pop up plastic straw solutions.And if I want to unscrew the cap and drink directly from the bottle, I can. I have options.The handle is strong. I don't feel it will break easily by just carrying the bottle by the handle.Please note that the cap is plastic so if the water bottle is not upright, the water can be touching the plastic cap. For my use, my bottle is upright 98% of the time. Maybe one day Klean Kanteen will make a stainless steel cap too and just eliminate the plastic. I realize that this type of cap will cost a lot more because of all the pieces that break down when cleaning the top. I am good with their current design.Bottomline, this is the BEST "Clean" Straw Insulated Stainless Steel bottle. I have the 20 oz and the 32 Oz. I will drink the 20oz pretty quickly but it is good for short trips to store and you want something more light weight than the 32 oz. I am a senior system design engineer so i appreciate a great design and Klean Kanteen did a great job with this style of bottle.
