Water Bottle recommendations?

I'm looking for something made of steel (trying to avoid plastic) with a wide mouth so I can really clean it and also add protein to make a protein shake.

I haven't found something like this. Maybe I should just get a coffee tumbler and use it as a water bottle.

Klean Kanteen makes a wide mouth bottle. It looks like they are on closeout, too. I don't have this one, but I have a couple regular Klean Kanteens, and I love them!

I also use a Kleen Kanteen and really like it. It's very easy to clean. One caveat - since it is metal, if you put anything cold iside it the outside also gets verrrrry cold. You may want to invest in a cover for it.

I have a klean canteen and some plastic nalgenes.

I highly recommend the Built neoprene water bottle tote especially for stainless steel (it comes in a larger size as well). I have a similar version they don't seem to make anymore.

We have several but by far the Takeya is my fave http://www.takeyausa.com/p-42-classi...tle-16-oz.aspx

These are glass with a neoprene cover.

Make sure whatever you get is stainless steel NOT aluminum as the latter is always internally plastic-lined. Glass jars can be a good option too.

I have a wide-mouth glass bottle that comes with a silicon sleeve around it for protection. A bit heavy but I love it!

Good point. I do want stainless steel.
