This is an upscale designer water bottle, top of the line, and so much fun. The designs Of Sigg's water bottles are gorgeous, from the plain, solid color bottles, to the ones with intricate designs. They are simply beautiful! I switched from regular plastic water bottles because of health concerns, thinking it would take more work to maintain. These do necessitate regular cleaning (I clean mine every day), but having something so beautiful to drink from makes the cleaning fun. Sort of like my rings, glasses, and watch, I now consider my Sigg personal water bottle a vital accessory, reminding me to drink more water, making a statement about my values, and expressing myself with a special design. Yes, all in a water bottle!
Sigg of Switzerland water bottles are very high quality, made of light aluminum on the outside, slightly insulated, and covered with a special powder coat on the inside that prevents any leaching whatsoever, unlike plastic and polycarbonate water bottles. They are light, durable, and perfect for any activity. Well water tastes spectacular in these bottles, just like from the tap.
Sigg bottles come with several different types of tops. I bought this screw top (also called a "loop top") because I don't like sports tops, and I don't mind unscrewing the top when I want a drink. It is totally leak-proof, which is important to me. The top is pretty and can be hooked onto a carabiner. I get comments on it all the time, "What's that? I love it!" The sports top version is ok; I just am not a fan, as I don't feel like I can get enough water from the little stream from the sports top. However, for convenience, you might prefer it. For children, there is a cap-type top. All are leak-proof. If you like the design and size but prefer a different top, you can buy a screw top separately to fit your Sigg bottle.
Pick a style and pattern you like, as this bottle is a personal accessory, and should reflect your style. The colors are vibrant and even prettier than they seem in the pictures on Amazon.
One consideration in case you are buying this Sigg bottle for your children: They do dent, but I and others regard this as a type of "seasoning" affecting only the appearance, since the dents do not go through to the inside of the bottle or affect the inside at all.
They are expensive, but they are so durable that you can plan on them lasting many years. I consider them both an accessory and an investment in my health, so they are well worth it value-wise for me.
Highly recommended.

I have now purchased three of these bottles, and can't say enough great things about them. SIGG products are safe for my family and smart for the environment, which were the biggest selling points for me. And now that I've tried them - wow! Our bottles are stylish and durable. The caps fit perfectly and are easy to use (even for the kids). I like my twist-off lid because I can carry it with one finger or hang it off my diaper bag. And best of all, our water stays cold & tastes clean. Buy an insulated sleeve if you're concerned about chilly hands. They're good for keeping coffee/tea/cocoa warm too. :-)
Great Water Bottle January 26, 2008
I've been using this for about a week now and love it. It's a water bottle and yes the paint scuffs, you can get a ding and if you aren't careful you can leave it on a park bench and never see it again. Besides those "faults" this is a great bottle. No odd taste to the water, almost indestructible and no leaks! This isn't an insulated bottle and won't wash well in the dishwasher so be careful with hot liquids and don't leave it under the seat in the car for a month half filled with Kool-Aid. For the serious water bottle user it doesn't get better than Sigg!
Sigg water bottles are great! January 23, 2008
My daughter and I wanted an environmentally sound, healthy way to stay hydrated. Sigg is it! No plastic filling our landfills and no plastic leeching into our bodies.
