Klean Kanteen insulated water bottle: This water bottle advertises that it will keep iced drinks cold for up to 24 hours and hot drinks warm for up to 12 hours. Those are some crazy claims, right? As it turns out, those claims are completely true.
I tend to be skeptical by nature and when I opened the package and saw the Klean Kanteen, I decided to test those claims. I filled the bottle with ice and water at noon and left it sitting on my counter until the following day. I shook it periodically to see if I could still hear the ice clinking in the bottle. At 2:00pm the following day, I opened it to test the water and the water was icy cold!
Want one more reason to love this bottle? I tested it with my coffee the following morning. I poured in a steaming hot cup of coffee and screwed on the lid. Several hours later that coffee was still steaming and perfect for sipping. I actually had to leave it uncovered a bit before it cooled down enough to drink. I am 100% sold on this fantastic water bottle.
