I just got a new waterbottle from Sigg, and I love it. It is 33oz. and is metal. Mine is gray, and says “Make Love, Not Landfill” on one side, and “ECO-Logical” on the other. My mom got a really pretty royal blue one, and my stepdad got a boring gray one without a saying. But they have crazy colors and designs, and water bottles in all sizes. You can even get interchangeable lids. It does come with a funky smell, so I washed it with my biodegradable dish soap, made by Seventh Generation, and the smell went away. It doesn’t really hold temperature that well. I put water from my Brita in it, and the bottle became colder than the water. But other than that, I think that this is a great investment for my family. Not only will we save money, but we are saving the enviornment. I encourage everyone to buy the bottles, available on the Sigg website. I do aprichiate what Poland Spring is trying to do, making they’re bottles have less plastic, but really, Sigg is the way to go!!

Comment by Sam Metsfan December 2, 2007 @ 1:24 pmare these bottles aluminium?
is aluminium a safe storage vessel for drinking water?
hasn’t the use of aluminium pots for example been linked to alzheimers? at least they found patients to have higher levels of aluminium in their brains, whether some people absorb more than others or were exposed to more wasn’t clear from what i remember.
Comment by unsure November 14, 2008 @ 5:55 amso are you sure its a good idea?
The aluminum bottles are meant solely for use with cold water – not warm. The alternative being plastic, they are preferable.
I have one, but the lid was wonky and literally would take five minutes to get on and off, and leaked a lot. I have to get another one.
