Amazon.com Product Description
A safe, stylish alternative to plastic water bottles, Sigg water bottles are a great choice for transporting beverages on your daily commute or while backcountry hiking. This ultra-lightweight bottle is extruded from a single piece of aluminum and holds 1 liter of fluid (33.8 ounces). Designed to fit your on-the-go lifestyle, it comes with a loop top bottle cap, which can be secured via hook or caribiner clip to a backpack or daypack. Sigg bottles are virtually unbreakable and are constructed with no seams, ensuring a long-lasting, leak-proof performance. They also feature Sigg's proprietary baked-on inner liner, which is made from a non-toxic, water-based epoxy resin that exceeds FDA requirements for leaching (0.0 percent) and is independently tested to be taste- and scent-neutral. Every Sigg bottle is 100 percent recyclable at the end of its life, and is backed by a lifetime warranty. About Sigg
It all started with a simple hiker's bottle. Today, the SIGG bottle has acquired cult status. What happened is a success story that started in Biel, Switzerland in 1908. Küng, Sigg & Cie. manufactured leisure goods, kitchenware, and electrical appliances. The company relocated to Frauenfeld in 1916, where it helped pioneer the legendary tradition of Swiss quality. Since 1998, SIGG has concentrated on its core business: drinking bottles that deliver ultimate customer benefit. Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can Sigg bottles be used for boiling water?
A: No. Strong heat can damage the outer coating. Q: Can dents in the bottle damage the Sigg bottle's inner coating?
A: No, the Sigg inner coating is highly elastic. Dents cannot crack or chip the internal lining and the Sigg bottle remains perfectly usable. Q: Can I use my Sigg bottle for carbonated drinks?
A: Yes, all Sigg bottle tops provide a 100 percent seal and will not leak. It's recommended that you fill the bottle no further than 1/2-inch below the lip. And before taking a drink, relieve the pressure inside the bottle by gently rotating the entire top. Q: Are Sigg bottles dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, but because of the narrow mouth of the bottle, hand washing is recommended. Q: Can a Sigg bottle be placed in the freezer
A: No, as this may cause the bottle to crack. However, the bottle can be chilled in the refrigerator.

 Can't Take the Taste October 15, 2008

As a concept, the SIGG bottle is great. The design is nice, it's metal (not plastic), sturdy, with a solid "looped" top. But in practice, it's not all it's cracked up to be. I've owned mine for about a year now. At first I really liked it and although I could notice a "unique" smell and taste occasionally, as long as it never got even a little warm (don't even think about leaving it in the sun), the flavor was minor. Over time though, It's gotten to where I can barely stand to drink the water I put in even if it's only been in there for 30 minutes.
My understanding is that SIGG bottles use a polycarbonate lining - This is what Nalgenes are made of! I believe they are exploring other lining options (after the brewhaha about BPEs), but I would recommend a simple stainless steel bottle over a SIGG. Not only are they about 25% of the price, but they won't have the flavor issues of these bottles.
One final complaint. If you're switching from a Nalgene, you'll immediately notice that you if you don't twist the cap all 273 rotations it won't be fully closed and will leak. Unlike the 3/4 twist of a Nalgene.
Clearly I don't love mine. But they are stylish.
Love it! August 31, 2008

This is a great bottle. I ordered two, my only complaint is that someone stole one within a couple of weeks. It is not the easiest to clean, but it is very sturdy, attractive, and functional.
Overall, a great water bottle August 12, 2008

I love the Sigg water bottle. I use it only for water, but it does a great job keeping the water tasting like, well, just plain water, which is what you're looking for! My wife ended up buying four more, but the smaller kids version for my boys to use - they love them, too!
I would have given a 5-star rating, but the one complaint is that the inside of the opening you drink from is threaded. It doesn't bother me, but my wife finds the threads annoying when they hit your upper lip while you are taking a drink. Not exactly a deal-breaker, though, and a sport lid would take that problem away - but I only have the twist-off style lid.
 Dents easily, dispenser top difficult to use July 9, 2008

The plastic bottle scare must be a boon to SIGG and other metal bottle makers. While I'm skeptical there's a real issue with plastic, I bought one of these for my wife and one for my teenage son since they were concerned.
It took my son one day to put two large dents in his, one big enough to effect capcity a bit, and I can't see any way to fix the dents.
SIGG might make different dispenser tops, mine has a four sided white and gray cross shaped gizmo on top that dispenses water when you twist it in a certain way (the word "CLOSE" is written in almost microscopic letters) and press it down, hard. It's almost impossible to dispense water at a decent rate and we've given up and just unscrew the top and drink from the bottle.
Buy one of these only if you're OK with the twist off top and you're not going to be knocking it around a hard surface that might dent the very soft walls. At $20 a pop, I expected much better durability and function. The instructions (in 20 languages!) are almost useless.
Addendum-- the bottle also imparts a metallic taste to the water.
