A late Christmas present arrived on my door today. Patrick got us each a Sigg water bottle. In case you haven't heard, Sigg makes THE BEST REUSABLE BOTTLES.
Known as, "The World's Toughest Water Bottle", Sigg bottles will not break or even chip if they are dented on the outside (but it takes A LOT of force to dent one) and the inside won't absorb the taste or smell of your beverage. Most importantly, they won't leach any chemicals into your beverage, unlike plastic water bottles.
Sigg bottles are also eco-friendly. The following was taken directly from the Sigg website:
Using a premium reusable bottle like SIGG greatly helps reduce unnecessary environmental waste caused by plastic PET water bottles. Sadly, Americans add over 30 million plastic water bottles to our nation's landfills – everyday!
While not everyone is ready to purchase a hybrid vehicle, we believe every little bit helps. And thinking "reusable" instead of "disposable" is a great place to start. So, Rise Above Plastic – and consider the advantages of hydrating with a SIGG.
Sigg is charitable, to boot. The company donates 1% of all sales to environmental causes.
These bottles are awesome and at approximately 20 bucks a pop (depending on the style) they are well worth the investment for something that will likely last the rest of your life. So stop polluting the earth and your health with those plastic water bottles and get yourself a Sigg. Thank you, Patrick!
PS - Sigg makes travel mugs, too.

Good for you! I was checking these SIGG bottles out recently too...I'd be interested to hear how you like them. I am thinking of buying one. I used to use a large glass bottle because I am so worried about the leaching aspect of most plastic bottles...but the glass can get heavy. So I think I'll get a SIGG, but I want to hear how people like them....are they fairly lightweight? I found a good price here:

Thanks for the comment, Dutch. I love my Sigg. I love it so much I went out and bought one for my niece and a spare for my fiance to keep at work. My aunt just bought one too! I'm getting the entire family hooked! They are incredibly lightweight and don't leave any taste in your water. I hope you get one. Enjoy!
I'm glad your Sigg is working out, Beth. Just a little tip, be careful about how you carry your Sigg and where you put it, some of the models tend to dent very easily. Within the first couple weeks of using my Sigg it was dented in several places, just from the impact of setting (not dropping) my backpack down on the floor with the bottle inside. Some people don't seem to have any trouble with dents, and others do, so I hope you are one of the lucky ones. I have read that the dents don't affect the performance of the bottle, but they sure look awful. Hope this helps.
