Question about Sigg bottle
Beth is complaining that the unfiltered apple juice I put in her Sigg bottle for lunch tastes bad and that is why she will not drink it. Anyone else experienced this. I know it gets a little warm so I knit a "sock" to go around it out of wool. That seems to help. We do not have apple wine when we get home from school. But, now I am wondering if perhaps I need to go with something either plain stainless or insulated or both.

I've never had a problem with our Sigg bottles (had them for about 3 years). We mostly drink water out of them though. Could the mouth part need to be dismantled & washed? I know my DD stopped drinking from hers a week ago because she said the water way yucky, she was fine drinking out of mine with the same water so I cleaned the mouth piece really well & it seems fine again. Sigg is supposted to be good for everything as long as you don't freeze the bottles. *pop*.

I dismantle the tops every wash. Water does taste fine, so does soy milk. But they complain about the juices. I may be replacing them for them. They are really too big for their lunch boxes anyway. I have one of my own so I do not need to keep 4 extra bottles.

Heather, what section are they in at Walmart? I can't find ANY thermoses at walmart. Most times I have trouble finding anything in that place. Are they in kitchen or hunting?
nak they only had a couple left at the bypass one, mixed in w their lunchboxes. i JUST bought the 2nd like 2 days ago and i saw 2 more and a food jar. i didnt dig on shelves thoght, there may b more. in target they are in w camping. target also has beverage cups i stainless good for home. -- like 1st one here ezcept i dont think it twists-- set of 2 for 10 http://www.sweetmarias.com/prod.trav...-bottles.shtml
Michelle. When you repalce your kids Sigg bottles are you going to sell them, hint hint? I'd love to get one for my neice & a friends son since both LOVE to drink out of mine but I can't justify full price YK. JLMK.
I've actually frozen juice in my dd's sigg for school - I only fill it about half way, then place it in the freezer on an angle (so the juice freezes on an angle as well) - fill it up in the morning and she has cold juice all day.
Good luck with your dilemma - it's tough to spend that much for a product and have it not work for you.

I was considering putting all together tonight, juice, bottle and wool cover, and putting it in the fridge so as to start with it all cold. But, Sonya, that sounds better. I do not fill theirs anyway. They are the larger ones (.5 action). Thanks.
