Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Powder-coat cap degradation over time, Bacterial biofilm in cap threads and seals and Thermal stress on seals at extreme temperatures on the Klean Kanteen and not on the Stanley.
  • We flag Silicone seal degradation and Microplastic shedding from seals on the Stanley and not on the Klean Kanteen.
  • The Klean Kanteen is Stainless steel bottle, stainless steel cap where the Stanley is Stainless steel body, plastic cap with silicone seals, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Klean Kanteen is the one to buy.
