27oz Wide Water Bottle with Loop Cap vs Self-Cleaning Bottle: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Cap or closure contamination and Bacterial or mold growth from moisture retention on the Klean Kanteen and not on the LARQ.
• We flag Bacterial growth in filter cartridge if not maintained, Leachables from cap and seal polymers, Borosilicate glass fracture or thermal shock and Filter media efficacy degradation and contaminant breakthrough on the LARQ and not on the Klean Kanteen.
• The Klean Kanteen is 18/8 stainless steel, no interior coating where the LARQ is Borosilicate glass bottle, activated carbon filter cartridge, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• The gap is 30 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Klean Kanteen is the one to buy.
