Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Silicone gasket degradation, Bacterial growth in vacuum seal and Surface corrosion under acidic conditions on the Klean Kanteen and not on the OXO.
  • We flag Microplastics from container degradation and Microbial growth in gasket seal on the OXO and not on the Klean Kanteen.
  • The Klean Kanteen is Stainless steel body, silicone gasket lid seal where the OXO is Polypropylene (PP) plastic container with silicone gasket, 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.
