Curious if anyone else has problems with these leaking? I have the sippy cup size with the sippy spout, and all three of mine leak from the top??:

I had some trouble at first, but I think I just wasn't assembling them correctly. I don't know how exactly to explain it, but it seemed like there was a way to put everything together that fit just right. If things were a bit askew we had leaks. Also if the valve thingy wasn't perfectly flat, it didn't work right.

I just recently started having a problem with mine leaking from the top. I think this is because my son has dropped it one too many times and the top doesn't stay tightened while he is carrying it around. I think we're going to get a new top for ours now, because I really love the klean kanteen otherwise!

I just got one with the sippy spout and mine leaks terribly too. I may have to get a different top.

I'm hoping my Sigg works better (my son is getting it in his easter basket so we'll see!)

I know several people who have the KK sippy bottles and we've all had leaking problems. The best solution for all of us (5) was to get the soft sippy piece (It's white), for some reason that one doesn't leak.

do these keep drinks cold? i have been researching them and see that they are single walled so assume that they do not. we have one sigg and it doesn't. i think sigg may have little "jackets" that you put around them to keep them cool. thanks!

They keep stuff fairly cold. I use some of my DH's koozies (sp?) the foam things that go around a can of soda or beer... anyways, those insulate them pretty well. Also helps keep the toes protected when they get dropped.

I have the sport tops, no leaking.

FWIW, my Dh figured out that it may have to do with the fact that the rim of the kanteen covers the air hole in the avent sippy top. I'm going to just get the sport top. My son prefers those anyway.
