Default Metal Water bottles.

Which would be better stainless steal from Klean Kanteen or an Aluminum one from SIGG?

Personally I like Stainless steal better.
I just have the mental distrust of Aluminum about poisons..probably a little paranoia about Aluminum poisoning.

Sigg aluminum bottles have a baked on water based coating on the inside.

Over summer (because in winter I drink nowhere near enough water), I have a polycarbonate waterbottle that takes refreezable "ice tubes". When I drink water, I want it ice cold.

Is it one of the "bad" bottles or is it an ok one?

No, I checked that - its a food grade plastic. No leaching of lead, which has the downside of me needing to be careful with it because it will shatter if dropped on a hard surface.

yeah, sigg flasks are safe. They're coated so well they can hold carbonated drinks and fruit juices! and the coating is flexible so if it gets dented, the coating remains intact!
