Unmotivated product placement, but I'm really into 316 stainless. I use HydroFlasks (http://www.hydroflask.com/ http://www.hydroflask.com/), from Amazon. They're heavier by far than either plastic or aluminum-with-bpa-lining, or single-walled stainless, but incredibly durable, and being able to have a freezing or hot beverage inside the container for a day or two is pretty awesome. An OXO bottle brush is pretty essential to cleaning; I then use boiling water, soap, and sometimes bleach to clean them out. I wish I could get a run of them custom printed as promotional items, and ideally cerakoted, but that would be horrible overkill. (they're also a good way to transport high quality alcohol into settings where alcohol may not be so permissible...)

Another unmotivated product placement, this time for toddlers that can use straw cups. For our kids we bought the following and it works very well together - Stainless steel tumblers: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G9I8N9W/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G9I8N9W/ Silicone caps: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084GF5P2/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084GF5P2/ Silicone straws: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084GF7GO/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084GF7GO/ I realize the tumblers are no longer in stock but the caps are pretty universal and can fit on various sized cups. Make sure you don't give your kids stainless steel straws, they're incredibly dangerous for young children.

I use http://www.kleankanteen.com/ http://www.kleankanteen.com/ , works too. On the other hand, it's just a steel bottle. What could possibly not work?

  I like those too, but things which could go wrong in other bottles are: threading, actual steel used, liners (wtf), and the plastic used for the cap. I use the kk caps with the hydroflask (compatible).

Recently bought a HydroFlasks, but was disappointed to find it is not dishwasher safe. That put a huge damper on my enthusiasm. (Mainly because while I might remember, I'm sure the other people in my family will not.)
