Can you put this canteen in the freezer and the lid not closed tightly? I like my water frozen.

No; it will form a layer of ice on top, below the narrower throat. Then the remaining water below will freeze and burst the canteen. (I did this with a favorite bottle; fascinating to see steel ripped, but not what I had intended).

I wouldn't put it in the freezer !! I like my water extremely cold as well, so I put ice cubes in it and they are still there 8 hrs later !! This Klean Kanteen is one of the best things I have ever bought for myself. I use the small one for coffee and it stays piping hot for over 5 hours at a time. I am a flight attendant and coffee goes cold real quick in a cup so I take this on board with me and I know my coffee is going to be hot hours later even after I finish my flight and am on the way home.

First, I would advise against it. Steel does not stretch the same way a plastic water bottle does. Second, and more importantly, because it is insulated it will take a l-o-n-g time to freeze solid, and once it does you won't be able to drink it... it will be frozen solid. If you FILL it with ice cubes before adding (cool) water, you will still have ice at the end of the day. I tend towards about 2/3 full of ice then filling with water and I still have some ice left the next morning. There is absolutely no need to try to freeze it solid, doing so will probably destroy your wonderful Kanteen, and should you succeed it won't melt fast enough to be able to enjoy the ice cold water.

yes, you could. It is a great canteen and the only one my dog will drink out of. I highly recommend it

I haven't put it in the freezer but it's metal and should be ok. I would do so.

No, but liquids expand when frozen so leave a couple of inches of headroom good luck!

No you can't just put a bowl of water hot and it will defrost inside of freezer

No, it is not freezer safe. Just the ice pack. The nice pack keeps the water cold for a good 8 hrs... Have not tried longer.

Hi. Mine has never come on ice and I never have refrigerated. I think if it is kept from high temperatures you are ok.

Haven't tried it in the freezer. The divided container does fine in the dishwasher, but don't put the lid in there; it will warp and the gasket comes off.

No and why would you want it to. Even if all the ice melts at least your drinks would still be in cold water. Also, after having this at the lake for a couple of long hot summer days, the best thing to do is to set a regular cooler inside of it. Ice stays much longer. What ever size cooler you can fit in there, it will hold it. We have a 56 quart cooler with wheels and it fits in there just fine. Hope this helps. This thing is super though and if you plan to spend all day floating, this is a must.

I don't know if you can freeze it or not , I had this bucket for a while just sitting on my shelf The lid to the bucket makes a very tight seal when you put it back on , its a resealable lid This is my first bucket so I can't say long term but I think it will keep for a good while in the bucket I wonder also if you could also vacuum pack some in individual bags to keep it fresh. I am just gonna keep in the bucket this time to see how it goes

Yes, it's like a plastic cup that can be screwed into the lid. So you can fill it halfway with water and put it in the freezer (it just won't have a cap on it, like a cup). As your ice melts it will not mix with the tea.

As far as I know, fine! We've had ours for six months with no problems. (There is no freezer compartment.)

No. Just put it in the freezer. When its frozen then put your drink in it and squish it around.

Do not freeze this bottle or filter. It is designed to be used with liquid water. There are other water bottles you can freeze but most plastic ones would just burst when the water freezes. Short answer to your question is no.

I never tried freezing it because of how hard the actual nipple part was. I would say yes, you would be able to freeze it; however, its already hard enough. The rubber is pretty thick. Hope this answers your question.

I wouldn't. Water expands when frozen and it might bend the bottle to the point where the cap wouldn't seal.
