Auditing my take away coffee cops since I can get a discount if I use it, people seem to be accepting them again and lets face it tinyest is FAR more likely to get me crook anyway. Turns out I need 2 lids and 2 rubber bands. A new glass one is 30 something bucks, so wanna assume what the lids and bands cost? Yep. 50 bucks. Far out. So much for environmentally friendly. Mrs swears she has seen them in op shops but I never have, can anyone confirm? Or did anyone find a cheaper way to get replacement parts?
I just had the same experience with water bottles. Thought I had a good simple stainless steel option until I lost the lid o-ring in a dishwasher while travelling.....eventually gave up trying to get a replacement and just bought a new one (with an all in one lid).
what diameter opening? you can get replacement lids at biome
Not for the specific kleen kanteen one I had. Tried emailing the distributors and everything (they sent me one and it was the wrong size). Will keep my eye out for a generic replacement then give it away
