Crocodile Creek Fire Truck Kids Drinking Bottle

We bought these bottles (along with the backpacks) because we were looking for an eco-option for our kids, to replace plastic bottles and juice boxes.

Problems: 1) the paint chips ALOT, even though we handwashed them; 2) the stainless steel reacts with the juice we put in the bottle (apple, grape) making it rancid (must not be food-grade stainless); 3) the tops leaked unless closed VERY tightly and even then they were loose. My kids could get liquid from the pull-up spout without it even being pulled out; 4) All the parts were hard to clean. The tops didn''t clean in the dishwasher so I finally had to just leave them soaking every night in hot soapy water.

I like Crocodile Creek''s other products but this one is not a winner.

I was really excited about this bottle the other day until I looked at the information sheet inside. I noticed that it said "Phthalate Free" and "BPA Free" but then for lead it says "Lead safe". Immediately I was wondering why not "lead free". Was this a typo or a euphemistic way of saying that it does contain lead, but at safe levels. Well, I speak Spanish and German as well as English and noticed that the translations for those indicate in Spanish "without lead" and German "lead free". This further lead to my confusion. I''m sorry, call me paranoid, but "lead safe" just sounds weird especially after having just used "free" with BPA and Phthalate. Was this an intentional inconsistency?

Thoughts?

My three-year-old loves his firetruck bottle. The only problem is that it leaks if it tips over. As long as I make sure it''s upright, it works.
