UPDATE: Just received the bottle of Nalgene I ordered to replace this. The plastic wrap on the replacement bottle peeled off easily, making it nearly impossible to remove the wrap on this obviously defective bottle. and it was impossible to remove them without damaging the appearance of the bottle. Also, the lid was not attached. I was able to install it and would not return it for that reason, but it indicates a quality control issue with the manufacturing. I have attached two photos showing the problem. The film was almost impossible to remove, but it looked too ugly to leave. However, I am not scolding Nalgene bottles. This was my fourth and I ordered it as a replacement. I've never had this problem with other Nalgene bottles. I hope this was a one off manufacturing defect, although I noticed another reviewer had the same experience.
