Already got my Klein bottle last year!

(I recommend everyone do it—the personal notes from Cliff are priceless.)

I bought one for my dad a long time ago. I was late in ordering (if memory serves) and asked if I could pick it up in person. Not only did Cliff say yes, but he gave me a tour of his shop and let me watch as he retrieved the bottle from his crawl space storage with a robot he’d built. Incredible customer service!

I bought one for my sister a few years ago. Can confirm, the email chain alone is worth it. :D

Bought my wife a pair of Klein bottle earrings. They arrived with pictures Cliff had taken of them in his garden. Lovely man.
