Review on Contigo Autospout Ashland Water Bottle Kitchen & Dining in Travel & To-Go Drinkware by Kendro Givens

Bought this bottle at the end of June. I usually clean it from time to time, but recently while cleaning I noticed a black spot inside the spout, the white part we drink from. I used a mini bottle cleaner and a makeup tip to poke the hole and was disappointed to find black mold inside. It's not an obvious place to look for a cleaning. I am so outraged that I use the bottle constantly in the last month of pregnancy and for breastfeeding. I complained about a sore throat and a dry throat for several months, I thought it was just the dry air in our new apartment. I don't know if there is a real connection. Attention buyers! I would avoid at all costs. The sleek design is not worth drinking moldy water and getting sick!
