Review on 💜 24oz Radiant Orchid Contigo AUTOSPOUT Straw Addison Water Bottle by Drexel Wortham

I love this water bottle! However, I found it very difficult to get the water out through the straw. Tried unscrewing the cap a bit and even tried loosening the black plug in the cap (which creates a seal by creating a vacuum. You can't pull water through the straw if there's a vacuum in the bottle!). To fix this I had to unplug the little black connector in the lid. It's much easier to drink from it, but the bottle is already leaking. I sealed the hole with a small piece of tape and this prevents a major leak but allows enough air to escape to prevent a vacuum from forming. Plan to replace it with epoxy or something similar with a small air hole. I lost a star because I had to break the seal to use it properly.
