Review on Contigo Autospout Ashland Water Bottle in 24oz, Radiant Orchid color by John Milligan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Hold straw securely in cap

I've been using Contigo Ashland/Addison water bottles for about 4 or 5 years. I used them for the gym on the 1st which I like because I could quickly grab them with one hand, press the button and quickly bring them to my mouth without hitting or banging the roof of your mouth or teeth with a hard plastic grommet suffocate what happens to me with open spouts. I use it every day during the day and keep one by my bed at night and always carry it with me wherever I go. After reading many reviews on it I would like to say to anyone who says it leaks, double check how secure the straw is. Anytime I've had a leak or squeak problem, I usually just had to make sure the straw was secure in the lid. . I've had problems with mold in the sink, but that's due to my own inattention. I left it in a friend's hot car and it stayed there for weeks so it was my own negligence. I had no direct issues with this water bottle and how it was made. I would complain about the insulation, except that I deliberately didn't get a water bottle with insulation because I wanted to look inside my water bottle. I had to choose the lesser evil, and for me the ability to see that what I'm drinking is pure is more important than keeping it cold.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Vulgarity
