24 Oz. Contigo Autoseal Chill Stainless Steel Water Bottle in Scuba for Ultimate Refreshment Review

I've been carrying bottled water since the late 1980's. I've been using Sigg bottles for about 10 years and have never found anything better. Until now. This bottle keeps water ice cold for hours as everyone says. The selling point for me is the spout. I never have to unscrew the lid or open the lid. Press the button and the water will flow straight down. Another feature I like is that it has a ring at the top to hang on your finger (hard to tell in some photos). Bought one for everyone in the…

I bought two of these bottles, one for cycling and one for my wife. My wife likes to drink ice water at night when she goes to bed. I used it for the first time last night. When I woke up this morning I was curious if there was still ice in the bin. I shook it and heard nothing. I thought, well, that doesn't fit. We also have a Contigo and it keeps its ice cubes all night. I was disappointed. I then opened it up to drain and wash out the old water when I realized the reason I didn't feel or…

This was one of my best purchases. This bottle keeps ice/drinks cold for more than a day. I usually get up around 6am and sit down on ice and water or iced tea. I add more liquid throughout the day.

I like these seals and tightness. I eat one in my gym bag in the morning and when I get home from work and go to the gym it's…

I really liked this water bottle and used it almost daily for several months. After the first few weeks, I occasionally noticed a strange smell. I cleaned it after each use (I'll admit I washed it more often at times, but at least once a week I washed the cap in the dishwasher and hand washed the bottle). I still had the smell so I started wiping every part I could reach with a bottle scraper. This created black particles that started to bother me. I have never used dairy or other organic…

Finally! Holy Grail! I used to have a similar armored stainless steel vacuum flask (made by Thermos) but the lid was cheap plastic. A simple drop will shatter the flip cover, rendering it unusable. BUT otherwise I really liked the design. KEY things you need in a good water bottle: 1) Keeps cold for >12 hours (this reads 18 hours and I believe if kept full. Obviously at low volume it doesn't stay that cold and for a long time). 2) Sturdy (let's face it, you'll eventually drop it) 3)…
