Contigo 24 oz. Ashland Chill 2.0 Water Bottle - Blue Poppy

I absolutely love Contigo water bottles and coffee mugs and have used them for years. I recently purchased this as some of my water bottles needed replaced and we were taking a road trip to the beach. Just as all my previous Contigo purchases, this did not leak at all and the spout is easy to open and close. I threw this in my beach tote in the morning with some ice and my bag stayed completely dry. No leaks and no sweating occurred due to the temperature difference. It stayed cold for hours and I would still have ice when we returned to our condo. It fit perfectly in my cup holder in the car. It is also resilient as my 4 year old has already dropped it a few times and the seal still functions perfectly. The only potential downside is that the bottle itself is a bit taller than most standard water bottles and I have to store on its side in the cabinet when clean versus standing up, but I gladly accept this so I can have 24 ounces of insulated, cold water, without sweating. (The included photo shows this bottle next to a normal size, for reference. Note that with the lid on, it is the same height, but the bottle itself is taller.) Moral of the story, this is my new favorite water bottle. It keeps things cold, does not leak or sweat, fits in a standard cup holder, and I love the color!
