Contigo Ashland Water Bottle, 32 oz, Blueberry

Bought this as a gift; personalized it with UV DTF, turn out pretty good, and my sister in law, loves it.

I've been using the Contigo Ashland 2.0 for a few weeks now, and it's quickly become my go-to water bottle for daily use. Here’s a breakdown of my experience: Pros: Leak-Proof Design: The Autosput technology really works. I toss this bottle into my bag without worrying about spills. Secure Lid Lock: The button lock adds an extra layer of security, especially when traveling. Angled Straw: It’s surprisingly effective at helping you sip every last drop without tilting the bottle awkwardly. Spout Cover: Great for keeping the drinking area clean, especially when outdoors. Comfortable Handle: The integrated handle is sturdy and makes it easy to carry around. Dishwasher Safe: Cleaning is a breeze—just toss it on the top rack. Fits Car Cup Holders: A small but appreciated detail for commuters. Cons: Straw Cleaning: While the bottle is dishwasher safe, the straw can be a bit tricky to clean thoroughly without a brush. Plastic Feel: The Tritan plastic is durable, but some users might prefer a more premium material like stainless steel. Overall Impression: This bottle strikes a great balance between functionality and convenience. Whether you're using it at the gym, in the car, or at your desk, it performs reliably. The Juniper color is also a nice touch—subtle yet stylish.

I ordered this bottle twice. The first time I was very satisfied. It has lasted me for more than six months. The second time it arrived very nicely, but it drips a lot and already has grooves from which it drips.

I drink a LOT of water (well over a gallon a day), so my wants with a hydration bottle aren't so much oriented toward "something I'll actually use, and frequently," but more "something I don't have to refill 10 times a day," and this bottle fits that really well. The plastic is sturdy, the silicon is shaped well and functional, and at forty ounces I only have to fill it four times a day. The only reason I've subtracted a star is because the straw isn't very well designed. (But it was easy to correct; see below.) The straw is thick plastic, and wide, so that part's great. But it is centered in the bottle, and the bottom of the bottle has an inverted dimple pushing up into the space, so the straw tens to click into place directly over that raised dimple, which messes with the suction. (To fix this, I just grabbed my utility saw and sawed off about 1/8th of an inch. I initially tried to use heavy kitchen shears, but the straw is just too sturdy. Anyway, it's very nearly a perfect bottle now, and if the straw had come 1/8th of an inch shorter, I'd give it five stars.)

Buy far these are the best water bottles for sporting events we have ever used. The two pack was excellent for my wife and I to each have one. I take it to all my tournaments and the locking mechanism works very well to prevent spills.

Fast delivery, quality product and careful packaging that protects it perfectly. Definitely highly recommended.

Muy buena calidad, no se riega y es bastante grande

These are TERRIBLE. We loved our previous Contigo water bottles which finally wore out - we thought these were the replacement. But UGH. We will never buy water bottles online again - always in the store so we can see them from all directions. Of course we still wouldn't catch the fact that THEY ALL DRIP! 1. THEY ALL DRIP! We have had these for months. 2 people, 4 water bottles, and it is rare that they don't drip when on their side - and possibly it just depends which side it is lying on? One bottle faulty, I could understand (manufacturing fault) - but FOUR?! In four different colors?! 2. The "handles" don't clip. So what is the point? These bottles will hang on a hook, but how many people have hooks to hang their water bottles on? How many people want to carry their bottles by a handle all the time? Maybe once in a while, but, honestly I don't see the point. The last model we had, had a clip on the handle so we could clip them onto things like belt loops and backpack straps for easy access when out and about. These have to go _in_ a bag, where they have to be dug out and therefore we don't access them as often as we should and therefore dehydrate. 3. (Following from 2) It is difficult to attach a clip. A carabiner can slide off the "handle" when unclipping it from the bag strap. Plus, a carabiner won't allow the handle to go flat, which makes it difficult to drink from without taking the catabiner off. 4. The straw design. You'd think it's just a straw. The photo shows it going down the middle of the bottle. Nope. The straw angles *away* from the "sippy" part. The result? When you take a drink with the bottle at an angle (don't most people do this?), you get zero water even though there is plenty in it. You literally have to hold the bottle straight up - or angle it towards you, or drink with the "sippy" on the side opposite your body which is just awkward - just to get the last few ounces out of it! 5. (Following from 4). Even when you try to angle the straw so it will point towards you when you're drinking "normally", as you twist the top back on, the straw (usually) "drags" along the bottom of the water bottle so once the top is screwed on fully, the straw is again pointing away from you.
