Contigo Autoseal Chill Vacuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle, 24 Oz., Monaco

I’ve had this water bottle for 6 years, and it is honestly one of the best purchases I ever made. I’ve had a Yeti, and while the Yeti kept my drinks colder for longer, the durability, and dependability of this bottle is unmatched.

Before I bought this product, I had gone through untold water bottles, a lot of water bottles, none of which ever gave me what I needed. You see, my daughter and ex-wife used to buy more and more water bottles of varying kinds. They were hoarders. Water bottle hoarders. There were plastic ones, metal ones, ones that looked like they were wooden. Some had no handles, others leaked down the front of my shirt. Little did I know this would eventually set me up to become a water bottle aficionado. A specific set of skills I never sought, but garnered. But with so many water bottles, and none perfect, I falsely assumed I had been to the water bottle mountaintop, and this was "all there was ever going to be".Then I found this water bottle, One click and my life was never to be the same.I'll never have the words to capture all the beauty and essence of this water bottle unicorn, but here are a few basics to at least get you started in understanding the new life path you will take when you get one of these:1) It fits everywhere I need it to fit, next to my bed, in my office, but most importantly, in my finicky, small car cupholder.2) It keeps the water cold, very long. Just like lions in the Savannah, when you go to take a drink, if the water is not cool, your innate senses tell you the water is tepid, not freshly bubbling up from a spring. But the cool water dispensed by this marvel satisfies the deepest, primordial desire to feel crisp, coolness throughout the mouth and throat.3) It never drips or leaks. Let me tell you, others do. Most of the places I go throughout the day are not appropriate for a wet t-shirt contest, even though I know it brings all eyes on me.4) It's easy to drink from. One hand only. This is now about safety. With only one hand needed, I can drive and sip at the same time, one hand on the bottle while the other hand safely manages the steering wheel and scrolls through TikTok uninterrupted by the sweet sipping.5) It has a little pop-up handle. This may be the most important feature. When you get to your destination, you simply slide the water bottle over a finger, any finger. People ask, “Yeah, what about my Pinky?”. Yes. The pinky, or any finger. Maybe even the thumb. This way, your hands are free to carry your Chihuahua in one hand, and your man purse in your other hand (PSA, please refrain from placing the Chihuahua in the hand purse).6) It looks good. Really good. Looks matter. Are you dressed nicely? Shoes polished, shirt clean and crisp? Yes. Now add this accessory and you go from a 10 to an 11! Imagine your coworkers all turning and popping their heads over their cubicles as you strut into the office, in slow motion, waving your head back and forth, your hair flowing, and then the image of this bottle dangling so effortlessly from your pinky.There is only one problem with this water bottle: You're going to have to learn how to fight off women, at the office, at Costco, at the Poke shop, just about everywhere.

I decided to buy a new water bottle after my other (plastic) Contigo bottle started to leak. I enjoyed having the button to press to drink as I find it more convenient than having to unscrew a lid every time, so I really wanted to find a bottle with that same lid design. This is my first time owning an insulated stainless-steel bottle, I was a little unsure of spending this much money on a bottle, when there are other cheaper options available. But the idea of keeping water cold for a long time very much appealed to me. This bottle definitely keeps water cold for a long time, if you use ice the ice will stay frozen for hours. Which is great if you're like me and enjoy drinking cold water. I use it for everything, at home, at the gym, hiking, at work. It's my water drinking device of choice and I love it. I'm very happy with it. After a few months of use a very small amount of the paint has chipped off, but that was to be expected and I really don't care, I can always repaint it if i really wanted to. If dropped this bottle tends to fall on the lid, which I've done multiple times and has left small dents in the sipping part. But that's my fault for not being careful and aside from that tiny little bit of damage it has taken the beating well. It has also never leaked which is important to me. This bottle is exactly what I wanted, and I'm pretty sure if I don't lose it I will have this bottle for years to come, so I definitely think it is worth the money.

I bought this water bottle one year ago to be my every day, all day water bottle. It worked as advertised. It kept my water cold for a long time. Ice cubes would stay as ice for the whole 8 hour day, even in summer. The water would still be cold even if I left the water bottle in direct sunlight or the hot car, though the exterior off the water bottle was scorching hot. It was generally leak proof, though there is a vent in the top water can leak out of, so don't set it on its side. I bought the Contigo brushes to wash it and don't regret that because the mouth piece needs that little brush to get it washed well.However.. beware, it is NOT sturdy! I dropped it from 3 feet shortly after getting it and it dented the bottom, but still worked fine. The finish scrapes off easily though, like from drops or impacts, and every day use. It did not survive the most recent 3 for drop unfortunately. The water still tastes good and generally stays cold but not like before and ice is gone as if at room temperature, and there's condensation at the top indicating it is no longer sealing. I also noticed that I can't get the mouth piece clean anymore... As if bacteria are getting into the plastic or something.However, for the price I got a great water bottle and I'm ordering a replacement. If you use it less than daily and aren't clumsy like me, it might last you longer than a year.

El color azul es una especie de lamina que se desprende medio fácil, por lo demás muy bien (así se ve después de 4 años)
