Contigo Cortland Chill 2.0 Vacuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle Spill-Proof Lid Preserves Temperature for Hours 24oz 2-Pack Juniper & Dragonfruit Ideal for Travel and Daily Use

There are a few things that determine if a water bottle is “good” to me: • Look • How easy it is to drink water ( is it vented for easy water and air flow?) • Is it neat/leak proof? • Easy to clean • Capacity So, I am a Gallon of water a day drinker. It’s easier to drink four, 32 oz bottles than 5 or more from a smaller bottle. I typically use the 32 oz plastic bottles but, I have a 24 oz stainless steel auto-seal bottle that I use when I go to theme parks. The thing that I noticed is that of course, vacuum sealed thermal bottles, maintain their temperature, without regard to the weather around, for the most part. I found myself taking the smaller bottle to the gym because now that it is spring, my gym, and I am glad, they do not turn the air conditioning on while we work out, thus making it 80 °plus, in the gym. The stainless steel would stay cold but I needed it to hold more… ta dahhhhh! Enter, Contigo. One reason I stopped using my other smaller bottle is because I had an ER nurse that I know tell me that if I got in an accident and that thing went flying, I could get hit in the head. Well to my surprise, while I tried before this a 32 oz bottle that “fit” my cup holder, it fit so badly ( Ford Edge) that it would wobble and fall. This bottle, it doesn’t fit all the way down in the cup holder but it fits so snugly, not that I don’t think that it would dislodge in an accident but, I wouldn’t be surprised if it did not. I love the look of this smooth black color. The Auto Seal, doesn’t leak and it’s awesome for someone like me that hates those straws you have to touch. The auto seal is vented so you can gulp as much water, easily, with great air flow as you need. I really love this and I hope it never gets discontinued. Love this! The only drawback is… there is no way I’m chancing the Stainless Steel part and putting this in the dishwasher but I don’t see another way to TRULY clean the lid. This lid… I run It through the dishwasher at least every couple days because the underneath part, where the mechanisms are… there is no way to REALLY clean it otherwise.

A great water bottle. It has a lock to minimize spill so doesn't spill much, hardly at all, Keeps liquids cold and warm for longer. I prefer drinking warm water so I find it keeps it warm for a good while. It has a comfortable grip given its slim build. Very strong. I've dropped it a couple of times on the ground and only chipped a bit but didn't dent. Great value for money. Upon purchase, it had no smell but if you don't wash it properly, there is a slight aftertaste in the water. I recommend soaking overnight in soapy warm water with vinegar before use.

I've had three of these over the years and they are easy to clean, durable, and convenient to use. Ice lasts for many hours to keep water super cold. They don't fit in any cup-holder I've come across, and the paint tends to chip. I don't treat them delicately so I'll accept a chipped and dented exterior as my fault. I wish they had more colors available in the 32 oz size, but the Autoseal lid is interchangeable with any similarly styled Contigo cup

I’m a big fan of the Contigo Autoseal insulated water bottles, I have had many versions of them over the years and I think this last version is the best yet! I use my water bottle every single day and keep it on my nightstand at night too, so this thing is basically with me all the time, getting refilled numerous times throughout each day. I love that it holds 32oz and keeps it well insulated throughout the day. The trigger mechanism is my favorite for using water bottles because I’m not a fan of using straws to drink water. I prefer to tip this bad boy upside down, squeeze that trigger, and let gravity do the rest! This is the biggest reason why I prefer the Contigo Autoseal bottles; there’s something satisfying about simply picking up the water bottle and instantly being able to drink without flipping up straws or latches and then having to flip or close them after I’m done drinking. I’ve had my previous version of the Contigo Autoseal for years and it is still working fine but the bottle has seen some wear & tear so I decided to upgrade it. Here are some of the improvements that are very welcomed compared to the previous version of the Autoseal bottle: 1. The Autoseal mechanism in the lid can now be flipped out to be cleaned…this is a game changer! The old version didn’t allow this and was extremely difficult to try and clean the internal components in the lid. 2. The trigger lock is a great addition and works well especially if the bottle is in a backpack so I don’t have to worry about the trigger accidentally being pressed and water leaking out. 3. The carry handle is improved in a few ways. It now has a metal pin going through it then through the actual mounts on the lid, as well as the mouthpiece cover so it is all securely connected. The old version basically just clipped around 2 plastic pins of the lid with nothing securing either side which lead to me accidentally detaching the handle a few times when I picked up the bottle at a weird angle by the handle. The new handle also has a little lip on the back edge, making it easier to flip up out of the locked position. 4. The new bottle seems to keep my water colder for longer so there may have been an improvement to the insulation materials used in the bottle itself compared to the old version. My only complaint about any of the Contigo 32oz bottles is just the fact that they don’t fit in most standard cupholders (the 24oz versions fit fine but I like having more water in my bottle), I’m used to this and have cupholder extensions in my cars for this very reason. The tradeoff is by having a wider bottom of the bottle, it is less prone to tipping over compared to the bottles that are more top-heavy in their design. Overall, I’m really happy with the updates to this new version of the Contigo Autoseal, especially with the ability to more easily clean the spout mechanism. I also appreciate the locking trigger as well as the updated handle design. Contigo did an excellent job updating my favorite water bottle to make it even better. This bottle will hopefully serve me well for years to come!

My favorite water bottles! I have bought this set of two Contigo Autoseal water bottles every time I see them go on sale. I only have to replace lost bottles, because they withstand a lot of abuse! I hate washing straws, and like to chug water, so these are perfect. These insulate very well. If you fill it with ice and water in the morning, it will keep the ice frozen with multiple refills of water throughout the day. I live in the desert Southwest, and always have my water bottle with me. The water bottles have been dropped repeatedly on concrete and blacktop, but still work perfectly after years of abuse from myself and my kids. The handles are in perfect condition, the lid on the mouth piece is intact, the top still screws on securely and our water still stays cold all day, even in triple digit temperatures. We can leave the bottle in the car, in direct sunlight, and the water inside stays cold; just be careful to not burn yourself holding the metal exterior that gets super hot! This isn't a concern across most of the US, but in the desert we know the drill, and appreciate having that cold water when we need it. My other favorite quality of these water bottles is that they are dishwasher safe. The entire thing goes into the dishwasher to be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected for continuous daily use. To get the lid completely cleaned, just push open the part inside the lid that closes the spout, and put back the cover that protects the part you put your mouth on. Put the lid face down in the top rack of the dishwasher, and you will never have to scrub the water bottle or lid to keep it clean. The lid also has a locking switch to prevent spills and leaks in backpacks or purses. The lock makes sure the autoseal button cannot be pressed at all. This is The Best waterbottle for kids, in my opinion. They are durable to survive daily abuse, and still work flawlessly. Now, if the kids could just keep track of them...

I have use Contigo bottles for 20 years or more. I recall getting my first bottle from Costco. Even though many brands came after, I remained loyal to Contigo, specifically to their AUTOSEAL one hand operation cap because it was simply the best. Hydroflask came along with that 'lifetime warranty" thing and I was tempted... but low and behold, Contigo ALSO had a lifetime warranty. So i've been getting replacement caps for many years! My kids first sippy cups were also contigo, but as they grew up, they fell for the latest fads while I remained with my good old trusted Contigo Autoseal bottle. Why autoseal? It is simply a one hand operation and it has improved through the years to make it easier to clean as well. I finally gave in to get a new bottle. But it had to be a CONTIGO AUTOSEAL as well. I just wanted a taller, slightly bigger capacity, bottle to use at home. My original 16oz. bottle always fitted the car cup holder. And thinking that the new bigger bottle would too (as described) got me excited as well... but it does not quite fit, hence the 4 stars, however I have a 2010 vehicle... so it might not be all Contigo's fault. However the winner feature of this new bottle is the NEW AND IMPROVED AUTOSEAL CAP. What else could I ask for in a one handed operation cap that now has a loop to hold the bottle better, a lock, and even a cap to keep the spout clean and everything folds and lock in place and is never on the way of drinking while driving! Simply awesome. One thing I would love to have is a silicone boot or something like that because the beautiful painted bottle looks like a fancy car glossy paint job and would hate for it to get chipped and we all know that will happen eventually! Hope Contigo will keep making their bottles with AUTOSEAL caps forever because that is how long I plan to keep on using them!

I like this model Contigo H2O bottle a lot. It has a flip open cover which keeps the drinking orifice contact surface clean. Easy to operate, valve locking slide button prevents accidental spills which could occur with older models. It has a large push button that opens a valve for one handed drinking and provides a leakproof seal. internal parts of cap and wide mouth double stainless thermal bottle are easy to clean and the double wall stainless bottle keeps contents cold all day on the trail. New metal handle hinge pivot point is an improvement over plastic molded ones on older models, which eventually wore out causing the handles to fall off. The things I like the most about this model are that it doesn’t have the drinking straw with a noisy vent, as does the Ashland and maybe other models, or the silicone mouthpiece, you have to put between your lips and suck on. While the straw and silicone mouthpiece models allow you to suck water without tilting the bottle up, I dislike having to suck my water, hold the silicone mouthpiece between my lips and hate the loud, very annoying seagull noise the vent makes when you drink from the straw type models. I have no problem tilting the bottle up to drink from, like I would do with any other bottle and the straw makes it impossible to get a small amount of water at the bottom of the bottles, without unscrewing and removing the cap. The noisy vents also make those models unusable in a library, theater or other quiet place where there are other people, without unscrewing the cap and drinking directly from the stainless steel container. The only downside of all Contigo metal water bottles is that the stainless steel is fairly thin. This reduces weight which is important, but it also results in the bottom of the products being easily dented, usually on the first drop. This for me is a reasonable tradeoff, but I do have a few older model bottles that are a bit wobbly now and show their battle scars fairly prominently.

Very good water retention never leaks. The AUTOSEAL cap is my favorite from the contigo brand. Keeps ice all day, it has very good temperature retention. This water bottle is definitely worth the price. Washing is relatively easy new features in the cap make it so much easier to clean no foul smells. Only down side is the paint does fall off in certain color ways. (User error I have dropped it a couple of times.)
