Contigo Ashland Water Bottle, 24 oz, Aster

The Contigo Ashland Water Bottle (24 oz, Azalea) is perfect for the gym! It’s incredibly durable—I’ve dropped it multiple times, and it still looks and works like new. The spout makes it super easy to drink from, and the design is convenient to carry around.The only small downside is that when the handle is open, it can be a bit tricky to drink, but it’s not a big deal. This bottle is reliable and well-designed, earning a full 5 stars from me!

If you fly with this bottle, do not fill it full as the product will pressurize and leak. I have found that 3/4 full works wonderful on a plane

Works great. Doesn't fit into most car cup holders, but holds a lot of water for my kids sports games

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.)

this bottle so cheap but has good quality. I believe in the brand, contigo.the shape is stylishThe opening is easy and strong enough, haven't leaked at all.But sometimes if the lid is too tight, there is noise when you suck the straw.Also, light, that's why I lost it last week...

Prevents accidental spills. Has a lock mechanism. Large size. I bought this to replace one that cracked, and spilled over my bag. Great product.

Great water bottle for kids! My son uses it every day for school. It has a lock button which is great to avoid leaks . It is also reasonably priced and comes in a variety of colors so we get a new one every few months ! Definitely recommend !

Serviceable, but definitely a downgrade from the Ashland 1.0, for a few reasons:- No more carabiner clip 😔 – It was so handy for clipping to a backpack strap while on the move!- New handle swings too far – The range of movement for the hinged handle is a bizarre choice; it can very easily be moved to block the drinking spot, which is... not ideal.- Straw loses suction when drinking at an angle – Drinking at a ~30° was easy with the old design, but with this one, the straw seems to lose suction when drinking at anything other than perfectly upright. This is probably due to the fact that the straw is now TWO pieces of flexible plastic (that are only connected by fit!), rather than the old single-piece, solid plastic straw. Another odd design choice...Are there improvements? yes:- better open button- better lock buttonBut that's it. Overall, I'm bummed sad that Contigo discontinued the 1.0, whose only real drawback was a fragile handle.
