Hate the mouth feel of the 2.0, please bring back the original lid design (but easy to clean). I love my Contigo but cannot get around this new design and am going to have to get an owala :(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the 3.0 lid didn’t meet your expectations and that the new design affected comfort and seal performance. We appreciate your loyalty to Contigo over the years and your detailed input—it helps our team evaluate future improvements. If you have any additional concerns or need our assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly via Contact Us form on our website so we can address these issues.
The lid design is second to. One and unable to be replicated. It’s what makes the cup, imo. It also does a pretty good job keeping my drinks cold all day. I’ve been continuing to purchase since it was brought to market. West Loop or Courtland. Just good product
Contigo steel water bottles used to be the best you could buy. Recent purchases dent very easily and lid is very difficult to clean resulting in mold.

I have several of these water bottles. I worked HVAC with a lot of the equipment on roofs of buildings. Even with exposure to sunlight, they would keep my water cool all day, even until the next morning. Even after retiring, I still use them for my daily water consumption with no problems at all. I would heartily recommend them, especially to someone working outdoors. I live in AZ so we do get some heat during the summer.
As a breastfeeding mom this is the best water bottle I could ask for! Easy to operate one handed, keeps drinks cool all day. The loop on top makes for easy carrying when your hands are full. And last but not least it is currently toddler proof keeping my oldest from spilling it everywhere. 10/10
I absolutely love my Contigo Cortland Chill Autoseal 32oz metal water bottle. I bring it everywhere and it has facilitated me drinking my desired daily quantity of water and cold tea, improving hydration and detox. The autoseal top is truly leak proof unlike many other bottles claim. Because it is metal there is no worry about ingesting micro plastics as long as you do not use commercial tea bags. It maintains liquids very cold or hot. it is fantastic for traveling especially if you have kids, hydration, cold liquids, and non-spill. One of the best features is the one handed operation and auto shut off vice other bottles that require unscrewing of a cap. Another great feature is the ability to regulate the liquid flow unlike other bottles that allows large amount of the liquid to pour out and require the top to be screwed on again to avoid spillage. The only lack luster thing I will say is the lack of available colors in the 32oz and replacement tops. I was only able to get the 32oz in black? Really? I dropped my bottle full of water quite a few times on a hard surface and eventually water began to leak through a separation which is totally understandable. The problem is that I cannot find replacement tops to purchase. I would love to own multiple bottles one for work, and for the gym etc. but do not want to purchase a new bottle every time there is something wrong with the top. I would love to have one that is a bit shorter to fit in my bike water bottle holder. I would also love to have the 32oz in different fun colors. Lastly, a rubber bottom accessory may also be helpful to absorb some of the impact and prevent bending when bottles are dropped.
