A part of my life
It all started in 2014. I was a freshman in college and the guy I was seeing had the plastic cold-water-only version of this bottle. When I first saw it I was confused. I thought the button was stupid and overly complicated. Little did I know this bottle would come to be a staple in my life. On mornings when I was hungover, I would reach out and grab the nearest hydration. This trusty bottle was always there. The size of the opening allowed just the right amount of water though so I wasn't drowning but I also was getting hydrated with the speed and desperation of a hamster post-hibernation. (No, I don't actually know whether hamsters hibernate. Sorry.) Anyway, the button saved me so many times. Often when lying in bed I might drop my phone on my face. The same is true of a water bottle. If I had had just a normal, sad water bottle, I would have spilled water all over my face. This bottle, however, closes the second you release the button, protecting me from the curse of my own weak arms. It was truly a hydration miracle and I brought it with me everywhere. Flash forward to 2016, the dark times. At some point in the computer science building, I lost the bottle. Legend says if you walk the halls at night you can still hear the echos of my screams: "Where are you? I can't live without you! Somebody help me!" My boyfriend suggested that I look online and find a replacement. I scorned the idea, no water bottle could replace my water bottle. He pointed out that the bottle was actually his but I would not hear it. Eventually, when the time for mourning had passed tenfold, I decided it was time to get back in the saddle. I went online tentatively. I thought I was taking things slow, but when I saw that Contigo was no longer manufacturing this model, I was heartbroken. Still, I didn't give up. I went on eBay and was still able to find one, albeit I'm the wrong color. Nonetheless, this new bottle found a way into my heart. We spent many loving years together. Eventually, my bottle was covered in as many scratches as stickers. The plastic began to become dry and cracked. This is no fault of the manufacturer, given that I bought it secondhand and that I used it for four years diligently every day. Also I dropped it all the time. My poor bottle was becoming worse for wear. Nevertheless, no one could replace this bottle in my mind. One day, I opened an incognito tab and went online just to see what was out there. I wasn't expecting to find much, but I saw this. Contigo had begun making the same bottle, but this time thermally insulated. I stared at it for a long time. I read reviews. I put it in my cart and took it out again. Eventually, I convinced myself I would use it for tea. I told my old bottle that it was for a different purpose, that it would never be the same. Alas, I was wrong. I regret my foolish promise deeply, but I had to follow my heart. This new bottle is, in fact, superior. Not only does it keep tea hot all day, but it also keeps water cold and refreshing in the summer. It is two rolled in one, the love child of my previous bottles, and I adore it. Thank you Contigo. P.s. I couldn't fit these things into my story but it's easy to clean and the metal doesn't keep flavors in so plain water tastes good even after it was previously full of smoothie. My only complaint is that it leaks a little at the seam if you don't close it tight enough and you have a hot drink. I think this is because the steam expands the rubber seal slightly. Either way, it gets three thumbs up from me.

Great mug for on the go tea drinkers
We've had these mugs for a couple of years now - specifically since my husband spilled a cup of scalding tea down his leg at work and got some seriously nasty burns and blisters on his ankle and foot. We live in the PNW - land of cold and rain - and drink hot tea 10 months out of the year. We needed cups that 1) didn't spill 2) fit in the car 3) keep tea reasonably hot 4) are reasonably easy to drink out of and 5) can be cleaned by mere mortals, preferably in the dishwasher. We have yet to find anything better. The stainless steel seem to be the best of the lot. I will straight up tell you that I alternate between a quick rinse between uses and washing both cup and lid in the dishwasher. Yes, top rack, and I use a mild, eco detergent with a gentle, eco cycle, but that's how I do things - dishes are meant to be used, and with very few exceptions, if something can't survive a mild trip through the dishwasher, it's not long for my house. The older colored cups didn't do well in the dishwasher - the paint flaked off and they started to look ratty. But they still worked.. The stainless steel cups have worked like a champ, though, and I think the design has gotten even better in the last couple of years. We've never had a problem with the lids getting funky, but then 99.9% of the time we're drinking tea with a touch of honey - no dairy. Sometimes in the summer I'll put horrible things in there: iced coconut water with ginger or even kombucha. But even if it's sat in the back seat of the car a few too many days and developed a bit of an aroma, a trip through the dishwasher and/or a hot soapy soak usually does the trick. The large is perfect for two Harney tea sachets - lesser bags might require three. We usually steep and remove before we go, but if I'm drinking something herbal, I have screwed the lid down right over the bag string. The drinking mechanism is easy, but can take a bit of getting used to; basically it's always sealed unless you are actively pressing down the button to drink. It does require a certain amount of hand strength - it's difficult for my handicapped father, and my daughter couldn't do it till late elementary school, but she's a bit of a midge and has tiny hands. Basically, they're great. It can be hard to get good tea, so now we almost always bring our own. It doesn't matter if they get kicked over under the pew at church, dropped on the floor of the car or knocked off the table, my tea has never spilled - and believe me, my kids *excel* at knocking things over. I've even thrown one in my bike pannier and squeezed one into a bike bottle holder. Yes, tea on a bike - what else am I supposed to drink when the kids and I finish a chilly ride to the library. And oops, thanks for knocking the tea out of mom's cup holder and onto the concrete. New dent? New chip out of the plastic lid? Why would I care? My tea is hot and still in the cup :-) And in case any of you wondered, no new burns, either. Though if you get hot water from a coffee stand, please be careful removing the bags and drinking until it has a chance to cool down :-)

Best thing since sliced bread and winning the lottery!
*Sticker NOT included! No, I didn't win the lottery but I kind of did with this purchase; out of the box it looks great and is easy to hold comfortably. Super easy to clean, VERY well designed to aid in getting to the hard parts. I'm a coffee drinker so it goes with me to work at 7am, thankfully I have a cup before I leave because I can't drink from this for about two hours after filling it up. I have heard different time ranges from three hours to six hours of keeping liquid hot/warm- my personal experience is right around 4.5 to five hours depending how often I drink from it or how much is left. Leakproof you ask? YES! I have it rolling around my floorboard on the way to work, have had it drop off a table, subjected to light abuse and not ONE drop has leaked out. Oh yeah- it has a lock button on it so no matter what; if it is locked you are not opening the sipper! Works so good I bought one for my girlfriend too. NOW HERE IS THE COLD PART; she uses it for ice water and tea (If you want to steep your own tea- get the West Loop tea infuser as you won't regret it!). She puts in ice and water, locks the top and throws it in her workout bag without worrying about it leaking. And it doesn't of course. It is a conservative statement in saying it will keep liquid cold up to 7 hours but I have seen it last at the most of 13 hours with a little ice at the bottom. All in all this mug is your answer to everything you are seeking for in a travel mug that will not leak, easy to clean, comfortable to hold and drink from too. There is a slight new plastic smell out of the box- just clean it well before your first use like you should with any eating or drinking utensils and it will be gone. If you decide on this- I would say you will be 100% satisfied, if you play the lottery; I guarantee you have a 50/50% chance- buy this, you won't regret it!

First Rate Product
I bought the big one for my Grandson as a gift! I bought 3-16 oz mugs one for me in plum and then I bought 2 in a package one a champagne and the other a Mauve for the price of my one special Plum mug. I love that it has no stuff to deal with like fipping a tab open to drink and then close it, no straws to clean or leak. It's a one hand operation, pick it up and your hand is naturally over the button on the side to press which allows the flow as you drink and release and its COMPLETELY LEAK PROOF no lie. You just need to make sure you twist the cap on securely. It also has a lock button so you don't accidently bump the button and release liquid if you put it in your purse, backpack, lying in bed watching TV you won't have to worry about spilling any of it. Just a bit of soapy water and a bootle brush and a rinse and it's ready to go again. The top has the mechanics in it, but just a little push and it flips out of the way for washing too. Not recommended for the dishwasher if it has the painted exterior coating, but I wouldn't the lid as it is plastic. If you fill it with your cold drink the night before and set in the frig, the metal will get cold and keep your drink really cold and for longer. Two pieces all there is very minimalist and shaped for a solid grip. You don't have to take your eyes off the road, just pick up and drink !
