Recs for one-handed stainless steel water bottle with straw?

May 22, 2023 7:39 PM

I have a Contigo Autoseal stainless steel bottle I like because I can use it one-handed, but it doesn't have a straw, which would be so convenient. I only drink water with fresh-squeezed lemon in it, so I don't care about flavors transferring. I do like my water to keep cool. Size-wise, 20 oz or a little over is my sweet spot.

Best answer: I'd try Contigo's Ashland Chill with the AutoSprout, supposed to pop up the sprout at push of a button.

Best answer: Owala's got a combination straw/sip thing that works well one-handed and seems very good at keeping water cold. For me the major tradeoff is that a Contigo Autoseal or Camelbak Eddy won't spill if you knock it over.

Best answer: ThermoFlask has dual-lid models in both 18oz and 24oz.

We have the 24oz spout lid and 16oz straw lid ones Costco carries—the straw is easy to use one-handed, zero leaking when it’s closed, and they hold temperature very well.

Response by poster: You’ve given me great options, thank you! The ThrmoFlask ones look super solid, the Owala is so fun, but the Contigo looks just like mine so I’m probably going to go with that one. I’ll try to find them all in person just to see which feels best in my hand.
