My Daughter likes to take a drink to school with her each day. She usually refilled an old 500ml pop bottle or brought a new drink from the shop each morning on the way to school. I find both ways unsatisfactory as refilling a previously used disposable pop bottle is unhygienic and buying a new bottle of pop five days a week is costly. Then she started 'borrowing' my Husbands sports bottle that he uses for the gym each morning, not a very good solution as my Husband would have to hunt the bottle down when he wanted it and my daughter would have to do the same when she wanted it. After a week of bottle hunting and borrowing my Husband had had enough and ...  Read the complete review

For a long time I would simply refill an old water/coke bottle with some juice to put into my lunchbox for work however, some of these bottles were starting to look at little worse for wear, and when I noticed TK Maxx selling these Thermos Hydro Sports Bottles for £4.99 I thought it was the right time to buy one. I actually bought my bottle in pink, because TK Maxx were only selling that colour at the time, however I do believe there are a variety of colours for this product. Thermos is a recognised name so I was confident in the effectiveness of this product. My bottle has a 450ml capacity, which is ample for my lunchbox or if you are going out for the ...  Read the complete review

Last summer, I intended to make the most of the school holidays and take my kids out as often as I could. My husband works weekends as well as weekdays so we never had the use of a car, so it is a matter of using the local amenities such as parks, paddling pools, and play areas. So this usually means a lot of walking (and thus generating a thirst), and with me being the tight fisted person that I am, I like to take food and drinks with us, to save spending money while we are out. Now I always used to go prepared for the children, but I would often forget about me, and I could be seen swigging from a child's sippy cup, just to quench my ever growing thirst without ...  Read the complete review

I must say I love the Thermos brand and own many of their products. The most recent one being this Hydro Sports Bottle. I paid 8 euro for it in Lifestyle Sports which was a bit expensice for a water bottle but when you think of the money you would spend on buying a bottle of water everyday then it really is a bargain! The bottle comes in many colours and hold 500ml of liquid. The lid is spill proof and can easily be flipped up with one hand. Essential when on the treadmill! It is made of plastic so its light and durable. I have had aliminium bottles in the past and they were constantly dented from being dropped so I like how this bottle can hold its own. ...  Read the complete review

Once upon a time we had a water machine at work which dispensed lovely cool water, but since moving offices we've lost our water machine and so I now have to take my own water (the tap water there is awful!). However, filling a bottle with water tends to mean it's warm by the time I've been at work for a short while. During the summer I resorted to freezing the bottled water just to keep me cool, but then I found it wouldn't melt as quick as I wanted to drink it. Argh! I needed a solution....... I found that solution while shopping in Tesco... The Thermos Hydro Active Sports Bottle. This isn't just any sports bottle, it's one with a "Refillable Ice ...  Read the complete review
