*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
The humble hot water bottle is enjoying a spectacular comeback, as more and more people are looking for more environmentally friendly and cost-effective ways to stay warm during the colder months. With so many new hot water bottle products on the market, deciding which product is right for you can be a bit overwhelming. Here are some features and benefits of both traditional hot water bottles and newer microwave bottles to help you decide which may be right for you.
Traditional hot water bottles are tested and true. Since their introduction on the market in 1903, rubber hot water bottles have been used by individuals, hospitals, and other organizations to keep people comfortable and warm during cold nights. Traditional hot water bottles are simple to use and don�t require any special equipment. Filled with hot water and sealed shut, they stay warm for a long time. Newer models come in a variety of designs, prints, and colors. Novelty covers are also available in hundreds of designs, and can be changed to suit the season or the user.
Traditional hot water bottles are perfect for someone looking for the most environmentally friendly and cost-effective product. Unlike microwave bottles, hot water bottles only need hot water to be effective. This also makes them ideal for someone who needs a hot water bottle for camping or other outdoor activity where electricity may not be available.
The disadvantage to these types of bottles is that they are prone to cracking over time, and must be inspected regularly to ensure the rubber is not breaking down. The must be drained, dried, and stored properly to maintain effectiveness. Additionally, hot water bottles are not built to withstand strong pressure, and may leak or explode if squeezed too tightly. For this reason, they cannot be left in bed while a person sleeps, and must be removed. This can limit their effectiveness by requiring the removal of the hot water bottle before it has cooled completely.
Microwave bottles are similar in shape to hot water bottles, but work much differently. Instead of needing to be filled with water, microwave bottles have a core that heats up in the microwave, providing warmth for hours after heating. Microwave bottles are covered in a soft plush fabric, and are available in a variety of colors and fabrics. Unlike hot water bottles, the covers are not removable and cannot be changed.
The advantage of microwave water bottles is that they are not prone to leaks or explosions from undue pressure and can stay in bed overnight, allowing the user to enjoy the maximum benefit of the product. This also makes the product safer for use with children, who are not always as careful as adults. Microwave bottles can be cleaned with a damp cloth to keep them free from dirt and germs, and don�t suffer from the same tendency to crack or dry out as regular hot water bottles do.
The disadvantage to these types of bottles is that they are not suitable for use outside of the home or hotel due to the need for access to a microwave. Campers, outdoorsmen, or even someone looking to take a hot water bottle to an outdoor sporting event may prefer the convenience of a traditional hot water bottle that can be filled and used almost anywhere hot water can be found.
