Body Bottle Polka Dot

This is my 3rd YuYu hot water bottle. I’m a stickler for expiry dates on the bottle itself so replace when the time is up but would never replace with anything else. I’ve also gifted them to friends. If you experience period pains (mine are horrendous), endometriosis etc. it’s the ideal shape, size and ready does the trick. I’ve also used it across my back and shoulder. The little pocket on the front is nice if you want to add some essential oil.

This was a godsend when I pulled a muscle in my back! It’s long enough to tie around the waist. I also found it useful for work. Stayed warm for a good 3-4 hours.

Everything about this is excellent with one exception, that being the flimsy ribbon used for "hanging it on your body".It's Soooo uncomfortable especially with the weight of the water inside the bottle.This feels like a real last minute addition and in my opinion it spoils an otherwise quality product.Some might say "Just remove it", well here's the issue, this long as heck and uncomfortable ribbon is also used as the drawstring to close the cover.That's why it lost a star.For an idea of length, I'm 6ft tall and it reaches from the top of my shoulder to just below the waist.___________An addendum after around a minus that it leaks at the top. The problem being there is no gasket around the stopper. When it's hot if expands and not an issue, but when it cools and contracts, this is where the problem arises

This product is great. The hot water bottle seems to be good quality, as is the cover. I am a size 10 and it ties nicely around my waist and stays hot for hours. Alternatively it’s a great length to lay flat in bed. The cover material is nice. I’m glad I paid a little more for a good brand.

As the title states, I truly believe the YuYu hot water bottles are by far the nicest and really well produced hot water bottles you can buy. (After all they are the original long hot water bottle makers - all other makes you see are basically copies).Now I want to make this clear that my review is completely honest and is no way influenced by YuYu or anyone else.So whether you choose the body bottle, kids styles or the standard YuYu bottle, the quality is very good - I know I now own 5 of these for not just myself but also for my wife and kids. (2 are for me lol)Now the bottle itself is a really well made rubber that has nodules covering the surface of the bottle which help disperse the heat nicely (it's not just a plain flat surface), and the bottle top is now firmer and thicker so minimising the risk of snapping if it becomes tight due to over tightening, etc. (like when you let the bottle go cold and it is difficult to open due to suction caused by air trapped inside).Now the covers themselves are well made too with fabrics being comfortable and soft, and for the body bottle the strap it is long enough for all sizes of people, and allows you to use it not just around your waist, but also on you back,etc.After trying out many other makes which let you down due to low quality and cheaper fabrics, which basically only last you one winter, these YuYu bottles are made to last you over and over.I actually suffer from rheumatoid arthritis and using these bottles help relieve my pains very well when I need it, so it's good for many reasons. Even my kids use them to warm up their beds and then snuggle up with them at bedtime.My first YuYu bottle is now 4 years old and is still as good as the day I got it. I'm just happy the quality is just as good if not better, and that the extra money this costs over other cheap knock off brands is more than justifiable. You can even by spare covers and extras directly from YuYu so you know they are here for the long run.Please don't be persuaded otherwise as you definately get what you pay for and these are well worth your money.I doubt you would be disappointed.Hope that helps, and stay warm :D

stays warm for a long time helps with pains and aches.

Bought for my mum, who says it is excellent for her shoulders. Soft, lovely feel and appearance. Arrived very quickly.

The only thing I wasn’t pleased about was the insulating piece on the inside doesn’t cover the whole bottle, it only goes about a third of the way down. I thought this was strange as it’s my second bottle and the first one was fully lined with insulation.
