Day Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 After an awesome purchase today I felt inspired to create this new thread, rather than just having the thread about this amazing product I'm about to tell you about why not have one where people can post up awesome things they have bought. Great idea? I know, I'm full of them. Gadgets, food, drinks, clothes, games, train sets, anything... I shall kick things off with this stainless steel water bottle, I love drinking water but in this weather it goes warm and manky pretty quickly, ice melts within 5 mins and pretty much tastes ****. Well I bought this Eco Vessell, it's £20 which is expensive but it's bloody great. Mr Postman delivered it around 12.30pm, I filled it up straight away with a 5 or 6 ice cubes and water from the Brita jug in the fridge. It's now 3.40pm and the ice is still in there and the water lovely and cold! I love it, I'm now off to bin all these crappy plastic sports bottles "http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31E6YfEu6%2BL._SX342_" alt="31E6YfEu6%2BL._SX342_">http://www.amazon.co.uk/Eco-Vessel-Boulder-Insulated-Stainless/dp/B005EGY4WU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1374071800&sr=8-1&keywords=eco+vessel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abertawe_ram Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Stainless steel bottles are bloody brilliant. I used to hate the rancid plastic taste you get with a plastic water bottle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Hindge Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 £20??? Just started bike riding to lose some pounds and this would be ideal unfortunately I just cant spend £20 on a water bottle, do they do second hand ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I looked around for cheaper as it is a crazy price but they were all novelty things with Micky Mouse print on or crap reviews, all the good reviews came back to this one. Soon forget how much it cost in a few weeks, just hide the bank statements from the missus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abertawe_ram Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I was lucky that my American mate decided not to take his back to the states with him and so I got it free. Have a gander on ebay, etc and you'll probably find cheaper but no guarantee they'll be the best qualityhttp://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/390574931392?var=gv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&_lwgsi=y&cbt=y&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tibbs Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I find that I drink water pretty quick from my water bottle at work, wouldn't see the benefits despite water being twice as good cold with ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'm too lazy to keep going to refill so I like big bottles, drank that slower than usual today just to see how long it would stay cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyram Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 £20? I"ll stick with pouring a glassful from the tap when I need one, that's a bit much for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 They are smaller with single insulation, mines 750ml with triple insulation. Small ones are called Bold, the bigger ones Boulder.

eddie Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 So let's get this straight - if you put hot things in, they will stay hot, and if you put cold things in, they will stay cold, right? How does it know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 We call them flasks, Wilkos sell stainless ones for £8 Mind you, it ain't got a fancy name, Mug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrivateDerby Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Yes but they're not triple insulation are they! Quad would be sooo much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Yes but they're not triple insulation are they! Quad would be sooo much better. In two weeks, ice cubes will be backin the freezer for another 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
