Hotties Microhottie Microwavable Hot Water Bottle Purple Polyester Fleece

Safer than a water bottle you have to fill with hot water, also keeps warm longer.I would recommend this product.

Nice and warm

Not cheap but a good way to get warmth into aching muscles without the risk of leaking as with a hot water bottle. Easy to warm up in the microwave but take heed of the warning not to leave it in too long. I tried putting in for another minute and it started to swell so switched off immediately! I bought this to go with the same product which I bought years ago. I am now able to apply heat simultaneously to both legs and obtain pain relief.

Isn't as hot as a rubber bottle filled with boiling water. 3 mins in a microwave and you're good to go.

I have had 3 of these but not all with the same cover. The first one did leak but this was after a few years of use and I noticed it straight away as I always check them before putting them into bed and the liquid was visible on the cover of the hottie straight away. I lost the second one and this purple one seems fine so far after a couple of months of use. I have used the hotties for both kids to take the chill off their beds and usually leave it in with them so do not heat them to a point where they are very hot. But the hotties can get very hot if you heat them for the maximum time so be careful! I am very cautious with them when they are really hot and would never leave them with the kids. If you heat them gradually and make sure you turn them over I have never had a problem getting them to a temperature I'm happy with. The only negatives I have found is that they can heat a little unevenly and also that the cover has a large opening so there is nothing to stop little hands and feet from touching the pad inside if they mess about with it. I did sew up the opening on one which solved this problem (you can put the cover in the microwave too so it doesn't need to come off).

This product works well. I had replaced my microwave hot water bottle recently but the one I chose was like a brick in the bed. This product warms up in a microwave in about 90 seconds and stays warm overnight - brilliant - the brick is history!

Not happy at all with this item. It just does not seem to provide sufficient warmth through the fleece cover

Much smaller than a conventional hot water bottle, and it can’t be heated to a really high temperature. But preparing it is considerably less fussy! It’s ok for what it is, but not a patch on the old fashioned ones you fill each night. I also find it cools down pretty quickly.
