I Needed to Microwave My Water To Get The "Feel" Warm Enough To Provide Comfort
We've got plenty of heating pads, but I think a hot-water-bottle has its place in a home.<br />I was attracted to the pretty cover and it is pretty and soft.  Fits the bottle well, has a snapped section to hold it in place near the neck.<br />Basic red hot water bottle with screw cap.  (I shook it full of water upside down... squeezed it... no leaking)<br /><br />I suspect, also because of the pretty cover, the hot tap water I used did not provide the kind of "warmth" I was seeking.  Next, I will microwave the water and I suspect, that will be sufficient to really warm it to "feels good soothing".<br /><br />While I am happy to have a working hot-water-bottle for home, it won't be my first choice above one of our heating pads (unless the power goes out).  Once filled with water, it is heavy - doesn't lay flat and using it on my my belly felt heavy and I didn't get as good coverage as the heating pad.<br /><br />IF you're in the market for one, I DO recommend this one.
