Well we’re well into another cold dark winter so we thought we’d delve into our website stats and see what the most popular bottles have been so far in the 2011/2012 winter. 

Vagabond bottles from feelunique.com seem to be ruling the roost! You’ve been snapping them up in your hundreds – and we can see why! Made and tested in the UK? Check. 2 year guarantee? Check. Great range of sumptuous covers? Check. We think they certainly deserve the top spot.

Another bottle that has really been popular this year is the personalised hot water bottle which is bespoke made to order by JoJo designs via notonthehighstreet.com. The bottle is made in a faux sheepskin material and features an initial of your choice in a range of fabrics. 

Personalisation has been a big trend in the last year and it looks like this is also the case with hot water bottles. 

Finally the old favourite ‘slogan’ bottles have been popular with the classic ‘grumpy and irrational’ being a firm favourite! 

We’ll keep bringing you the freshest hot water bottle designs into spring so look out for the next big thing coming soon!
