Do any of you have this water bottle from Wilko?

I'm looking for one that's inexpensive and doesn't leak. Does anyone have it & could tell me whether they've experienced leaking from it? It needs to go in a backpack with paperwork I'd rather not risk being spoiled.

Tia :)

I have one of these... www.wilko.com/en-uk/wilko-800ml-clear-water-bottle/p/0466008 purchased before Christmas. Used every day. No leaks.

Yes we’ve got a few of them. One leaked a bit but the rubber seal on the lid just needed pushing back into place. No issues since

This is a great water bottle. They always seem to have them n TKmaxx.

@Ahardknocklife I had a quick look at those when I was in town yesterday too!

@MrsKrabbapple that's a bit more than I wanted to pay really. I need to pick up some new work clothes as well as bits for residential with my Guides too.

Both my children have these as school water bottles so they've taken a few knocks. They've never leaked and I'm really pleased with them.

I have the flamingo one and I’ve not had any leakage from it. DD has the blue one and she is renowned for breaking/dropping bottles but this one has survived so far! Also keeps the water really cold all day. Also keep warm but I’ve havnt tried that

I've had an Aladdin aveo bottle for over five years. It's really sturdy, easy to clean and has never leaked. Slightly more expensive than the wilkos one, but worth it in the long run.

ChandelierSail · 23/04/2019 22:11

My DD has one for school. It's never leaked.

lucysmam · 23/04/2019 22:12

Ooh flamingoes sounds fun BrieAndChilli, I didn't see those on there though.

It's good to see no-one's had any issues (so far!), I'll probably pick one up in town tomorrow unless I come across a patterned one for about the same price.

My daughter has the one that you linked to, doesn't leak, but has gone a slightly dirty colour that I can't wash off!

I have one of these - www.tkmaxx.com/home/kitchen+dining/drinkware/water-bottles-flasks+travel-mugs/pink-feather-drink-container-500ml/p/85491242 £7.99 in TK Maxx and I love it! Absolutely the best gift that I received at Christmas!

lucysmam · 23/04/2019 22:56

That's pretty Angel. We'll walk through TK Maxx and see what they have on our way to Home Bargains.

I should have said, the contigo one won't cost that in TKmaxx. Home of the bargain.

Alabasterangel6 · 23/04/2019 23:01

Yes I do. The blue one. It’s good. It keeps chilled water very very cold for 8+ Hours. Every bit as good as my chilly bottle.

newtlover · 23/04/2019 23:08

yes I've got one and it hasn't leaked although I suppose I wouldn't put it with very precious documents without further testing! At that price I think it's worth buying and conducting your own rigourous tests

DontCallMeShitley · 23/04/2019 23:17

I have one like this, but an older design. I am very pleased with it.

@MrsKrabbapple thanks for coming back - we'll walk through TK Maxx and see what they have before I buy anything :)

newtlover I'll send it to school with my 9yo for a few days, if I buy that one. She's good at breaking water bottles/having leaks!
