Hugo Frosch Classic 1.8 L Hot Water Bottle with Fleece Cover vs Fashy Hot Water Bottle with Fleece Cover 2.0 L
Which should you buy? Our verdict on both, pulled from our full The Best Hot Water Bottles: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) comparison.
Hugo Frosch states the standard, the bottle material, the cover care and the filling advice on one product page. Fashy is a close second on capacity and testing claims, but its product page leaves the standard for you to check on the bottle.
Hugo Frosch Classic 1.8 L Hot Water Bottle with Fleece Cover
Buy itThe only product here whose own page names BS 1970:2012, the bottle material and the cover care together.
- The maker page states the bottle meets British Standard BS 1970:2012, tested and monitored by independent accredited laboratories.
- The fleece cover is 100% polyester, removable and washable at 30 degrees C.
- It has an XL handle tab to make filling safer and a clear fill limit of two thirds.
- At about 1.8 litres it is slightly smaller than the 2.0 L rivals.
- The page says it is not suitable for children and gives different water limits for under-3s, so it is not a child's bottle.

- The cover is 100% polyester with no further detail given on this page.
