Frequently Asked Questions

• Fridgy water bottles are known for their superior build quality. They are made from kitchen grade 18/8 stainless steel, which is highly durable, rust resistant, and resistant to punctures or dents. Fridgy uses a thick, robust body that can withstand more wear and tear. Our powder coat is food grade quality powder that is of the highest quality, designed to be resistant to fading and pealing even after prolonged exposure to high temperatures like those experienced in dishwashers.

• Cheaper options often use lower-grade stainless steel or thinner materials, making them more prone to dents, scratches, and rust over time. Their powdercoat is also often poor quality and prone to fading and peeling

• Fridgy bottles feature double-walled vacuum insulation with copper dipping that keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours or hot for 12 hours. The insulation is designed to minimize heat transfer, even in extreme conditions. This is also enhanced as all our bottles are copper dipped which adds as a further insulation barrier.

• Cheaper Bottles: While many cheaper bottles also use vacuum insulation, the quality and efficiency is often lower. They often will not retain temperatures as long as Fridgy bottles, and the insulation may degrade faster with time and use.

At Fridgy, we rigorously test our products under real-world conditions — including through extensive dishwasher testing — to ensure they perform at the highest standard. While we only use the highest quality dishwasher proof powder coat on our tumblers and bottles and they have always passed this extensive testing we still recommend hand washing to maintain the new look finish and extend the life of your product.

• Fridgy bottles come with well-engineered lids that are leak-proof, durable, and easy to clean. The lids are designed for easy cleaning and offer reliable performance over time, ensuring no spills during transport. They are also designed to withstand most drops, even when the bottles are full so they are perfect for little humans that may have trouble holding onto their bottles all the time.

• Cheaper Bottles may bottles may lack the same advanced lid designs, and the sealing mechanism might not be as reliable. This can lead to leaks over time or difficulty in keeping the lid clean.

• Due to the heavy-duty construction, Fridgy bottles can be slightly heavier compared to cheaper options as our stainless steel walls can be up to 50 percent thicker than cheaper bottles. This extra weight contributes to the durability of our products.

• Typically, cheaper bottles are lighter because they use thinner materials. This may be convenient for some, but it often comes at the cost of durability and insulation performance.
  

• Fridgy bottles have added features like our rugged looking base, ergonomic designs which includes our IP protected grip design, or more recently new innovations like our Cruise range which are bottles designed to fit in most standard car holders.
