3. LARQ self-cleaning bottle!

I bought one of these for my hubby a couple of years ago and he absolutely LOVES it.

As a guy who drinks copious amounts of water (since he’s always in the gym), his water bottle is basically attached to his hip 24/7. This self cleaning bottle has literally been life-changing for him, and he takes it everywhere with him – on holiday, to work, even around the house!

Simply push a button on the cap and within 2 minutes the bottle cleans itself using hospital-grade UV technology, the same tech used to sterilise tools in surgical settings. It can also purify water the same way – according to LARQ, one zap of the UV treatment in the bottle is the equivalent to boiling water for 20 minutes.
