![]() | A trip (or a work day in my case) is always better with a good cup of coffee every now and then. This is a "Retki" bottle of 0.3 litres, for a couple of cups of liquid. |
![]() | The bottle itself probably works ok, but there is a problem when bringing the bottle into use: the manufacturer chooses to place the paper slip containing the warranty details and operating instructions inside the bottle reservoir itself, and the slip cannot be easily pulled out. |
![]() | Various methods were tried, from left to right in picture: * scissors (1) * clothespin (2) * tweezers (3) * whisk blade (4) * wire (5) * pliers (6) * even water was considered (filling the bottle with water obviously would dissolve the paper). The above tools, maybe with the exception of pliers, are those normally at hand in a kitchen, where you'd open the product package. |
![]() | Finally the paper was extracted with the aid of pliers; however, the paper would not come out in whole. |
![]() | In fact I was glad that the operating instructions did not give guidance of how to get the paper out .. |
No picture here | The next day my wife happened to wind the nozzle out of the bottle, and the hole became much smaller. This greatly helps in pulling the paper out. But I maintain that many if not most of the consumers don't see this option. |
