MY THOUGHTS:
I suffer from seasonal allergies, but even when those are not bothering me I often feel congested. My husband always seems to have some kind of nasal-thing going on. Knowing Waterpik for its great reputation it was great to be able to check out two of their new products: Squeeze Bottle and Neti Bottle.
Squeeze Bottle
Retail: $14.99
Easy Squeeze for sinus health.
Control the water flow (and cleansing power) with just a squeeze of the Waterpik® SinuSense™ Squeeze Bottle. Ergonomic and high performing, you’ll get a complete cleanse and customized control with one, easy squeeze. Safe for daily use, ages 4 and up.
Neti Bottle
Retail: $14.99
Easy on your nose, easy to hold, easy to use.
Experience the gentlest sinus cleansing available with the Waterpik® SinuSense™ Neti Bottle. The traditional neti pot gets a contemporary, sleek design and comfort grip for a soothing, gravity-fed sinus wash. And with the One-Touch FlowControl™ Valve, you control the gravity-fed water flow as fast or slow as you want. Safe for daily use, ages 4 and up.
Features of Both:
- Reduces Risk of Cold and Allergy
- Automatically expands to fit nostril
- One-way FlowControl Valve (prevents backflow to maintain solution purity)
- Dishwasher and microwave safe (BPA-free too)
- 60 Soothing Saline Easy-Pour Packs
Overall, I found both products to be similar and both effective. They both filter water up one nostril and out the other which is not as weird as it sounds, or maybe it is. Either way it works and really leaves my nose feeling clean and refreshed. What I like about them both being a “Bottle” is that it allows me to control how much and how fast the water goes into my nostrils. You squeeze and tilt the bottle or neti-pot so you can control where and how fast the water goes. I think these would be especially great for my sons in a few years, but I can’t see them letting me do it now to them. I do think though that it can be gentle enough to help out kids nostrils too though. I also want to add that I hate putting any sprays in my nose or even water, but once you get over the initial squirt, it is really not so bad!

Neti Pot solution says
Isn’t it just better to prepare saline solution in home.
Glenda says
I suffer from allergies and love my Neti pot (I got a CVS brand one). It is ESPECIALLY wonderful during cold season. Using it the first few times is, well, unsettling. The key is to be sure the water isn’t too warm OR too cold.

I just can’t do it. I hate nasal sprays. I can’t!!
