I washed out a large mustard bottle that has a twist top and small hole in it. Works great as the tip goes right down in the iron. I also use tap water as that is what my iron calls for. Some require distilled water and some don't. As for using bottled water, I had thought about that until I read where this bottled water is out of faucets just like you turn on your tap. I only use bottled water for convenience when I need it to go, why pay the high price when it is cheaper right out of your faucet. Some say spring water, but ask them what spring they get it from and how they purify it etc., and you get very evasive answers if you get any answer. There have been many articles on bottled water and how it is not all it is put out to be!

Years ago my Mom would put clothes she had sprinkled in the frig to keep them from molding and I loved ironing on them when we took them out, seemed like they ironed more easily and much crisper looking. Don't miss all the ironing days though for sure.
