Would rate it zero if I could. Migraine material

published

After suffering terrible headaches at work and thinking it must be from dehydration, I upped my water intake only for them to become absolutely unbearable. After eliminating every other factor that could be causing it, I realised it was Coles bottled water causing them. To test the theory I drank some and waited - Lo and behold, shortly after a migraine headache set in. Not sure what is going on within the last few months - but lots of people seem to be falling really ill after drinking this water.

It was horrid.

published

The water I bought from Coles Supermarket was horrid. It had a funny taste to it and gave me a headache that I would not even beg upon my worst enemy and that's saying a lot. Please don't buy this water unless you want a headache because if you do your dumber then me and that's also saying ALOT.

Love this water

published

I love this product it’s so affordable and tastes great. Fantastic value for money. Highly recommend this in your groceries



2.5/10

published

Being around 80% water myself I found this didn't suit my tried and tested palette 1.5/10. Bottle feel was disappointing 2/10 for crunch, felt flimsy under my 8 remaining fingers, tainted my tap water and has put me off water indefinitely. Overall would give it a 2.5 as the bottle cap saved it somewhat.

Made Me Sick!

published

Once I drank some of this water and the next day I started to get headaches and the day after I started vomiting. This water needs to be banned because it's very bad for your health. Do not buy!!!

Not good

published

I usually buy frantelle bottled water but were away for sport and stopped in at coles to get water for the weekend tournament. The coles water made us very ill with stomach cramps, vomiting and headaches. Would not recommend.

Water quality

published

I usually buy Woolworths or Costco water and have been had nausea, continual headaches, vertigo and stomach cramps - both the Woolworths and Costco water says it is sourced from Australian springs. I have had MRI scans and blood tests which haven't shown anything wrong. I am now going to stop drinking bottled water which I only drink because we are on tank water.

Don't Buy It

published

Literally within minutes of drinking i started feeling nauseous and gassy. This water has been fine up until recently. Never drinking it again, just swapped to tap water and feel better already.

Thanks to all these reviews I know what was making me sick

published

We came away on holiday and bought these to have in the fridge, after 24 hours I have severe stomach cramps and diarrhoea and nausea. Only yesterday did I remember seeing something about the water. Stopped drinking it and all of a sudden the symptoms have stopped.

Headaches & Nausea!

published

I only just bought a 24pk yesterday. I drink a lot of water, so I might of consumed about 10 bottles in 24hrs. I have woken up today with a huge headache & an upset stomach. This headache feels odd. I go to grab and sip slower than usual because I’m feeling ill, then I start to notice the aftertaste... it taste like mercury or something is in the water! I realised it was the COLES water that was making me sick!! after a few hours of drinking filtered tap water, I feel a bit better.

They really need to take it off their shelves forever.

Good for the price

published

I buy coles spring water the 24 pack every week i go shopping as its very hand to have im the fridge or freezer. The taste is great and better then tap water plus the bottle can squash very small when empty to fit into the recycling bin. It is also very cheap compared to other brands and is often ok special.

Pounding headaches

published

I'm a regular buyer of wangaratta Cole's natural spring water, but this last pack I purchased on Tuesday 16th of January has been giving me terrible headaches. Though I callex Cole's on Sunday that week and I spoke to a very polite staff member in charge [name removed] and he was happy to refund me the money even though there were bottles missing and I did not keep the receipt. So I have no complaints about the customer service just an issue with the water, I'm hoping that it's just a bad batch and not something to serious. Thank YOU [name removed] you were a great help.
