As a mom who's tried countless bottles, the Tommee Tippee Advanced Anti-Colic set truly stands out. The breast-like nipples are SO soft – my picky eater who refused other brands latched on immediately. No more wrestling matches at feeding time!
The anti-colic vent system is magic. My little one used to arch his back and scream after feeds, but now? Just happy milk drunk smiles. I actually timed it – gas symptoms reduced by about 70% after switching.
Cleaning is stupid easy compared to other anti-colic bottles I've tried (looking at you, Dr. Brown's). Only three main parts per bottle, and that included brush scrubs hard-to-reach spots perfectly. Pro tip: The self-sterilizing feature is legit – microwave for 3 mins while prepping diapers.
Now the not-so-great: Those travel lids? Absolute joke. They pop off if you breathe near them. I ended up buying separate sealing discs for daycare runs. Also, the medium flow might be too fast for newborns – wish they included slow flow nipples in the set.
Despite flaws, this kit gets 4.5/5 from me. The way it grows with baby (switching from 5oz to 9oz bottles) saved us so much money, and the included handles helped when my LO started self-feeding at 6 months. Game changer for combo-feeding families!
