As a sleep-deprived mom to a colicky baby, these bottles were my accidental superhero discovery. The first time I used the 5oz bottle with the slow-flow nipple, I actually cried when my daughter drank without the usual post-feeding scream fest. That vented wand thing? Magic.
The breast-like nipple is SO different from others we've tried - it's squishy like real skin, not that weird rubbery texture that makes babies gag. My little one does this cute 'flutter suck' with it that she only does during breastfeeding. Though fair warning: the medium flow nipple made her dribble like a leaky faucet until she got older.
Cleaning is stupid easy - just pop all parts in their self-sterilizer (game changer at 3AM) and that included brush gets into every nook. Though PSA: those travel lids? Absolute liars. They pop off if you so much as breathe on them wrong. I use masking tape when out.
We started with the small bottles at newborn stage and now at 6 months, the 9oz ones are perfect for bigger feeds. The handles make her giggle when she grabs them herself. Only con? They're chubby bottles - won't fit in some diaper bag pockets.
After trying 4 expensive brands, these are the only ones where my baby doesn't arch her back crying from gas bubbles. Worth every penny just for the extra 20 minutes of peace after feeds.
