We're currently using Gerber plastic bottles, but due to some massive leaking, I'm thinking of switching. What bottle are you using and how do you like them?
We finally settled on Nuk after trying almost everything! Cheap, good venting, easy latch, and they are the only ones that didn't give DS major gas (including Dr. Brown's).
We used the Playtex drop-ins for a couple days. Then settled on using Dr. Browns. Unfortunately DS is still gassy. We're contemplating experimenting with more.
We are currently using the Playtex Drop-ins (we have 4oz and 8oz ones). I like them and we have not had any issues with leaking or nipple confusion. I also have some of the Dr Brown's to use when she is a little older. She only gets (on average) 1 bottle per day of formula and the rest of her feedings are at the breast. My Dr Brown's bottles are 8 oz and when she's only eating 2 oz of formula, it's kind of a waste. Both my niece and nephew used the Brown's bottles and had great results.
Tomme Tippee and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them-- I am an ebf, but I started pumping due to my LO being an insanely lazy nurser-- she takes at least and hour to an hour and half to nurse and I just felt like I was going to lose my mind... or a boob. The tommee tippe bottles have been fabulous!
It's what the lactation consultant recommended...she said it most resembles feeding at the breast because it requires suction and compression to get the milk out.
Was using playtex drop ins, and I thought I liked them but they were making DS very gassy, so now we use Dr. Brown's and I LOVE them....I really have no idea why, but I know I like them a lot more LOL!

We tried the drop-ins and Born Free, but settled on Dr. Brown's because they cause her to be less gassy

We've had some minor leaks, but other than that they work fine.
