you go with the one that works best for you and your baby.  When we were breastfeeding, the Avent Naturals were good, but he burped a lot.  When we moved to formula, we tried the Playtex VentAire and the Dr Browns.  My son does best with the Dr Brown bottles.  Less gassy, and less messy for him.  I would suggest you do what we did, and buy one of a couple of different bottles that you like the look of (or have good ratings on Amazon), and see which one you and your little one prefer.

I have glass bottles for my DD. I am EBF but some days I have pumped so my DH can feed our DD. Or if I'm going to be away from DD for a period of time.
I chose the glass bottles since we prefer them. I also use Dr. Brown nipple with the glass bottles.
(the bottles are not dr.browns) mind you my DD hasn't had any issues with the gasses or reflux yet. But then again we rarely have to use the bottles right now.

One advice I would have is not to buy so many bottles of one kind. Your baby may not like a specific brand or so.

I must have a bottle and nipple for every occasion. The best answer is: it's whatever your child will take.

I have 2 Dr. Brown's with 2 different nipples and a ton of different Avent bottles with no. 1 and 2 Natural and Classic nipples.

The most success I've had was with an Avent with a Classic no. 1 to reduce gas build up. However, I think the formula and how you prep before and after feeding addresses about 98% of the issues you'll have with feeding.

My son started on breast milk and some Standard 1 formula for the first 3-4 weeks, then a cramping sensitive formula for 6 weeks, but then he started screaming a lot during feedings. Now he's been on a hypoallegenic forumula for the past 2 weeks, and he's so calm during and after feedings, it's scary. He may have developed sensitivity to the previous formulas.

I use Avent naturals and love them. We never had nipple confusion and we introduced the bottle at 2 weeks

I actually recommend waiting until lo is here. We bought dr brown bottles in advance but our child had to have orthopedic nipples because regular ones were too big for her. She uses dd brown now but for the first month she couldn't. You could save money by waiting to see what he or she needs.

I have avent...lo loves them I bought the tommy tippee on a recommendation and I will return them because they are really wide and take up more room in the fridge and diaper bag.
