I have it! One of the best purchases I have ever made! She is considerably less gassy now since the pitcher gets rid of bubbles in the bottle almsot completely. And then if put into a Dr.Browns bottle, its like magic!! Also makes my day much easier having all the formula pre mixed. Highly recommend it!

How are you heating the bottles, if at all?
Most the time I just throw it in the microwave and then mix it real well afterwards to get rid of hotspots. But if I have a little bit of time I use the Dr.Brows bottle warmer I have, it just takes longer to heat up
I have one and loved. I used it with DS #1 and it was great. I tried mixing the formula in his bottles and I didn't like how he would get gassy and not feel good afterwards. The pitcher made him feel so much better. Plus I like how I could mix a days worth of formula and just pour it whenever he needed to eat.

How long do you microwave for, roughly? DD is currently in the 4 oz Dr. Brown's bottles.

With 4 ounces I put it in for 40 seconds. After 20 seconds I pull it out and swirl it to mix it up and then throw it in for the rest of the time. I only put it in that long if its been sitting in the fridge and is ice cold. If I just mixed it and pour a bottle before putting it in the fridge, I throw it in for 25-30 seconds. I test with a (clean) finger throughout just to make sure its the right temp
