if you use a bottle warmer

What brand do you use? Are you happy with it?

Re: if you use a bottle warmer

  • I have a Munchkin one. I don't love it or hate it. It seems to take longer than I would like it to, but it gets the job done.

  • Dr. Browns- I go out of my way to not learn how to use it, but DH does- seems like a PITA- he's always watching the time, filling up the reservoir....I'm sure this is just me being lazy/ignorant, but whatever.

  • We use Dr. Brown's too, and we like it.

  • We have the First Years Day and Night one (got it at a consignment sale). I love it but I've never used anything else so can't compare it against anything else. If I bought another one I'd go with one that was just a warmer and didn't have the place to chill the bottles too. I worry that it's not keeping them cold enough so I never use it. (It's never given me an idication that it's not keeping them cold enough it's just my paranoia).

  • I have the Avent one, and I like it quite a bit.  My MIL has the Munchin one at her house, and I don't like it as much.

  • I have a Munchkin one that you have to refill every time and it's fine but the hot plate thing inside makes the bottom of the tray messy.  I don't like that.  We also have a First Years automatic one that we only have to refill every day or so.  I like that one much better but it's also more expensive.  We use the First Years one downstairs for most of the bottles and keep the munchkin one in our room for night bottles.

  • We bought the Tommee Tippee warmer simply because we use those bottles and the warmer is wide enough to fit the bottles.  It is much better than using a hot cup of water being our water temp doesn't get that hot fast.  I love it.

    Tommee Tippee is the brand that I have and I love it.  I don't make bottles often though because I BF so I fill it every time because there is no point in leaving water in it.  But if a bottle is put in before I change DS it is ready just about the same time that I am done changing him.

  • we have the $20 munchkin one. Mostly because I BF so we don't use it very often, maybe once a night when LO gets a bottle. It works fine, however sometimes I feel like it gets TOOO hot so I take it out before the timer goes off. It has been burning hot before.

  • I looked into bottle warmers but found that a clean small chinese soup container and really hot water does the same job in the same amount of time as most warmers.  We use the Tommee Tippee bottles so regular mugs do not work as well.
