Description
We wash and place the unsterilised bottles in the steriliser until it's full and start the process again. It's handy to have a place to put them before I start another cycle." Put the parts in a household pot and pour plenty of cold or lukewarm water into it. Never not put a cold GLASS bottle into hot water, as this could damage it. The BPA-free bottles also promise to be anti-colic and offer a ‘SkinSoftTM' teat in different flows, to help your baby accept a bottle – which can be difficult if they've been exclusively breastfed.
Some parents have said they have to clean it frequently. One BabyCentre parent said: "We have to clean it quite often, just with white vinegar on the heat plate and wipe it round, but this may be due to the water in our area." The advantage of microwave sterilisers is that they’re more capacious than travel models but smaller than electric ones, so they can be stored out of sight. The length of the cycle is almost always shorter than using an electric steriliser, too, which might come in handy with a very hungry baby. Are you using a 4-in-1 Electric steam steriliser? Fill the water reservoir with exactly 100 ml (3.5 oz.) of tap waterNot only do they make life on the go easy, they also mean you don't have to have another large appliance on your kitchen work surface, although you do need a microwave. Dr Browns every time - baby never had wind issues a friend of mine who fosters babies recommended them and we have never had an issue. We also used the Dr Browns steriliser."Tried and tested by Mumsnet user mommybear1 Our verdict Capacity: Approximately six bottles | Materials: BPA-free plastics and metal electrical components | Included: Steriliser and teat tongs – larger sets are also available to buy Good for parents who Electric, microwave and travel sterilisers using steam will all get very hot, so the usual cautions apply: wait the recommended amount of time before opening the lid after a cycle has completed, open the lid away from you to redirect any steam, use oven gloves to retrieve from the microwave if necessary, and of course keep any hot items away from children.
Microwave steriliser bags have also become more popular in the last few years. These are reusable pouches made from a tough plastic and work by sealing baby equipment in the pouch with some water and microwaving for a set time. These tend to be more roomy than the cup model, with the best fitting two bottles in at a time, and able to be reused around 20 times per bag. Items inside stay sterile for 24 hours and the lid is designed with a flat lip so it can be laid horizontally in a smaller microwave – a useful feature we didn’t find in any other travel steriliser. Capacity: Five bottles | Materials: BPA-free plastics and metal electrical components | Included: Sterilisation unit, one Nuby Combat Colic 180ml bottle and a dummy Good for parents whoTommee Tippee has put a great deal of thought into the redesign of their electric steam steriliser and it really shows. The Tommee Tippee Super-Steam Advanced Electric Steriliser is made from tough BPA-free plastics and is exceptionally straightforward to use, with plenty of room for bottles and breast pump parts over two tiers. The disadvantages are the smell, the need to continually buy new tablets and the inconvenience of keeping a large container full of water in a corner of your kitchen – especially relevant if you have other small children. 2. Electric steriliser The MAM self-sterilising bottles were great as we don't have to have a separate steriliser and can sterilise them at family's houses if needed. The downside is that you do need a microwave." Philips’s ubiquitous Avent brand includes a microwave steam steriliser that is robust, roomy, safe and straightforward to use – though, like our tester, you’ll need to measure your microwave first as it won’t fit in especially compact appliances (it’s 16.6 × 28 × 28cm, for reference). We have a Tommee Tippee microwave one and it's so simple, no faff. Wash the bottles and pop them in the microwave."Tried and tested by Mumsnetter hereforfun.
It takes one touch of a button to start a cycle and, if you have any accompanying Tommee Tippee bottles, each bottle is clearly marked to show how much water to add to the steriliser – a thoughtful touch that our tester really appreciated.If you’re bottle-feeding full-time, however, and need something reliable that will fit in all of your gear, the Dr Brown’s Electric Steam Steriliser is a good choice. Whether you’re new to parenting or not, taking care of a baby can bring all sorts of worries and it’s normal to feel overwhelmed at times, particularly in those early months. But when it comes to bottle feeding your bundle of joy, our comprehensive range of bottle sterilisersmeans you can at least have total peace of mind that their bottles are always clean, germ-free and completely safe. We have plenty of quality designs, which work by using hot steam to sterilise bottles so there’s no need for chemicals - and some of our options can even be used in the microwave. Versatility is something all parents come to appreciate, so consider our multi-purpose sterilisers which can also be used for things like breast pumpsand baby cutlery. Whether you use a container and sterilising tablets, a microwave machine or an electric steriliser, most options don't dry the bottles. That's where the Nuby electric steriliser and dryer is different, as it promises to dry your bottles within 35 minutes or 20 minutes for a fast-dry cycle. You don’t have to use Tommee Tippee bottles either, as it fits most brands of baby bottles. If you'd rather have the plug-in version this appliance is also available as an electric steriliser. As well as baby bottles, teats and breast pump parts, you'll also want to steriliser dummies and teething rings, ideally once a day unless they are dropped on the floor outside.
After the sterilisation cycle is complete, you can leave the items inside without opening the lid and they’ll remain sterile for a set period of time (often 24 hours, but it varies between products). Or you can take them out and use them once they’re cool. We spend hours researching, speaking to parents, analysing data and listening to experts before we test out the products on our shortlist. By the time they’re a year old, your baby’s immune system is much better developed so you can ease off sterilising toys and dummies then. It's a bargain and you don't need any electricity, but you do still need to buy the Milton sterilising tablets or liquid, so it isn't just a one-off cost.Do you have enough kitchen counter space to keep a sterilising unit out all the time? Would you want to if you did? Electric units usually stay plugged in on the counter – they’re too large to store and too bulky for it to be convenient to move them often. As with any appliance, it's another piece of kit to have on your work surface and, if you don't use both compartments with this device you'll need to store them, which could be frustrating if you're short on kitchen space. We tried electric and microwave and ended up using cold water Milton - it’s so easy just keep adding bottles after washing them and they’re sterile in 15 min."Tried and tested by Mumsnetter CharlieB93 Our verdict
