Not all bottle warmers operate in the same way, so it’s best to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of your specific bottle warmer.

In our testing, we fill the bottles up, hold them upside-down, warm them, freeze them, feed newborn babies and infants with them, clean them by hand and dishwasher, sterilize them, and test the various nipple flows.

Newborn babies feed about 8 to 12 times per day. If you're using a bottle for even half of those feedings, you want to make sure it's not going to cause gas, stomach upset, spit-up, or colic. You also want to make sure the bottles promote a good latch and prevent lazy feeding, do not exacerbate nipple confusion, are free of harmful chemicals, and are easy to clean and use.

For toddlers, most parents transition away from a baby bottle to a sippy cup or straw cup. We recommend skipping the sippy cup entirely and going straight to the straw cup. The suction required to successfully use a straw cup is great for the development of lip, tongue, and cheek movement and control, and there is some research suggesting that this benefits speech production. Some great options for first sippy cups and straw cups can be found in our best sippy cups review. Meanwhile, features like automatic shut-off, Bluetooth operation, and even a cooler feature can be a lifeline — especially in those early days. Budget We also want to make sure you realize that BPA-free does not mean that the plastics used will not leach estrogenic chemicals into milk, particularly when the materials are stressed (like heated or microwaved). In fact, a recent study published in Environmental Health demonstrated that several BPA-free products, including BPA-free baby bottles, still leached harmful chemicals. For example, some studies demonstrate that the plastic used in Nalgene water bottles (called Tritan) leaches estrogenic chemicals. Of course, nobody knows the short- or long-term consequences of this, but it is worth considering. In comparison, the study found no evidence that two particular plastics, COC and COP, leach these chemicals.

Three brands that receive consistently high marks from parents and experts alike are Dr. Brown's, Comotomo, and Philips Avent. These bottles have venting systems to reduce colic and gas, mimic the shape of a breast, and are great for moms who are transitioning between nursing and bottle feeding." -ChatGPT-4 This regular maintenance doesn’t need to be a deep clean. However, you’ll want to periodically clean your bottle warmer to prevent bacteria, mold, hard water, and general dirt from building up — especially if you let water sit in the reservoir for prolonged periods. If you’re not using a bottle warmer, it’s recommended to replicate the process by filling a jug or bowl with warm water and placing your baby’s bottle inside for no more than 15 minutes.
