  • Had to use it when our stores ran out of the Pro Advance. My son did not have any issues. However, it did seem a little 'thicker' than the Pro Advance and smelled a little weird but nothing bad. May 14, 2021

  • Great price, just my baby did not tolerate. This caused her severe constipation. Apr 29, 2021

  • My daughter was very picky with formula, but loved this kind just as much as breast milk! Feb 03, 2020

  • My favorite for my girls. Looked like milk (some formulas are darker) and didn't smell terrible. Sign up for Similac Mom's and grocery store moms program if they have one for coupons Jul 30, 2019

    • Kay R.

    • far rockaway, New York

    The baby enjoys does not upset her stomach and the best part is Similac mails coupons every month! Apr 18, 2019

  • Used this for both my daughters, won't use any other formula. They have good coupons, usually get sent some every month for $5 off a can. Downside not enough coupons Feb 03, 2019

  • Similac has always been my favorite formula brand, I loved this specific product as well. Oct 17, 2018

  • After 4 months of breastfeeding & pumping, we started to do 1/2 breast milk &1/2 of this. (mama needed a BREAK!). We would also use this if I wouldn't be able to feed/pump for a while when we were out Sep 16, 2018

  • This was a really good formula. Never constipated my son as many others did. May 10, 2018

    One of the best for formulas that we have used and it always agrees well with my breast fed babies. Oct 26, 2017

  • Nutritionally solid. However, this caused our baby to be constipated. Her tummy problems stopped when we switched to another formula. Don't think its a bad product so much as it didn't suite our baby. Oct 20, 2017

    I use the formula to supplement and my baby loves it. Oct 18, 2017
