    Best bottles we have tried so far for gassy baby. Down side is there is alot of parts but worth it over a fussy baby Jul 03, 2018

    love these glass bottles! Highly recommend for new moms wanting to know what’s best! There are covers for outside that make them safe for baby and a useful piece inside for for flow change! Jun 01, 2018

    The venting system on these is perfect. They ended Up being our favorite bottle. Only downside is lots of parts but any bottle with a venting system has lots of parts. Dec 02, 2017

    Again horrible nipple for latching Oct 18, 2017

  • Liked these bottles (like Lifefactory a bit better) but still use them as a sippy for my 2 year old. Just change out the nipple for the avent sport spout. Way longer use than typical baby bottle! Sep 02, 2016

  • I've tried several bottles and so far these are our favorite. Dr. Brown, Avent and Mam all leaked for us at times Jun 03, 2016

    I only have three of these, and in retrospect, I wish I would have gone all in and skipped the Tommee Tippee. Mar 15, 2016

  • Love the born free brand. I've have no issues with my 3 babies so far. Wish the rubber protectors came out when my oldest was a baby! Jan 04, 2016

  • Nipples suck! Jul 19, 2015

  • Love them for my newborn up to 5 months of age. After that I switched to a lighter bottle Jun 15, 2015

    Preferred these glass botrles, but baby never really took bottles. Apr 12, 2015

  • I used the bornfree bottles with my first and loved them she Mar 13, 2015

  • Loved these bottles. There isn't really anything special about them. I only wished that I could find more silicone sleeves for the other two bottles. Jan 28, 2015

  • Super thin glass. Broke while in the warmer. Too many pieces to wash and assemble each time. Recommend avent pure glass bottles instead. Those are the best and made in England not china. Jan 26, 2015

  • I feel like glass is the only way to be sure about the plastics we use for our babies. I love these Nov 22, 2014

    baby started out liking these bottles but then refused to take them. Switched to Tommee Tippee and he had a much easier time with those Oct 01, 2014

  • BEST Bottles!! After my daughter quit nursing, these bottles were the only ones she would take! Sep 30, 2014

  • Great for getting daddy involved with middle of the night feedings Sep 10, 2014

  • Baby loves his bottles and despite being glass they're very sturdy even when dropped! Aug 21, 2014

    My son preferred these over the Dr. Browns and I liked that they were glass and easy to clean. Jul 29, 2014

  • great glass bottles. Jul 29, 2014

  • These bottles are great and the venting system works well. Easy to clean. Jul 26, 2014

  • Love the glass! The nipples are thin and my son bit through them, so we switched them out for dr. Browns nipples. Don't drop one on your foot. OW! Jul 24, 2014

  • These were our #1 bottles. Pain to clean though. Lots of parts Jul 24, 2014

    My favorite bottles! The venting is great and milk warms up quickly in the glass. No leaks. The bottle is a dream to clean-- less so the valves. May 16, 2014

  • These have been our favorite bottles! Wide neck is great for breastfeeding and his gas is non-existent with these Apr 30, 2014

  • I bought these when my daughter was born. They have been a great bottle. There are several parts to wash with the venting insert, but worth it. Apr 25, 2014

  • We loved these bottles, used with the Lansinoah Momma nipple! They fit a variety of nipples and the venting really helped with gas! Feb 21, 2014

  • Best bottles ever. Very easy to clean compared to Dr. Browns. I have dropped them a lot and they never even scratched. Feb 13, 2014

  • We've never used another kind but these have worked well for us! Jan 31, 2014

  • Giving this a love because my breastfed baby took to it immediately and hasn't had any nipple confusion. But it annoys me that they're not compatible with any breast pumps. Jan 29, 2014

  • glass bottles. period. Jan 28, 2014

  • Love these bottles...we never used anything else. Jan 27, 2014

  • Love these glass bottles. They hold up well and I feel good that they are not plastic. The slow flow nipple is actually slow, which is great for my breast fed baby. Dec 28, 2013

Everyone
  • Q: How do these do in a bottle warmer? I saw one person said hers broke... anyone else have experience with this? (I am thinking of getting a Kiinde Kozii)

    asked by Samantha J. - Jan 22, 2015

  • I have that warmer and these bottles, the water in the warmer starts out room temp then heats up. So even if you have a cold-from-the-fridge bottle it would be fine.

    Ashley G. - Jan 26, 2015

  • I didn't have a bottle warmer, I just plopped them into a mug full of very warm water and never had any breakage..,.

    Joy K. - Jan 26, 2015

  • They didn't break for me in the bottle warmer, but the thickness of the glass did take longer for the milk to heat up.

    Stephanie T. - Jan 26, 2015

  • I'm with Joy - not bottle warmer, just a mug of warm water. No breakage.
