  • It does sterilize the bottles. But it goes forever to dry the bottle May 10, 2023

  • Its great for when you are in a hurry and don't want to put bottles in boiling water. Apr 13, 2023

  • Perfect sterilizer for most bottles but especially the Avent brand. Fits a good amount and is much simpler than boiling. Also works well for pacifiers and pump parts. Mar 01, 2023

    I don't like the fact that it doesn't dry products. Although they get sterilized, you still need to wait for everything to dry which takes a long time. Feb 22, 2023

  • Perfect for everything that can be sterilized. Feb 18, 2023

  • Sterilizer is so handy as just put bottles inside and microwave them Feb 09, 2023

    This is the best way to sterilize bottles and pump parts! It hold a LOT of parts and it doesn't take forever in the microwave (only 4 minutes!) Oct 12, 2022

  • This is great, I am able to get all bottles sterilized quickly, I wish it could fit more tall bottles though. Oct 03, 2022

  • Only used few times. Bulky, hard to store. Awkward trying to fit items in properly. Doesn’t hold enough at a time. Would not recommend. Aug 31, 2022

  • Did the job Aug 02, 2022

  • Kind of a waste of money. There’s not a whole lot of room for sanitizing Jul 29, 2022

  • Clumsy and bottles don’t fit well. Jul 14, 2022

    This is such a convenient sterilizer! Only thing is that you’re not able to stand taller bottles such as dr browns 8 ounce bottles. We end up laying it side ways and it still works great! Jun 15, 2022

  • I wanted this item so badly but I found myself barely using it once baby arrived! It has worked great the few times I’ve used it, I just found it to be more of a hassle than a necessity! Jun 11, 2022

    I received this as a gift but never used it. I felt hand washing my bottles was just as easy and one less step. Even with four kids, I have never found use for the bottle steamer. Apr 08, 2022

  • So easy to use and works well Nov 28, 2021

  • We had a plug in sterilizer but this was our go to sterilizer and great for travel. Nov 14, 2021

  • I returned mine. The bottles would take DAYS to dry. I don't have time for that. Oct 12, 2021

  • Love this!!! Perfect for sterilizing bottles quickly. Just a note, the tall Dr Brown bottles do not fit in this, unless you lay them at an angle. Aug 22, 2021

    Use it daily!! I do not sterilize everyday but I use it as an extra drying rack for bottles and pumping equipment. Well worth my money spent! Jul 26, 2021

  • This makes cleaning bottles super easy! Absolutely love this item, just be careful when pulling it out of the microwave - it's hot! Jul 14, 2021

  • Very easily to sterilize a lot of items at one time. Used for toys, bottles and pacifiers Jun 01, 2021

  • I used this religiously to sterilize Avent bottles. Worked very well and was a quick process. May 30, 2021

  • Quick and easy sterilizer that we have used for two kids in the bottle stage. I'll also throw my pump parts and pacifiers in there instead of using the sterilizer bags. Less waste! Apr 22, 2021
