Product Information

The MAM Easy Start Self-Sterilising Bottle Set offers an easy switch between breast and bottle. The patented SkinSoft teats are silky soft and provide a familiar feel for babies. This set also includes a 0-2 month soother, an extra soft bottle spout and a Hold My Bottle handle. Milton do a travel steriliser that fits 1 bottle in. In theory any clean plastic container with a lid will do, but the travel sterilisers have the lines on so you put the correct amount of water in (as do the normal Milton sterilisers)." Recommended by Mumsnet user confused123456 Our verdict The self sterilising feature was a real highlight for our parent testers, and they loved how much easier they made feeds, especially when they weren't at home. It's important to clean bottles, teats and other feeding equipment in hot, soapy water and rinse all your equipment before sterilising.

Microwave sterilisers, my personal preference because they’re fast and relatively cheap, are more compact than standalone electric models, but in fact also use steam to sterilise items. They’re easier to clean, as there’s no metal element to descale – you simply heat the container up in the microwave with the bottles inside. You’ll need to make sure your model fits inside your microwave, and it’s worth having sterilisation tablets on hand in case the oven breaks or you have a power cut. Our Electric Steam Steriliser not only ensures your baby's bottles are left sterile for up to 48 hours, but it also can act as a bottle warmer in just minutes and is capable of defrosting and heating baby foods.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 Once you've washed and cleaned your breastfeeding pumps, baby bottles, soothers, lids, teats and bottle accessories and milk and powder storage containers, transfer them into your steriliser where bacteria's killed with high-temperature steam. These baby bottles feature patented teats, made with SkinSoft silicone. Not only are they the ideal shape for babies, but the soft lip rest makes it easier for your little one to feed. Plus, these options allow extra-slow drinking flow, for safer feeding. As a steam steriliser, it’s a spacious model that does its job in just over 10 minutes (seven minutes to sterilise, four minutes cooling time) and in microwave mode – useful if you’re travelling – it takes about the same time, depending on your wattage. It also keeps items bacteria-free for up to 48 hours, twice the usual duration, and stores all your kit out of sight. Our tester, Maisie, is a mum of three with a six-year-old, four-year-old and an 11-month-old baby. She spent six months testing the shortlisted products with her own bottles and breast pump parts, each for a minimum of 10 days.
