Summary: Vent system is faulty
Comment: I've had these bottles for 6 months and they work OK except for one major flaw. The vent system doesn't work well. To get air to flow into the bottle, you frequently have to loosen the cap and this can lead to a messy leak. Dr Brown makes bottles that are BPA free, cost much less, and don't have venting issues.

Summary: Great BPA free bottles
Comment: I ordered these bottles to replace my Dr. Brown's bottles when my daughter was about 5 months because they were BPA free. I was worried that she wouldn't take the new bottles well because they were a different size and shape but she didn't hesitate at all.

We have had no problems with these bottles. She is now 11 months and they have held up great.

The one thing that I didn't like about the Dr. Brown's bottles I originally had was all of the different parts. While the Born Free bottles have just as many parts to wash, you do not need a special small brush for these like you do with the Dr. Brown's bottles which I like.

Summary: Best Unbreakable BPA-free bottles on the market
Comment: Look no further, these are the best "safe" (BPA-free & unbreakable) bottles you'll find. The wide neck makes pouring milk into them very easy without spills. They're lightweight & easy to clean - those inexpensive Munchin bottle brushes will work fine. We used the level 1/slowest flow nipple for our son's entire first year because we found the higher flow nipples allowed too much milk to spill out everywhere once he was able to feed himself & carry his own bottle.

We were skeptical of pretty much all plastic bottles, and so our first purchases were glass bottles - but we learned the hard way that glass definitely isn't the best option for an active little baby. We tried Wee-go Glass bottles w/silicone sleeve, which by the way, we DO NOT recommend because our then 10-month old dropped and broke 2 of them, leaving little shards of glass on the floor(!!).

Born Free bottles are currently the safest way to go. A time-saving tip: serve only cold or room-temperature bottles. We don't recommend heating any type of plastic bottles ever - even "safe" plastic bottles like these. If you start kids off with cold bottles they'll be happy with them & won't know the difference.

Summary: Nipple Collapse
Comment: I am very disappointed in these bottles. After reading reviews, they seemed like the best option for BPA free bottles. At first they worked ok with my newborn, but after less than 2 weeks nearly every nipple collapses during feedings, and my baby keeps on sucking in more air - you can actually hear her sucking in air. She gets very gassy and uncomfortable after feedings and I blame it mainly on these bottles and nipples. I switched to the new Dr. Browns BPA free bottles and they seem so be working great so far -- AND they are not as expensive as the Born Free. Some people seem to love the Born Free bottles, just didn't work for us. Good luck!!

Summary: Use with Gerber NUK nipples
Comment: These bottles are great for being BPA free, but they cause alot of collic without a better nipple than comes with the bottle.

I've found that the Gerber NUK nipples work best!(YES...they fit) They are more like the breast, which the baby loves, and they are much easier on baby (she doesn't have to suck as hard, and she gets less air, which reduces her collic by a major amount).

I would recommend if you can't see your self using any other bottle, try a Gerber NUK nipple, especially if you have a collicy baby!
