Dr. Brown's Microwave Steam Sterilizer for Baby Bottles, Nipples, Bottle Parts, Pacifiers, Teethers and Breast Pump Parts

First of all, the sterilizer works like a charm. The assembly instructions were easy to understand, and it's easy to use. It has four buttons: power, sterilization function, drying function, and sterilization and drying in one button. It's worth mentioning that sterilization takes about 10 minutes, while the drying function takes about 45 minutes. The total time it would take to sterilize and dry bottles is approximately 1 hour (55 minutes of operation and 5 minutes of preparing bottles and accessories). It's important to mention that for optimal drying performance, you should keep the surrounding area clean of dust, as the unit draws in air from the surroundings, filters it (by the way, it comes with a replacement filter), and introduces it at a hot temperature to dry the entire interior.To avoid cleaning your water heater, it is highly recommended to use 100% distilled water of the highest quality, as it does not contain impurities, chemicals, or residues, and will not cause the formation of scale that occurs when using tap water or any other water source.If distilled water is unavailable, the manufacturer recommends cleaning it periodically with a mixture of water and white vinegar. The proportions of water and vinegar are mixed directly in the dispenser (marked with continuous, segmented lines).

I wish I had bought this sterilizer sooner! With a newborn in the house, I’m constantly washing bottles, pacifiers, pump parts — and this makes it so much easier. It fits several bottles at once (I use Dr. Brown’s and they fit perfectly), and I love that it also dries everything afterwards — no more towel drying or worrying about germs.It’s really easy to use: just add water, press a button, and done. I like that it has an auto shut-off and different modes (sterilize only, dry only, or both). The drying function is a huge bonus — everything comes out warm and dry, ready to use.One tip: be sure to clean out the base regularly to avoid any buildup from the water. Other than that, it’s been working flawlessly.If you’re a tired parent like me, this is one of those products that actually saves time and energy. Definitely worth it!

Absolutely a necessity to have to ensure sanitation and sterilization of baby bottles, pacifiers, breast pump accessories, etc. Extremely functional and simple to use. It was easy to set up and understand the instructions. It’s much larger than the picture and will take up a lot counter space. Not a problem because it’s so useful and needed. But the pictures do not tell its size at all. I knew how large it would be because I’ve seen this in person many times. I would recommend this bottle sterilizer a million times over… very good quality and value for the money. Much less expensive than some other brands. Lots of room for all my baby’s bottles and stuff. It’s quiet and designed pretty minimally. Not a lot of lights, bells and whistles and settings to work through. I like that it sterilizes quickly and you have the option to dry or not dry. The drying takes longer than the sterilization process. It’s good to be able to use one option or the other, or even both options. I wish this until had a wash option would be my only request. I would definitely recommend the brand and shipper. It arrived next day and packaged very well as to not get damaged in transit.

This sterilizer is everything I was looking for and more. The size is perfect, it easily accommodates 6 full size bottles on the bottom rack with room for all the extra pieces on the top rack. I primarily use it for pump parts, pacifiers, and teethers. It fits so much into one load that I don’t have to use nearly as often as I thought. Prior to this I was boiling everything to sterilize and items came out with a nasty film on them but not with this sterilizer. I simply fill with a very small amount of water, load, and it’s ready to go! So easy. Sterilizes and fries plus keeps everything inside sterile until I need it again so no unnecessary unloading. It’s quiet, compact, and a full sterilize and dry took around 45 minutes. Totally effortless, wish I’d had it with my first baby!

Nice size bottle quality very easy, clean quiet and comfort out of your money. If you stay at home, mom is great if you have more than one child.

TLDR - worth buying, saves time, sanity, and size is good. Only downside is residue deposits and no timer on the machine.This is a great product. It’s only not getting a 5 star because it leaves a rust/crust residue after each use originating from the heating pad source and there is no timer to let you know when it’s about to be done. I can’t count the times I’ve just sat down from chores and the beeper went to announce the cycle had completed. This will sanitize and dry in less than an hour - around 40-45 mins from our mental timer.It’s worth buying this to save you manually sanitizing bottles and drying with a sanitize bag or a sanitize box. The dry feature is great. It also has a compartment on the top for smaller items like bottle teets, pacifiers, and breast pump parts. The size is good as it can handle large and small bottles and can be filled to the max and still adequately do the job.
