Baby Products Reviews of Born Free Twin Pack Wide Neck Bottles, 9-Ounce
Customer Review: Works great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love these bottles, and our babies love them too. Too much, if you ask me. Truthfully, it seems like our babies get gassier from breastfeeding than bottle feeding, which is odd, because I've heard it typically works the other way. The main reason I wanted to review these though, is that a lot of people talked about the nipple collapsing. I've had that happen twice... but not for the reasons you'd expect. We're all a little delirious in the first months, and sleep deprived. Well, if you forget to put the vents in, the bottle will collapse, and your baby will have a little milkbath. Trust me, not my finest hour. I think most of the people who've complained about the nipple collapsing must have done this, and not realized their mistake. If you use the bottle right, the thing works fantastic.Customer Review: great, safe, alternative to the avent bottles
Summary: 5 Stars
After having spent a considerable amount of $$$ on an avent bottle supply, I was leary to make the switch. I am so happy that I did it. Although the bottles are a bit pricey, it is so much better having the piece of mind that I am not causing my son any harm with a chemical-laden bottle. And a friend of mine helped me save a lot of money by pointing out that the nipples from dr. browns and Avent bottles work perfectly well in the bornfree bottles so no need to spend extra cash if making the switch. The only down-side to using the nonbornfree nipples is that the bottle caps dont fit snuggly so leaking can occur, but it has not been an issue for me, I just wait to make the bottle when I am going to give it to him, and use my finger to cover the nipple when I shake it.Customer Review: Great at first, but...
Summary: 3 Stars
I switched my son from Dr. Brown's bottles to these Born Free ones, after learning about the BPA in Dr. Brown's. At first, these bottles were great! My son made a very easy transition from the Dr. Brown's to these. After about 1 1/2 months of use, my daycare provider started having problems with the nipples collapsing. I have tried everything from making sure the collar isn't too tight, to looking closely at the slit in the venting system. I can't seem to figure out what is going wrong. It doesn't happen all the time...just periodically. I emailed Born Free over 3 weeks ago and I haven't heard back (not very good customer service if you ask me). Overall, I am glad I am feeding my son out of BPA free bottles, but I wish the nipples wouldn't collapse.Customer Review: Dr. Brown is way better
Summary: 2 Stars
I wish I had believed the negative review before I purchased these bottles. Their venting system is not good. I can see lots of bubbles come out when my baby takes his milk. The worst part is when I first screw the nipple on, and test the milk flow, the milk will actually gush straight out, which could potentially choke my baby. I have to unscrew them, and then tight the top part again. Do it at least three times. You can imagine there is no fun doing this with a hungry baby in your arms crying for food. In fact, my baby got mad so many times with these bottles that I have to stop using them. Dr. Brown is way way better, although it is not BPA free. I am not sure about BPA part, but I am sure my baby does not like these "Born free" bottles.Customer Review: Best Bottles out there!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just wanted to start off by saying I was shocked by some of the negative reviews of these bottles; they are by far the best bottles that we have found by far (and we have tried a few). With my first daughter we used Avent and liked them, but they leaked quite a bit...I actually thought that was normal. In the two months that we have used these, there has been no leaking whatsoever and the new Avent bottles we bought (because of BPA) still leak all over the place. Dr. Browns are OK, but their parts are so much more difficult too clean. I personally don't find cleaning the two, simple, extra parts with this bottle to be a chore at all. I know they're pretty pricey, but we have found them to be more than worth the extra few bucks.
