Description of Dr. Brown's Natural Flow 4oz Wide Neck Bottles-2 Pack
Dr Brown's Wide Neck Bottles - 4 oz - 2 pk
Made of Polypropylene- BPA Free
This Dr. Brown?s bottle features a patented two-piece internal vent system that works unlike any other bottle design. The vent system fully vents our bottle for vacuum-free feeding, which we call positive-pressure flow, similar to breastfeeding. As the baby feeds, air is channeled from the teat collar through the vent system, bypassing the breastmilk or formula, to the back of the bottle. Air never mixes with the breastmilk or formula which minimizes oxidation and helps maintain essential nutrients like vitamins C, A and E.
Babies feed more comfortably because the vent system allows them to nurse without fighting the negative effects of a vacuum or the discomfort of ingesting air bubbles. This helps to reduce feeding problems like colic, burping, and wind. The breastmilk or formula flows freely, without teat collapse.
Baby Products Reviews of Dr. Brown's Natural Flow 4oz Wide Neck Bottles-2 Pack
Customer Review: Beware, not made in USA
Summary: 3 Stars
We wanted to try Dr. Brown's bottle cause our LO is gassy and spits up more often than we like. I was debating to get the wide neck or the standard. The wide neck made so much more sense since the nipple is more of a modern design (like Avent and others) and Dr. Brown claims its more closer to actual breast nipples. In addition, the wide neck provides a good large opening for easy mixing of formula.
However, we have a big problem with this model. The standard version has a MADE IN USA shield tagged in front of the box, this one doesn't. Upon closer inspection, we found out this unit was made in China. We went back to the store where we purchased from and as it turns out, all of the wide neck bottles are made in China. I guess Handi-Craft decided to bring their newer line manufacturing to China. In my opinion, its a big mistake. We like Dr. Brown's bottle, our baby doesn't need to burp as much compared to Avent. For whatever reason, they decided they need to compete in price or increase profit.... what a shame. Quality control in China its almost a guessing game. Just remember the recent lead paint in toys and melamine laced milk powders (domestic products within China) I'm sure parents will pay a premium for products that's made in a place where quality controls matters.
Avent is made in England, Born-Free is made in Israel. They all have vented bottles that reduces colics. I will try out the standard version but not sure if our baby will get used to the smaller nipple and latch on. If that doesn't work, guess which brand I'm going to switch now... what a shame.
EDIT: Yes, the product works great, our LO spits up/vomits less and the level 1 nipples flows slower than Avent's lvl 1, which is a good thing for our LO, she tends to choke on Avent's. She burps much less now which is a good thing but its harder on us since we expect her to burp so the burping session is longer than usual now. Maybe later we will feel comfortable not trying to burp her for that long.
We also tried the standard version, unfortunately, our LO won't take to its smaller nipple and mixing formula is not easy with its narrower neck.
Overall, Dr. Brown's wide neck is the best bottle for reducing colic and gases. We just can't trust where its made. We even wrote to the company to express our disappointment in which they responded assuring us that all products coming from overseas are vigorously tested by 3rd party. Even with that assurance, we can't be 100% confidence with its quality.
