Baby Products Reviews of Medela Breastmilk Storage and Feeding Set
Customer Review: Love these bottles, caps and nipples
Summary: 5 Stars
I just love these Medela products. The bottles are great for storage (both freezer and fridge). I really like that they hold more than 4 oz of milk. I have noticed my baby doesn't spit up as much when she is fed using the Medela nipples. I like the fact that when you hold the bottle one way, the flow is slow and if you hold it the other way, the flow is a bit faster. It allows me to control how quickly she eats. If I notice she is eating to quickly, I just turn the bottle around and her eating slows down. She hardly spits up when I feed her from these bottles/nipples. And, I love the pop-out caps too. GREAT PRODUCT!!!! I'm going to purchase more even tho I have a ton of evenflo bottles (they work with teh medela pump too). I like the Medela bottles much better!!!Customer Review: Containers are great, although the nipples seem to have too fast of a flow.
Summary: 4 Stars
The containers are great, and all total, I have eight of these containers. I also have four Lansinoh containers which also work with the medela pump that I have. I prefer the Medela 2.5 oz. containers for freezing because they have an area where you can write the date with a dry-erase marker. I have twenty-four of the 2.5 oz, and that is what I use for freezing. When using the bottle part of these, the nipple seems to have a much faster flow than the Nuk Orthodontic Slow Flow bottles as my son gets a lot of milk dribbling down his mouth and shirt when we use these. My son does very well on the Nuk Slow Flow bottles -- So I don't use the nipple part very often, but the containers are nice and convenient and a great size for pumping and storing at work.Customer Review: love them!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had bought the advent bottles and my daughter always seemed to be struggling with the amount of milk that came out, especially when she was very young. The milk was always running down her chin and she gulped it. I had the medela pump in style and these bottles but never used it because I preferred the Advent manual pump...until I returned to work. Once I started using the medela electric pump I tried the bottles and found that the nipples were great. She no longer had as much gas and seemed to be able to manage the milk flow much better...sucked more like she did when she nursed. Guess the key is to only buy a few types of any bottle and give them all a try. If you read the mixed reviews, you realize all babies are different!Customer Review: Compatible with Mother's Milkmate!
Summary: 4 Stars
These bottles are great but are very pricey. I have a 2 month old and I was producing more more milk than he was drinking allowing me to store some in the freezer. I was hesitant to use the bags because I was afraid they would leak so I found myself wanting to buy more bottles, but for $18.99 for 6, I needed to find another alternative. I did some research and found bottles made my Mother's Milkmate (mothersmilkmate.com or on ebay) These bottles are compatible with the Madela breast pump and nipple rings. The refrigerator storage system is great too, you have to check out the website to understand what I mean. If you love these bottles, you've love the milkmate ones as well.
Hope this helps and saves you money!
Customer Review: Expensive-- There Are Alternatives for Storage!
Summary: 3 Stars
I have the Medela Pump In Style Traveler pump and needed additional storage containers for the milk. I like the Medela collection/storage bottles in terms of quality. They hold over 5 oz. of milk and seem to seal well. However this set was very expensive to me.. my baby takes the Avent bottles so I just needed something simply for collecting and storing temporarily in the fridge. I didn't need all the caps and nipples that came in this set. But I wanted something more reuseable than the bags. My husband figured out that you can use the Evenflo collection/storage containers with the Medela pump. We got 4 Evenflo bottles for only 4.99-- I could get about 16 collection bottles for the price of 4 Medela ones!
