Baby Products Reviews of Night & Day Bottle Warmer
Customer Review: stupid people.
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading mostly all of the reviews on the site, I have come to the conclusion that more than half of the people writing the reviews are either really stupid or dumb, which I have not figured that out yet. First off, Most of the complaints about the machine have to do with the inability of the user to properly use the machine, at no fault to the machine mind you. First example the Vent Aire bottles are not made to be used with a bottle warmer, it says so in the literature with the bottles. And the inability of people to get the right amount of water right has nothing to do with the inability of the machine, it is just a matter of trial and error. Thirdly, as for the Dr. Bottles of the 8oz. variety not fitting the machine, that is again not the machines fault, just use the wide 8oz bottle, and they fit like a charm. There are a few more minor complaints that can be attributed to the machine, but they are minor. All of the negative complaints came from the users unability to properly use the machine, so If you are reading this read carefully the reviews above, espicially the negative ones and you will see what I am talking about.Customer Review: it's ok

i got two bottle warmers from two different people, this one and the quick serve bottle warmer from the same manufacturer. when it comes to heating bottles both are phenomenal--it heats evenly and effciently. but i really recommend getting the quick serve bottle warmer because i found no use for the cooler the night & day bottle warmer came with and i believe that is the only difference between the two (and that the quick serve is a few dollars cheaper). the quick serve bottle warmer also takes up less space (since it doesnt come with a cooler). i also found no use for having two measuring cups--it's not like i'm gonna be heating up two bottles at the same time. what i do like better about the night & day bottle warmer is the safety feature that prevents overheating (it won't turn on if 10 minutes haven't passed in between bottle heatings), although i think most people can just time it themselves. a complaint i have for the two bottle warmers is that the lines on the measuring cups can get easily scratched off, just mainly from me lightly touching it on a daily basis. mine started coming off within only a month of using it.Customer Review: Lifesaver, especially after a C-section
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen these in the past, but lived in a single-story apartment with my first two babies and the kitchen was close enough I didn't need one. When I was expecting my third baby, we were in a two-story with all the bedrooms upstairs. I didn't want to go downstairs at night, so I looked for one of these. After scouring the local stores (they didn't carry them), I ordered this one off Amazon.
When I ended up having a C-section, I was so glad to have this!
It works wonderfully! If you want the bottle warmer/cooler, just adjust the amount of water you put in up/down. We like ours just room temperature to avoid risk of it being too hot, but not shock the baby with freezing cold formula. The table in the instructions gives the right amount of water for a room temperature bottle.
It's great to keep this by the bed. I just have my husband stock it before taking the kids out, and I can stay in bed with baby and nap & recover, and still be able to feed him if he gets hungry.
You can order extra ice packs (or so says the instructions). My only wish would be that it came with two to start with.
Customer Review: A MUST HAVE, EASY AND CONVENIENT!

I wasn't sure I was going to need this, but boy am I glad I registered for it! This is a genius product; especially if you don't want to go up and down the stairs in the middle of the night to reach your kitchen. Even if you have a one level home, once you use it you'll wonder why other people spend time warming up bottles in microwaves 10 seconds at a time, or with hot water from the sink. We have not experienced any burns or overheating. We use the Avent bottles and follow the guidelines for water amount to use that come with the instructions, if you stick to the chart you cannot go wrong. If you don't understand the chart (which is so easy my 6 year old could figure it out!) then that's when you'll get an over or under heated bottle. Simply follow the instructions and it's dummy-proof. Even my mother who's old fashioned and anti new era raves about this item. The only thing that I don't see is that on this site, this product is described with a night light, but my model does not have such night light ---would be nice to have, but I already had a night light, so I didn't need another one. Kudos to First Years!Customer Review: Don't waste your money!!

I got this item as a shower gift and I wish I would've kept the receipt and returned it! I was so excited at first because someone actually got it for me (since I did request it on my registry list). I thought this was going to be a great item to have for late night feedings, so I won't have to keep going back and forth to the kitchen. Boy, was I wrong!!
I'd have to agree with the rating from "Stace". This item doesn't work with the Playtex drop-ins, even though it says that it would work with disposables! Yeah, right!
My husband and I just couldn't put in the right amount of water to warm the bottle just perfect (even after following the recommended amount of water for disposables). It's either too hot or still too cold!We've even tried using the Avent bottle instead of the disposables, but it still didn't work!! My husband and I hate this item so much that we don't even use it anymore!!
So, don't waste your money and your time!! Not to mention, at three o'clock in the morning, you certainly won't have the patience to warm a bottle two or three more times because it's not warm enough!!
