Description of Philips AVENT Tempo Nurser, 4 Ounce
The 4 oz. AVENT Tempo Natural Feeding Nurser works with AVENT Wide Pre-Formed Liners and your baby's own natural feeding rhythm to promote healthy, active feeding. Naturally shaped nipple promotes proper latch-on. Because baby controls milk flow, it's more like breastfeeding ? and that helps reduce the risks of overeating, spit-up and colic. At home or away, day or night, now you have the convenience of a sterile bottle whenever you need it.Baby Products Reviews of Philips AVENT Tempo Nurser, 4 Ounce
Customer Review: A little disappointed but still a good product
Summary: 3 Stars
I used Avent with my two older kids and was very excited when I heard they were coming out with a disposable system which worked with the bottles (the old system had color coded nipples that you had to match to the nurser or bottle and they weren't interchangeable.)
The biggest selling points of this new system is that if you are already using avent bottles or were planning on it you can add these nursers without keeping two sets of nipples. Everything that you love about the Avent bottles holds true with the nursers. You can pump directly into them and that's a big plus.
Here are the major drawbacks:
1. The nurser base is very wide. I have small hands and found the nursers to be very cumbersome and they didn't feel natural to hold during feedings. The nursers are a lot wider than the bottles, if you've used the old version of the nursers you'll also notice how much larger this new design is. My husband who has much larger hands than me said that he liked the wider bottle and it didn't seems as easy to drop and felt more natural to him.
2. You can't use other brands of liners. I pump & store my milk, and I've found that the bags are just TOO narrow to fit this bottle (Playtex & Lansinoh). You are either going to have to pump directly into this liner or you'll have to transfer milk (which for me defeated the whole point, since I use Lansinoh to store milk flat in the freezer!)
3. This bottle won't take the Playtex Drop Ins either, they are MUCH smaller than the Avent brand. If you can't find the Avent liners easily in your area you'll be stuck ordering online.
All in all, I think this is a good product if you are willing to deal with the issues I've stated. I used Avent with my older children and I SWEAR by their system however this product just wasn't for me. For all of the trouble I had with it, it just made more sense in my situation not to use them.
For now I will keep using my Avent bottles. I might try the Playtex disposable system however I have learned that their system doesn't have as many silicone nipple options as Avent (Playtex currently makes: Slow, Fast & Variable Flow vs. Avent: Slow, Medium, Medium-Fast, Fast & Variable)
