Description of Philips Avent Express Microwave Sterilizer
Use the power of your microwave to thoroughly sterilize infant feeding accessories in just four to six minutes. The rack holds up to four Avent Bottles or the Isis Breast Pump and its accessories (sold separately), plus microwave-safe plastic feeding utensils. Includes two 9-ounce Avent Reusable Bottles.Sterilize six baby bottles in just two minutes: imagine what our grandparents would say! The Avent Express II Microwave Sterilizer is a modern-day technological wonder.and a joy for most parents, who will do anything for a little peace of mind and a few extra minutes to spare. Using a regular kitchen microwave, this lightweight sterilizer eliminates household bacteria and keeps contents sterile for up to 24 hours. It can be used to sterilize Avent feeding bottles of varying sizes (and their nipples, rings, and dome caps), Avent Isis breast pump accessories, Via cups and lids, Via Disposable Nursers, and other non-electrical Avent products. Its compact size and ease of use make the sterilizer perfect for traveling, too. Protect Your Baby from Bacteria
The Avent Express II Microwave Sterilizer effectively and quickly kills the kind of household bacteria that can wreak havoc on babies' delicate new systems. Establishing a routine of washing bottles and pump supplies in gentle, soapy water, then sterilizing them, will ensure that baby will have a clean start in life.
No More Pots and Pans and Boiling Water
The Avent Express is simplicity itself once you get the hang of it. After reading the detailed instructions with great care (assembly and loading are not completely intuitive, and there are important details that can make all the difference in safety and effectiveness of the sterilizer), pour the correct amount of water into the base. Load the pre-washed bottles and feeding components into the appropriate spots in the plastic rack, position the lid over the sterilizer base and lock the clips into place. (You'll hear a click.) Place the sterilizer in the center of the microwave, and select microwave wattage and timings (a chart is included to determine proper wattage and time). Allow the unit to cool for at least two minutes before removing the sterilizer from the microwave. Use the safety grips on the base-they stay cooler to ensure safer handling. If you don't remove the lid, the contents will stay sterile for up to 24 hours.
Care and Cleaning
The all-plastic sterilizer is dishwasher safe. Always drain the excess water from the unit and rinse to prevent the build-up of limescale. Always store when the unit is completely dry.
What's in the Box
The Avent Express II Microwave Sterilizer consists of a sturdy plastic base (11 inches in diameter) with safety grips; a bottle/accessory rack with dome cap stem, bottle cavity, nipple cavity, and Isis Breast Pump slots; and a lid with locking clips. It can be used with most standard microwaves with wattage range from 500 to 1,850 watts. The box also contains two nine-ounce Avent bottles with their rings, nipples, and dome caps, as well as a detailed and illustrated instruction manual.
Note: When taking the sterilizer out of the microwave, use great caution! It will still be hot, as will be the contents. When removing the lid, point it away from you to allow the steam to escape. Follow loading, assembling, and care instructions meticulously. --Emilie Coulter

Baby Products Reviews of Philips Avent Express Microwave Sterilizer
Customer Review: Works for Other Bottles Besides Avent
Summary: 4 Stars
When researching bottle sterilizers, it was important that it could work with various brands of bottles. Although this is an Avent brand, it works with other bottles, too. I purchased several bottle brands to see which one my newborn would like best (Avent, Dr. Brown's, Playtex Ventaire, MAM, Sassy, Evenflo, Born Free). All of them fit in this sterilizer. You have to be creative with where you place all the parts and pieces and even if the little spots in this sterilizer aren't designed perfectly to fit with other brands, you can make it work.
My ONLY complaint is that when I have to go up to the 8-9 oz. size bottles (I'm using Playtex Ventaire exclusively now), they won't fit in this thing because the bottles are too tall and the cover won't fit on it and I'm already depressed about that because this sterilizer is a life-saver! I can't imagine the days when you had to boil water on the stove everytime you needed to sterilize bottles! This thing is so easy--2 minutes in the microwave and then let it sit for a minute and off to the bottle drying rack because obviously the bottles are wet from the steaming.
