Description of The First Years: Easy Store & Thaw Milk Organizer
The First Years makes it easy for breastfeeding moms to store and freeze their milk, at home or away. The Easy Store & Thaw Milk Organizer arranges storage bags by date, so the correct bag can be found quickly. The retractable lid protects and separates the bags from spoilage from other foods. Plus, it looks like an ice tray, so milk can be stored discreetly when you're not at home.You get two high-impact poylstyrene trays; each holds six milk-storage bags (of any type) upright, and the trays can be stacked on top of one another to save space when necessary. Each tray measures 6.5" x 4" x 13.25".
Baby Products Reviews of The First Years: Easy Store & Thaw Milk Organizer
Customer Review: Great for organization and freshness
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm surprised to see that people do not like this product. I love mine. The only downside is that I wish it would hold more bags. Each drawer/tray holds 6 bags (6 oz ea). That means you can store a total of 12 bags. I don't know how people bought this and didn't know that ahead of time though! Not only is it clearly labled, but you can easily count on your own by looking at the photo!
When I purchased this I bought two. That way I could store 24 bags (Thats' a lot!) They are stackable so I put two side by side and stack two on top of those. They will fit almost any type of freezer storage bag so I'm not sure why people are complaining that they don't. Make sure you put the bag in the tray BEFORE its frozen. Liquids will mold to any shape, so you won't have a problem. If you try shoving a bag in after its frozen, sure you'll have issues!
There are 2 things I love about this product.
1) It keeps my breastmilk away from all the other foods in my freezer. Its nice that its in a bag and also in this nice sturdy plastic tray. It keeps it from absorbing any smells from the other frozen foods
2) I can organize my milk by date and I never have to go searching through a pile of milk bags. I open the tray and pull out the oldest milk in line. I rotate when a tray empties. I NEVER have to wonder if I'm missing a bag. For any extra milk I have around (beyond the 24 bags I store using 2 units) I keep it that in a plastic grocery bag and when I empty a tray I go through and put in the next 6 oldest bags. I'm always organized! I love that.
Personally I LOVE the medela Pump and Save breastmilk freezer bags. They hold 6 oz, have a zip-lock top, and a place to write down the name, date, and amount of oz in the bag. ALL freezer bags are inacurate with their markings because they are BAGS. Squeeze the bag, alter its shape, and the milk shifts, there's no way to know the exact ounces! It doesn't matter the brand! Plus, liquid expands when frozen. The best bet is to collect your milk in a marked BOTTLE first. Note the ounces then write them down in the provided spot on the Medela pump and save freezer bags. That way you and your caregiver knows EXACTLY what is in the bag. Don't try and guess!
I recommend this product if you want a nice way to organize your milk and keep it fresh and protected. I wish they could hold a few more bags, but 2 units (4 total trays) has been working out for me and I've been breastfeeding my little one for almost 6 months.
