Baby Products Reviews of The First Years Night&Day Bottle Warmer SystemCustomer Review: Great Product Summary: 4 StarsI love this bottle warmer. It is really fast. The only complaint that I have with it is that if you are using a small amount of formula, it heats up really fast, so you have to pay attention to the temperature. Otherwise, it is great and a great price too!
Customer Review: Great Product but... Summary: 4 StarsI can honestly say I love this bottle warmer because it is very convenient for those in a 2-story house. We loved being able to keep the bottle cool and save the trip downstairs in the middle of the night. Even when my son was sleeping through the night we still kept his morning bottle in his room and used this warmer to keep it cool. But...I was very disappointed that my Dr. Brown's bottles were too wide for the warmer. The taller Dr. Brown's bottle fit in the warmer but were too tall to fit in the cooler. I ended up still using the cooler but storing the Dr. Brown's bottles in there without the nipple and cap on so they would fit. My only suggestion would be to make the warmer wider so all bottles can fit.
Customer Review: A must for a two story house!!!!! Summary: 4 StarsI love this product! I purchased it when my daughter was 4 weeks old after seeing it on a friends baby registry. (when I saw what it was, I bought two, one for her and one for me!) My husband and I were constantly trying new ways to keep the bottles we brought upstairs before we went to bed cold and then find the easiest(and quickest) way to warm them in the middle of the night without having to go back downstairs. Once we bought the day and night warmer, we simply placed it on my nightstand and the bottles were ready to warm when baby cried! I will admit that the whole water measuring thing doesn't work very well, but once you get used to it, you just know how long it takes. I just pour a little water in and once I hear it boil, I wait about a minute and the bottle is done! I had the Avent warmer downstairs and liked this warmer so much better (because it is much faster!) that I bought the First Years basic bottle warmer for downstairs and packed the Avent one away! There are two things you need to know before using...1. If you are warming a VentAire or Dr. Brown's bottle unscrewing the nipple is a must! The heat messes with the whole vaccum process and the milk will leak out the top while heating and 2. the steam heats the bottles fast, but I have burnt a finger or two with the steam while heating a bottle in my sleepy state during those early weeks! Also, I love VentAire bottles, but the warm water/steam from bottle warmers can get trapped in the bottoms of the bottles...just tip the ventaire's around a bit to make sure there is no hot water trapped up inside the vent that will burn baby. (this happens with VentAire's in any traditional warmer that involves water) Overall, this warmer/cooler saves me plenty of time (and sleep) during night feedings.
Customer Review: Not worth it Summary: 1 StarsI purchased this bottle warmer and as others have mentioned, I put the correct amount of water in the chamber but sometimes it stills either gets the bottle to hot or it doesn't warm it at all. So I find myself going downstairs to get a cup to warm the water in the microwave and finish warming the bottle or getting cold water from the faucet to cool the bottle. This it what the warmer is for convenience but, to me this particular unit is not. Now that my son is on the AVENT 12oz bottles (he is only 2 months old so I skipped the 9oz bottles might as well buy 12oz and put the amount of ounces you need instead of buying 9oz then 12oz save money that way in my opinion) it will not fit in the chamber so I had to go out and buy another unit. I brought the Especially for Baby Bottle Warmer and its great. This unit warms the bottle just right not to hot and not to cold. So if you are going to be using the AVENT bottles I suggest the Esp. for baby bottle warmer.
Customer Review: This was great for about 3 wks Summary: 3 StarsI don't know if we bought a defective warmer or if we just don't know how to use it right. We haven't had to use the cooler because we have a small refrigerator in the baby's room so I can't comment on that. But the warmer has never warmed the bottles consistantly. We put the same amount of water in every time and sometimes it's just right and sometimes it's too hot. We've had this warmer 3 1/2 weeks and now it is starting to not work. It is frustrating to put a bottle in, change my baby's diaper (while he's hungry) and then go to find my bottle is still cold. I even hold my hand over the warmer at first to see if it is warming and it seems to be but it's not. It works about every 3rd time. I give it 3 stars only because I haven't used the cooler part and can't comment on whether it works good or not. I'm not sure what we are going to do about this warmer but if we buy a new one, it won't be another one of these.
