 Garbage July 6, 2010
Eric C. Larson (Ohio, USA)
Shape, feel, and concept all fine, but in practice these bottles just aren't worth the risk. Many people have said they love Avent bottles and have had no problems with them, but we've had nothing but trouble with the ten we own. They leak. Not necessarily every time, but more often than not. It does help to remove the nipple, wet it, and re-insert it into the ring, but this is a cumbersome, annoying operation for bottles that cost this much. And the leaking seems to get worse with age (our baby is a whopping five months old, and we have to use the nipple-wetting trick 1-2 times per feeding).
We have too much invested in these bottles to switch, but if we could send our past selves a message, we'd tell ourselves to choose a different brand. In the case of Avent bottles, you get the opposite of what your pay for.
 Buy Dr. Brown's instead July 1, 2010
T. Orth (Boise, ID USA)
Do not buy these bottles unless your babies can absorb formula through their skin. The lids leaked within just one week. Further, the bottles are not finely graded, so when you are trying to keep track of how much a newborn is eating, it's not very accurate. The leaking was the most annoying thing to deal with on top of everything else. I recommend Dr. Brown's starter set instead.
There should only be one way to screw on the lids--the right way June 28, 2010

I received this as gift but I will not buy more avent bottles. There should only be one way to screw on the lids--the right way. Yes, there are tricks to putting them on properly but who wants to mess with that at 3am in the dim lighting? And who wants to have to test whether the bottle is leaking over the sink before feeding to your crying baby? And who wants to teach other care providers the tricks to screwing the lids on properly which may or may not work all of the time? Bottom line is that there are better bottles out there. I like the avent nipples and brand but it doesn't seem too challenging or demanding to request a bottle that doesn't need tricks in order not to leak all over your child's outfit, your couch, your outfit and whatever else might be around.
I didn't receive the powder dispenser with my set. I don't think it was purchased from Amazon though. I bought it separately and really like it because it can be used as a snack dispenser later on. Also, I bought 2 more level 1 nipples since our baby gags on the level 2 medium flow nipples.
So we still use the avent bottles but I use all of my other bottles first. Since I'm breastfeeding and bottle feeding, I was looking for a bottle/nipple that would simulate the breast as much as possible. I just bought playtex ventaires (wide bottles with slow flow nipples) and I love them. They are more affordable and they have similar nipples to the avent bottles.
A Leaky Mess! June 16, 2010
Kim W. (North Tonawanda, NY)
These bottles are horrible and leak all the time! As first time parents we didn't know why our daughter was soaked after feeding until we realized that it was because the bottles leak. Even when you check to make sure and there is no sign of leaking, I've given a bottle to my daughter only to have it start leaking. There is nothing worse than listening to your child scream beacuse they are hungry, but you can't get their bottle to stop leaking. I switched over to the Platex bottles with the drop in liners and I'm so happy now (and so is my daughter!)Don't waste your money!
