Product Information

In the hazy days with a new baby, keeping them safe is the number one priority – and also likely to be the biggest source of anxiety for parents. A steriliser can be used to kill bacteria found on lots of different baby feeding equipment like baby bottles, teats and breast pump parts. But which is the best steriliser to make your feeding schedules easier to juggle? After our latest intensive round of testing, we’ve got all the information you’ll need about our favourites. Can only sterilise two bottles per cycle – so if you’re getting through more than four bottles a day it’s fairly labour-intensive

It is important to note that different microwaves may vary in power, so it is crucial to follow the specific instructions provided by the bottle manufacturer. Additionally, ensure that the container used for sterilization is microwave-safe and that it fits properly within the microwave. The patented vented base of the MAM Baby Easy Start Anti Colic bottle ensures that babies can drink calmly and relaxed. The ventilation holes in the base regulate the pressure balance and airflow and as the bottle ventilates via the bottom, milk flows undisturbed without air bubbles. This allows feeding with no interruptions which helps to reduce colic in 80% of cases**.

This is also the ideal baby bottle for an easy switch between breast and bottle, thanks to the patented SkinSoft™ teat which is silky soft and provides a familiar feel for babies. Market research confirmed that 94% of babies accepted the teat* making it perfect for when mum wants to be a bit more flexible. What is Colic? Colic causes are common when a baby swallows too much air during the feeding process. If your baby seems unsettled after their feeds, our anti-colic baby feeding bottles reduces baby colic by up to 80%**. The MAM Easy Start Anti-Colic bottles feature a vented base to reduce the air intake during feeds. Therefore, it is recommended to use a gentle cycle and a mild detergent to ensure the bottles remain in good condition. Dishwasher Settings for Mam Bottles One of the unique features of MAM bottles is their patented valve, which ensures that the bottles remain leak-tight even when they are being used by babies.

Made for Mums judge, Melanie said "Self-sterilisation is a good feature, and it's worth the money. Best-looking bottle on the market and great for sterilising on the go." Use a gentle dishwasher cycle: Use a gentle dishwasher cycle to prevent the bottles from getting damaged. Avoid using high-temperature settings or harsh detergents that may cause the bottles to discolour or warp.Now that you’ve successfully disassembled the Mam bottles and separated the parts for sterilization, you can proceed to sterilize them using your electric sterilizer. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for the specific sterilization time and procedure for your particular electric sterilizer model. It’s best to use sterile tongs to handle teats afterwards to prevent contamination, and the majority of sterilisers come with a pair – put the tongs in with the cycle and you know they’re OK to use. I have the Nuby UV one and I love it. I wash the bottles and let them air dry and then put them in there dry for three minutes and it's done! If you're formula feeding Nuby had a sale on their UV steriliser and Rapidcool (can make milk to NHS recommendations and they be cool in 3/4 minutes) bundle." Loved by Mumsnetter Grace185 Our verdict Although you can self-sterilise your MAM bottles in the microwave, using a dedicated microwave steriliser is an even easier way to make the most of your microwave. MAM themselves offer their very own kit and depending upon the bottle size, you can either sterilise 4 large or 6 small MAM bottles at once. Tommee Tippee has put a great deal of thought into the redesign of their electric steam steriliser and it really shows. The Tommee Tippee Super-Steam Advanced Electric Steriliser is made from tough BPA-free plastics and is exceptionally straightforward to use, with plenty of room for bottles and breast pump parts over two tiers.
