We used the Tommee Tippee closer to nature ones for a while and really liked them. The teats are soft, but I wouldn't say too soft - I think it makes them easier to use, especially for smaller babies.
We switched to BPA-free bottles though, because we were worried about BPA. I really wish the Closer to Nature bottles would switch to BPA-free plastic.
I use avent and love them. I've only had a problem with them leaking a couple of times, and both times they weren't done up properly. I tried the Tomy ones but DD hated them.
its just so confusing! I always thought I would buy the advent ones then heard bad things then good things and now I just dont know!.
They are not cheap and I dont mind spending the money so long as they are going to be good. I guess I could always try them and keep the reciept??
Are the Advent ones BPA free?
thanks again all
just another question, when they talk about the airflex nipples with the advent is this different to the normal advent nipples or is this just what they call their brand? IYKWIM
Hi Krissy
I use the avent bottles too....from memory (sorry couldnt find any old packaging around) all the teats are "airflex". I usually buy teats from BigW or Coles and have never noticed ones that arent airflex.
We do have occassional dramas with leaks, but figured out the problem was DH would screw the top on as tight as he could....dont do this lol!! If he backs it off a little no leaks
Ive never tried DS with any other brand so I really cant offer advice on comparisons.
On thing I ony just discovered with Avent is you can get handles that will fit on any size of their bottles (no idea if other brands do this tho!)
Hope I helped and not confused you more lol
