Oh how I’m torn with these bottles..!!Advantages-Amazing latch.After trying our existing TT bottles, our new baby was struggling with them- typical, but she found these much easier. She actually refused the TT bottles and barely ate so we had to come up with something QUICK!My best advice as a mum of 2- don’t assume that your choice is what your baby will go with! Don’t invest in *anything* until you know its right!! That goes for bottles/wipes/nappies/dummies...They come apart for ‘easy’ cleaning.Personally I find it a pain putting them together when making a bottle. Ideally you would put them together so they’re ready to use but trust me it doesn’t always work out like that,especially with a 2yo and a new baby.Ok you can clean them ‘really well’ but I preferred the TT bottles for this.They are self sterilising.I did it a bit at the beginning but with 4 bottles on the go and a very hungry baby, its just a better idea to do them in one go in a steam steriliser. (We bought an extra single bottle just cos)They have those holes for anti-colic.I’d like to think this has helped my baby not get colic but that’s debatable.DisadvantagesYou can’t warm/cool the bottle/contents in a normal way. I find this SO annoying as with a TT bottle you can just pop it in water; easy as pie.I don’t particularly like the look of these bottles. I don’t like much about them but thelittle characters are cute I suppose..~Something you wouldn’t ever realise until you use them.. when you put them together fresh from sterilising, you make the formula up but when you shake the bottle; you get showered with steam water from the bottom where the holes are. Very very annoying and I find I have to press the bottle into a muslin cloth to get the excess water, urgh.Would I recommend these bottles?For the excellent and what looks like a comfortable latch, definitely. My baby’s hardly sickly but that might be the formula (C&G)I loved the TT bottles in every way, but fortunately we found these and my baby gets on well with them!Thanks for reading :)

We were previously using Tommee Tippee advanced comfort closer to nature bottles and teats, initially baby was doing fine but as he reached 6 weeks it was like he had been replaced by a nightmare baby! My poor boy struggled and cried with trapped wind and colic for days. I'd tried changing teats from 2 (he was on the thicker comfort milk hence no 2s) to the variflow, back to 1s and 2s again with infacol, gripe water (which I didn't want to pump into him) and to no avail. Got a voucher from Boots for a free little MAM bottle (which has their number 1 teat attached) and instantly noticed a difference. So I bought this 3 pack. What I noticed was that compared to the very round O shape of the TT teats,these teats are more oval shaped and LOADS softer and more pliable. This meant that my baby could form a 'seal' around the teat with his mouth rather than having two gaps on either side which had ultimately allowed him to take lots of air onboard. While the TT teats have one vent in them, these bottles are vented all round the bottom. As he sucks (hard!), the air draws in through the bottom of the bottle to balance the pressure. Combine these two factors and I've now got an almost silently drinking baby. I've kept him on the number 1 teats to slow him down as he's a guzzler which didn't help too. Less wind in means half the winding time and a baby who smiles more than he cries! BINGO. As for the leakage issue people mention, if you sterilise by the instructions, making sure the seal is resting on the base when sterilising, the seal doesn't get damaged. Once out the microwave, take the seal back out to remove any trapped water between that and the base and hey presto! No leakage. My baby is now 10 weeks old and these bottles have absolutely revolutionised our little family in the last two weeks. I can't recommend them enough!

The self-sterilisation feature is just genius, all you need is a microwave. no extra equipment like electric steamers or Milton tablets so yeah the value for money thing is a given. I prefer these to Tommee tippee, NUK, and ASDA all of which I've tried before.Only one improvement I would make is that after 11 months of use the teats have discoloured, but that generally happens with most brands. My baby was small so we are still on flow 1 at night and 2 in the day.One tip for using these bottles, a couple of times powdered milk got stuck in the teat so the milk couldn't flow. My little one started to fuss over her milk right at the start and then cried and it was only from previous experience I thought to even check the milk was flowing.It's so easy after months of the bottles working no problem to not think to check the teat. This only happens when Baby is older as the milk gets trapped in the teat when you are using 210ml of milk as it's so much higher up the bottle to start with. So by this time in her life, rightly or wrongly, I'm quite comfortable cleaning dummies by sucking them myself, so I take the bottle, suck really hard to clear the hole and ensure the flow is constant again. Bingo. This has happened quite a few times.My baby never suffered from colic, but that might not be down to these bottles we will never know. However, she was very windy as a newborn. I googled it and read up that Aptamil had changed their recipe in recent years, so whereas my first two were great on it, it could be attributed to her wind. Also by not shaking the bottle vigorously up and down that causes loads of froth also helps. So, I changed to Aldi milk and started to swirl the milk round to mix rather than vertically (this also helps with the milk powder not getting stuck in the teat) and her wind went overnight, amazing.

I love these bottles. I used to buy the Avent ones for my firstborn but was frustrated that they leaked everywhere (typically at 4am or some other antisocial time!) and so - with son number two - thought I would change brand. The design on the bottles is sweet and the measurements are easy to see. Assembly takes a little getting used to but I do it like this: follow the instructions to assemble, heat in the microwave, leave to cool a little bit, empty out as much water as possible before taking apart, shake out excess droplets as you go, screw together tightly and hey presto! Obviously, shake to mix the formula over the sink and - to relieve the pressure in the bottles from the steam - take off the lid for a few seconds.The times that the bottles have leaked have been at the point of assembly and have been my error, in that I didn't tighten the base sufficiently. It's been brilliant not to have to worry about a separate steriliser; in fact, I don't think I've used it at all this time around, as for things like dummies etc I use steriliser bags instead and I love that you can transport the clean bottles to friends' houses and make up from scratch that way. Once assembled, the bottles (without formula or breastmilk) stay sterile for 24 hours, which is useful when out and about. The only aspect of which I am unsure is in immersing the bottle in hot water to warm milk but, as I make my son's feeds from scratch, this isn't a problem; when I was expressing, I ensured that his breastmilk had been warmed in its original container before transferring to the sterilised Mam bottle. I'm delighted with this purchase and will be buying more.

We thought our baby was suffering with colic so replaced our tommee tippee bottles with these.... didn’t seem to help BUT that’s because it transpired my son had a soy intolerance so wasn’t colic after all.... That aside, I do like these bottles anyway.... I think the teet encourages better (wider) latch if you’re combination feeding like I was... my son was always happy to switch between mam bottle and nipple.....However, I have knocked a star off because I’m not sure you can warm them by placing in boiling water... reason being the bottom has holes in which lets the air out of the bottle... although there is a plastic seal between the base and the milk, it only slots in and I’m not confident that it couldn’t be compromised.If I was using formula I’d simply use the tommee tippee prep machine and make it in the bottle... if I was wanting to warm up expressed milk, I’d warm in a tommee tippee bottle and decant into mam bottle (but that’s more washing up!)Also, if you are combination feeding, unless your supply is great and fast flowing.... don’t make the mistake I did of switching to a size 2 teet just because size 2 teets say ‘2 months +’...... the flow is so much faster than my own flow and he started to refuse my boob during the day and opt for the easier faster flowing bottle..... I still fed him off the boob at night whilst he was sleepy and couldn’t tell the difference but never again during the day.

Fabulous, fabulous product. I breastfed for 5 months and was worried the transition from breast to bottle would take some tackling, especially as a dairy allergy meant my son had to go from breast to a special formula which tasted awful. He also had a late diagnosed tongue tie which was snipped at 11 weeks and bad reflux, so getting the right bottle was vital for us. I had read good reviews about MAM bottles, particularly the silk feel teats which mimicked the breast, so bought the three pack of bottles on a special offer, so even more value for money!) and hoped for the best. From the first feed, I was impressed with the design of the bottle, reducing wind during feeding and my son fed really well considering he'd never had a bottle before.Cleaning was brilliant as they dismantle fully allowing a thorough clean, and then stack up and self sterilise in the microwave in 3 minutes! What's not to love? I have since bought a further 3 bottles and have one at the grandparents and at a family friend's as they can keep and sterilise the bottle themselves whenever we visit/stay. I can't recommend this bottle highly enough, an un-used Doctor Brown bottle remains in my cupboard as I bought it the same time and have never had to use it. Heard good reviews about both but the sheer design and practicality of these MAM bottles, along with brilliant results reducing wind etc, put this ahead of DB (in my opinion).

Like most parents, I find winding to be a nightmare, especially when the majority of the times my baby wouldn't part with any wind what so ever. This usually leads to him refusing to drink any more from his bottle and a night feed which seems to last forever.We tried numerous bottles, Advent, Doctor browns and the cheaper alternatives found in Morrisons and Tesco but heard good things from our health visitor so decided to give the MAM self sterilising bottles a go too.My partner and I were very pleased with our purchase. Baby finds the bottles easier to drink from, the way the bottle releases air through the bottom as he drinks deffinately as a reduced effect on how much air he's taking in whilst feeding and he's passing wind a bit easier,which in turn makes feeding time a whole lot quicker.The self sterilising feature is also very convenient, we've found ourselves sterilising individual bottles this way when out at friends houses, all it requires is that you take a clean bottle with you and have water and a microwave handy for quick sterilisation.The only draw back I had with the bottles I purchased is that one of the three continuously leaked through the seal at the base of the bottle, this was easily rectified however by contacting MAMS which sent out a brand new bottle with a pre paid package to send the faulty one back.

I have a love hate relationship for the MAM self sterilising bottles but this is mainly my fault...i'll explain. If you correctly insert the teat into the holder and correctly screw on both top and bottom parts (very important!) they work fine. When its 3 am and your faffing with the different parts i wasn't as accurate as i should have been which meant formula going everywhere because i had either not popped up the teat correctly, not inserted the white part at the bottom which meant it leaked or i had cross threaded the bottom bit. Its really really simple to get it right i promise you this but tiredness and sleepless nights made it difficult .These are fantastic for being self sterilising as when your steriliser is full you can do these 3 minutes for 1 or add an additional minute for another bottle so say you have 5 MAM self sterilising bottles its 7 minutes . I would recommend these , the teats are great and my daughter who is mix fed breast and bottle takes to them with ease, ive found taking to other mums and health are professionals this is rare that she took to the bottle and breast so easily without problem so every child is different . You can hear when the bottles is being used the anti colic in action which means less air getting in causing less wind for your little one, less not none obviously.

I love the design and colour to these bottles! My favouritest yet.I first brought MAM bottles when my little one started to refuse tommee tippee bottles and would only take the breast at around 4 months old. Since buying a little one to test out we haven’t looked back and he’s a year old now. Every baby is different but these worked wonders for us and I absolutely love that you can sterilise these in the microwave instead of having to use a steriliser for just one bottle!UPDATE - Since I wrote the above review we have had another little one who also refused the bottle when weaning off the breast but this time this bottle was also refused.We got advised by the health visitor to try Asdas Little Angels bottles and teats as they have a high success rate when making the switch apparently which to our surprise worked wonders and our little one took to them. I however hated the design of the bottle as they didn't come apart like these so they never felt clean. After just a couple of days I thought I would see if the teats fitted into the mam bottles and they do!!! So now I am using these microwaveable Mam bottles but with the Asdas own teats. Amazing!These bottles will always be my favourite!

I have 12 of these bottles in total (so we can have one set in the dishwasher while using the other) and I love them. My daughter gets on with the teat really well (after struggling with Tommee Tippee) and the walls are so thick that they retain heat well. Sadly this does make it harder to cool the bottle down in a hurry, but we make ours with half boiling and half cooled boiled water that’s been stored in a sterilised container in the fridge, so thankfully it’s no longer a problem. They aren’t the easiest to clean (due to all the bits) but once you get into a routine it gets easier. Or do what I did (after 2 months!) and pop them in the dishwasher. I put all the bits in a dishwasher basket (specifically Clutch Baby Dishwasher Basket)which holds two bottle parts and then the main bottle bit goes straight in the dishwasher. I’ve done this for about a month now and they’re washing well. I always rinse before and after they’ve been washed and they’re always clean and haven’t faded. I don’t know if they improved my daughters colic or if it was the change in milk, but there’s far less bubbles in the bottle and you can hear the air escaping from the bottom and that has to help!

I bought these bottles when I was trying out various brands for my then 6 week old son. I had tried the Tommee Tippee ones, but they gave him terrible wind and he didn't get on with the Breastflow either. Used these and from the first time, he took to them straight away. The good points of these bottles are the different design, and the teat. My son took to these straight away and has never had any problems. The anti- colic feature seems to have worked too, as he is now 12 weeks, and no colic but this could be down to luck or the bottles.They are great bottles but on the downside, they are not perfect. They have a tendency to leak - Either when you make up the bottle, or when you go to use it,by shaking it. Quite often, the milk has leaked from the bottom. Also, because of the design of the anti colic holes being on the bottom of the bottle, you cannot put the bottle into a cup of hot water to warm up as water that is not sterilised then enters the bottle. It's also a bit of a palaver dismantling the whole thing.I think the Mam products are great and I will continue to use them but moving forward, I am going to use the bottles without the bottom screw on part.

We got these after our baby didn’t get on with TT bottles (which seems to be very common for new parents). After trying these we could immediately see a difference in how well our baby fed - the teat is perfect and we’ve had no issues with odd clicking sounds, milk not coming out or collapsing teats like in the other bottles we tried. We finally went from dreading feeds to loving them and getting to bond with our baby. The bottles are also great quality and I love their design.The bottles come with two huge flaws. The first one has the potential to be dangerous if parents are not made aware - if the teat and cap are left on the bottle whilst it’s cooling down in a bowl of cold water,the bottle will create a vacuum and leech in the water. This can dilute the formula which can be dangerous. I don’t feel like MAM warns parents about this sufficiently in the instructions which is incredibly irresponsible. The second flaw is simply the amount of parts that these bottles come with. I like that I can clean them thoroughly but 6 parts is a lot (especially at 3am) and if MAM offered bottles with the same teat but less parts, I’d buy them in a heartbeat.

MAM bottles are my favourite. The bottle can be dismantled into several pieces, which makes for easy cleaning, and ensuring you get in to all the nooks and crannies - there's nothing worse than old milk stuck to the bottle somewhere.A bottle that helps reduce colic is also a great idea too in my opinion. Colic not only makes your baby uncomfortable, but as a parent, it's a living nightmare for the first few months. It's good to see there are more bottle manufacturers taking the time to research ways of combating this, but MAM were at the forefront of this, and I'm grateful to them for that.Another great idea MAM had with these, is that each bottle can be self-sterilised in a microwave; there's no need to faf around with another type of steriliser.This is especially useful if you're out and about, or only need to prepare one or two bottles. Just rearrange the separate components of the bottle, fill the base with some water (use the lid for measurements), whack in the microwave for 3 minutes (more for more bottles), and hey presto!Overall, these are my go to bottles. I've not known a baby yet that hasn't taken to these well.

I do think these bottle have made quite a difference with my 6 week old girls feeding.I tried them instead of my previous bottles as she was very windy and did projective vomit at least once a day when feeding. This has now resolved and I feel sure it due this bottle. I will add, they do have their faults. (1) I might be being a bit picky but as others have said in reviews....they do seem to leak, this is mainly due to not putting the 'white washer' in correctly at the base. (2) The lids are very hard to get off with one hand.... (3) I would like to see the ml/ounce numbers better, when I am pouring water in, very light colour text on the 'frosted bottle' makes it tricky.....text would be better in black and bigger size.(4) teats...gosh... will be pricey to keep changing......over the next few months!So far I have managed with x3 bottles (x6 would be better to save time)... if I knew they would be as effective I maybe would have got the larger started pack.BUT overall, I cannot fault the bottle, just elements of the design and with most things a bit expensive!The results have been worth it!

We go some samples of the MAM self-sterilising anti-colic smaller bottles at a baby show. Having never heard of the make previously, we didn't think much of it. Firstly our little one does not like any of the other bottles we gave her but instantly accepted these. They fit really well in her mouth and we have now progressed from teat number 1 to number 2, as she was having to pull quite hard and work too much to get the milk as she got hungrier.The anti-colic valve in these is simple and effective meaning that the pressure within the bottle balance constantly and easily.One of the best things from a parental point of view is how simple these are to clean and sterilise. As they come apart completely,including the base. It means you don't need a bottle cleaner, as you can get to both ends easily. Then, one reassembles it in a slightly different order (instructions are in with them) and with 20ml of water, put it in the microwave and set it off for three minutes and it is sterilised. Reassemble again (careful it will be hot) and hey presto, all ready for the next feed. Brilliant.
