Dr Browns Wide Neck Bottle Silicone Reviews Summary

Design and Usability

Pros:

• "First and foremost, the design of this bottle is fantastic."
• "It’s easy for him to grip and drink out of."
• "No leaks, he loves the handle and super comfortable for him to use."
• "It’s easy to wash and is very lightweight."
• "Perfect transition before converting to standard cups."
• "The handle is silicone and actually slides on and off with moderate ease."
• "One of the standout features is its design, which allows our little one to drink independently."

Cons:

• "Because of the shape I constantly have to reposition the nipple and cap to line up with the handles every time I put it on."
• "When it has milk in it and he tilts it up towards his mouth the handles just bend and he has to put a lot of extra effort in to get the milk to his mouth."
• "The handles always move and cover up the measurements, so we are constantly repositioning them."
• "The only flaw is when you put the top on it doesn't line up with the handles so you have to twist the handles round so there even with the nipple."
• "The handles come off so easily. Just slides off."
• "It’s really hard for me to align the sippy spout to the handles so it always ends up being where my daughter has a hard time drinking from it."
• "The handles move around a lot though but it’s easy to fix back."

Cleaning and Maintenance

Pros:

• "So much easier to clean then the Dr Browns bottles with the thousands of pieces."
• "Everything comes completely apart so they can be thoroughly cleaned."
• "In love with this they don’t leak at all, the flow just right and easy to clean my baby boy loves this truly recommend to all mamas out there."
• "Leak-proof, easy to clean and hold."
• "The wide-neck design makes it incredibly easy to clean."
• "The product is super easy to clean."
• "Great quality bottle, cleans well, doesn’t leak."

Cons:

• "However, the bottles do get cloudy after several uses."
• "Really good size and easy to work with for toddlers. Only negative thing is that it’s super hard to clean the bottom of the bottles."
• "The second con is that it is a pain to get the corners of the spout. Even with a bottle brush, it is difficult to get all the way in there."
• "I also didn't like pulling the handles on and off."
• "I might have given this 5 stars if it weren't for the impossible packaging. It took me 20 minutes, a knife and strong scissors to break through the form-fitting clamshell."
• "The only thing that SUCKS is the packaging?!! It’s like trying to get into an emergency Plan B box..."
• "When I received the box it looked opened and the individual bags the bottles come in was also ripped apart, the bottle nipple had some nasty old drink crusted on to it."

Leakage and Durability

Pros:

• "No leaks and no issues."
• "Also there is no leakage! None at all."
• "I am a big fan of Dr.Brown, I enjoy there products and these are no exception. 100% leak proof."
• "They don't leak which I really liked."
• "Doesn’t leak."
• "Does NOT leak, and has very grippy handles so babies can practice holding their own drink!"
• "They don’t leak when the bottle is shaken around and held upside down but baby is able to get milk out without frustration!"

Cons:

• "But, unfortunately it does leak."
• "These leak and I'm disappointed."
• "They work great, but they do leak from the top from time to time."
• "Whether the nipple hole is too big or the shape of the nipple (flat, square) or the vent hole, I'm honestly not sure but this bottle/sippy is NOT leakproof."
• "The bottle itself is rather large, which is good however, it leaks out the teet despite being advertised as non leak, no drip etc."
• "My toddler (15m) wasn’t the biggest fan just because he so used to the bottle and likes to lay down while he drink his milk so with this one it would leak like crazy."
• "The only thing is it’s a little bit live poof I feel like if it’s upside down for a long period of time."
