Great Bottle Set
on January 25, 2023
Posted by: Omisok
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When my first son was born I used the Phillips avent bottles, but switched to a narrower bottle and nipple after struggling with feeding issues— my son had a lip and tongue tie.
My second son was born this past May (2022) and was a completely different experience. He likes to exclusively breast feed and I have struggled with introducing a bottle. I received the Phillips Avent bottle and natural response nipple set from the Steller Product Testing Panel and decided to give them a go — and my son took right to them!

There are a couple things I love about the bottles— first off, they are glass making them easy to clean and ultimately look more sanitary then the plastic ones after a few uses.
Secondly, less parts to clean and keep track of! These bottles come with 4 parts and that is including a cap. My other bottles have 6 because of the anti colic vent inside that has to be dismantled and cleaned. 7 if you count the little disk that keeps the bottle from spilling. This leads me to the third plus about these bottles being that they have an anti leak nipple so no disk needed!

As for the nipples, my son usually needs a lot of coaxing to latch and take a bottle. He will repeatedly detach and try to root. When I introduced the bottle he had no problem latching or staying latched. He appeared comfortable and remained latched for his full feeding. I am definitely looking forward to the freedom these bottles will provide me with other family members being able to take part in feeding him!
The only thing I will say is that the glass bottle is a little heavier and I would worry about it being flung if he tries to feed himself but, overall there are so many positives about this set. I would highly recommend and will definitely not be using anything else.

Nice bottle design
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: Shabba
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was easy for my baby to take this bottle BUT she refuses to drink milk in it, only water, I'm not sure why but babies are always doing unexplainable things lol.
She has an easy time drinking out of this bottle and the nipple seems very flexible and comfortable for her, there were no issues.
This bottle is also very easy to clean and reassemble but also, unlike plastic, because it's glass it will never change colour and I love that.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bottle set!

Happy Baby Happy Mom Great Bottle
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: Smueller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It is seriously a great bottle. From the wide mouth for ease of filling to the high quality with it being glass, the ease to wash, it is all around a great choice.
My mostly breastfed son HATES taking bottles. We have tried numerous types and this bottle is the first he really loves. The nipple is nice and soft and I think he really loves the mouth feel because he sometimes won't even be drinking his milk, but just holding the nipple in his mouth.
There are four parts to each bottle, the bottle itself which is a really nice quality and design, it's really easy for small hands to hold onto themselves. Then you have your ring for the nipple, and the nipple - these come apart really easily in order to get a great clean and secure feel once on the bottle. Finally, you have the cap. It goes on well, my only con to the cap, make sure your hands are dry or else it can be slippery to pop off.
Overall, this bottle and nipple are great.

We don't currently have colic or gas issues, but I can see how this style would be great for those problems.
The nipple being so soft and malleable must make it very comparable to nursing as I have tried dozens of nipples for my son and that have all been either too rigid, or he can find a way to make a mess with the bottle themselves (pulling the nipple out or pushing it in)... He tries to make a mess with this one, but fortunately for us both, he hasn't been able to.
I would absolutely recommend this product to any moms, breastmilk or formula feeding who are looking for a great quality, easy to wash, easy to fill bottle! Something that any baby is likely to have a good time using. I have since recommended to my nephew and he is loving his bottles too!
It is a perfect fit for any diaper bag bottle pocket too, so very portable! I thought I would be nervous toting glass around, but it is so durable and I love that it is a better fit for environmental consciousness.
The printing is easy to read on the bottle and easy to tell how many ounces you've added too which is definitely a necessity for those tracking feedings.

Easy transition between breast and bottle nipple
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: Alias07
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try the natural response bottle nipples that I received from Stellar Product Testing Panel as my toddler has been drinking her milk from a bottle since she was 10 months old. First, I love that it's a glass bottle and not plastic, which puts my mind at ease. Second, the natural response bottle made the transition from breast to bottle nipple a lot easier. My little one took the bottle with ease as the bottle nipple is quite similar to the shape of the breast nipple. There is also a natural pause between each sip so she was not swallowing air and having any gas issues, which is the main issue with some other bottles. I also have never experienced any problems with the bottle leaking. I also have a newborn that is exclusively breastfed for now and will be using the same Avent bottle and nipples once baby is able to drink milk.

First time trying glass bottle
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: Wolverine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have an older baby who is fussy with bottles and is mostly breastfed. I was worried a glass bottle would be heavy, I thought the design of this bottle worked well for my baby as it was not heavy. My baby took to this bottle and the wide shaped nipple fortunately. The nipple has a natural appearance and well made. While observing my baby breathing I was happy to see he was able to pause comfortably and swallow while drinking. My baby did not have any gas issues after using this bottle and nipple. I had no problems with cleaning the bottle and nipple as it was easy and quick. The no drip nipple is good to not let any milk go to waste but the only downside was I always check the temperature of the milk by putting some on the back of my hand and because it doesn’t drip out at all unless baby sucks, it was near impossible to get the milk out. I squeezed with my finger on the tip to get a little out, but obviously I felt it was not sanitary to do that. So instead, I am just using a straw to get some out to test on my hand before closing the bottle with the nipple. I think it’s worth that extra step to use this bottle and nipple, especially because assembling the bottle is super easy and fast. Overall, great glass bottle and nipple.

Perfect size and ergonomics just a little weighty
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: MannyNtheMrs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full disclosure, I received these bottles as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
My 7 month old son is mostly breastfed, however, when mum needs a well deserved break he will take a bottle. He generally drinks anywhere from 5 to 7 oz of milk in one sitting. The Phillips Avent 4 oz bottles we currently use force me to either slightly overfill or do his feed in two sessions with a short break while I refill his bottle. And yes, you guessed it, he does not enjoy that.
The switch to a 8oz bottle was a great transition as he can now enjoy the full “serving” in one sitting. The shape of the bottle helped him handle it and hold it himself as the center of the bottle tapers in for a natural hold.
The nipples that came with the bottle were ‘size 3’ and it seemed that my son, who had previously used ‘size 4’ before, did not notice the difference.
The weight of the bottle made me a little bit nervous as my son does not yet have full control of his motor skills. I definitely caught myself hovering my hands around the bottle, ready to catch it, as he was drinking.
My son has used the Philips Natural Response nipples before and took to this nipple without issue. He quite happily sucks back milk and finished his 6 oz with little to no breaks. When my wife breastfeeds him he will often pull off and take breaks which did not seem to be the case with this nipple.
In the hospital I learned that if my son does not form a good seal with his lips that I can just turn the bottle slightly back and forth and it naturally sets his lips on the nipple completely. Usually this leaves a bit of a gap because of where the nipple fits into the plastic screw-on lid. The size/width of the nipple ensured a proper seal and did not cause my son to have to re-latch as he usually does.
It’s only been a few days but overall, I appreciate the size and ergonomics of this bottle. I don’t know if I would necessarily pack this in our diaper bag due to its weight and fear of it falling and hurting my son in some way (probably not an issue but my anxiety can get the best of me sometimes!) However, this bottle will stay home and will be the main bottle I’ll use for the daytime feeds.

Breastfed baby approved
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: C410
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 7 month old breastfed baby took to this bottle right away. The wide base made it easy for baby to transition from breast to bottle, even in the same feeding session. The Natural Response nipple helped to regulate the flow of milk, and kept the feed mess-free - especially important since teething pain is causing baby to unlatch numerous times while eating! While the glass bottles looked and felt classy, the heavier weight (compared to plastic) made the bottles difficult for baby to hold herself. This was my first time using glass bottles and while I would definitely recommend the Natural Response nipples, I’ll stick with plastic bottles. I couldn’t give this product 5 stars because of my preference for plastic bottles, but I LOVED the responsive nipples and wish I would have had them 2 years ago with my first baby!
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this bottle set, and introducing me to the innovative design.

Great for breastfed babies
on January 27, 2023
Posted by: Jimi
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a set of Philips Avent Glass Natural Baby Bottle With Natural Response Nipple from Stellar Product Testing Panel and my baby loves it. My baby is 17 months old and still breastfeeding and using bottles when I'm at work. My problem with other nipples is that they leak and drip when my baby plays while feeding and I end up wiping everywhere, but the natural response nipple solved that problem, no drip anymore. Since the nipple design mimics the breast my baby can breathe and he's very comfortable using it. I was thinking since it was glass it will be heavy but it's light and my baby can hold it without problem. I love that it is so easy to clean and it fits perfectly in my diaper bag.
