The new nipples are horrible
on February 5, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
The new nipples are so difficult to get any milk out of they are actually not usable at all for us. Fix this please! I’m so upset
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from philips.comBy Philips Consumer Care, February 8, 2022
Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us regarding the new Avent Natural Response Nipples. We are sorry to hear of your upsetting experience and hope we can help improve things for you! The Philips Avent Natural Response Nipple only releases milk when your little one actively drinks, in the same way the breast does. When your baby pauses to swallow or breathe, the milk flow pauses too, while suckling allows the milk to flow easily. In this way your baby is in control and comfortable throughout the whole feed. Keep in mind that it can take a few attempts for your baby to adjust from a traditional nipple to the Natural Response Nipple and realize they can use the same pattern they use with breastfeeding when bottle feeding too. If you used the previous Natural nipple, your baby may need higher nipple flows with the Natural Response Nipple because they are used to more milk flowing quickly with less effort.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with our dedicated Avent Parent and Child Care team on 1-800-542-8368. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further.
Hope to speak to you soon!
Kind regards,
Philips Consumer Care

Not my favorite
on July 18, 2021
Posted by: Perez19
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this baby bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was looking forward to trying out these new bottles as my daughter was transitioning to formula. I loved the look, the wide nipple and soft feeling had me excited, unfortunately, my daughter didn’t like these bottles. It would take her twice as long to finish her bottle in comparison to our other bottles. I like that the bottles don’t leak, but even with a size 2 nipple, she was working hard to get the milk out, and was over it pretty quickly (her other bottles were only size 1, very strange). Overall, I like the look of the bottle, but they did not work well for us.

Baby refusing bottle with new nipple design
on February 1, 2022
Posted by: CKIP
My daughter was seamlessly switching between breast and bottle with the old style natural nipples since birth. Now that she is bottle fed only at 7 months, I bought a new set without realizing the nipples had changed. With the new design, she refuses the bottle altogether -- I've tried giving it to her for over a week and at different times with no success. When I switch to the old nipples, she drinks right away. The new bottles are more rigid and don't even feel like the old nipples. Very disappointed in the new design and even more disappointed that Philips doesn't even make the old nipples available for purchase at all. I wish they would at least offer the old style to purchase separately.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
Thanks for leaving a review regarding the new Avent Natural Response Nipples. We are sorry to hear that your daughter is still refusing the new design and can understand that this must be disappointing. The Natural Response Nipple has an innovative tip and opening which responds to the drinking motion of the baby’s tongue. This causes the slit to open and close, so milk is released only when baby is actively drinking, like at the breast. The flow rate of milk they get from the nipple is linked to how enthusiastically or steadily they drink as they develop. Enthusiastic drinkers use a strong suction and compression while drinking, resulting in greater milk flow, so they usually need a lower nipple flow from the Natural Response range (such as nipple number 1 or 2) to avoid overflow. Slow and steady drinkers are likely to prefer a higher nipple flow (such as nipple 4 or 5), to ensure enough milk flows, regardless of age. You can find useful information on this FAQ : https://www.usa.philips.com/c-f/XC000020708/tips-for-switching-from-our-previous-natural-bottle-range-to-our-new-natural-response-nipple

perfect for babies going between breast and bottle
on July 21, 2021
Posted by: mamakayt
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve actually been using this kind for the last 4 years, just not these specific ones so we are happy to give our opinion since we have lots of experience with them. These were the first bottle nipples we tried with all our kids & all of them have taken them with zero issues at all.
These bottles were easy for each baby to take, they never had any problems with rejecting them or switching back and forth between breast & bottles.
They are supper simple to assemble with only 3 pieces + a travel cap if you need it. Cleaning is very simple as well. We have washed by hand and dishwasher. I do appreciate that they are very simple to clean by hand if needed in a pinch.
The shape of the bottle nipple seems very similar to mama’s & comes in a variety of flows to find what works for your baby. Our kids seemed to prefer the flow 1.
The ergonomic shape made it easy for our babies to hold once they got old enough to hold themselves.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby bottle set.

Best bottles I have tried
on July 18, 2021
Posted by: KateB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been using a different brand of bottles with my 4 month old when I received this bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
Let me tell you it was mom life changing! My little one loved the new bottle and can even hold it herself sometimes. The bottles are super easy to use, assemble and clean. The wide mouth of the bottle makes it convenient to scoop in formula and it doesn't leak (both flaws with the other bottle I was previously using). My baby took to the new bottle and nipple immediately and is drinking so much better than before, not as fussy and not as gassy!! This is a winner in my book and I highly recommend.

Great bottle for babies who also breastfeed
on December 17, 2022
Posted by: Lahra
[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 and I love it!
Initially, I was a little concerned my son wouldn’t take the bottle, as it was drastically different from the one he was previously using when he was not breastfeeding; we originally had some problems getting him to take the other bottle. My worries were gone the moment I gave him the Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle With Natural Response Nipple for the first time, he just loved it!
I believe that the nipple’s wide shape and on-demand flow make all the difference as it resembles more to my breasts. He’s had no problem switching between bottle and breast. My son likes to hold the bottle sometimes and the no-drip tip has been a lifesaver as I don’t have to be cleaning spilled milk every time he decides to shake it or he drops it. We also have not had any issues with gas or spit-ups and the fact that it is BPA-free gives me peace of mind.
An issue my son was having with other bottles was that they were free-flow and he would sometimes get too much milk at once and would end up spilling it or choking. My son can get the correct pace of milk flow when feeding with this bottle as he does with the breast. My son is 6 months old but we are currently using the 3m+ nipple flow instead of a 6m+ and it is working fine for now as he is not getting fussy about the flow; I am looking forward to trying a faster flow as I sometimes think he takes a bit long to drink the bottle.
Cleaning this bottle is super easy; it only has 4 parts (counting the bottle cap). The bottle opening is wide enough that most cleaning brushes fit without issues. Assembly is also easy too, it takes virtually no time to put it together. The ergonomic shape of the bottle makes it comfortable to hold for both me and my baby.
I recommend this bottle for parents that look to switch between breast and bottle. It has worked wonders for us!

Great baby bottles with wide range of flow
on April 6, 2023
Posted by: AnnaR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried quite a few different bottles as a mom of 3, these Philips Avent Natural Response are now our favorite and what we’re sticking to! My baby can control the flow, no worries about taking in too much air, and if baby leaves the bottle lying around, no worries about milk spilling. I am impressed with their performance. The nipples are designed to mimic the natural flow of breastmilk, the nipples are also made from a soft, flexible silicone material that feels comfortable for my daughter and allows her to latch on easily. One of the things I appreciate most about these nipples is the wide range of flow rates available. These nipples make it easy to adjust as my daughter grows and her feeding habits change. They also have an anti-colic design which helps reduce gas and fussiness during feedings. We love them! Thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing these bottles and nipple set for us to try!

Easy baby bottles
on April 18, 2022
Posted by: MommaMel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to try out the Philips Avent Natural Bottles. Overall they have a great design. I really like the 9 oz size. I especially like the lesser amount of pieces. They are super easy to clean! They have no small pieces that require special cleaning brushes. My son does have a cleft palate and a very weak suck. He did have trouble getting any formula. My son requires a longer nipple. I think these would work for great for babies who breastfeed and bottle feed. I do like that they came in the color blue. I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
