Works Great, Saves Time!
I had a sterilizer bag at first which I used while doing mixed feeding methods for my baby, then when I decides to completely bottle feed, I realized I needed to invest in a sterilizer for my own sanity. A sterilizer can be so expensive, especially from name brands but this one came in at a great price. I got it while on sale and am so glad I went with this one. It is really easy to assemble and use.It comes with a lid that has a warning sticker on it for safety, important because if you do the sterilizer only option, when it finishes it is very very hot from the steam. The lid is easy to put on and remove, but also seals the moisture in very well, directing all of the steam to the vents on the sides.There is an accessories tray that can be deeper if using 4oz bottles in the base, or flipped to be more shallow so that you can fit 8oz bottles and larger items. The pictures shown are with an 8oz bottle. The base of the sterilizer can fit A LOT. I've fit 8 8oz bottles in there at a time, as well as my formula pitcher and it's not even a tight squeeze.The heating plate is easy to access, and easy to clean. I highly recommend using distilled water, while it's not "required" it keeps you from having to descale the plate every time and helps there to be less residue on everything which will increase the lifespan of your bottles and the sterilizer. I tried it with tap water first and it just wasn't worth the extra effort.The quality is great, it really feels like it will hold up for a long period of time. Assembly is easy, each piece just stacks onto each other. Heating plate first, then the base, accessories tray, and lid.I use this on the sterilize only setting the most often and it does leave everything pretty wet, so keep that in mind. If you don't want to air dry or spend time drying, definitely use the auto cycle. If I could add something to this to make it better, I would add some kind of sticks in the base to support the bottles. Having them freestanding isn't a deal-breaker for me but they are easy to knock over.

It broke after 7 months..
**Updated 5/14/25Changed my review from a 1 to 5 star. Customer service finally emailed me back and said they were sending a new one. I got the new one in the mail three days later and works great! It did take a week or so for them to respond but they were quick to fix the problem after they finally emailed me.It is a really great product and makes cleaning bottles and pump parts so much easier!""Old review May 2, 2025I wouldn't buy this again. It broke after only 7 months of using. And trying to get ahold of customer support has been crickets. Definitely don't recommend.

I use it everyday, multiple times a day:Pros- it sanitizes and stores bottles.I always just press start and auto mode sanitizes and dries.Makes life a bit easier especially if you rinse bottles right after use then u can simply use this without having to really wash anything by hand.Cons: even with baby water (I never used sink water) the bottom gets gross. You have to wipe out the hot plate often and add water every cleaning.With the paplopic washing tablets the bottom gets even worse I mean brown and yellow burnt muck I highly suggest using only water.Takes a while to go thru a whole cycle but for me it’s fine since I keep my pump parts in the fridge to reuse.This is my 3rd baby, I’m 26 and this is my first sanitizer/auto bottle washer and honestly I love it even thru the cons.

It’s worth it
I love this product. It sanitizes bottles and dries them at the same time. You don't need to do anything. It's a huge help for moms in a pinch

Great sterilizer, Dryer function for the win!
Getting a bottle sterilizer with a dryer is a MUST. Holy cow, I had no idea how amazing the dryer function would be. I highly recommend, our unit works very well.

Honest review from a daily user- pros and cons
I have been using this sterilizer for about 3 weeks now and I use it about 3x a day. I wanted to give a honest review for anyone who is looking for the pros and cons of this sterilizer. I am going to first start off by saying this is for the standard sterilizer, not the Pro version. With that being said let’s get into the things I liked.PROS- definitely saves time opposed to boiling or using bag sterilizers.- it is very quiet and even standing next to it you barely hear it- it dries completely on either the 45 or 65 minute cycle (options shown in photo). Either cycle has proven to dry without leaving very many of any water spots on items.- it is easy to use- it fits under the cabinets if your looking to store it out of the way.Now for the cons.CONS- the most annoying thing I deal with is oil/grease residue. I exclusively pump, so my breast milk forms fat layers in the bottles. Even if I wash them with a brand new brush, an over abundance of dawn dish soap, scalding hot water, and hand dry them, there seems to still be a 50/50 chance those bottles which STORED my milk comes out with grease/oil residue on it. The regular bottles I use for feeding and everything else comes out perfectly clean. I am not sure what is causing this. I don’t have this issue with bag sterilizers.- this version (the standard) is smaller than expected. I am able to cram my bottles and pump parts in but honestly the PRO version would be best if you use a lot of parts. It would be worth the extra money to have the extra space in my opinion. You can see in the photos I have attached what it looks like fully loaded with my bottle and pump parts.- doctor brown bottles are too tall to fit if you sit them on the spots made for the bottles. However, if you sit them just below that, then you are able to fit them in and close the lid. This is better explained in the photos I have attached.IMPORTANT NOTE- RUST ISSUEWhen reviewing this product for myself I seen A LOT of reviews saying that they dealt with rust forming in the first few days or weeks of use. I personally have not had this issue yet. I have had a tiny itty bitty piece of rust that formed and I literally scrapped it off with my nail and it hasn't came back yet. I use only distilled water in the sterilizer. I think one big mistake that people are doing who are using distilled water and are still running into a rust issue is not shaking off their bottles before putting them straight in the sterilizer. The purpose of distilled water is to keep minerals from the tap water from causing rust. But if your not shaking off excess water from washing parts in the sink before putting them in the sterilizer and that tap water drips down onto the hot plate, then your just adding mineral water to the distilled water and it is counterproductive. I have always been mindful of this and have shook off excess water before placing parts inside the sterilizer and I have never had a rust issue. The directions also state that rust or lime scale buildup is possible and what to do to avoid it (shown in photos). I feel like people do not read the full instructions and are shocked when rust forms and thinks the product is faulty.Overall I give this a 4/5 stars. It is great for the price and if you’re going to be washing your bottle/pump parts regularly then it is perfect. However, if you let your parts pile up before you wash them you definitely need to invest in the PRO version for the additional space. I hope my review answers questions you may have had. I really wanted to make a honest review and took a lot of time taking notes as I have used this sterilizer.
