I love my Dr Browns bottle warmer. I know a lot of people say no to the bottle warmer and the sanitizer but they are god sends for me.
Loves it, calls it a 'god send'; highly upvoted (12); acknowledges skeptics but strong personal endorsement
Everyone's got valid points about the boiling water in a cup trick or other reasons it's not necessary. I agree but I also didn't care myself and was happy to spend $50 for a convenience boost. Dr Brown version is legit, heats up 2-3oz in a glass bottle much faster than the cheaper ones (2ish min vs 5+) which is a huge deal when your other hand has a screaming and hungry child. It also sanitizes (not super efficient only fitting a single bottle) so you have that available. I use glass Phill
Calls it 'legit'; cites specific speed (2-3oz in ~2 min vs 5+ for cheaper ones); notes $50 price, sanitizer function; practical positive with concrete comparisons
We use ours every time. Did with first kiddo too (I EP for first and now the second). Drop bottle in, hit button. Go change diaper, three minutes later good to go. Our kiddos have not responded well to cold milk though I know it works for some. Have given fresh milk at near room temp with no problem though. If you get a warmer I recommend completely draining it and washing water tank to prevent mold once a week (we have a doctor brown model).
Uses for 2 kids while exclusively pumping; describes workflow (drop in, hit button, 3 min during diaper change); provides maintenance tip (drain weekly to prevent mold)
I have the Dr. Browns bottle warmer and it's definitely worth it. $30 and takes about a minute to warm up the bottle to room temp from the fridge. But I'm not sure what bottles it works with, we use exclusively Dr. Browns.
Owns it, 'definitely worth it'; cites price ($30) and speed (~1 min from fridge); caveat about bottle compatibility unknown beyond Dr Browns brand
Ive used both the philips and dr browns. Philips is definitely the most basic option and is super easy, but I did like how the dr browns doubled as a sterilizer. I used that one more often.
Used both Philips and Dr Browns; preferred Dr Browns more often because it doubles as sterilizer; practical comparative positive
Honestly i just I take a bottle out of the fridge and put it on my bed side table (my baby doesn't sleep longer then 4 hours) and feed it room temp in the motn. During the day I use a bottle warmer. It takes 3 mins for 3.5oz at fridge temp in the dr browns. The plus side is if you have a bottle warmer you don't need to fill every time you just press the button… and refill the tank about once a day.
Specific timing (3 min for 3.5oz from fridge); describes convenience of water tank (press button, refill once/day); practical detailed review
100% yes to the bottle warmer! Like others commenting, we used Dr. Brown's and it is great. Just actually listen to the directions about not using tap water cuz it made ours gross.
Uses Dr Brown's and calls it 'great'; provides specific maintenance tip (don't use tap water or it gets gross); positive with practical caveat
I like our bottle warmer. We got the Dr. Brown one. We're Still using it and my sons almost 2. I just transfer it to a different cup for him now. It takes ~4 mins
Still using at almost 2 years old (extended durability); repurposed for toddler cups; takes ~4 min
I have Dr Brown bottle warmer, because I got the whole set with bottles. Anyway very easy to use, but bottle becomes too hot and I have to put in iced water to cool off a bit or wait. Also I hate that it develops a brown residues on the bottom and it's hard to clean. Honestly I started warming up bottles in a cup with a boiling water
Easy to use but bottle gets too hot, requires ice water to cool; hard-to-clean brown residue; abandoned it for hot water cup method
