Product Description

From the Manufacturer
Imagine if you don't have to wash or sterilize baby bottles or nipples anymore. Imagine the convenience of a disposable diaper but for baby bottles. Trusted by UK parents since 2000, Steri-bottle is the safe and simple way to feed your baby anytime, at home, or on the move. Steri-bottle is 100% BPA-free and phthalate-free, and is 100% recyclable. Steri-bottle is designed with care in the U.K. and made with pride in the USA. Each package contains 5 or 10 complete bottles and nipples. Steri-bottle is pre-sterilized and ready to use out of the box because the bottles and nipples are manufactured at high heat in a clean-room facility in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. No human hands touch the sterile bottles and nipples - the manufacturing and packaging process is automated. Use Steri-bottle when traveling. You used to pack an extra bag with clean bottles, nipples, brushes, and maybe even a sterilizing kit. You used to stay up late washing bottles when everyone else was asleep. Now, just open the Steri-bottle package, remove one pre-sterilized bottle and nipple. They're ready to use. Fill the bottle, warm it up, close the lid, and feed your child. When you're done, you can recycle the entire Steri-bottle. Use Steri-bottle at home. It's 3 a.m. – it's time for a routine feed. Suddenly, you realize that there are no sterilized bottles in the cupboard. And you have to be at work in the morning and desperately want a few more minutes of sleep. There's no need to spend up to 10 minutes or more washing used bottles while half-asleep. Now you can just reach for a Steri-bottle. Open the box, take out a pre-sterilized bottle and nipple. Fill, close, and feed. This has taken you 10-15 seconds. Steri-bottle has been feeding babies and saving U.K. Moms and dads thousands and thousands of hours of bottle washing and sterilizing. When you can enjoy a few more moments, or go back to sleep faster, you will see why we say that Steri-bottle saves you time and more.

Customer Reviews

While these bottles appear to function well, there are a handful of reasons I rated them only three stars.
1. They are pricey. At about $1 each (if buying a 10 pack), someone could buy a standard Gerber bottle and thow it away when finished OR reuse it if s/he chose to.
2. They are absolutely one time use. Once the lid is snapped on, it is on for good. If you try to pry it off, the lip of the bottle breaks (that is if you don't break your finger first). There is no putting water in these and adding powder formula later. When the lid is on, it is on.
3. I found that the valve that is supposed to let air in to eliminate colic, didn't function at all.
4. The nipple is very fast flow so it wouldn't be appropriate for a small baby or one that needed a slower flow.
5. They are recyclable, but they are a number 5 which (at least where I live) isn't allowed to go in curb side recycling. I'm sure this will vary with different recycling programs.
That said, there are a few good things about the bottles.
1. They are BPA free.
2. When I took the first one out of the package I thought there was no way that bottle wouldn't leak. But, to my surprise, I couldn't even force it to leak when I tried.
3. If they were priced lower, they would be great for traveling or just keeping in a diaper bag in case of an emergency.
4. The nipples are individually sealed so they stay sterile in a bag. Unfortunately, the same can not be said of the bottles themselves which makes no sense to me at all.
Overall, I feel they are middle of the road which is why I gave them three stars. They aren't the best product out there, but they could fill a niche and appear to function relatively well as a 100% disposable bottle which is something missing in the market.

I don't think I will be switching from the Playtex Dropins I have been using.
The re-sealable bags for the Steribottles are easy to use and do help keep them clean. Sterility of the bottles and the nipples is ensured by their being stacked, one on top of the other (think Dixi Cup dispenser). The bottles themselves are 8oz and graduated. The nipples are fast flow.
The procedure to unseal and reseal the bag to get out the bottles is straightforward, although probably not necessary. Once you open the bag it is no longer sterile. The need to carefully and only partially unzip the packaging for the nipples is tedious. The nipples leak very little when the bottle is inverted, but when feeding, the flow is very fast (too fast, much faster than a Playtex fast flow nipple).
The biggest surprise was that once you put the nipple on the bottle, you can't take it off. I discovered this while testing it empty and had to waste a bottle and nipple. This means you can't "top off" a bottle, or add something to an already made bottle. Forcing the nipple off the bottle breaks the sealing mechanism and renders the bottle useless. The bottle is recyclable, but not reusable. There is a lot less trash with the Dropins.
I see no reason to switch.
