Better than other bottles we've tried

As with most things touted as a miracle cure for your baby, the hype is a bit overblown. This bottle does help but doesn't end reflux altogether.

My three-month-old daughter has had reflux issues since she was born. She's almost exclusively breastfed, except for one or two bottles a day of expressed milk. I thought I'd give the Dr. Brown's bottles a go, after feeding her from Born Free and Medela bottles with no discernible difference in her spitting up. With the Dr. Brown's bottles, we did find that she spits up slightly less. Does she still spit up? Sure -- just not quite as much.

I wash these bottles in the dishwasher (top rack), and haven't had a problem with them leaking. Yes, there are a number of pieces that have to be cleaned for each bottle, but there are no more pieces than the Born Free bottles, and in the dishwasher it's not a big deal. And even the times I've washed them by hand, having to wash a few pieces and use the enclosed brush hasn't been onerous. If she were exclusively bottle-fed and I didn't have a dishwasher, I can see where these bottles might seem like a pain, but otherwise they aren't that time-consuming.

A lot of the comments on the Dr. Brown's bottles seem to come down to a question of parenting style. If you're the type of parent who values convenience above all things because you're dealing with a needy baby, especially if you don't have a dishwasher, you may well dislike the Dr. Brown's bottles (my friends in this camp rave about the Playtex dropins). If you're instead the type of parent who doesn't mind an extra minute or less loading the dishwasher and an extra 5 seconds in assembling a bottle, if it means your child with reflux will spit up a bit less, I recommend trying one of the Dr. Brown's bottles to see if it helps your baby.
Not a miracle bottle

We started out using Dr. Brown's bottles early on with our twins. They both had horrible gas as well as reflux and some very stubborn burps. We had hoped these bottles would be the miracle that some people claim they are. However, that was not our case. I suspect they probably did help prevent SOME air from getting in their tummies, but our babies still had several burps after taking only about 3 ounces. So I decided to switch to Playtex Ventaire to see how those bottles did. And while they are no miracle bottle either, they are sooooo much easier to clean! Our babies still get some burps with the Playtex as well as colicky tummy pains, but they always have had to deal with that kind of thing (unfortunatley). But at least I don't have to also deal with cleaning the Dr. Browns bottles now, because they were a pain! The Ventaires are extremely easy to clean at least.
Great bottle, until I found better.

This worked great for my infant. Does everything is said it would. However, there are five parts to individually clean and keep together. And I found the internal bottle system more intensive to clean, even though they do enclose a special brush for cleaning. Without it, forget it.

I do not dishwash my baby bottles, however after my husband ran them through the dishwasher we had a hard time with leaking.

So I tried another bottle, the Avent bottles. I love them. My baby loves them. Easy to clean. PBA free. The bubble filtration system works just as good as the Dr. Browns. They're worth the extra dough.
A lifesaver

My foster son has terrible reflux, and these bottles have made a definite improvement for him. They are great!
