Leaks, leaks, and more leaks...

| I gave these bottles every benefit of the doubt, that the leakage problems were user (my) error. After many different approaches to closing the bottles, inserting the nipples, tightening the caps, warming the milk, etc... I decided the effort futile. These things leak and leak tremendously! Nothing is more infuriating than wasted breast milk, a soaking wet baby and parent, and a hungry infant waiting for replacement milk to be warmed. Avoid at all costs. |
Buy the BPA-free Avent bottles made from Polypropylene (PPE) instead

| Stop! Do not buy these "old" Avent BPA-free bottles. These are the honey-colored Polyether Sulphone (PES) bottles that, for whatever reason, leaks for many people. They come in yellow-colored boxes. Instead, buy the newer Avent BPA-free bottles made from the Polypropylene (PPE), which has a cloudy appearance. These newer PPE bottles don't leak. These newer PPE bottles come in blue-colored boxes. |
I like them, but they do leak

| I love the brand and the look of these bottles. But the truth is they do leak and I don't really feel like figuring out why. They don't leak all the time. My baby seems to like these. He'll actually hold them sometimes and other bottles he doesn't seem so interested in. |
Leaks 1 out of every 4 feedings

We are currently using formula. I add water, add powder, and shake. 1 out of every four times I shake the bottle it leaks. It has been so frustrating.
I called Avent and they told me that if I am using formula I need to stir the mixture. The lady that provided instuctions was not friendly. She also said if the bottle continues to leak you can purchase some extra piece? A gasket or something. I am very unsatisfied with this product and I will not purchase it again, and I will not recommend it to a friend.

| I used Avent Bottles for my little one several years ago. My cousin also chose Avent for her baby registry. I chose to order fom Amazon rather than the baby store because of free shipping! Item arrived very quickly, no complaints. |
