CLASSIC GLASS NURSER 3 PACK

A great (but heavy) BPA-free option
I was among the parents who were really upset by the news about BPA in children's bottles -- especially because I exclusively pumped milk for my son, which meant that his milk was not only served but also stored in plastic bottles. We switched to glass shortly after the news broke.

The Evenflo glass bottles are certainly a great buy -- the price is fantastic! I wasn't wild about the rubber nipples that came with the bottles, but I just pitched them and used the nipples we'd been using. (Just about any standard-size, as opposed to wide, nipple will fit these bottles.) I also feel like glass just gets "cleaner" than plastic ... that's probably not true, but the glass doesn't get scratched and cloudy like plastic, so the bottles seem more pristine to me!

Of course, the best part about glass bottles is that glass is inert. So there are pretty much zero worries about anything leaching into the milk (or formula).

Now, the downside ... these suckers are HEAVY! We almost never used the larger bottles, because when filled, they just weighed a ton. And if you've never been smacked in the face with a bottle by a toddler ... well, let's just say these ones are way more painful than the plastic ones!

And, unsurprisingly, glass can break. These are quite solid, though, and I think we only ever broke two -- one at home (it was dropped on a hardwood floor) and one at an airport (my son threw it onto a chair with a metal arm ... whoops!).

Since my son is no longer drinking anything from bottles except a little water at bedtime, we've switched to BPA-free plastic, just for convenience (and this co-sleeping family's safety!). But when our next baby is born and I'm pumping at work, we will DEFINITELY be storing the milk in my glass Evenflo bottles.

good, affordable alternative to plastic bottles
These bottles are great, and I had a hard time finding them in stores around me. They do not seem to give her any problems with gas. I like that they are glass (BPA free), easy to clean and very affordable.

Classic Design; Safe Materials
These bottles have been perfect for us. We started bottle-feeding out of necessity when our baby was only 6 weeks old, and these bottles have worked perfectly. They're BPA free, which means we don't have to worry about heating them. We haven't had any trouble with the nipples, and we're currently using the Stage 2 (3-6 months) size.

We love these bottles and their classic design. And the price is great (BPA-Free plastic bottles often cost each). If you are bottle-feeding, I would recommend getting at least 12-15 of them so you don't have to wash and sterilize bottles everyday.

Great Customer Service at Evenflo, but nipples collapsed
We tried to switch our 8 month old son from Avent bottles to these bottles when I first learned about BPA. The nipples collapsed. I purchased a different size of nipples, and they collapsed, too! So I contacted Evenflo, and they sent me another size of nipple, which also collapsed, but their customer service was excellent! They were kind, helpful, and efficient.

Not Nice Nipples
The bottles are nice & sturdy but as has been commented before, the nipples are shoddy. I breastfed for 11 months, supplementing with AVENT botles(which I was extremely happy with functionally but they have BPA) but I just switched to these because they're BPA-free. I would not recommend these to nursing mothers because the poorly shaped nipple is completely unnatural. These tiny, narrow nipples are unlike AVENT's nipples, which mimic a good nursing latch. We used a #2 AVENT nipple, which has a slow flow and caused my daughter to actively nurse from the bottle. These Evenflow slow nipples are so fast that they caused her to chug-a-lug quickly. At first she even choked. Medela nipples fit as an alternate but they are faster than AVENT as well and they're just the wrong shape. The seal on the Evenflow bottles are slightly leaky if you don't get the rings screwed on just right, which in my one-handed hurry I rarely seem to be able to do.
