Sleep and Time Saver

This bottle warmer has been a life saver for us. We were warming up the bottles in a very old fashioned way that consumed too much time. When the baby woke up at night it used to take 10-15 minutes before a bottle was warmed up and ready. By this time the baby was crying uncontrollably. Now with this bottle warmer it takes no more than 5 minutes! It uses a bare minimum of water to warm up a bottle. Now we are looking for a portable bottle warmer to take on the road with us.

Handy and Easy to Use.

We have a new baby boy that was born about a month ago. My wife and I have divided our duties and I'm the lucky chap who gets up at night and feeds him. She keeps a supply of breast milk in the fridge. Of course, I must warm up the milk and we purchased "The First Years Quick Serve Bottle Warmer" for that purpose. It's handy and easy to use, even in my sleep-deprived condition.

I'm not totally satisfied with this product. First of all, the cap holder broke off the little measuring vile almost right from the start. There's no way to fix it. Oh well, fixing it isn't essential, but it gives me the feeling that this bottle warmer might be a cheap piece of junk. Secondly, the bottle warmer heats the milk too hot if the instructions are followed precisely. Experimenting a bit, I have found that if four ounces of milk are to be heated to the desired temperature in the bottle, then the little measuring vile for water (added to the warmer) should be filled only to three. Go figure. Once you get that little calibration problem worked out, everything seems to work satisfactorily. Using it is fairly quick and easy. Otherwise, the warmer is nice looking and easy to keep clean. Hopefully it will last as long as needed.

disappointed

Well I thought this would save me time with my second infant - warming up breastmilk in a hurry. It has been inconsistent and not trustworthy so far. Out of the 6 times I've tried it - 2x it was WAY too hot and I didn't have time to cool it off. And the rest of the times it wasn't hot enough. Maybe I misread the directions, but they weren't the clearest either. I'll give it another shot - but at this point it's more reliable to just use a pan/cup of hot water.
