Dr. Brown's 2 Count Natural Flow Standard Glass Bottles

by Dr. Brown's

• Reduces colic, spit-up, burping, and gas
• Less oxidation helps maintain vitamins C, A and E
• Vacuum-free feeding like breastfeeding

Product Description

Size: 8 Ounce

Dr. Brown's bottle features a patented two-piece internal vent system that works unlike any other bottle design. The vent system fully vents our bottle for vacuum free feeding, which we call positive-pressure flow, similar to breastfeeding. As the baby feeds, air is channeled from the nipple collar through the vent system, bypassing the breast milk or formula, to the back of the bottle. Air never mixes with the breast milk or formula which minimizes oxidation and helps maintain essential nutrients like vitamins C, A and E. Babies feed more comfortably because the vent system allows them to nurse without fighting the negative effects of a vacuum or the discomfort of ingesting air bubbles. This helps to reduce feeding problems like colic, spit-up, burping, and gas. The breast milk or formula flows freely, without nipple collapse. Includes two 8 ounce glass bottles with two level one nipples, two 2 piece internal vents and one nipple cleaning brush. BPA Free.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Pleased With This Product November 22, 2011

By First Time Parents

Size Name:8 Ounce

Over all we would recommend this product in a heart beat, after using these for 9 months, this is the pros and cons list we've come up with so far. Our daughter has always been prone to gas easy for multiple reasons, this was the only bottle that aided in the prevention of gas and colic the best. We noticed a difference immediately.

To help with cleaning we suggest keeping all the pieces soaking in some soapy water after each use until it's time to clean all the bottles (unless you clean after each use), it helps keep the pieces looking clean and new, it helps with the mildew issue. (Below in the cons list it explains more.) Dawn Ultra seems to work the best so far or the Dawn Power Soaks.

CONS

1--> The brown inserts that go into the blue straw/tubes collect mold and mildew fairly easy and need to be scrubbed and soaked every day. These pieces will color over time and get nasty looking. After around 7 months they need to be replaced , that is when our bottles began leaking. We replaced these pieces recently and the problem stopped.

2--> The tiny brush that comes with the bottles does not clean the brown inserts well, they are only good for the little holes and the nipples . We suggest investing in a good nipple brush so you can get all the gunk off successfully .It also gets lost easy due to it being so tiny and a clear'ish color. The Munchkin Deluxe nipple brush has worked best so far.

3--> Cleaning all the parts and pieces is a huge chore every day but it 100% worth it. Also, because of this reason, we would not recommend this bottle for parents of multiples or multiple children unless you have good help. Or unless your child really,really needs the extra help this bottle offers.

4--> Our bottle DID break after rolling off the counter the first time. We've only had one bottle break but only one bottle has taken the floor dive so far. Not as sturdy as they seem and we have the old 7 oz bottles and new 8 oz ones.

5--> Most bottle brushes either won't fit through the opening or you have to really work on pushing it through . We found that the XOXO brand bottle brush works best, it has a nice long handle and goes through the opening perfectly, and actually cleans every inch. The nipple brush that comes with it is awful.

6--> The blue straw/tubes/filters become dull looking even after being washed. Let them soak in hot, soapy water for 5-10 minutes while cleaning the other pieces and they will look shiny and clean again.

PROS

1--> These bottles really mean business when it comes to gas prevention, it has helped our daughter tremendously.

2--> With the right bottle brush these bottles clean perfectly.

3--> The glass bottles seem to keep a better flavor when stored as opposed to the other material Dr Browns bottles come in. Our daughter prefers the glass ones.

The pros list is twice as short as the cons, but it is a bottle, not a toy . It does what it is suppose to do perfectly. It is worth the price you pay.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally an 8oz Dr Brown's Glass Bottle! September 18, 2009

By Fire Dragon RN

Size Name:8 Ounce

I love these glass bottles! The pictures are not accurate to what the bottles look like though, which for once is a good thing! These bottles don't have any labels on them, the Dr.Brown's is actually etched on the bottle as are the oz's, which means no pealing or flaking. The bottles are a little heavier than the BPA free ones obviously because they are glass. My daughter threw one on the floor many a times the days following purchase and not a crack or chip! These bottles are also 8 oz I'm not sure why it took so long to come out with the 4 and 8 oz versions, but I have both and love them! They clean easily enough and can go right in the dishwasher and come out spotless! I am very pleased with Dr Brown's bottles and their customer service! If you've ever had an issue and had to deal with a customer service rep from Dr Brown's they are EXCELLENT! They fully stand behind their product!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved these! May 31, 2011

By E. Estrada

Size Name:8 Ounce

I bought these out of concern for BPA. We also had the regular plastic Dr. Browns. A few differences to point out. Oh, and my husband used these with pumped breastmilk (I don't know if that makes a difference).

1. These warm faster than a plastic bottle, so we tended to prefer these over the plastic

2. Obviously, plastic is not going to break - so if you have concrete or tile (where you're feeding) you may want to skip these. One of ours bit the dust on the kitchen tile. We dropped them a few times on carpet with no issue.

3. I felt like these were easier to clean than the plastic. It was easier to see the "dirt" in the bottom than with the plastics.
