We have used the Dr. Brown’s bottles since our baby was born and have looked at the sterilizer a couple times but never got one thinking it was pointless because I can just wash them. BUT now that I have one I wish I had gotten it months ago! I have both glass and plastic bottles and they both fit perfectly in there. I love that it dries the bottles afterwards too! I also love that I can put pacifiers and teething rings in there and continue to use it as she grows for when she transitions to sippy cups and straws. I definitely would recommend it","reviewer_name":"Kristina8757"},{"date":"3 years ago","title":"Issues after two months","rating":1,"content":"We got this for baby shower gift and loved it. We used it to sterilize everything properly for our baby in the NiICU. We are now on time seems to be making monocracy, loud sound, and becoming less effective by the day. We hope that when we reach out to customer service, they will provide a replacement part or replace the defective machine. I’ll be more than willing to revise this once we speak with their customer service, and I learn how they take care of their customers needs for defective products. Stay tuned for more.","reviewer_name":"Mikewy"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Effective sterilizer and dryer!","rating":5,"content":"Dr. Brown’s gave me this product to try - My favorite feature of this sterilizer is how sleek, compact, and functional it is. I did not use a sterilizer for my first baby, but with this baby, it has been great! It is easy to use and effective for not only bottles, but pump parts and pacifiers as well! I would highly recommend the bottle sterilizer. It fits everything I want to sterilize at once and it is highly effective. I love how it only takes a few minutes, and I don't have to worry about forgetting a pot of boiling water on the stove!","reviewer_name":"BusyMom2"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Such a great addition to the Dr. B family!","rating":5,"content":"I started using Dr. Browns Bottles with my last couple of children and I wish I would have used them for all! BUT I always wished there was a bottle sterilizer that fit all their little pieces AND the bottles and nipples too! With this it does all that and MORE! I love that it fits other brands too like my older daughters sippy cups so I can just throw it in there. And even though I am an \"older mother\" sterilizing is still just as ever important to us now because of what's going on today in the world. You just can never be too careful!","reviewer_name":"Anonmom410"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Time saver!","rating":5,"content":"I received the Dr. Browns sterilizer and dryer for free in exchange for an honest review. I have been very pleased with the product thus far. I have twins, and this is a huge time saver on the multitude of bottles, pacifiers, and breast pump parts. The drying feature is so nice. If I had one critique it’s that I wish the drying feature was faster (~ 35 minutes) it’s still way faster than the items sitting out to dry, plus as long as the sterilizer stays closed, everything remains sterile for 24 hours. All in all, 5 stars!","reviewer_name":"Twinmomof3"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Works Great!","rating":5,"content":"Dr Brown's gave me this bottle sterilizer and dryer and it works really great. Its large enough to hold multiple bottles. I also sterilize pacifiers and teething toys as well. This device is really easy to use. It as simple and putting everything in and pushing a button. The top rack holds bottle tops and other small things easily. The dry setting works well too. I love knowing that my childs bottles are getting the extra step to clean. Overall, I would definitely recommend this sterilization system.","reviewer_name":"Lisa9iner"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"A must","rating":5,"content":"No more boiling bottles for me! And I’ll say I’m so thrilled that I don’t have to boil them no more! It is a job of its own! This device is a must have for every parent or guardian. It can sterilize up to 6 bottles at a time. But it also has a tray to add the nipples and pacifiers and even breast pump parts. It’s very convenient and all I have to do is set it and turn it on. It kills the bacteria and comes with a filter that needs changed every six months. It’s made very well. And easy for me to use.","reviewer_name":"MomPlease"},{"date":"6 years ago","title":"Amazing steralizer!","rating":5,"content":"I've always used and loved Dr Brown's products! Before receiving the sterilizer and dryer I used the basic Dr Brown sterilizer. Let me start by saying the original Dr Brown sterilizer was amazing; however, I hated that the bottles always came out wet and I had to hand dry them to put them away. Fast forward to the sterilizer and dryer, it works just as you'd imagine. It sterilizes quickly and dries perfectly. It saves so much time and the fact that I can just take the bottles straight out assemble them, cap them, and put them in the cupboard for future use is such a tim saver. It's so nice to have peace of mind that I know my little boy has a clean bottle each feeding.  The top tray also works well for all of his pacis and my breast pump parts! I can see myself using this for a long time!!!","reviewer_name":"MommaP"},{"date":"3 years ago","title":"Conveniently stopped working 90 days in","rating":1,"content":"A full refund if offered if not satisfied after 90 days. Our dryer completely stopped working after 112 days. This is our second baby, and we used the original sterilizer back in 2020. It lasted the entire year we needed it despite not using distilled water like described in the instructions. This time around we strictly used distilled water every single time, and descaled monthly. More expensive of a product, and only lasted 1/4 of the time.","reviewer_name":"Nicole Bru"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Life saver","rating":5,"content":"Honestly, I’m amazed how well and easy this thing works. The instructions are so easy to follow, it holds 6 bottles and a lot of pacifiers, nipples and etc. I use it pretty much every day and feel so relieved my baby had clean, sanitized bottles as he loves to throw them on the floor. I don’t really have any complaints or issues. It shuts off automatically which is always a plus. Overall, I think it’s a must have for parents, in my opinion, just need to get a bunch of distilled water.","reviewer_name":"ValerieA"},{"date":"9 months ago","title":"Terrible Product","rating":1,"content":"Never worked from day one.

Let me tell you how awesome this machine is! I loved the drying feature the most. It takes about 45 minutes to sterilize and dry, but the bottles are  clean and dry. The buttons are easy to operate. The only thing that I didn't like is that it uses distilled water only. Other than that this is a great tool to sterilize baby parts. I even sterilized my breast pump parts and it worked like a dream!","reviewer_name":"Dia J"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Baby bottle sterilizer and dryer","rating":5,"content":"This bottle sterilizer and dryer has been the best for us. We have a busy household so sanitizing and drying bottle used to be time consuming but with this product we can place them and forget about them until they are done because of the auto off feature.

My baby was born at 31 weeks gestation and the NICU instilled how important sanitizing bottles was. I was always stuck tossing them in a bag with water in the microwave. NOT ANYMORE!

This is a MUST HAVE.","reviewer_name":"ITsKt"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Easy to Use","rating":5,"content":"Thank your for allowing me to review this product.  I love this bottle sterilizer and dryer for bottles.  It makes it so easy to clean, sterilize and dry your bottles.

I was spending so much time washing and drying bottles, but this little thing sanitizes them for me AND leaves them completely dry! I just turn it on to run every time I’m done pumping and it’s all ready to go by the next time I need it. So. Much. Time. Saved. The only thing I dislike is even with distilled water, the metal plate gets all gross and I have to clean out the brown gunk each cycle.","reviewer_name":"Kaitlynrm"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Wish I had it sooner!","rating":5,"content":"I received this product from Dr Browns to review and I love it. I wish I would have had it for my first born too! It makes it so easy to sterilize not only bottles but pacifiers too! And everything actually DRIES after it’s done!  The only downfall is you need to make sure to use distilled water with it.

While it is not as big as some other bottle warmers it does work better with some of my pump parts. I exclusively pump and use a lot of parts throughout the day so that is very important for me. I also love that it can be used as just a dryer. It dries parts for my Willow pump really well. It's almost impossible to air dry those so the dry is really helpful.","reviewer_name":"Shelby1327"},{"date":"6 years ago","title":"Great product","rating":5,"content":"I recieved this product in exchange for my honest review.

It was very easy to setup and use. The buttons are pretty simple and can be used per convenience. The bottle look dry and clean after the full cycle.

If there was a little tank to put the water in, so that it can be used atleast 2-3 times with one refill, it would be great.","reviewer_name":"Onlyhuman"},{"date":"5 years ago","title":"Very Handy","rating":5,"content":"The Doctor Brown's Baby Bottle Sterlizer and Dryer is very nice and handy to have.

Clearly it's for people who have a baby and loud random noise are not helpful if baby is sleeping.","reviewer_name":"AnneM"},{"date":"6 years ago","title":"Amazing Product!!!","rating":4,"content":"Got this like a month ago.

It’s easy to set up and use. The dryer feature is 100% the best part of this product. I was using a ton of paper towels to dry everything prior. Having bottles sterilized, dried, and ready to use has made life a little less hectic. It is bulky so make sure you have a good space carved out on your countertop near an outlet. The sterilizing and drying cycle takes a bit of time, but if you plan it out and cycle bottles in and out you can always have your items ready!

I had an microwavable sterilizer with my first baby two years ago. This Clean Steam Sterilizer and Dryer is absolutely amazing in every way compared to what I was used to. Not only was everything easy to put together but it's super simple to use. It also doesn't take up too much counter space, especially compared to the amount of bottles and even breastpump parts this thing can hold! Once the sterilizer is on, I usually set it on Auto (Sterilize/Dry) and walk away. The whole process takes about 45 minutes and every bottle/part is dry! There is even a setting for Dry Only which has allowed me to completely get rid of the bottle drying rack that was sitting on my counter top. After everything is dry I can simply put everything up where it needs to go or use it immediately if needed! I would recommend this to every new parent out there and will be buying it in the future as a baby shower gift!

The full sterilizer and dry cycle takes about 45 minutes so I do appreciate the option to sterilizer only.

This allows 4 different options: sterilize only, dry only, sterilize/dry combo, or storage mode. From my experience, sterilize only takes about 15-20 minutes from start to cool down, dry only takes about 45 minutes, and the sterilize/dry combo takes about an hour. I tend to wash everything in the evening and put them into the sterilizer for an overnight cycle so it is all ready by morning. The auto-shutoff is a great feature for me, as is being able to keep them sanitized overnight while in storage. This includes a HEPA filter and an extra filter is also provided. Hopefully replacements will be readily available at retailers. I have non Dr Brown's bottles and they fit in the bottom just fine. Pacifiers and bottle accessories fit in the top with ease. I have to put pump parts in both top and bottom sections. I can usually fit an entire day's worth of stuff in one cycle during the week, but find myself only running it as needed on the weekends since I tend to not pump or bottle feed these days.

Investing in this appliance was a wonderful idea. It eased my mind and is incredibly convenient because it not only sterilizes and thoroughly dries the bottles and nipples but also all parts of various breast pumps, pacifiers, and teethers as well.

The fan is very quiet and turns off on its own. The whole machine is a bit big (tall) but if you load it up with the days bottles you dont have to keep emptying and refilling.

It’s important to me that my baby doesn’t get thrush and I don’t get it as well considering if one of us gets it the other will. I’ve already gone through that bout and it was awful forcing my baby to intake that medicine to get rid of thrush. I said to myself, never again! So I made it my determination to clean and sterilize everything we use so we avoid getting another fungal infection. My last sterilizer didn’t have a dryer so I would have to wait for everything to fully dry and it was a waste of time. This dr browns sterilizer does it all! Wow we’ve come a long way from having to boil our stuff. My mother in law thinks we get all the cool gadgets now because she had to do it the hard way. This is the much easier and convenient way for us busy mothers. I do love that it fits a good amount of bottles and haakaa’s at once. Those are my must have things to be cleaned. As well as the nipple shields, baby bottle nipples and pacifiers. The machine is not too loud and is not heavy. About 4-5 lbs.

I've used water bottles, baby bottles, straws, baby cups, pacifiers, and many other items. I love how easy and quickly it is to use this machine without waking up the baby. I also really liked that it comes with an extra HEPA filter (2 to be exact!). Each HEPA filter lasts 6 months, which is nice as it's one less item I have to worry about when taking care of a baby and older brothers.  You have 3 options: sterilize, dry only or combination (my favorite one!). It also includes a measuring cup for adding water, well thought out design! It also has an auto shut off when you get busy with the kids.  Weigh about 5 lbs, which is very light to move around the counter or out of the box. Unlike my previous sterilizer, this one actually gets the job done and leaves my bottles nice and dry. I am extremely happy with the results of this product. Super easy to clean and set up! I am a huge fan of this modern looking design, as well as the lid. Very slick, dark, but enough to see your bottles, teethers, and toys.
