Avent iQ24

Ok so as far as sterilisers go, this is state of the art, however is it perhaps taking things a bit too far? I have had and used this steriliser for 7 ish months now and even though I swear by it I know I could honestly have gotten by with a cheaper model. The Avent iQ24 steriliser is relatively new on the market and has of course gotten great reviews from all the baby magazines, but is it really worth the money? The steriliser works by placing the bottles, teats, caps etc on the trays, adding 90mls water and pressing the button. In hardly no time (6 mins) the bottles are sterilised and ready to go. It has two modes, 1 keeps the ...  Read the complete review

Excellent product, top of the range. This sterilizer does it's job quickly, quietly and reliably. It holds plenty - I usually do a full breast pump, and three bottles with teats and lids, or you can do upto 6 bottles. It takes 6 minutes, and the best bit - it then stays sterile for upto 24hrs. Fill it up when you've got 2 spare mins and it'll always be ready when you need to use it. It will need cleaning with citric acid powder but this is quick and easy. You get the powder with the machine and when it's gone you can buy citric acid cheaply online, a bag which will do about ten cleans costs a couple of pounds. I have used the ...  Read the complete review

I am so impressed with this sterilliser it is unbelievable!! It is so easy to use and so quick that baby never ever has to wait. It comes with really easy to use instructions that give you a step by step guide making sure your bottles and soothers are sterillised to high/ safe standard for your baby!! It is really quite pricy at about £60 which is the highest price sterilliser on the market but it is really worth it for the piece of mind that your babys bottles are being sterillised properly. This sterillier takes 6 minutes only to sterilise your bottles and has two settings enabling you to keep your bottles sterillised for either 6 ...  Read the complete review

Easily one of the best items I have bought for my baby. I find it very easy to use. Just wash the bottles with the provided bottle brush, wack them in the sterilizer, pop in 90mls of water, close and bobs your uncle, perfectly sterelized bottles in around 8 mins. It does need cleaning with the provided tablets every now and again. A WORD OF WARNING, About 7 months after using it it stopped working correctly and started to 'click off' mid clean. It is easily fixed however by giving it a 'super clean' with vinigar and then a couple of cycles with just water and no bottles in it. The sreilizer comes with three bottles a litttle measuring jug a bottle brush and a little ...  Read the complete review

I bought this steamer and my husband would sterlise the bottles every night. It was easy to use but we found it to be time consuming compared to the Avent microwave steriliser. Also, it would require cleaning as well ie. drop in sterilising tablet and let it do a cycle without any bottles in it. It took a fair amount of room on my limited amount of work surface. With frequent visits to Glasgow and Liverpool to visit the grandparents, this was to big to take. We decided to invest in the Avent Microwave steriliser which is half the size, can be stored the the microwave (so not taking up work surface space), is much cheaper (about 50% cheaper), can be easily ...  Read the complete review
