Despite exclusively breastfeeding all three of my sons, I still found myself needing a steriliser for weaning and breast pump equipment. I originally purchased an Avent microwave steriliser when I had my oldest son and bought the updated, improved version ready for my youngest son, which speaks volumes about my positive experience with ...

My sister purchased the Avent microwave sterilizer in April 2011 as a gift just before my son was born. It has proved to be a godsend. I didn't find out I was pregnant with my son until 2 weeks before I gave birth, so with everthing becoming a mad rush the idea of breast feeding just wasn't an option for me at the time. The ...

Microwave steam steriliser When I was 37 weeks pregnant with our first child, I received a present from a friend of my husband: this Avent microwave bottle steriliser. Clearly she was unaware that I was a die-hard pro-breastfeeding advocate who would never need such a thing. How wrong I was! This steriliser helped ... Read the complete review

I chose this steriliser when pregnant with my first child. I had looked at the usual steam sterilisers but they seemed bulky and took, what I considered, a long time to sterilise. Most sat on the worktop and I didn't have a lot of worktop space in my kitchen. This steriliser used in the microwave. There are several advantages ... Read the complete review

The Avent microwave steriliser is a simple but fast way to sterilise your bottles/feeding equipment effectively. I have tried the Avent electric steriliser but I found it too big, cumbersome, slow and takes too much countertop space and with the amount of feeding bits and bobs i decided to go for something different. ...

I planned to breastfeed my daughter to six months, but from six to twelve months my health visitor recommended we sterilise bottles for follow on milk, too. I also needed a steriliser for my breast pump, travel bottles and storage cups, so it made sense to buy a steriliser whilst I was pregnant to take the stress out of needing one after ...

We bought this steriliser before our daughter was born, mainly because it was on offer at the time and we didn't really have a clue as to what equipment we would need as I was planning on breastfeeding. Unfortunately, breastfeeding didn't work out and I expressed milk and fed by bottle. This meant that we have used this ... Read the complete review

This was the first steriliser we bought when my first daughter was born. It cost £10 at the time from the Asda baby event-although they normally cost in the region of £20. This steriliser can steam up to six Avent bottles at any one time. All you have to do is wash the bottles through, take them to pieces and place them in the ... Read the complete review

- Why I Bought - I knew I was going to be breast feeding my baby but I wanted to be able to express milk to give him in a bottle therefore I needed a steriliser to ensure that the breast pump and bottles were 100% clean. I hadn't put much thought into which steriliser to go for. I came across the Philips Avent Microwave Steriliser ... Read the complete review

When it came to buy a steriliser for Jayden's bottles I had not idea what I was looking for there seemed to be so many different types to choose from. We decided to have a look on the John Lewis website as we had vouchers to use, we didn't want anything too expensive but we wanted something that was going to last. After browsing through ...

Its very daunting being a first time Mummy, with just about every invention being on the market I really didn't even know where to start when buying anything for my soon to arrive little bundle of joy. -Why did I buy the Avent Microwave Steam Sterilizer?- To begin with I went out and purchased a plug in electric steam ...

The steriliser works well and gets the job done quickly - 6 minutes on an 800 watt microwave, and quicker for higher powered microwaves. Emptying the water out is much easier than on electric steam sterilisers, since there are no electric cables to worry about. I was also pleased with the items included with the steriliser; 2 bottles ... Read the complete review

I purchased this product from boots at a discounted price of £10. I am surprised to read negative reviews of this product as I am very pleased with it. The steriliser requires 200ml of water and then it is place in a microwave for 6 minutes. As my first child is now 8 months old I could do this with my eyes shut (I have when ...

I bought this steraliser when I was pregnant with my first child. You know what it is like when you are a first time Mother, to be far there are so many items that you need, and lots of differrent makes, you have no idea what to choose. In the end I decided to go with the name that I reconsed the most, Avent, but what one would I choose? ... Read the complete review

This was the first item myself and my husband brought when we were expecting. We randomly walked into Mothercare and was browsing the various confusing other brands. We picked up the Avent one first mainly to be honest because it was the cheapest. My husband then made the decision that it was the one! We did not look at the box again ... Read the complete review

So like any first time parents you pick up the to buy list from mothercare and you walk around ticking off each item before retiring home with £600 worth of stuff!! 2 years on and although a lot of that "stuff" was pretty pointless and an easy sell to us, this, and a nappy bin, we could not have lived without You hear ...

I originally had the Avent Steam Steriliser for my first child, and only bought this microwave one as we were going on holiday, and didn't want to take the big one with us. We never stopped using it, and the large one was demoted to the cupboard! We actually bought this one from a nearly new sale for £4.00, but I believe ... Read the complete review

This steriliser from Avent is just brilliant. I thought about getting a table top electric steriliser but they take up soooo much room on the kitchen work surface. This one I keep in the microwave so that when I'm not using it I can store it there. Until I bought this my DH used to moan about even having a microwave as he has a 'thing' ...

I have to admit as a new mum I was wary of this, I just couldnt get my head around the bottles going in the microwave. However my mum purchased this for use when her grandson stayed over and couldnt speak highly enough about it.
