Advantages: Quick, Easy to use, Easy to clean!

Disadvantages: Bottles stay hot for quite a while after it has finished.

This was a brilliant peice of equipment!
Priced at £49:99 and purchased from boots this came with a lot of extras. Including:
2 Small Avent Bottles
1 Medium Avent Bottle
A bottle brush
A juice cup
and a pair of tweezers for pulling the sterilised teats through the ring of the bottle!

This was brilliant. Easy to assemble,easy to fill up and easy to clean off after use. It does say the bottles will be ready in 8mins but from time to time it would run on a bit longer so maybe at time it would take 10-15mins but it is still very efficient. It doesnt appear to take up to much space in the kitchen infact although it is a slightly large steriliser this only works in its favour as you can fit all the bottles you will need for the day in plus a few dummys and even the odd spoon!
The bottles do take a while to cool off after use which is a good point to remember when removing them from the steriliser..they get very hot! But hey at least you KNOW they are sterile! Having spoken to quite a few mums with different sterilisers...I would say I definatly had the least trouble with mine. It really does its job and fast! I would definatly buy another one if I had more children.
Also It lasts I gave used mine for 6months and then gave it to my cousin when she had her baby 5 months ago and she still uses it daily and has never had a problem with it. Infact if its still going I may just take it back for my next baby!
The price may be off putting but everything that comes with the kit is invaluble, my 18month old is still using the Cup that came with it and the brush lasted ages!

Summary: A great buy, simple to use and quick!
