 ... The base unit also appreciates a regular wipe down, which keeps it looking shiny and new. ===Recommendation=== While Steam sterilising is not the cheapest or most environmentally friendly way of making sure baby's bottles are squeaky clean. It is for me the most convenient. My microwave isn't large enough to accommodate a steriliser large enough to sterilise more than a single bottle at a time, and that method isn't suitable for my pump in any case. I don't have the patience to watch a saucepan of water boi...more

Boots Steam Steriliser: Essential and invaluable piece of equipment. (308 words)

I chose a steam steriliser, because I thought it would be easier than messing about with chemicals, and it was a piece of equipment that I made sure that I bought before my daughter was born. I knew from my previous experience of having my son - that this was the one for me! Even though I was mainly breastfeeding, when I went back to work part-time, I needed one bottle of formula milk to take to the Childminder's as I had had trouble expressing. So I needed the steriliser to sterilise the bottles and originally the breast pump. It was very easy to use - measure 75ml of water and put in the base of the unit, (I bought a little jug, that had the ...  Read the complete review

I decided on a steam steriliser rather than any of the other methods mainly because I'd been told that it was the quickest and easiest way. I chose the Boots one because I like their products, and this one now has the added advantage of having two free bottles included. You just add water, place everything in the unit and put the lid on. Switch it on and nine minutes later the cycle is complete. Don't remove the lid straight away as it's bloomin' hot in there! It takes up to 6 slim bottles with teats, lids etc. and 4 stubby ones (eg. Avent). Everything stays sterile for up to 3 hours afterwards, if you don't remove the lid. There's a dial on the ..  Read the complete review

Boots Steam Steriliser: Steam v Cold Water Sterilisation (285 words)

To steam or not to steam that is the question? Well I got both a steam steriliser and and a milton type tub so I had the chance to try both. The steamer won and the tub went to Grannys. The steamer takes about 12 mins and uses tap water. Just pour in the right amount and switch on. Even if you are breast feeding it is handy for your breast pump and those first spoons and dishes. Once it has cooled a little the bottles etc are ready to use. I just leave unused spoons and things in it ready to use and refill it once a day and switch it on. Easy even for a stressed new parent. £29.99 Tomy 6 Bottle Steam Steriliser. The tub takes 30min ...  Read the complete review

Whether you are breast or formula feeding your baby, a steriliser is a fairly essential piece of kit. There are many different types available from the basic cold water systems (using sterilising tablets), to microwave units to electric sterilisers. While I was pregnant I had bought a microwave steriliser, only to find it wouldn't fit into my microwave. So while exclusively breastfeeding I used the very small container that came with my manual pump. This was fine until Sure Start supplied me with an electric pump and told me that I could sterilise it using any method except the microwave. While cold water sterilising works fine, it can be a time consuming task, bottles, .  Read the complete review

Boots Steam Steriliser: Steam!!!! (300 words)

I bought the Boots Steam Steriliser before the birth of my little one, nearly 10 months ago. It had been recommended to by a friend, and since I had no previous experience with sterilisers, I thought what the heck. I have found the steriliser to be a great piece of kit. It is so easy to use, you literally just place the washed bottle parts in the steriliser, add water to the base and press go. I had it in my head before my baby's birth that sterilising was going to be hard work, but with the Boots steam steriliser, it's a doddle. The steriliser can hold up to 6 bottles in the base tray, plus any other items you want to throw in like spoons, ...  Read the complete review
