Why this product *************** The Tommee Tippee microwave and cold-water sterilizer was something I purchased in a mad dash into Boots when my son was about a week old. He had spent the first week of his life in SCBU and we were both going home. The electric sterilizer I had bought prior to him being born was not going to be suitable to sterilize the nipple shields that I was using to help breast feed him so I needed something quick. I was keen to continue with cold water sterilizing, as this is how things were sterilized in SCBU for the babies so I had in mind that this would be the most convenient way to do things.

I love this steriliser! It is especially designed to fit the new wide necked Tommee Tippee bottles, and has a separate section for each part. In total you can sterilise 4 bottles at a time in as little as 4 minutes depending on the strength of your microwave. (Anything lower than 1000w takes 8mins) The steriliser consists of 3 parts- the base, the lid and a removable tray which you set the bottles on. The tray has 4 spaces for the bottles to be placed in neck down, 4 stands for the teats and rings (you sterlise these joined together), and a central hump for the caps to stack on. To sterilise in the microwave you simply fill the base with 200ml of water, ...  Read the complete review

When I was pregnant, one of the necessities that I needed to buy was a steriliser. I was planning on bottle feeding so I knew it was going to have to be a good one. But which one do you choose?

I remember buying the steriliser well in advance, and it wasn't until I was nearly due that I decided to unpack it and make sure we knew how to use ...  Read the complete review

When you're about to become a parent you're met with all kinds of advice about all kinds of gadgets and "necessary" items that you'll need for your little one. Few people agree on what is and is not required but one item that will appear on most lists is a steriliser. Let me state from the outset that a specialised steriliser is NOT required - you can do the job in a clean, sterilised ice-cream tub if you want, but, for convenience, many will look for something designed for the job. As I was planning on breast feeding I decided that I probably wouldn't make much use of a steriliser and so wanted something cheap and simple to use. This ruled out ...  Read the complete review

I honestly thought I would breast feed. So I only bought a cheap microwave sterilier for the times that I would of course express easily and simply and be able to go out for the odd occation. I was delighted to see the Tommee Tippee Microwave and cold water steriliser hald price at Mothercare. RRP is £19.99 and I paid £10 for mine. It came complete with 2 wide necked tommee tippee closer to nature bottles, tongs for lifting the teats out and pulling them through without touching it. A double ended bottle brush and detailed yet simple instructions advising how long to sterilise for according to your microwave wattage. I thought this was a wonderful buy for ...  Read the complete review
