 Faulty Vent System December 3, 2008
KidHorn (Maryland)
I've had these bottles for 6 months and they work OK except for one major problem. The vent system usually doesn't work. What happens is as the baby drinks milk, the air pressure inside the bottle drops and is supposed to be replaced via a venting system. It works occasionally, but most of the time it doesn't. What ends up happening is the nipple collapses and the baby has to stop sucking to let air back through the nipple.
This can be remedied by loosening the cap, but if it's too loose, it will leak.
I have some Dr Brown bottles that are also BPA free, cost much less and work much better. My wife refuses to use these bottles because of the venting issue.
 They feel good December 1, 2008
wowmom (Cold Spring, NY United States)
We have the 5oz and 9oz bottles. They feel really good in my hand. The nipple looks very comfortable in our baby's mouth. The nipple lid fits nice and tight.
Great bottles September 22, 2008

Our 3-month-old has been using these bottles since he was one month old. The bottles don't leak at all and they don't cause gas. I can only guess that the ones who had leaking problems don't know how to screw a bottle cap on.
At least one reviewer (maybe it was on the larger bottles; I read through those reviews too) seems to think the bubbles rising through the milk as the baby eats the milk is a bad sign. They apparently didn't go through any physics classes on their way to their G.E.D. If there weren't bubbles then a vacuum would develop behind the milk making it harder and harder to suck the milk out. So the bubbles are entirely necessary to equalize the pressure inside the bottle with the outside.
We plan to buy the larger bottles when he gets older and I might change my opinion then, based on what I'm seeing in the reviews about the nipples that allow more flow. But for our newborn, these bottles have been great.
If your baby sucks too hard and coughs and gags...... September 9, 2008
samoya (Danville, PA USA)
My newborn has a voracious appetite, and would suck so hard that she would end up coughing and gagging at every feeding! It got to the point that I was nervous every time I fed her! Then I realized that she only did that with the Medela nipples (I had bought both the Medela nipples, which I had placed on Evenflo glass bottles, as well as the BornFree bottles in order to have several options). As soon as I went back to the BornFree bottles, even though she continued to suck hard, she no longer coughed and gagged!! SO IF YOUR BABY COUGHS AND GAGS WITH FEEDINGS, GET THESE! YOU WON'T BE SORRY!
Also, regarding the review that stated that the bottles "morphed into blobs", she MUST have been doing SOMETHING wrong as far as the microwave sterilization is concerned (?maybe not adding water), because that definitely does NOT happen! (Best bet is to use the Born Free microwave sterilizer.) Also, as far as customer service, I also had a good experience - I had e-mailed them requesting instructions for the sterilizer, and received a very quick response!
Overall, an EXCELLENT product, WELL WORTH THE $$$!
love them! August 21, 2008
Sarah Chapman (Alaska)
i love my born free bottles! i had dr browns before because of the gassiness, but when i found out these were BPA free and Dr Browns didnt have any at the time, i made the switch. When i wrote DR Browns a letter they basically told me that the BPA thing was overblown and had no backing to it. Then why are you making bpa-free bottles now? Anyway my baby has been less gassy since we switched to these and i like that i am doing something good for him. Also they are easier to clean than the Dr. Browns. They always had an orange residue left on the vent. Never had that problem with these bottles. They are worth the $$. He loves to hold them himself too, even though they are wider, he is getting the hang of it, although mommy still holds onto the ends to keep it straight!
