Hello,

Has anyone used either the night and day bottle warmer from BRU or One Step Ahead? I believe the one at BRU is a newer version of the older First Years model.

and

Also, One Step Ahead has a basic model on sale that claims to shut off when the bottle reaches the right temperature. I'm wondering if anyone has used this?

Thanks!

Probably not the answer you were hoping for, but never owned one, never missed it! We didn't warm bottles at all for baby.

Sorry, I haven't used either of these. We have the Avent Express bottle warmer and it has worked very well for us.

Funny b/c the ratings on that one on Babies R Us seem so low. I'm not sure why people complain about it. How long does it take you to heat a bottle?

Thanks

Since DH is a SAHD he uses it more than I do to warm EBM. It heats up a bottle pretty fast, I'd say 5 minutes. I use it for warming EBM for cereal and it takes 2-3 minutes. My biggest gripe about it is that it doesn't have an on-off switch. You plug it in and it's on. To turn it off you have to pull the plug out. Otherwise, it's worked well for us.

I second the Avent warmer and wanted to add that the new ones have an on/off switch. If you read the amazon reviews a lot of the bad ones are for an older model and the new version is supposed to address a lot of those issues. I've had it for 2 weeks and so far its been great.
