Customer Reviews:
This is one of those products that you just love to write a review for: It's top quality and a huge value. My wife, daughter, and I used these and the 4 oz. models through countless cycles and they rock...
Pros
+ It's just glass - no BPA, no odors, no clouding, no scratches.
+ Easy to clean - they won't melt and they won't scratch with frequent cleaning. (don't use steel wool, of course)
+ They come with nipples, rings, and caps. Nice!
+ The threads match Medela breast pump valve threads. This is a really nice bonus, we think.
+ Value - have you seen the prices that some glass bottles are going for?! These aren't from a company that got into the business of glass bottles because of the BPA scare. Evenflo has been making glass bottles for a long, long time and the value to quality ratio is huge.
+ Quality - The nipples that came with these bottles have been great - tough and long-lasting. One thing I really like about the bottles is that they are clear, with gradations molded into the glass itself. This means no printed markings to obscure your view into the bottle, nothing to wear off, and no worries about what chemicals or heavy metals may be in the paint. Also, we've never broken one in nearly two years of constant use and cleanings.
Cons
- For those who are terrified of broken glass, well, these will probably break if you drop them on a hard surface.
Our experience
Our daughter used these through many, many cycles, first with the four ounce models and then with these as her appetite grew. She was breastfed and transitioned to pumped milk when mommy went back to work. We also used these for formula on occasion. Our daughter had no issues with the nipples whatsoever, even when breast and bottle both were in the picture. The silicone nipples are vented via a shallow groove at their base - twist the ring on too tight and the venting isn't effective, causing the nipple to collapse; too loose and it will leak. They worked well and baby had no issues with gas or fussiness.
The bottles worked equally well with formula, while on the breast pump apparatus, and moving from the fridge to the bottle warmer. You can tell when they are clean, unlike many - if not most - plastic bottles that are either printed on or colored, and that scratch or cloud over time; When we packed them away after our first child stopped using them, they looked like new! In thousands of feedings and cleanings, we never broke a single one. We'll be using the same ones for our next little one and we wouldn't use anything else. Highly recommended!!

I was nervous buying non-medela bottles because I wanted to have a seamless fit between the bottle and the pump. These seem like they'll be fantastic for breast milk storage AND they fit the threads on the pump replacement parts. Super price! No chemicals. Easy to boil and disinfect without worrying about melting. I'm one happy momma. (would be nice if evenflo created rubber grips and sold them SEPERATELY intead of only in pre packaged form)
By comparison shoppin' momma
