    • Absolutely not Born Free. They leak and their customer service is terrible. I like both Avent and Dr. Brown, and would add Playtex Dropins to the list.

      • np: I could not agree more. BF bottles are terrible. Mine also leaked and no response from customer service. Plus they have so many little parts to clean.

      • True Born Free leak, but have to disagree with the comment of bad customer service, they replace 7 inserts, caps and nipples for my leaky bottles. They work fine now with the new ones. I was probably really lucky or OR didn't have a good representative

        • I'm posting here their response to me when I emailed them about the leaky bottle: "The reason why the nipple is collapse is because the slit on your venting system which is close or you're tightening the collar to tight. The venting contains two pieces a white piece with three holes and a clear silicon piece. The silicon piece has a nip like next to the tad. If you give it a little sneeze you'll the slit. The slit close when your washing or sterilizing your bottle. When the slit is open bubbles will be forming in the bottle and when it's close the nipple will collapse. If you have nay other questions concerns please feel free to call or email me personally."

            • orr: I agree that was terrible. OP, sorry we got sidetracked your question is about bottles, we all agree that born free leak so stay away regardless of the fact that they will replace the accesories or not. I used Dr. Brown's with my first and never had any trouble with them. Lots of parts to wash some may say but it didn't bother me.

            • OR: This is exactly why I said customer service sucks.

    • The Dr. Brown bottles screwed into the Mandela breast pump so they were convenient when I was pumping at work (bigger than the bottles that you get for the breat pump) but my bs wouldn't drink from them. We used Avent. If you gt those I'd recommend the sealing disks for when you're on the go.

    • Both born free and avent leaked, though differently. I preferred to just use the medela bottles and free hospital nipples and had no probs with air/gas.
