> 24 hourI love being able to pump, freeze and feed from this container. Just buy the Medela nipples to top these with and feed a newborn from. Both my kids took breast and bottle no problem

> 24 hourMy only complaint about these is I wish they came in more sizes. They are easy to use with my medela harmony, easy to clean, and it is much easier to warm milk up in these because they are so skinny. They display both ounces and mililiters. Oh...they are a little difficult to write on, but Ive managed to find one pen that will work (papermate felt tip).

> 24 hourThe product itself is excellent. I have no issues with it either using it, storing in the fridge or cleaning it. I only gave it a 4 not a 5 bec 2.5 oz is a small amount. It used to be perfect when my son was 2 months old. Starting the 3rd month his meal grew and i have to use the bigger medela bottles. I initially went out and bought 3 packs of this 2.5oz bottles. I now regret this bec they are not useful when pumping and then heating them. Also if you have a bottle warmer you will need to heat every bottle on its own vs. the 5 oz bottle which you can heat in one go. I also used a white board pen to write on the bottles when I put them in the freezer and it wipes off easily so no issues with that. I would advice that you buy the 5 oz bottles and not these if you are plannig to pump until your baby is more than 3 months.

> 24 hourTotally useful. They fit the breast pump, the caps, and the nipples, so they can be used for pumping, storing, or feeding. They freeze perfectly (just leave a little room at the top for expansion when frozen). Also this slim size was easy for the baby to hold (shape and weight), so she could hold it herself when she was old enough and wanted to. The slim size also easily fit in a cooler, vs. the bulky wide bottles. The small volume means less waste. Id rather bring 3 mini bottles than 1 giant one, because it minimized waste and also let me wash the finished ones that much faster. Perfect in the dishwasher. Use a basket (or even a produce net knotted @ both ends, free!) to keep the lids safe in the dishwasher. They have not stained even though we eat a lot of tomato-based foods and they share the dishwasher. Now that I am no longer pumping, I use them to freeze extra whole milk when I get it on sale, so we have spare milk handy (even though we pour it into a cup now). Also useful for carrying a small supply of toddler snacks in the purse or diaper bag; screw on caps stay on better. I got by with one set of 12, but a second set would have been essential if we were not already running the dishwasher daily. Also this was eligible under my Health Care Flexible Spending Account (as are all breast pumps, pump parts, and milk storage); regular bottles are not! I used way fewer disposable milk storage bags after I found these storage bottles.

> 24 hourThese bottles are great quality and work very well, with caps interchangeable with the larger bottles...but I dont understand why they dont hold a full three ounces. 80ml is just awkward!

> 24 hourThis Bottles are great for my baby when Im traveling they are not bulky or heavy. You can use a Similac or Evenflo nipple with them and youre ready to feed your baby. You can put juices, baby food, milk, water. I have used this bottles a lot for travelingIve been traveling the last 2 months and this bottles are great. My baby is small and he cant hold the regular bottles but he loves holding this one that adapts to his small hand. It is a great size bottle for newborn and even up to 12 months. I love them. I actually came back to buy another set. I would say this is A MUST PRODUCT for mommys on the go.

> 24 hourThese are really convenient because they can go from the pump, to the freezer, and they take standard nipples. They can only hold up to 2 oz frozen (need to leave room for expansion in the freezer), but I just give the baby 1-2 bottles depending on how hungry he is. It helps to minimize the amount of breast milk discarded because the baby does not finish the bottle.

> 24 hourThese work well if you are pumping smaller volumes. Often, though, I pump more than 4 oz so I use bags instead. Also, if one side produces more than the other, it can be annoying because one side will fill up and theres still room on the other side for more. Tends to be easier to just pump into the bottles that come with the pump and dump it all into a storage bag. I use the Lansinoh storage bags, which are great (I havent tried another brand yet). So, if you are pumping small volumes, these work just fine.

> 24 hourI got these thinking I was going to use them to freeze, but soon discovered that they were horrible to thaw in the fridge. It is so much easier to freeze in bags as they can be thawed in a matter of minutes by running under warm water. The positive on these was that I used them to pump into almost exclusively. Pumping into bags is so inaccurate when you are trying to see exactly how much you are pumping. Maybe I am just OCD about it, but I wanted to know exactly how much I was getting from each side and per pumping and these were perfect for that. I didnt use for storage or freezing, but I still found these helpful.

> 24 hourEspecially at the reduced price, these are great containers. When I was looking at babyfood containers for the freezer I was surprised at the prices -- so I used these as I had them on hand from when my supply was just getting started. When I first started out I had to pump every 2 hours for the first 4 months. The 5oz bottles made me feel like a failure when I was only getting 1/2 to 1 ounce. So I bought these and was able to measure and store the smaller amounts much easier. They were also great for supplementing with formula. I would put a scoop of formula in a bunch, grab a few for the diaper bag and go. When out I could just add 2oz of water and shake it up. Now that my supply is up I use the bags (different brand actually) for freezer storage, but these still get used for odd amounts -- I save everything in 4oz quantities so any extra goes in these bottles if I need to. But what I use them for most often now is store homemade baby food. I make a batch of steamed veggies or fruit, puree in a food mill, pour it in a ziploc, snip a corner off the bag, then squeeze/pipe the food into the containers. I bought some removable dot labels and theyre easy to store -- I have a plastic shoebox in my freezer that acts as a slide-out drawer and these fit perfectly.
