Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I hesitated for a long time before purchasing a sterilizer. My main concern was to buy a sterilizer that would also have a drying capability, but also buying a sterilizer that would be affordable. The instructions are clear and easy to read, my sterilizer was ready to use in a couple of minutes. Please keep in mind that you will have to run your sterilizer through a couple of empty cycles before the first use, so plan for 2 to 3hours after setting it up before you are actually able to use it. I have used this sterilizer several times a day every day for a couple of months. I use it to sterilize evenflo bottles, MAM bottles and pump parts. As you can see in the picture I have attached, you can easily fit 4 5oz evenflo bottles and 2 5oz MAM bottles. My only regret would be that breastpumps and bottles come with numerous "little parts" that need to be placed in the small basket, which require me to sometimes run the sterilizer several times in a row to clean everything. I used filtered water, but the base needs to be clean rather frequently (I try to do it once a week) with a vinegar solution. It does not take too much counter space. A few "tips": * all the parts must be prewashed before going into the sterilizer. I use a large clean bowl that I fill with warm soapy water, soack all the pieces then rinse them well before placing each of them in the sterilizer. * I fill the base first, then place the large basket that I fill with the bottles, then place the small basket on top and fill that up. If you fill the base last, the bottles in the basket fall all over the place. * The sterilizer itself does not get excessively hot, but the steam coming from the top travels quite far so make sure it is out of reach from children and pets while in use. Leave it enough time to cool before you empty it. * the pieces are not always perfectly dry, you might need to lay the pieces to dry some more after running a cycle (that has happened to me about 1 out of every 7 to 8 uses)
