This bottle warmer works great!! Since we don't have a microwave to heat water quickly, and I got tired of trying to heat bottles in warm water, a bottle warmer seemed to be the best solution.I choose this brand because I use the Avent bottles and because a local store had it marked down to $24 (I didn't know the original price, and didn't realize what a deal I was getting). I was hoping it would work well, but it has surpassed all my expectations. It heats VERY quickly, even from refrigerator temperature. It's easy to use, clean, and store. Just be sure and follow the instructions. Once it begins to blink, remove the bottle and check the temp. I waited once and the bottle got quite warm. But, everytime I've removed it right away, the temp. has been perfect.
One note on the blinking light. The instructions say when the light blinks, the water has reached the proper temp. Now blinking to me means the light going on and off every few seconds. I guess this is not what blinking means to them. The light will go off, stay off for about 30-60 seconds, and then turn back on for 30-60 seconds. I didn't realize this was "blinking" until I waited through a few cycles and found the bottle very warm. So, I just put it where I can see it and remove the bottle when the light goes off the first time.
Also, as the other reviewer said, there is an on/off switch on the back of the until.
I highly recommend this product!!

We use this warmer with the Dr Brown's glass bottles and have been very happy with it. Originally we had the steam-based version from Philips. It worked great as well, but the lid sometimes got in the way, you couldn't always tell how much water was at the bottom, so we dumped and refilled every time.This warmer just sits there quietly, warms up quickly and you don't have to guess whether the warming is done or not because you can feel the temperature of the milk through the glass in the unsubmerged portion of the bottle. At first we thought it would take much longer than the steam-based version but haven't found that to be the case -2-3 minutes is enough.
The one thing we've found is that the bottles warm better the higher the water level, so we fill it to the brim each time. Also, it can be easy to forget this is on and we've found it will start to super-heat the water to a low boil. Left on overnight (we unplug each night) this could be a problem.

My wife and I had hard time running to the kitchen and back to the bedroom for getting a warm water to heat the milk in the middle of the night with your eyes half closed and youre half awake. It takes about 8 mins til we're able to serve our baby a warm milk. Shes hungry! So I looked around the net for solution and found this product. Read the reviews and I was convinced that this is what we really needed. Both me and my wife are very pleased and happy how quick this product warms the bottle milk. It takes about 2-3 mins thats when the light shuts off and by that time the milk is ready. The moment the orange lamp/light turns off we pull out the bottle immediately and the milk temperature is just right. The water level is sometimes hard to determine how much youve poured in. cant really tell if its already level to the milk. My wife simply just lets it go little over the level of the milk. I wish they put a water level indicator outside. When the lamp/light turns off the water inside is hot, you can see it steam up and evaporate so you keep a bottled water beside ready for the next heating. After the light turns off after few mins it will turn on again because I believe it will maintain the hot water temperature. We put the dial setting high full to the right that way it's quick on heating the water and the bottled milk. This product is very very helpful making our response time to our baby quicker. When she cries, she cant wait for the milk. Just test the milk always before giving it to the baby. Always. I highly recommed this product to parents with baby.Save 44% Off
