I ordered this to ship to me for a babyshower gift and the box came damaged. Kind of bummed because it looks opened but it’s too late to exchange.

We loved these bottles. They are perfect for your baby to get deep latch. They help with nipple confusion as well. Easy to clean as well!

Best bottle out there
Absolutely love these they are anti colic without all the parts like other bottles. Baby took to them no problem and we go back-and-forth between bottles and breastfeeding.

Good for breastfeeding moms
After 4 months these were great for my baby. I tried them before but the flow was too fast. He used the avent nipples prior and I did notice a deeper latch when using these when breastfeeding

I literally hate these bottles
They leak almost every time my baby is eating, I’ve tried all the trouble shooting things on evenflo’s website and we still have issues. It’s especially annoying when they waste hard worked for breastmilk.

Flow is fast
Flow is fast and its hard to find slow flow nipples for evenflo. Creates lot of gas for the babies

Hi Nagi, sorry to hear your baby is having difficulty. Please try this-- let your baby latch onto the nipple when it is empty, keeping the milk in the bottom of the bottle. When your baby has sucked a few times, tip the bottle so milk flows. Hopefully this helps! You are welcome to reach out to our support team at support@evenflofeeding.com and reference CS-8729. Thanks!

I like it
The nipple shape of the bottle hasn’t caused any problems with latching when I breastfeed. My newborn doesn’t seem colicky. Good bottle.

Hi H, sorry to hear you are disappointed. However, these also come in glass if that is better option for you. Thanks!

New Design but still shows original photos
I ordered more of these bottles since we have been using them for all of our kids since we had our oldest almost 5 years ago. These bottles have been redesigned and while the nipple is the same, everything else is different and does not make the pieces interchangeable with the the old design. We LOVED the old design and recommended them to everyone. The new design also starts marking at 2oz instead of 1oz which sucks because my baby is drinking between 1 and 1.5 ounces at a time. I have to return these because I don’t want to risk accidentally mixing pieces and having bottles leak milk everywhere.

Hi k8, thank you for making us aware of the old photo image. I have elevated this to our marketing team, as well as comments about volume markings. Here is a great guide to explain more about the design change: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/balance-wide-has-a-new-bottle-design. Thanks!

Happy with these!
I was so happy to have found these. It has been difficult finding Evenflo bottles so I’m glad target carried them. I like the nipple shape as it allows the transition from breast feeding to bottle feeding and vice versa easy.

Leak and fast flow
These bottles are being highly recommended but I don’t see how. They leak and the flow is so fast! Disappointed bc I really wanted them to work out!

Hi MoMo10, sorry to hear of your experience. Every baby is unique, and one bottle will not work for every baby. That being said, the Balance + nipple is one of the slowest nipples on the market. We would love the opportunity to assist you and see what may be going on. Here is a link that may have some ideas for you: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/why-is-my-baby-bottle-leaking. You are welcome to reach out to our support team at support@evenflofeeding.com and reference CS-7396 for further assistance. Thanks!

Not compatible with Spectra flanges
We love our standard neck balance bottles. I purchased the wide neck so I could pump directly into the bottle. However, the threading on the bottle is not domparywirh my Spectra or Maymom flanges. I will be returning these. I guess I continue using my Spectra adapter to pump into the standard neck bottles.

Thank you Evenflo
Only bottle she would take! Thank you Evenflo for the wide neck nipple. She’s mainly breastfed but trying to get her to take a bottle so I can get a break and leave her with dad for a couple hours.

Wanted to love but too many flaws
These bottles are great to promote a good latch, especially if switching between bottle & breast. However, that’s the only good thing about them.. if the lid is screwed on too tight, the milk will pour out the groove in the white rim. Also, they create a ton of bubbles inside the bottle which causes my baby to swallow air — I would have to unscrew & rescrew the lid on, and press the nipple in so it made a pop noise to release the pressure build up. I really wanted to love these as I’ve heard great things about them but they just didn’t work for us.

Got baby nursing!
This nipple shape is perfect. Made my baby learn how to properly latch. Delighted to no longer need a nipple shield. Seriously amazing bottle that I’m so grateful for!

Not the same
These are not the same as the ones pictured. These are a newer version. I originally bought these for my 1st child 2 years ago and I swore by them. These are the new version which I’m not in love with. They feel so much cheaper and not as sturdy. I’ll be keeping them because it’s the only bottle my 2nd baby will take. I’m not sure why it’s not advertised that they’re not the same as before. The caps are not interchangeable with the old version. Old version is on the left new is on the right

Nipple shape changes with size
I did A LOT of research before my baby was born knowing I was going to nurse and bottle feed. I wanted the best most comfortable option for us both. The newborn nipple slow flow was great! We had no problems and she was enjoying her bottle. Once she hit 3 months out LC said we should increase the flow on her nipples. We ordered the next size up for the medium flow and the entire shape of the nipple is different. I noticed, but prayed she didn’t. She did. It was a nightmare and now she was refusing the bottle. Why on earth would you change the shape?! Know babies and babies and so finicky!? I truly don’t understand. We needed up going with Lansinoh. So not recommended evenflo for this reason. Who knows you may be able to be persistent, but the shape may also be different on the high flow!

The Evenflo Balance + nipple shapes are identical for each flow rate. The same mold is used to manufacture every nipple. A different process is used to change flow rate. Perhaps the nipples you received were for a different model? Please reach out to us at support@evenflofeeding.com with photos so we can assist. Thanks.

Bummed
Sadly Evenflo has changed their nipples greatly over the last 3 years and the flow “type” is not clear nor consistent. It took us months to find replacement nipples as we had to guess what number/symbol meant what compared to ones we have for our first baby. Great bottle & nipple shape but a pain to find. Also some nipple openings began cracking making them flow too quickly.
