Q: Can the bottles be washed with the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro?
submitted by Gladys - 7 months ago
A: Hi Gladys, Great question! Our instructions recommend hand washing in warm soapy water (approx 86F) and air drying, or placing on the top rack of the dishwasher. Depending on the temperature of the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro, I would imagine it would be safe to use the wash-only cycle, but note that we have not tested for possible warping with that specific product. If you have further questions, please reach out to support@evenflofeeding.com and reference CS-6886. Thanks!

Q: Can the wide neck nipple be used on these, instead of the standard neck nipple it comes with?
submitted by Denise Z - 3 months ago
A: Hi Denise, the wide neck nipples must be used on the wide neck bottles. Likewise, standard nipples must be used on the standard bottles. The width of the bottle opening is different. Hope this helps!

Q: Can you use the ring and nipple with any other brand out there like dr brown narrow bottle?
submitted by Hene - 3 months ago
A: Hi Hene, the Evenflo Balance + standard nipple and cap ring can be used with the Evenflo Classic glass bottles! Only the bottle is interchangeable--you have to use both the Balance + nipple and cap ring. Hope this helps!

Q: Are these okay to go into a sterilizer without worrying about plastic breakdown?
submitted by Ruk - 3 months ago
A: Hi Ruk, exposure to heat can wear the parts more quickly, and we do not recommend using free-standing electric sterilizers. If the heat is too extreme, too quickly, this can cause warping. Per the CDC recommendations: Bring a pan of water to a boil, add disassembled parts, boil for five minutes. Stir frequently. DO NOT allow parts to rest on bottom of pan as they may melt or become damaged. Or to sanitize parts in the microwave, use Evenflo Feeding Silicone Steam Sanitizing Bag according to instructions. Thanks!

Q: Are these glass or plastic?
submitted by Jackie - 4 months ago
A: Hi Jacke, the Evenflo Balance + standard bottles are plastic. Only the Balance + wide bottles come in glass. But here's a tip--you can use the Balance + nipple, cap ring, and hood with our Classic glass line. Only the bottle itself is interchangeable. Thanks!

Q: Can I use with electric pump?
submitted by Ty - 9 months ago
A: Hi Ty-- Yes! You can use the Evenflo Balance + Standard bottles with your Evenflo Advanced Double Electric breast pump. The pump flanges attach to our standard bottles. If at some point you wish to pump into our wide bottles, we have an adapter for that. Thanks!

Q: Do these come with caps?
submitted by Marybeth - 1 year ago
A: Hi Marybeth, these bottles come with hoods to cover the nipple. They do not come with caps to replace the nipple and give it a solid lid. You are welcome to reach out to our consumer care team if you have other questions: support@evenflofeeding.com. Please reference CS-4694. Thanks!

Air/ nipple
3 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Yady - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
I feel like they let a lot of air as I could see all the air bubbles going in and even when I would take it off my baby's mouth I could hear the air coming out! I could even feel my baby's stomach with air/bubbles as he was drinking The nipple is perfect I will say but is it worth all the air your baby is getting?
Great Anti-Colic option

Amazing bottle that has the same shape as a breast making it an easy latch for the baby. It also does not have 10 million parts.

kmorris - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
I read about this bottle online and decided to buy for my son as a backup option and I am so glad I did. This turned into the only bottle my son likes. I personally think the nipple shape is very similar to breast anatomy, with a gradual slope change. My son latches on to this bottle without issue while he rejects many others. It doesn’t have too many pieces so is simple to wash and holds up well to sterilizing in my experience. Bought a second pack!
Corrected shallow latch.

The nipple shape helped fix my newborn's shallow latch. I have noticed the nipple collapsing at times.
Nipples collapse constantly

Breana - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
This was the first bottle my exclusively breastfed baby would take after weeks and weeks of trying. We finally got her to take it at 19 weeks old. But the nipples would collapse during every feed! And I noticed that she started “biting” me after she started taking these bottles consistently once she started daycare. Daycare actually asked me to try a different bottle because they would have to touch and adjust the nipple during every feed which is obviously not ideal on many levels. Thank goodness my baby will take Dr Browns bottles now as I had no issues with them with my first child and wanted to use them in the first place.

Hi Breana, Glad your baby is taking a bottle with ease now. A couple things may have been going on with your Balance + bottle. First our slow flow nipple is very, very slow. It could be that your baby needed a medium flow nipple. Also, it is very important to squeeze the vent immediately at feeding time to ensure the nipple vents properly. Here are a couple helpful links about how our nipples vent: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/how-to-squeeze-the-nipple-vent and https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/why-a-bottle-nipple-collapses. Glad things are going well now!
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!

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.
Horrible - leak and collapse!!!

These medium flow nipples are horrible. They leak and collapse. There is a tutorial on the website how to avoid the nipple collapsing that shows they acknowledge the product issues but keep selling them. Do not buy

Amazing Only complaint is to make the slow flow nipple available for additional purchase without ordering more bottles.

I bought these to upgrade from my daughters slow flow nipples and had to order 5 packs and one of the nipples didn’t have holes in it. Other than that they have been great. My daughter isn’t having nearly as many gas pains since we’ve switched to these bottles.
Terrible and the nipples collapsed

Evenflo wide neck balance bottles and spectra wide neck bottles are the only ones my baby would accept after WEEKS of bottle refusal (and we started trying bottles at 3 weeks old). Thankful evenflo makes these bottles in glass as I don’t like heating up plastic. I recommend for breastfed babies! I can see her latch on this bottle is wide like it is when breastfeeding.

Love this bottle! Grandma and grandpa said out of all 6 grandkids my daughter has the least amount of spit up with feedings and the only difference is we have only used the evenflo wide neck bottle and my siblings used other bottles.

The bottles actually fit up to 7 ounces. They are super easy to clean, I scrub the nipple with soap and a brush then toss all the parts into the dishwasher every night and they come out sterilized and clean. The plastic bottles left an oily residue from formula if you did not scrub them completely. These seems a lot more sterile.
Not a good choice

It doesnt fit any other bottle. Its waste for me . I bought because my lactation consultant suggested, but she yold me this will other bottles as well. It is pretty expensive and alot of shipping charges on it. I cant even return it , because we have to pay for shipping again here in canada to send it back.
