Q: Do the nipples fit the Avent glass bottle screw on part or do I need to use the evenflo nipple screw on ring too for compatibility?
submitted by Amanda M - 1 year ago
A: The Phillips Avent collars will work to use these nipples with Phillips Avent glass bottles. No need to buy Evenflo collars, they do not even fit the bottles.
submitted byNikki - 11 months agoA: Hi Amanda, we have not tested compatibility with other brands. Keep in mind that even if a nipple does fit a different brand of cap ring and bottle, it might change the flow rate as pieces are engineered to work specifically with their own brand. Thanks!

Q: What month do you switch to level 2?
submitted by Babymama - 6 years ago
A: Medium flow is generally from 3-6 months, however if the baby is under 3 months of age and the slow flow nipple is collapsing then you would want to look into the next flow size up.
submitted byEvenflo_ParentLink - 6 years agoBrand expertA: Generally the medium flow nipples are used from 3-6 months.

Q: Do these fit the Evenflo Classic glass bottles (8 oz)?
submitted by galxz - 7 years ago

Q: So wait. There’s a Slow Flow (1 drop), a Medium Flow (2 drops), and a XFast (4 drops)? But there’s no Fast flow (3 drops)???? You have to go right from Medium to XFast? My child is refusing the medium now, but the XFast is WAY too fast.
submitted by BRap - 24 days ago
A: Hi BRap, there are only 3 flows of nipples--slow, medium and fast. The "X" doesn't stand for extra fast. Rather, it stands for X-cut which is a type of nipple hole style. Our consumer care team would be happy to discuss this further with you if you'd like to reach out to support@evenflofeeding and mention CS-11864. Thanks!

Q: The small nipples are not collapsing but the medium nipples are. Baby is 6 months. Why is this happening?
submitted by Olga - 2 months ago
A: Hi Olga, it is necessary to squeeze the nipple vent at feeding time. See the process here: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/how-to-squeeze-the-nipple-vent. Also, by 6 months some babies are ready for a faster flow. See if squeezing the vent fixes the problem. And please plan to try a fast flow nipple as well. Thanks!

Q: i have the medium “number 3” with 2 “droplets” nipples what age is that intended for ? target says 6months & up but i’m getting mixed reviews and just want to verify
submitted by Marla - 7 months ago
A: Hi Maria, to locate flow rate on our bottle nipples, please look for the following: S and 1 droplet are slow flow. M and 2 droplets are medium flow. X and 4 droplets are fast flow. The number you are referring to does not pertain to flow rate. As for age, every baby is different. By 3 months, many babies are ready for medium flow. Here is a guide to help you decide which flow is best for your baby: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/when-to-move-to-the-next-flow-of-nipple. Thanks!

Q: How often these nipples should be replaced?
submitted by Alena - 8 months ago
A: Hi Alena, Great question! it is recommended to inspect your bottles parts prior to each feed, discontinue use if any tear or crack appears, and routinely replace every 1-2 months. Thanks!
submitted byEvenflo Feeding - 8 months agoBrand expert
Q: How many months should fast flow be used?
submitted by Fast flow - 8 months ago
A: Hi, it is recommended to inspect your bottles parts prior to each feed, discontinue use if any tear or crack appears, and routinely replace every 1-2 months. The fast flow is often used until the cup is introduced, and then discontinued usually sometime after 12-18 months. Thanks!
submitted byEvenflo Feeding - 8 months agoBrand expert
Q: Are these nipples the x-cut nipples? I need a fast flow but not an x-cut.
submitted by Olivia - 9 months ago
A: Hi Olivia, our Balance + wide nipples come in three flow rates: slow, medium, and fast/x-cut. At this time we do not have a fast flow that is not x-cut. We will pass this request along to marketing and engineering. Thanks!

Q: Which ones are considered level 4? I have to add oatmeal baby cereal to my babies formula & my doctor said level 4. Is level 4 medium flow or fast flow?
submitted by VanillaBooLatte - 9 months ago
A: Hi VanillaBooLatte, our fast flow nipples are x-cut. This will hopefully accommodate the thicker texture for your little one. Thanks!

Best nipples for breastfed babies
5 out of 5 stars
Thumbs up graphic, would recommend
Miranda - 21 days ago, Verified purchaser
These nipples are the best shape for breastfed babies. It’s the closest that I could find to the actual thing. I had to start pumping when I went back to work so baby eats from a bottle a few times a day. 100% recommend for moms that are breast feeding but need/want to give bottles as well. It actually helped her latch when she was very small.
Perfect

These medium flow nipples work perfect for the wide neck balance bottles! As long as you make sure to pinch the vent before screwing the lid on the first couple uses to ensure it’s not stuck!

Disappointed with Medium Flow

Lgw - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
The nipples collapsed without my baby sucking much on them. The flow is fine for medium but something about the medium flow made my 3.5 month old have upset tummy after almost every feed. The nipples would also leak very easily even if secured correctly. The slow nipples were perfect. Not sure what the issue is with the medium flow. I might have to try a different bottle or go back to slow flow

Target Shopper 2025 - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
Evenflo balance nipple & ring are very difficult. Often the nipple implodes - see pics. Milk leaks when feeding. Very awkward design hard to get nipple in ring correctly. Only 1 person in household can get it set in ring properly-an Engineer. Good shape nipple for nursing babies, works well when set peoperly in ring. Baby likes shape.
Great

Not the same material - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
These nipples fit perfectly with the advent glass bottles. It’s the only nipple my breastfeed baby will take and we have now transition to the medium flow at 2.5 months which is a perfect flow for him. Highly recommend for mommas looking for a bottle combination for breastfeeding.

buttertobehonest - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
After just one month of use, we noticed the milk flows out at a significantly faster rate than before, making it difficult for baby to swallow comfortably. When I asked Evenflo if it's common to deteriorate in this manner over such a short period, they offered nothing but excuses. To my concerns about the need to replace so frequently, they said to "routinely replace every 1-2 months." That is just crazy. We've used Dr Brown's for years without having to replace and will return to them after this frustration. They never seem to be in stock, either, so I'm just over it.
1 reply from Evenflo Feeding team - 4 months ago
Hi buttertobehonest, we hear your frustration. Replacing nipples every 1-2 months or as needed is standard in the industry. The fast flow nipple your baby is using is also x-cut, and those do tend to wear faster than a typical nipple. Unfortunately, we do not have a fast flow for the Balance wide without an x-cut at this time.

Love these. They fit on multiple different bottles! Easy to clean and baby latches deeply. I just don’t know when to switch from slow to medium to fast !
Absolutely love, using with Dr. Brown wide glass.

KP - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
Love these 100% recommended to those who are breast and bottle feeding. I am using these nipples with the Dr. Browns wide neck glass bottles, without issue. I am primarily breast feeding but when bottle feeding we have switched to exclusive using this nipple. When using the traditional narrow nipples and then breast feeding I experienced extreem discomfort due to babys latch, but the evenflow nipple encourages a wide latch making going back and forth more comfortable.
Great nipples for great bottles

HallK - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
These are great replacement nipples for the evenflo wide-neck bottles when it is time to increase your babies flow rate. The nipples do come with instructions. They will collapse if you do not get the vent open or if the lid is on too tight.
Works but Nipple collapses during feeds
4 out of 5 stars
Confused - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
Does the job and fits well. BUT it does collapse unlike the slow flow. I’m not sure if it’s the size of the hole or the milk that is being extracted from the bottle that causes it to collapse. With 4oz, I pull the bottle about 3-4 times from my baby’s mouth to fix it from the collapse. It causes bubbles to flow into the bottle from the hole in the nipple. What bugs me is that my daughter does not know why I do it, and she gets upset that I pull the bottle away.

Melinda H - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
Well I realized only after washing and drying the nipples that we got 1 medium and 1 slow. This is super obnoxious and frustrating. Works well with the 1 we got. Would give 5 stars if we had both nipples that were medium flow.

Hi DKRogers42, It is recommended to squeeze the vent immediately before feeding to ensure the bottle vents properly and the nipple doesn't collapse. Please see this link for further instructions: https://www.evenflofeeding.com/blogs/bottles/how-to-squeeze-the-nipple-vent.

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!
1 reply from Consumer Care team - 5 months ago
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.

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!!!

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.
