The 10 Best Bottles for Keeping Your Baby Fed

Parents love that they last a long time and work for babies of all ages.

When you purchase a set of Evenflo Classic Standard Neck Bottles, you get a lot of bang for your buck. By buying them in bulk as a pack of 12, you get a great deal — you’ll usually pay less than a dollar per bottle when all is said and done. Many reviewers like that the bottles have a large nipple, are easy for babies to hold and BPA-free. Parents tend to like them best for older babies,

If you’re looking for more than just a basic bottle, the Tommee Tippee Advanced Anti-Colic Newborn Baby Bottle Feeding Gift Set is a great choice. Buy it for a baby shower gift or use it for your own baby. You get lots of cool accessories for an affordable price, including a travel bottle warmer, bottle brush, milk powder dispensers, anti-colic nipples, removable handles and pacifiers.

Some parents prefer glass bottles to plastic because they’re good for the environment and you don’t have to worry about harmful chemicals that might be in the plastic. Once again, Philips Avent comes through. The Philips Avent Natural Glass Baby Bottle is beloved by green parents everywhere along with those who are just looking for a high-quality bottle. They’re easy to use and clean, and they’re durable.

Many babies are prone to issues like colic, acid reflux, gas and upset stomachs. Dr. Brown’s Original Bottles are clinically proven to help reduce these problems with their unique vent system. The venting also works to preserve vitamins C, A and E, as well as lipids. Reviewers love that they’re easy to clean and take on the go.

If your baby is breastfed and bottle-fed, you’ll want a bottle that resembles the breast as closely as possible to prevent rejection and nipple confusion. According to reviewers, Comotomo Baby Bottles hit the mark. They’re one of the best-selling bottles on sites like Amazon, feature anti-colic venting and are safe for both the dishwasher and the microwave. The bottles are also BPA-, PVC- and phthalate-free. Reviewers have called them a “game changer,” and you can choose bottles and nipples with various flows for babies of different ages.

Suitable for babies ages six months and older, Dr. Brown’s Options Wide-Neck Sippy Spout Baby Bottle is many parents’ choice for helping their growing babies transition from bottles to sippy cups.

Some reviewers claim this bottle made the difference for toddlers who refused to give up their bottles. They also love that they’re easy to clean and don’t leak.

Making the transition from milk only to solid food can be as hard as getting your baby to trade in the bottle for a sippy cup, but the Sassy Baby Food Nurser helps make that transition smoother. Designed to hold pureed baby food or cereal, you’ll get two bottles with this set. One has a nipple, and one has a spoon on top. Both can be used with food. Reviewers say these bottles prevent big messes, are easier on their babies than regular spoons and are easy to keep clean.

Let’s face it: Bottles get dropped, tossed and bumped around frequently. For this reason, you want something durable, especially if you’re feeding an older mobile baby or you’re taking them on the go. The NUK Simply Natural Baby Bottle is not only inexpensive, but it’s also made of a thicker, higher-quality plastic than many bottles on the market. And it can withstand practically anything. Expect a quick flow given the multiple nipple holes in each one. Parents also love how easy these are to keep clean and sanitized.
