Evenflo Feeding Classic Glass Twist Bottles, 8 Ounce (Pack of 6),Clear,1018611

I have used these exclusively, daily for 9 months+ and highly recommend. I wanted a glass bottle and was impressed by the price of these. They have been dropped (thrown?) many times on a variety of floors and not a single one has broken or cracked which cannot be said about the Dr B one I tested.When shopping for them, I did not love the twist design but I'm thinking it might help the sturdiness. These are heavier than competitors glass bottles but light enough for my 11 month to hold my himself. Cleaning is easy- throw in dishwasher or clear with a bottle brush. I use Dr Brown's nipples with these with no leaks (tip: if the nipple is collapsing, loosen the plastic collar).Very happy with purchase and confident these will hold up through many more uses.

I purchased the pack of 4oz bottles and I was scared to get glass bottles but I thought this was a great deal for the price so I got them. These bottles are durable! I had been careful with them but just a bit ago I was shaking the excess water off one of the bottles after washing it and it slipped out of my hand and fell on my tile floor! I was standing there so shocked because I did not even feel the bottle leave my hand until the loud noise scared me (I was doing the night routine of washing everything for next day use and was real tired)! I froze and was just watching the bottle bounce on the floor waiting for it to shatter into a million pieces but the bottle held up not one crack! I was so sure it was going to break but I am amazed that it survived! I only pump since I was never able to get my baby to latch on properly and these bottles fit my Ameda Finesse pump so I can pump into them and then store them or take them with me when we go out. I use a piece of scotch tape and a black Sharpie to date the bottles. I would recommend these bottles to any mom that wants to reduce their use of storage bags. I leave 4 bottles in the refrigerator ready to go in case we go out and I use the storage bags to freeze any extra milk to use when I'm having trouble filling the 4 bottles.

Compared with plastic bottles, it's superior because1. No worries about leaking chemicals.2. Easier to clean.3. So much more durable. You have to toss plastic ones out after a while due to wear and tear but not with this. That means less junk for the earth as well.Now the possible disadvantages1. Heavier. BUT not bad at all! I'm surprised that it's so much lighter than I had expected.2. Venting is not as fancy as some other brand like Dr Brown's. BUT they can be used in combination. Do note that 1) that way you are not plastic free. 2) you don't want to fill to the max 8oz because it's not designed with extra space and will leak. I only fill up to 7oz when using the full venting system.Now, the BEST way to use them with Dr Brown's venting is without the blue part (the long tube). This works because the opening of this glass bottle is slightly smaller, allowing the vent part (vanilla color) to stay at top without falling into the bottle; also it doesn't affect venting much. The only difference is with the blue part air goes all the way to the bottom of the bottle; without it air comes out of the end of the vent and accumulates at the end of formula body.It is so much better than using the full system because1. It increases the amount of milk you can feed at once. The blue part is what takes a lot of space. Now you can fill 8 oz.2. One fewer part to wash!3. Less plastic that comes into contact with milk!

I was very thankful to find these glass baby bottles. We used plastic baby bottles for my son, but the fat in my breastmilk never would quite clean out of them, and they ended up discolored and dingy by about 6 months in. This time around, I decided to go with glass for my daughter. We use Lifefactory bottles, Lifefactory 4-Ounce BPA-Free Glass Baby Bottle with Protective Silicone Sleeve and Stage 1 Nipple, Pink, with Dr. Brown's Preemie Nipples, Dr. Brown's Original Nipple, Preemie (0m+),6 count, for feeding, but they are far too expensive to use for storage.These Evenflo bottles are perfect for storage. I can pump directly into them (I use the Medela shields) if I so desire. There are half ounce markings on the side starting at 1oz up to 4 oz (also 25ml markings up to 125ml). I like to use solid storage caps, so I got B0006BAJNG Dr. Brown's Original Replacement Travel Caps, 3-Pack and they work perfectly. The packaging they came in was excellent. There was basically no chance that they could have broken in transit.I have 3 sets of these (for a total of 18 bottles), and one has broken already. It had about an ounce and a half of milk in it and was in my thermal being transported from work to home. I couldn't see a reason why it broke and I haven't had any other issues, so I'm guessing it was simply a lemon.Personally, I wouldn't use these for feeding directly from. There is no insulation from the temperature of the bottle (cold or hot), and the likelihood of it breaking if it was thrown is far too high for my comfort. I much prefer the bottles with silicone covers to be used for feeding (and I wasn't able to find a cover I was satisfied for a good price when I went looking.)These are outstanding bottles for storage, and you can't beat the price. So far, 18 (17 now) bottles are just right to keep enough bottles around to store a couple of days worth of milk while still having bottles to pump into at work. If I end up needing more storage bottles, I will be coming back to these again!

Since the bottles are smaller, they aren’t to heavy because of the glass. It also fit a pretty decent amount of milk in it, about 4 or 5 oz if I remember correctly. Easy to wash and gave me a lot of comfort because of the material. It was a great buy.
