Dr. Brown's Options Wide Neck Glass Bottles, 5 Ounce

I like dr. Browns bottles, I should have known the deal was to good to be true. They weren’t even the wide neck glass bottles. They were plastic. Sucked because I couldn’t return them due to them being a baby shower gift.

My wife and I had been doing research and looking for a good baby bottle that helps with gas issues. Originally we started out with Phillips Avent bottles that we got for free as samples. They seemed to work well, but we both noticed that as the baby drank, air bubbles would visibly start forming in the milk. I didn't like this so I decided to make the switch to Dr. Browns since many review we read noted the reliability of the original Dr. Browns. I wanted something wider and in glass so the new Options Wide Neck glass bottles seemed to be the right choice. I can say, so far they've worked as described. No more air bubbles in the milk as he drinks. Perhaps the only downside is that there are more parts to clean, but that's not a big deal for us. Also, so far we have only encountered leaks when we didn't tighten the cap all the way. Other than that it has never leaked for us.

I am disappointed in this bottle! It leaks around the rim and breast milk smells sour after only being in this bottle for an hour (it should last 4-6 hours). I thought I would like them at first because they are so much easier to clean than plastic and they do have good aspects but they just do not work for us! My daughter also struggles with the wider nipple.The main reason for the one star review is the horrible customer service from the Dr. Brown's company. I wrote to them TWICE to find out if/where I could purchase a preemie nipple for this bottle and I didn't even get a response. This was WEEKS ago! It's hard to want to spend money on a product from a company that doesn't even care about it's customers. So disappointing.

We bought the glass bottles out of concerns of overusing plastic for our baby and found the glass bottles to be super useful. They are easy to handle and clean and leak-proof. I have come to like the Dr. Brown's brand in general and would recommend it for feeding needs. One issue we faced with glass bottles is they could get really hot when heated so a sleeve is a must - also much safer to handle with a sleeve on. Some day-cares don't accept glass bottles so check with yours in case you plan to buy these to make sure you can actually use them at the daycare.

I love them, the look, the feel, the glass and my kid likes the nipple. BUT THEY LEAK!!!! My precious milk is wasted, my baby gets wet on the chest all the time. Why do they leak????? The older glass bottles were great, why discontinue a product with such great reviews. This was a wrong move.

Ok so I have had the original glass bottles by Dr. Brown and they were wonderful! Which lead me to believe that these would be too. But they are just okay. One thing I don't like is that these are the hardest bottles to refill and use the same day. Because none of the pieces of the bottle make a real seal after milk has been in the bottle.. its as though if you need to refill you need to get a brand new clean bottle out! Which is hard to do when you have a very upset one year old! Not happy with the over all bottle but one thing that is better is the nipple. Its softer and easy for them to latch too. Also I like that it is US made. Over all I would buy a different bottle if I had a choice again..

My baby really likes the nipple on these bottles. The doctor brown style has helped avoid gas bubbles in the belly that create a fussy baby. He was not a happy baby while using Avent bottles. My only critique is that I wish that the bottle leaked less. If you are not careful to tighten the lid as tight as possible, you stand a chance of slightly leakage. I have bought several of these from Amazon though, and am overall satisfied with my purchase, and him please to have a bottle options made with glass.

I like those because my baby boy does. The wide nipple is much more natural and in turn it helps him get the right amount of nipple to fit into his mouth to get a strong latch (the way he would with a natural brest). The vent system, although slighty cumbersome to clean is very effective. I clean it right after feeding and use the included brush. My boy has hardly any gas at all, and is colic free.
