 Good glass, but frustrating design July 24, 2008
When our Avent bottles started to get scratched and replacements were no longer available (BPA and all that), we decided to switch to glass.
OK, these bottles are glass--that's good. Also, ours came with silicone nipples, also good (vs. latex). However, the rest of the bottle is an exercise in poor execution.
1) The bottle is too small! All available formula mixes 240ml water/4 scoops formula, but these 8oz bottles simply don't have enough room for the water plus formula, so we're reduced to 180ml/3 scoops. The 4oz bottles will take two scoops just fine, so you're only gaining 50% in moving up to a supposedly double-sized bottle.
2) They leak! Oh LORDY, they leak! Too tight, they leak. Too loose, they leak. Just exactly the right torque on the collar, and they might not leak, if you've got the lid slammed down as hard as possible. Of course then they won't vent.
3) The nipple collapses quite easily, and is much slower to feed than it should be. This is partly related to the venting mentioned above, but it bears repeating.
4) The opening is too small! OK, I know that this is a standard and the nipples/collars will fit on premixed bottles of formula, but it's a BAD standard! The Avent bottles were so much easier to pour formula into, in comparison.
Why can't they (or anyone!) fix these things? The cheap plastic (BPA-free!) Gerber bottles are absolutely leak-proof. The Avent BPA-containing bottles are easy to fill and close to leak-proof at the collar, but have a terrible lid design (which melts just above boiling). The glass Evenflo don't vent, and leak all over. Haven't yet tried any of the others, but I don't see anything that meets all the criteria for a perfect baby bottle:
1) Proper size
2) Leak-proof
3) Glass
4) Silicone nipple
5) Vents
6) Simple design (which drops the Dr. Brown, from what I've seen)
7) Idiot-proof (because who wants to mess around with getting a bottle _just_ right at 3:30am with a screaming baby on one arm?)
8) Affordable - the small (5oz) Born Free bottles are FIFTEEN DOLLARS EACH locally! That's just ridiculous, folks.
In short; They're decent, as good and bad as anything else out there, but not as good as they should be.

Evenflo 4-Ounce Classic Glass Nurser 3 Pack
The product is made of glass and that is the only reason to buy this. However after getting the product we found that its light weight. I recommend using this product.
no cap rings July 16, 2008

I think the product itself is fine, but I was disappointed to find that the bottles did not come with a cap ring to hold the nipple on. I tried using Dr Brown rings, and they do fit, but they leak. I cannot find rings sold separately anywhere, so I have not been able to use these bottles. In the description of this product, it says that cap rings are included.

I am pleased with this purchase. With all the scare about plastic bottles, I wanted to find some good old fashioned glass bottles. Thanks Amazon!
great classic bottle July 10, 2008
We started with these because they're BPA-free. When we got them, they came with the old brown latex-rubber nipples, but now they come with silicone nipples. Also when we got them they came with the stopper discs, which I'm not sure are still included, but you can always buy extra discs.
Pros: affordable, simple/not a lot of parts, bpa-free, glass is dishwasher safe, "hexagonal" shape means a knocked-over bottle doesn't roll away (as opposed to Dr Brown's perfectly round bottles), fits standard breast-pump
Cons: glass is heavier and more breakable, no sophisticated venting for colicky babies, nipple rings will wear out over time and I haven't found where they sell replacements
