PhilipsAvent Breastfeeding Starter

Perfect and good value for money. Although the 3 in 1 steriliser would be better

Frankly I found the steriliser clunky, big, clumsy and it doesn't dry off which made it messy with water condensating in the main compartment which made it impractical as you'd have to dry it all out including whatever you sterilised.The hand pump has a poor grip and poor latch on suction system.

A lot of essential stuff for your money. Slightly confusing for new parents to tell exactly what is needed. This seems to cover the essentials. Breast pump hurts a bit when used but is effective. That takes off one star.Good value for money. Recommended!

A large kit of all things breast feeding, including an electric sterilizer, manual breast pump, bottles, soothers, breast pads, cleaning brush, teats for the bottles, containers. This kits is everything you need for having a baby. Thy breast pump itself is a manual, therefore the basic one. Manual is OK for expressing small amounts, however if you plan to express a lot more then an electric pump would be much easier and less stressful. The rest of the equipment is great and everything you need in one box.

I reviewed this product with the help of a friend who's just had a baby. Baby is struggling to latch on so the manual expressing pump, steriliser, storage containers and bottles in one convenient kit are certainly convenient! It also contains pads and dummies which go upto 6 months old. Ours were white and blue. Its all wrapped individually and as I write this review, the retail rate on Amazon.co.uk is £139. I'd sooner it be a bit cheaper and with less packaging as I don't believe you're saving a huge amount. Nevertheless, any saving is a saving and I'd happily recomended this set to new or expecting parents looking for the complete range from a trusted brand. All items were easy to set up and use, the tubs havent been used much as they haven't been needed at rhe moment but the lids fit on and they seem to be quite sturdy.

All this kit comes in one bigger outer thin brown cardboard box but all the contents are in their own smaller usual retail packaging boxes. I believe it represents a saving at the time of this review but best to do your own calculations at the time of purchase. I'm more of a fan of microwave sterilisers mainly as you can store them in the microwave when you have limited kitchen space but this is a good 4 star tall and thin electric steriliser great for when travelling visiting hotels and relatives. The bottles and teats are 5 star top class. The tubs are useful but I've found they leak when accidently tipped on their side. They are screw top and the tightness seems to diminish over time and washing. The dummies are good - up to 6 month size and the breast pump is great with the massaging petal shaped inner. I prefer the Johnsons pink box disposable breast pads to the ones included here and the Emna Jane bras with integral pads you just throw in the washing machine. Overall though a great set of essentials.

What a great set to have or give to a new mum . Everything you need to get you started including dummys and bottles. Excellent value

My Best Buy ever!!!everything what I was needed from my son birth.Very good because everything in one box ,for good price,and can't go wrong with this box,as first time fathers this was brilliant!!!
