Our Charlie turned 1 this week. Why am I writing a bottle post? Well, I have one last bottle review to share with you before we pack them away. I was given the chance to try out the newly launched Evenflo angled bottles with the Proflow™ one-piece integrated vented nipples. They are great because they don’t leak or drip, there aren’t 84 million pieces to take apart and clean, they are affordable, and the way they are angled make it easy for me to hold and feed Charlie or he can hold it himself now too. Where has time gone? THIS post was my first Evenflo review with our teeny, tiny Charlie.
You can buy the Proflow vented nipples separately if you already have a bottle that you love. (Hopefully it’s an Evenflo). This nipple is superior because it rapidly vents air bubbles into the bottle and not the babies tummy. I think we are all for less gas, fussiness, and colic!
Another set of bottles to check out is the Evenflo classic tinted bottles. You would think by kid 3 I wouldn’t have time to think about this, but I like to match the bottle color to their outfit when we go out! I know, I’m a nut job. These tinted bottles are not only cute and colorful, but they include the Proflow nipple system that makes them extra great. They are available at Babies R Us in pink, lavender, teal, blue, orange, and green in a 4 or 8 oz size.
Whether your bottle feeding days are just beginning or you’ve found your groove with your sweet little baby, give the Evenflo bottle line a look. They are available at major retailers. I’ve said this in other bottle posts as well, just because your baby doesn’t like a certain bottle the first time you try it, doesn’t mean it won’t be their favorite next month. They change and their likes and dislikes change with them. Hopefully you have an oinker like I did who likes ALL bottles as long as their filled with yummy milk for his tummy.
How long did you use these evenflo advanced angled bottles for? I’ve had mine barely a month and will be contacting the company. First of all after about 2 weeks of hand washing my bottles in hot water the numbers rubbed off.. not long after that the nipples started to go and would shoot my baby right in the face almost every time I went to feed him. And then the tops started to go! In the middle of a feeding the top popped off and nearly drowned my baby in my arms! I honestly thought it was my fault that I put the top on wrong but it happened 2 more times with different bottles!(thankfully I caught these times right as they were starting to come apart and only his clothes got soaked) I was looking for a contact number when I saw this post and just wanted to share my experience
Hi Dana,
Hope you got it resolved with Evenflo. I honestly had no problems with it. I used them for my 2nd child too and hers were fine as well. We just packed up bottles a little bit ago for my baby in this post, but mine were not washed off in any way. I’m lazy too…I ran them threw the dishwasher on the top rack. I hope they made it right for you. There is nothing more frustrating then a leaky bottle. Sounds like the nipple was too fast a flow or I have had nipples from all kinds of bottles do that here or there. It can sometimes just be one nipple in a pack that does it for no reason that I can see. Sorry for your frustrating experience.
