A bottle warmer should make feeding a hungry baby quick and easy. Try to find a bottle warmer that doesn't require any complicated assembly and will heat the bottle fast and evenly. Also, consider the cleanup. You'll want to keep the water reservoir clean between uses, so make sure it can be easily wiped it down. Some bottle warmers offer chill, defrost, and heat preservation options, as well as a sterilization feature that not only works on bottles but other baby gadgets too.
There are also some that are remote-controlled so you can heat up the bottle without getting up from bed right away. It also has a detachable microwave steam sterilising unit, which fits in standard microwaves, and is also suitable for cold water sterilisation. Nevertheless, Lauren feels this is best suited to someone who primarily wants a steam steriliser, with an occasional need for heating bottles.
It heats room temperature milk in just over two minutes, which is fantastically fast, and both the milk and bottle feel lovely and warm.

This nifty gadget is for your car. You plug the insulated bottle carrier into your car, using the adaptor supplied. Additionally, the carrier keeps bottles and jars cool. However, this portable device has an auto shut-off feature and an internal thermostat. However, it took around 45 minutes to an hour to heat my bottle to the desired temperature, so it would only really be suitable for a long car trip.
Overall, our tester feels this is a little impractical, except for use on long car journeys. However, she likes the fact that it keeps a bottle warm once it reaches the desired temperature. This prevents hotspots and overheating. But most babies much prefer drinking milk that has been gently warmed, rather than milk that is cold or at room temperature. There are also other options such as insulated bottle warmers for when you are out and about or combined steriliser and bottle warmers.
Mums-to-be or new parents will also find our guide to the Top Baby Products super useful. Although a bottle warmer is not an essential item, it can certainly be a handy addition to you baby product list. You can check out the Grownsy Bottle Warmer here. Newly released for , we were super excited to get our hands on this new baby bottle warmer for testing thanks, Kiinde! Like a few others on this list, the new Kozii SafeHeat Pro uses a warm bath to produce gradual and gentle convection heating, using lower temperatures than steam-based bottle warmers.
The lower temperature helps preserve nutrients in breast milk vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, and white blood cells or baby formula, though it might add a minute or two to the warming cycle. Out of the box, the Kozii SafeHeat Pro feels like a high quality device - the plastics are good quality, the stainless steel interior lining is smooth and strong, and the lift-out basket and water filler are nicely designed. The lift-out basket allows you to place narrower baby bottles and smaller jars of baby food into the device, without worrying about reaching into the hot water to retrieve it.
The water filler hangs on the back of the warmer and provides graduated markings to help you fill with the appropriate amount of water; distilled water is preferred, of course, however you can use regular tap water with regular e.
The beauty of a warm-bath style bottle warmer is that they have no hidden nooks and crannies and are very easy to clean. Operation was very simple, there is one single knob on the front that allows you to set the number of minutes to warm its contents. Once the timer expires, the system automatically shuts off. It could also easily fit a Medela breast milk storage bag without issues. Taller bottles, like a 9-ounce Dr. Brown's bottle would stick up a bit over the top the top of the milk was about a half inch over the water line , but this didn't lead to any warming issues.
The only cons are relatively minor: there are no special settings for defrost, and the price is somewhat high given the features. Overall, we love the new Kiinde Kozii SafeHeat Pro and are excited to be the first major website to review it!
This relatively expensive bottle warmer is unique in comparison to the other ones on our list, as it uses a different filling and heating technique. For this system, you fill up a reservoir underneath the warming pot, and then when you turn it on, the water level rises up to surround the bottle.
This is an interesting setup because it doesn't require filling a reservoir on the side and relying on tubes and other mechanisms to store and move the water, so there is less risk of things getting disgusting over the course of a few days. However, we wouldn't leave that water sitting down in the reservoir without using it for over 24 hours, as it's likely to get a little funky down there. To be fair, the water never comes in contact with the formula or breast milk, only the side of the bottle, so maybe we're just being paranoid.
In any event, this system uses a knob with multiple time settings ranging from 1 to To figure out how many minutes you actually need to heat your bottle for, they include a handy little chart which we copied below. Basically, you're looking at minutes to warm a ounce bottle, which is right on par with the other systems on this list. We made a big mistake when using this system, however, that we want you to avoid! We made the mistake of pulling a bottle out after a couple of minutes to check its temperature.
What happens when you pull it out early is that the system thinks the water level is too low and starts to pump more water into the pot. Then, when you put the bottle back in, the entire systems over-flows onto the counter. That was annoying and a little dangerous given that it's really hot water. Overall, this is a pretty great bottle warmer, save for some minor issues. Who else recommends the Kiinde Kozii? You can check out the Kiinde Kozii Bottle Warmer here. This is a very similar concept to the First Years baby bottle warmer, but it does not include the cooler capability on the back.
Like the First Years, it uses a little pot for warming up the bottle, rather than using steam, making it much easier to clean and maintain. In our tests, the pot worked really well for warming up bottles of formula or breast milk, and we never had any issues of the milk being too cool or hot after warming.
To use the system, you place the baby bottle into the pot and then add enough water to fill ther reservoir up to the same level as the level of milk in the bottle. If the bottle is completely full, you can fill the reservoir up to about 1 cm below the top of the reservoir.
It has different heat settings based on how much milk is in the bottle. To warm 4 ounces of refrigerated milk, we put it on the first setting and it took about 4 minutes to get it to the proper baby milk temperature we checked it with one of our baby thermometers. To warm a larger 8 ounce bottle of milk, it took about 7 minutes on the high setting.
When you turn it on, the light turns orange. But you need to pay attention to it, as the system has no auto-off function when it's done. Instead you need to read the chart in their owner's manual to figure out how long to warm the bottle. So this baby bottle warmer is pretty simple and basic, it has no timer or auto-off function, and only a couple settings for warming. By the way, we found that this particular bottle warmer was able to fit our widest Tommee Tippee, Baby Brezza, and Comotomo baby bottles, which was awesome!
This system couples a bottle warmer on the front that heats and steams a little pot of water that you lower the bottle into, with a little cooler on the back that can fit 2 bottles. For the bottle warming aspect, we think this does the best job overall. Because it uses a little water pot rather than a complicated reservoir-based steaming system, it doesn't have the issue of slimy and gunky tubes and reservoirs to take care of.
It heats up the water that surrounds the bottle. You use one of the little vials hanging on the side to add some tap water into the pot: you add water up to the lower or upper fill line depending on whether you're heating a bottle with 4 ounces or 8 ounces of milk. The vials are a nice touch because you can fill them before the night, then you won't be stumbling in the dark trying to fill to the proper line. Once you add the water and rest the bottle inside, just press the button on the front.
The button has a light that will turn off when the bottle is ready.
