Can I use baby bottle warmers for Playtex drop in liners system? I was wondering if anyone uses bottle armers for the pllaytex drop in systems?thanks

I tried this with the drop ins. I found that I still had clumps of frozen milk in the liner after I used this warmer, and most of the time the warmer kind of "warped" the plastic. I had better luck heating up a mug of water in the microwave and just sitting the drop in liner in that mug for several minutes! And the best part is: I returned the warmer and the mug method is FREE! :)

I tried to use them in a bottle warmer, and it was an epic fail. I just filled up a large bowl with hot water from the faucet, and the refrigerated bottle was lukewarm in about 3 minutes.

No! Natural flow is level 1, slowest flow is level 0. Dr. Brown level 0 is known as for preemie which you have to purchase it separately. For my baby he use preemie nipples by different brands for his first month, otherwise the milk keep leaking from his mouth and occur choking.As comparesion, Dr. Brown is the best for no question. Never use playtex if you don't want to kill your baby.

No, they're pretty much 4oz liners, although you can fill a little more than that especially if you get the pre-shaped drop-in liners rather than the bags. On the drop-ins, the 4oz. line doesn't go all the way to the rim of the bottle, so you could get a bit more in if you'd like but not much. If you want to put in 5oz or more, go for the 8oz liners. To me, that's the beauty of this system of Playtex bottles... I had the 8oz bottle but, for the vast majority of his time on the bottle my son only drank about 4oz at a time so I just used the 4oz liners in the 8oz bottle--no problem--and never had to buy sets of 4oz bottles PLUS sets of 8oz bottles.

I have Dr Brown wide bottles. And they fit properly. I dont know about Playtex.

I don't think any plastic bottles are truly safe to use with a warmer even with the bottles being BPA-free, but that being said-- I think this one doesn't really get that hot and it has a shut-off, so I think it wouldn't cause the bottle to melt or anything drastic like that. Because I have to scald my milk, I have another warmer that gets much hotter and so I had bought two metal bottles to use and I always just use those with any warmer now.

We used ours with a bottle warmer and they worked fine, although you do need to wipe them off good after taking them out b/c (as noted in another answer) a lot of steam condenses in the bottom rim.

I used the playtex pump (which I do not recommend) and I used all Playtex nursers bottles and nipples so I don't know if the Dr. Brown nipples will work. Sorry.

Yes. I used our bottle warmer with the bottles all the time, but I did reduce the time because stainless conducts heat more quickly than glass or plastic. Also, in a pinch, you can run hot water over the bottle, shake it, and have lukewarm milk/formula.

I used mine in our bottle warmer. But make sure the tops are on good, so water doesn't accidentally get in.

I'm not sure which bottle you're using but if it's a fatter bottles- it would work. I used playtex normal ones and they were too skinny

Hi No really I used only at night my baby is 11 month old and she still having a feed around 11 pm and 5 am so we used the warmer at night so we dont have to rush to the kitchen . I use Dr Bown Bottles also some gerber bottles and the warmer seems to be ok, you have to kidda find the minutes that adjust the quantity of milk you are putting then for example in a 8oz formula we let it warm for 3 minutes if the water is at room temperatureI hope this answer your questionthanksaya

Well, it will not be hermetically sealed. There always will be some air in the bottle. I think you would be better of with some other containers. A day or two I would say yes. No, they won't leak. Just don't use a bottle warmer because they will leak. Annoying I know. My baby is 8 months and it's the only bottle I use and I only own one! It's easy to clean and assemble. The angle is cool. They only down side is that you can't heat the liquid in the bottle.

They don't seal on their own. However, playtex makes a breastmilk storage kit. You'd put the liners on a ring then screw the lid on.

I would say no, because I had the tall, thin Playtex bottles and could only fit three. It is pretty narrow - I didn't have a problem with height but I think the TT bottles are wider than Playtex. Hope that helps!

I urge you to not use the Platex Nursing Necessities breast pump. If you need further reasons why I would be glad to tell you in email and show you proof of how terrible it can damage your body. I am not sure about how to convert your bottles. I just wanted to give my two cents about Playtex. Kristen Kristensutra@yahoo.com

I don't have a definitive answer because I didn't use Avent bottle warmers, but this is something I found for you, which indicates a variety of shapes and sizes can fit: "Warms Classic Bottles, Classic Toddler Cups, and Food Jars You can use Philips AVENT Classic bottles, Classic toddler cups, and food jars with this warmer. Simply place baby food jars and filled bottles directly in the unit. When they're heated, put the contents of the jars in the included bowl to keep warm." I hope this info. helps.

I use playtex drop in bottles. So just run water from faucet in them and it comes out the holes. My mom just places bottle in a warm bowl of water too. It works. Takes approximately 3-5 minutes!
