Is one side of the bottle flat or flatter, rather than the shape being a perfect circle?

there is one flat spot up and down the bottle for measurement of the liquid

It is pretty much a perfect circle and the bottom is a perfect circle. There is a flat panel on the back, where the measurements scale is slightly indented in. When you hold it in your hand you can tell where the flat panel is, but it still feels circular.

Actually I returned this item as it was not square completely, bad mold to be exact and order a round one, it was fine and no the top does not need to be completely flat except were the bowl sits on the top for it to seal correctly!

It's not entirely flat, but if I have to choose between the two, it is flat with rounded edges. It doesn't seem to be a problem though, it fits my hand nicely.

It is not a rounded tip. The sides are flat with a tip at the edge, if that makes sense!

Yes. The round side is meant for liquids & the oval for solids, both hold the same amount.

Should be flat.....That's weird may be defective or exposed to too much heat.

Some bottles have flat disks to put under the nipple for transport to prevent leaks. That's what it is for.

Yes, there is supposed to be a flat side to the tip. We have ordered two of these and both times they came that way. We are really pleased with this pump, it does a great job! Enjoy

Yes, more cylindrical than flat. I'd call it round. It is the spaghetti cutter.

These jars are shaped like a mason jar, flat sides with rounded corners. ;-)

The item is flat except for a small groove that runs along the front. I tried pouring a little water on it. Some of the water collected in the groove, but the rest went on the side of the pot.

Each side of the bottle is different. One side has a nearly flat diamond pattern, it allows the most heat to transfer. The height of the pattern is insignificant since it transfers heat as well as a totally smooth surface - but it is not smooth as a babies bottom, you can feel the tiny bit of texture. The other side is more deeply textured, with very narrow and soft ribs. This side transfers less heat, for times when the hot water inside is just too hot to be right next to a person. So to answer your questions, it is not perfectly smooth. Whether the diamond side would suit your needs is up to you. Hope this helps. Each side of the bottle is different.

Hello, the bottles I received were smooth sided. After my purchase I found them cheaper from a company in Southern California. If interested check out more beer.com Ben

One side is smooth. One side has grooves. I can't see them well enough to say if they're circular or not.

The sides as well as the rest of the bottle are very soft.One side is smooth and the other is ribbed,both will release the heat differently ,a plus.

The one's I bought before were not flattened. As long as they have not changed them they are normal bottle caps with color only on the outside like the picture. Hope that helps.

No, placing the wine bottle on its side not recommended. The product packaging states "Do not store flat!".
