The First Years Gentle Warmth Digital Bottle Warmer makes it easy to heat up baby bottles the better way. The warm water bath allows for more even and consistent heating and stays warm longer than steaming. While any warm water bath bottle warmer will take a few minutes longer than steaming, the benefits make those extra minutes worthwhile. This gentle heating method is perfect for breast milk and formula, and great for baby food too as you introduce your baby to purees. The digital touchscreen lets you easily customize for precise heating times and temperatures and you can select your preferred warming option with a simple toggle. Choose to warm from room temperature, refrigerated or use it to defrost frozen breast milk. This master multi-tasker also features a sterilizer function giving you multiple products in one sleek and convenient package.

It warms milk and food really quickly and efficiently but gets really, really nasty. Even after washing it with vinegar every day, it got smelly and gross after 4-5 bottle warmings. You get what you pay for.

I mean that positively! It’s an inexpensive bottle warmer! It is what it is and it does the job. Some trial and error on how much time/water it takes to get the bottle the appropriate temperature. Sure, you have to swirl the milk around to mix in the hot spots- it’s barely even worth mentioning. We have hard water and there is the brown staining that everyone talks about but we clean it as best we can and keep on keepin on. Don’t feel the need to “upgrade” our warmer beyond this, if you want the bells and whistles.. feel free but honestly this is a good value.

This is on the cheaper end for a bottle warmer but it gets the job done. It’s a bit challenging to time it at first but, I found that filling the water tube to the top will warm up a refrigerated bottle right. After some usage there was burns/rust on the bottom but not much of a dealbreaker for me.

I love this warmer because it is fast, easy and it’s touch no buttons. Unlike other brands that takes about 6 minutes just to warm up a 2oz baby bottle. Imagine your little one crying bad in the middle of the night for food and you have to wait a while 6 minutes!!! I highly recommend this product and you can NOT BITE the price. I highly recommends it. You and your baby will be happy for buying this.

I purchased a bottle warmer for use upstairs in the bedroom. I was really tired of going downstairs using the old bottle in a warm cup of water method. This bottle warmer does the trick. It’s easy. It’s affordable. As a parent, don’t waste too much money on the other products with all the gimmicks that you really won’t use, trust me.

I can't believe the bad reviews. Do people know that this costs fifteen bucks? FIFTEEN BUCKS !!! I mean seriously, what do people expect for 15 bucks?

First our opinion (my wife and mine) about this product:

We bought this to heat up the milk in our First Years bottles: (

The First Years Soothie BPA Free Starter Set ). Up to now we've only used the small 4 oz bottles, our son is now 5 months old. We think it's great, just measure and add the water, turn on and... done. Fast, easy, simple. The milk (we only use formula, no more breast milk) is 95% of the times just right and ready for our baby.

Now, what is our process? Because different people have different situations. We bought a thermos (

Thermos Nissan 2456P 18-Ounce Stainless-Steel Hydration Bottle ) so we boil the water and put it there. When it's eating time we make the bottle with the hot water from the thermos. If the water is no longer hot enough then we use the bottle warmer. So we don't heat up from the fridge or freezer. If you need to heat up from a really cold fridge or from the freezer then BUY SOMETHING ELSE, not a fifteen dollar product that won't suit you.

Second our opinion about some of the negative comments, written by Seth Meyers from SNL (not really):

-Requires constant watching: Really? A machine that turns a bit of water into hot vapor requires constant watching? What are you watching? The vapor? It just goes up. No seriously if you take the bottle in and out that will do nothing, maybe screw up the process of correctly heating up the milk. STEAM HEAT MAKES NO HOT SPOTS. You don't have to constantly watch it, it just takes a few tries to get the right measure of water and then you're good. Still shake the bottle after you take it out I mean use common sense.
-The bottom gets rusty: Really? Things get dirty when they're used? Really? Well clean it up with a wipe or a bit of soap and water or something my wife says it's very easy.
-Doesn't heat the milk enough. Really? It must be very refrigerated because it works fine for me. Seriously, if the milk is too cold to begin with then don't get the cheap fifteen dollar warmer use common sense. Description says bottle warmer not heater, not defroster.
-Measure device is hard to read: Really? I mean really really? Are you like serious here? Turn the light on, put your glasses on I mean what are you doing that you can't read this? Someone said it was hard to read at night.. really? IT's NIGHT!!! IT'S DARK !!! What wrong with you ?!?!? Do you think the people that designed this thought maybe someone will use it in their night stand at night in the dark ??? It's a kitchen device !!! Does your kitchen have a light? Or are you using this to turn your bedroom into a steam room?? Gosh get over yourselves, use the thing in a well lit area, how tough is that? Now personally our son now sleeps all night so we don't make bottles at night but when we did we had the hot water from the thermos so no need for heating up. Just had to heat up the water in the evening (after the water was in the thermos all day) or in the morning (after the water was in the thermos all night) so again problem solved.
-It only has measures for 4oz and 9oz, mine are different, it takes trial and error: Really? The fifteen dollar device does not magically calculate your bottles size, shape, how much milk there is and its initial temperature and the final temperature you want? OMG GEEEEEEETTTTTTTT OVEERRR YOURRRSELVESSSS Seriously I can't believe these people !! It costs fifteen bucks!!! What do you expect it to do???? Does common sense evade the people that buy this product? Yes it takes a bit of trial and error and then you'll be fine. I don't see what the deal is, I use measure 4 for half a bottle or emptier and 6 for a full bottle. Done. You could also buy the first years bottles, they're only 17 bucks, you get a lot of them, they're great and they have the awesome soothie shape and pacifier included.
-The bottle is hot at the end and hard to get out: Really? The bottle is hot when the heating process is over? I wonder how that happened!! No seriously, if you put a small bottle without the cap on then it will be hard to get out. So... put the cap on... problem solved.

Now you might have a defective product, it happens so return it and try again.

Now my personal opinion, the baby can drink the bottle sometimes a bit hotter, sometimes a bit colder (I'm not saying really hot or really cold, just shades of "warm"), it doesn't always have to be the exact same temperature. Baby won't die if the milk is not always the exact same temperature.

So you get what you pay for, don't expect this to be a magical device, notice the price. Want something better? Then don't be cheap and buy something more expensive. Don't blame the device on unrealistic expectations.

After a few tries we figured out how to use. My mother in law uses daily to warm up my breastmilk for our baby in MAM bottles. She has been using it for about 3 months and we have had no issues or problems with.

I love this warmer. I use it for when my grandchild comes over. This is convenient so his parents don't have to bring extra items with them. Perfect and it works exactly like it suppose to and saves time.

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2022

This warmer works great but it can get really hot as well. It warms up quickly which is great but it gets really hot. For a 5oz bottle of formula or breast milk at room temperature, the 1 minute to 1 1/2 minute line is more than enough to warm the milk. If the breast milk in the same bottle is refrigerated, the 2 minute line is sufficient. Anything more than that I find the milk to be way to hot for a baby’s mouth. Just to be safe I always test the milk with a drip or two on my wrist. I’m glad I have done that otherwise there would have been times that it would have burned my baby’s mouth. Overall I recommend this product but I recommend using less water than recommended and always test it first before you give it to your baby.

4.0 out of 5 stars Versatile, any bottle size and shape fits.

Reviewed in Canada on July 3, 2018

We love this bottle warmed because pretty much any bottle in the market fits in this product. We had to change bottles several times because our baby was very gassy and we tried several brands before settling on Dr Browns bottles, that was not an issue with this bottle warmer. It has an extra ring that helps skinnier bottles fit and removing that ring you can put wider bottles. The only issue we have is that since it's such a versatile opening the vapor escapes and it doesn't heat up the bottles as well. You can fix the problem a couple of ways:
1. Increase the amount of water you put on, but that increases the amount of time waiting for the bottle. Our baby is an impatient little lady so that didn't work well for us.
2. We settled on this simple solution. Put a light cloth on top of the bottle while its warming. This traps the escaping vapor and warms faster and better.
Otherwise we have used this product a lot, even brought it with us everywhere when traveling, and it keeps working fine. We really love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars This thing is awesome!!!

Reviewed in Canada on November 2, 2016

Once you figured the right measure of water for your bottle size and quantity, it's awesome. It heats my son's bottle in under 3 minutes. I always refill the measure right after each use which makes the warmer pretty much 4 am zombie mode proof : put water in, put bottle in, push button, rest head on cupboard for 3 minutes, bring milk to baby. It's better than any other warmers I've seen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good tool!

We used to heat his milk up in a bowl of hot tab water, but after a 2 hour feed - we needed a new solution. This bottle warmer auto shut off, works quick (we use 3 min for 125ml in a Medela bottle), and easy to use. The on button lights up when pressed, automatically turns off when done (other brands dont have this feature). After having this bottle warmer, our little one consistently drinks more and finishes in less than 30 min. He enjoys the milk more and dozes off to sleep after the feed.

As one of the reviewer recommended, we used a small cloth to cover the warmer to trap the steam in. Shake it well before serving so the temperature is evenly distributed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed

Reviewed in Canada on December 4, 2018

Not impressed.

I wanted to love this item, but I kind of hate it.

It doesn't heat bottles with any kind of consistency. One time it'll be too cold, and the next time piping hot, meanwhile there was no difference in bottles or measurements.

I have also had issues using Dr. Brown's bottles with it. They seem to "spew" milk up the spout while heating resulting in the unit running longer as it boils down the milk and gives you an empty bottle if you're not careful!

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this product

I don't recommend this product.... ours is NOT easy to turn on by any means literally takes too hands and some wiggling to get ours to turn on. And to top it off when you have a screaming infant in your hands... makes it a battle all on it own. There is NO temperature setting so either you stand there and test it every couple of minutes or you'll get boiling milk (no word of a lie)

And to top it off..LOOK NOTHING LIKE THE PHOTO.
