Dr. Brown's bottles are a life saver!

These bottles definitely help to reduce colic. The thing I love the most about them is the fact they are BPA free. It is nice to know you aren't putting unnecessary chemicals in your baby's body.
These bottles are great because my son had such bad colic he was screaming when he would eat. The vent system in these bottles virtual eliminates any air from getting to your baby's tummy. The only downfall to these bottles is they are a little more labor intensive to wash and put together. You have one or two more pieces to put together over regular bottles. However, if your baby has any amount of colic it is definitely worth the extra few minutes of assembly for their tummy's sake.
One thing to note is at one point they began making these bottles with the ounce markers marked as raised, clear numbers. This made is EXTREMELY difficult to see how full you were filling up the bottle. However, I have since bought some and the markers on them are blue, making it much easier to read the ounces you are making. It is not that big of a deal unless you're doing a 2:30 am feeding and trying to fill the bottle up without being able to see the markings.
Overall, these are the best bottles on the market. They truly do help eliminate colic and keep your baby safe and out of harmful chemicals way like BPA.

Good Bottles, a little complicated
»
These are my favorite bottles for my little guy. They hold enough liquid and they are easy to handle for both of us. The only draw back is they do have a lot of pieces with six parts as compared to most bottles four. We do notice less burping when using these as compared to others.
We have noticed that with repeated washing these bottles don't hold ink very well so we have to put the names back on the bottles about once a week for the daycare. Haven't had any issues with the pre-printed labels on the bottles though.
Four stars just because of the extra parts to wash!

Opt for the glass ones
»
I read a review of the glass Dr. Brown bottles that complained that the painted-on ounces markings wore off in the dishwasher, so I got two glass bottles and two of these BPA-free PP ones just to see. The big drawback is that the plastic ones hold in smells. I made the mistake of washing them once with Mrs. Meyer's dish soap, and they are basically ruined because they are now permanently honeysuckle scented, which is gross. Even just running them through the dishwasher with scent-free Method dishwasher tabs caused them to retain the scent of hot, washed food. It's really not something I would ever want to make my baby smell while drinking. Get the glass--you can hand wash them (it takes TWO minutes) if you're worried about losing the paint (which hasn't happened to me after 7 months) and they rinse clean, every time.

Harder to see..
»
The bottle is great except that it harder to see because of its' translucent color especially at night. I wish they could come up with a BPA-free bottle that is really as clear as a glass. That would be great! Over-all, 4 stars.

Great bottles!

We have been using the Avent bottles with our son for about 3 months. They continuously leaked and he spit up a lot while feeding. We decided to try Dr Brown's and were pleasantly surprised at how well they worked. Yes, there are more parts to clean, but it is really not that difficult and well worth it considering how much better the baby feeds with these. I have already noticed less gas and he does not spit up while eating. I will continue using these from now on. The only issue is that they do not fit well in the Avent sterilizer, but Dr. Brown makes their own sterilizer. It is cheaper than Avent and you get 2 free bottles with it. I wish someone had told me about these bottles before I wasted so much money on Avent.
