Initially this steriliser was a godsend. After about 6 months we started seeing brown stuff in the bottom, apparently it’s normal and you need to scrub and descale. Then it became more frequent so it was every day or 2 we needed to scrub and descale. The normal 240ml bottles fit nicely but the bigger bottles don’t fit with the top rack for the teats which was an annoyance. I also don’t think it sterilises the colic inserts as well as the microwave steam method did.

Not to big so doesn’t take up that much bench space which is good. It’s also very easy to descale and clean. And has a short running time.

We used the Tommee Tippee Super-Steam Advanced Electric Steriliser and overall it does the job, but it wasn’t as practical for everyday use as I thought it would be.

When it works, it’s effective — bottles come out properly sterilised and it gives peace of mind, especially in those early newborn days. It’s also nice that it can fit a decent number of bottles at once, which is helpful if you’re batch preparing feeds.

However, it does take up a fair bit of bench space, and I found it a bit annoying having to clean and descale it regularly to keep it running properly. The cycle time can also feel a bit slow when you’re in a rush and juggling feeds.

Another downside is that once you’re done sterilising, everything needs to be used or stored quickly to avoid re-contamination, which can feel a bit fiddly during busy days.

Overall, it’s reliable and does what it promises, but the ongoing maintenance and convenience factor is why I’d rate it 3 stars.
