Sterilizers

[Redshoes]

Hello again Mummies
I am quite interested in the microwave sterilizers for LO's bottles, just wondered if anyone had/used one and are they worth buying, against a more traditional water or steam one?
All advice and opinions greatly appreciated, again, I would greatly appreciate any advice before buying

we have a steriliser that does 6 bottles at once and tbh we had no probs with it ..

We bought an Avent express electric steamer.

But i find it so much quicker to just use milton steriliser fluid.

Microwave one sounds a lot of hassel.

milton takes 30mins?

microwave takes 6 mins and 200ml of water its much quicker and easier than either electric or cold water methods imo

True but thats not including the time it takes to stack the sterilisers things!

When i had mastitis and then thrush, i was having to express over night as well as day, and i was constantly needing a clean expresser ready.

Just putting your bits in a bowl is so much quicker- Yes you have to measure the water...... but you dont stand and watch it sterilise!

I THINK its just a little easier when yr really tired

Still, it is afterall, whaterver suits!!
