   Summary: Hate them!
These bottles leak. I have tried everything including reading the instructions. Why are instructions needed anyway to screw on a nipple!?! It should seem simple enough. Even when they don't leak initially when preparing the bottle and testing for leaks, they will leak eventually when the bottles are on its side such as falling over in the baby bag, or when feeding the baby.

   Summary: Level one newborn nipples too high flow
I bought this starter set and all of the stage/level one nipples were too high flow for my baby.

However, we used these baby's first week and she never had any problem with nipple confusion or preference.

   Summary: Sorry, it really does leak
I've been using regular plain old bottles, and loving them -- once you learn how to adjust the cap so they let in a fine stream of bubbles, you don't need these fancy systems.

But when we left our baby at daycare, the young women working there often didn't have the sophistication to use those old bottles correctly (don't get me started...) e.g. I'd come back and they'd tell me the baby didn't take his milk today... and I'd find the bottles screwed on so tightly the baby couldn't POSSIBLY have gotten any milk.

So I bought a set of Avent bottles, hoping they would be "no-brainers" for those idiots who work in our daycare. Unfortunately, I found two problems.

(1) The bottles may not leak when you feed the baby with them, but they certainly will leak if you transport them in a car, and they're not perfectly upright. So, after my 15 minute drive to daycare, the milk would be half spilled out of the bottles.

(2) A couple of the bottles leaked even while feeding the baby, and when i carefully examined the bottles, I saw the weren't quite perfectly round (at the lip, where the cap screws on). One other reviewer suggested that they don't leak, unless you don't set them up properly... I assure you, these bottles may leak even if you do everything perfectly.

So, I'm staying away from Avent. I tried one Dr. Brown's bottle, which wasn't half bad. But usually, I just buy a cheap set of Gerber nipples on a regular bottle, I'm careful when I leave the bottles in daycare that they're not too tightly screwed on, and that's the best arrangement. And far cheaper. Whatever you do, you'll need to periodically buy new nipples anyway, by the way!

   Summary: I READ THE INSTRUCTIONS- and WOW still leaked.
I had these bottles (which are quite pricey) when my daughter was born. These are what I registered for because everyone said they were the best. I am just telling you that after a few months, I dumped these for much cheaper bottles. I DID read instructions, I did call and email Avent for guidance. I am not a moron, I know how to assemble a bottle and I did go step by step with them and still, leaks. Before buying these, just ask yourself "If I have to read detailed instructions to put a bottle together, and it still might leak, is it really worth it?"

Trust this experienced mom. It's not.

   Summary: Stopped the leaking
I love these bottles because they do take care of the gas issue. I also love the compatibility of the different bottles and nipples. The leaking was a problem until I discovered that you put the nipple cover on before you attach it to the bottle not after. Then if it continues to leak let say after you've warmed it, remove the cover for feeding and undo the ring a bit and let air into the bottle, equalizing the pressure and tighten back up taking care that you do not overtighten. They haven't leaked since.
