   Summary: perfect!
Absolutely perfect product for those first weeks after arrival of your baby. No need for pots,boiling water on the stove top...etc. Just toss your items, pour desired amount of water and push the button. Return to it later when you have time! Highly reccomended.

   Summary: Works perfectly with Born Free bottles as well
The sterilizer fits 6 BPA free Born Free bottles and their associated accoutrements (nipples, rings, caps, valves). It works flawlessly thusfar!

   Summary: Excellent. Time Saver.
It is time saver for us. It takes only 6 minutes to sterilize and can accommodate lots of items at once. We really like it and would recommend to everyone. It is more expensive than microwave varieties but i wouldn't use microwave for my kid.

   Summary: Great Product but doesn't sanitize toys pacifier holders etc.
I can't think of anything bad to say about the product itself in terms of how it functions etc. It is fairly straight forward to use and it served me well when I was sanitizing scores of bottles and pacifiers upon their initial purchase.

The way it works is you put the stuff you want to sanitize (bottles and/or their accessories and/or pacifiers) into the huge bin. They have a way to support bottles but I never used the mechanism because I used Dr. Brown's bottles and the bottle support mechanism only works with Avent bottles. So I just threw my Dr. Brown's bottles and accessories and pacifiers into the bin. Measured out 90 mL of water (measuring cup is included) put the lid on the thing, plugged it in, and pressed the button so that number 1 was selected (I never used the 24 hour sterilize option, for which one would select number 2). Then I released the button, pressed again (until the display would indicate that it was working), and that is it. When the unit is finished it will beep 5 times, and then you carefully remove the cap and wait for the items to cool. After you remove the contents, be sure to empty the water that remains in the unit, so that next time you can use it without worrying about dumping the water after you've loaded up the unit. All in all it's very easy. (See my comment in the end about the water.)

I definitely think this product is better than the microwave versions, which are cheaper but which I believe are a bit disgusting and risky for the baby. (Risky because we don't really know how the microwave affects the baby, and disgusting because one can never really disinfect the microwave properly.)

However, I must say that the product is useless now, which is why I gave it one star. I tried to use it to sterilize the MAM pacifier holder and it melted it. That is when I realized that the steam is too strong for most plastic toys etc and even if the steam doesn't destroy the product, heating it to such a degree may cause the baby harm (the heat may cause a chemical reaction that was not intended by the manufacturer when they designed the product).

I realize that what I should have bought was the Germ Guardian Nursery Sanitizer. It's cheaper than the Avent one and it can sanitize pacifiers, toys, and bottles. It's really a wiser choice in the long run. Now The Avent Sterilizer is just taking up space (it's rather large) in my kitchen cabinet.

And as the baby gets older, it ends up throwing almost everything on the floor, so I end up throwing all sorts of toys (even electronic ones) into the laundry, which takes time and deprives our baby of her toys.

If someone does decide to purchase this item, I suggest using DISTILLED water. If you use regular water (even bottled) there is a residue that remains in the unit (and it is better for the unit in the long run).
