Dr. Brown's Natural Flow MilkSPA Breastmilk and Bottle Warmer with Even and Consistent Warming

I bought this milk warmer specifically because I wanted to use it to warm up frozen bags of milk. It works well. I do have to thaw the edge of the frozen milk bag slightly with warm water before it fits, but only slightly. The main issue is it takes about 16 minutes to completely thaw a 4oz frozen milk bag. When your little one is crying, those 16 minutes last forever. But it does work. I'm not sorry I bought it, but I do wish it didn't take so long.

We love our Doctor Brown bottles. And it was really hard to find a bottle warmer that works great with the bottles. This one is amazing. It does take a little longer to warm up the bottles, but it is always perfect. The water last a while in the warmer.

I’ve used quite a few bottle warmers and they all didn’t live up to expectations. I finally gave in and splurged on this one. I am not disappointed! I love that you can choose between glass, plastic and bag. You can also choose frozen, cold or room temp. Then toggle through the bottle size and you’re good to go. It’s so incredibly easy to use. I’ve already recommended to several friends and will continue to do so.

This review is for the Milk Spa.I'm very disappointed in this milk warmer. It promises to warm milk to body temp, and it promises to preserve breast milk's nutrients. If the milk is being warmed to 118°, that is way too hot and nutrients in breast milk starts to burn off at 104°. As you can see pictured, I have 3oz milk in a glass bottle from fridge temp, and that was selected on the machine. There's no way to do half oz or milliliters, either. The only way we've figured out to use it is to reduce the amount by an oz.Also, this is from my own misinterpretation, so you may think so too, but this doesn't dethaw Frozen milk, it warms from frozen. This poses a problem for me as I freeze more in a bag than we use in a single feed, but once you warm milk, it needs to be used up in 2 hours and not re-stored in the refrigerator. So the frozen option is useless to me until the babe start taking 6 oz in a feed.Over-all, I'm disappointed. This was so expensive for it not to work as intended to.EDIT: UP FROM 2 STARS TO 4 STARS.We found how to change the timer for the milk. I thought the preset time was the only time it could do. So you can select the oz for the type of bottle and select the little thermometer button and Go over the to the arrows and adjust the time. 🤦‍♀️ I am not always a manual reader to be honest. But I made sure to read it for set up. I don't remember seeing that information. I still only give it 4 stars because it takes a long time to heat up milk. But now I know how to adjust it, thank goodness.

Update 12/17/21:It's been exactly a year. Apparently our bottle warmer has been leaking for a while as it damaged the top of our rolling island cart. I hesitate to use an electric appliance with a water leak. I see that the seal inside is warped and assume it has failed. It's going in the trash tomorrow.Original review:We use this device 7-8 times per day and have been using it for the past 6 weeks since our baby was born.It's a simple affair of filling with distilled water to the mark, then selecting where you kept the product you're trying to heat (room temp, fridge or freezer), and selecting the amount in OZ, as well as the type of container you're trying to heat up.Without a fail, this bottle warmer has overheated the milk or the formula every single run, until we realized that we have to use a setting for 1 or 2 oz less, in order to get the bottles heated properly.It's highly disappointing that such a well respected brand would get it so wrong on the most basic functionality, the one thing that this device has to do well.Now that we know, we're working around this issue by setting the volume of milk or formula we are warming up lower than it is to avoid cooking it, but it should not have to come to that.I am unimpressed and would not recommend this bottle warmer.

Best bottle warmer I’ve found thus far! Working for a year and it just keeps on going! Compact, beeps much like a microwave, so it’s not distracting in the least. Quiet too!

bueno, aunque hay que estar pendientes de la temperatura porque a veces queda muy caliente

Been using this for the last month and here are a few pros and cons.PROS:-lighted timer-easy to adjust-presets for glass, plastic, and milk storage bags along with different stored Temps (room temp, refrigerator, and freezer)-can adjust time, even with presets-memory to recall last setting used-ability to switch between ml and ozFits Dr brown and Philips Avent (9oz) bottles, no problemCONS:-Presets are often set too long, we had to reduce timing on each preset to prevent overheating-no window to check water level-difficult to open to fill-no warning of water level being too low, it will throw an error code if the thermostat heats the water too hot, but at that point you run the risk of scorching your milk-time adjustment is by second without the ability to hold up or down for faster adjustmentsOne thing to note which is more of a bottle issue - if you use the Dr brown bottles with the straw, it needs to be removed prior to heating otherwise milk can travel up it as its being heated, which is pretty annoying and why we moved to the Philips Avent because there isn't an issue with heating with their straw inserted.Biggest complaint is that it's difficult to open to refill with no fill window. Given how often you need to refill it (daily) I would have hoped for a quick fill opening or at least a window to monitor when it needs to be refilled.
