Can this be used to sterilize other bottles like the medela baby bottles?

It seems like anything you can fit inside the container would be able to be sterilized.

Can this be used with stainless steel bottles?

Metal can go in the microwave, it's very thin metal that can't (think tinfoil, or plates with tiny bits of metal). The inside of your microwave is actually surrounded by a big sheet of metal. Metal causes the waves in the microwave to bounce off of it, keeping them inside of the microwave and heating up the food. If you put a stainless steel pan filled with water with a cover inside the microwave and turn it on, nothing is going to blow up, but the water will not heat up either. The stainless steel will just cause the waves to bounce off of it.

Can I use the bottles right after I sterilize them since they don't come out dry?

I am not sure. But I personally use them wet. Cause now the water is sterile to.
