The dry function is amazing, I wash my bottles and breast pump parts and then dry them off in the steriliser, followed by a UV sterilising cycle.
The unit itself is extremely useful and makes cleaning and sanitation of baby equipment very easy!
On the pricier end when it comes to sterilising but so convenient- able to go from wet to dry & sterilised in 29 mins. Would recommend for parents wanting to save time and effort!
I tried a few but this one is the best.Bottles are dry and sterilised.Best on the market.
Highly recommend.
Edit: I registered the device under the warranty, I emailed the company and they were very quick to respond and a replacement unit is on the way.
Doesn’t hold too many bottles at a time (we manage to fit 3-4) but as I’m breastfeeding it’s not an issue. Can also fit my breast pump and a bottle in together easy enough which is what I got it for.
It’s really easy to use and clean too so overall really happy with it, no messy water leakages or problems with limescale due to our hard wate
They replaced it quickly and it works well
I swear by a bottle steriliser as I believe every parent should owe one and I always buy new instead of recycle previous ones.
This isn’t a brand I would normally go for (Vital Baby) but thought last baba so let’s see what else is available on the market.
With a retail price of 109.99, a bit more then my normal brand I use as it don’t come with any additional items like bottles, dummies etc.
Reading the description and the box it sounds like Sterilisers have improved since I last bought my one around 4 years ago.
It’s a advanced Pro UV steriliser & dryer which will kill 99.9% of all germs in 7 minutes – this all ready sounds amazing as I’m feeling more nervous especially with covid and other germs around at the moment.
This is a 3 in 1 unit which provides you to sterilise items like bottles, toys and mainly any thing even phones ? ? (not 100% sure how that all works but would be a bit nervous to put my phone in) It also drys and can be used to store items.
It’s slightly larger compared to other brands I have used before but it’s a lot better looking so will fit prefect in my new kitchen.
Looking at the manual booklet there are many functions to be used but it looks quite easy to use – time will tell and I will update my review once the sleepless nights sets in.
Comes complete with a internal basket which I really like and seems the prefect addition to parents.
This makes life so much easier, it fitted around four bottles in and even fitted breast pump in there too. THe bottles were both smaller and the larger 240ml sizes. It is such a quick cycle at only 30 minutes to both sterlise and dry, this is much easier than other models that i have used. You have three different functions of sterilise, dry and store which is a great last option. It is very easy to use and comes with the manual as needed
Great size for kitchen worktop. not too big or small but around the size of other kitchen appliances. The look of the UV steriliser also fits in well with the kitchen and doesn’t look out of place.
It did come with my address label on the box so ensure you click gift option if you do not want this. Other than that it is very high quality and i don’t have any issues
This UV steriliser is so easy to use, much better than my original method of just chucking all my babies bottles and teeth in a pan of boiling water. The device is rather large, it’s another kitchen machine on your worktop but while your baby is little and still drinking from a bottle it’s totally worth the space it takes up.
This device doesn’t clean your bottles, so you have to give them a good clean first but once washed you just put them in while still wet. The steriliser will then either sterilise or dry the items for you. Or you can click auto-mode, this will dry, sterilise and then go into ‘store’ mode to keep the items sterile for 72 hours.
Cool thing is, that this isn’t just useful for baby items. I was making some Kombucha the other day and I used this steriliser to sterilize the small glass bottles to avoid the drink getting spoiled. I also used it to sterilize some jam jars when I was making homemade jam. So, yes it’s a big investment but it makes life with a baby easier and it can also come in handy for sterilising other things.
This is a review for Vital Baby Nurture Advanced pro UV steriliser & Dryer – Artic White.
This is a baby bottle steriliser that is not like the others available. This one sterilises products using UV light. There is no water involved. This steriliser will sterilise within 7 minutes and dry in 17 minutes. It can do both in 29 minutes.
It is highly energy efficient and is versatile. It can be used for baby bottles, dummies, breast pumps etc. You can put plastics, glass bottles and silicone inside this steriliser.
It seems competitive on price when compared to other sterilisers. Overall, I am happy with this product and will be perfect for me to clean my babies bottles with.
Arrived in branded box in perfect condition.
Was excited to use this UV light steriliser, at last technology has caught up with baby care.
Technology is amazing, just uses UV light to sterilse the bottles, teats, and dummies no need for water and steam. Bottles don’t come out of steriliser boiling hot or wet they come out ready to use.
Super fast as well, has four different modes. You can just sterilise bottles and cycle takes 7mins to complete but I use auto mode which dry clean bottles then sterilisers bottles and this full cycle takes 29mins.
Only issue I have is you can only clean 4 bottles during on cycle, it would be good if they did an extra large option that could fit in 2 more bottles.
Overall, amazing product which will change the industry in how we all sterilise our bottles. Game changer.
I would recommend this product.
I absolutely love this steriliser. It has ample space that can fit four big bottles and a tray to hold all the loose bits such as teats and caps, all very well laid out.
The steriliser does four modes
1. 29mins full cycle drying and sterilising
2. 17mins drying only
3. 7mins sterilising
4. Storage mode for 72hours, it does the full cycle of drying and sterilising and then a 1min sterilising every 1 hour
It is worth noting that you are supposed to wash the items first, shake off any excessive water but not supposed to put any soaking wet items in.
This steriliser is not just for bottles but it can do almost anything that fits in, such as phones, keys or small toys, which is really handy. It does say on the instruction no latex material as it may disintegrate. Some items where the light cannot be reach on one side will need to flip it and repeat the sterilising cycle for a complete protection.
In comparison to handheld UV light, all the UV light here is contained in the box and out of sight, which is a lot safer, no chance of it exposing to skin or eyes which may cause damages.
The build-quality of this steriliser is top top notch. The hinge and the locking latch and release all feel top quality.
It has an inlet vent on top of the box where you will need to leave it uncovered. There is a HEPA filter at the back which can easily be replaced.
Overall, this steriliser is simple to use, well-built and giving me the peace of mind in need in the current situation, I do recommend this product!
I’ve always used microwave sterilisers for my previous babies so I was really excited to try this UV steriliser by Vital Baby. Takes up little space on the kitchen worktop and the outside is plastic so easy to wipe clean. No water or sterilising tablets are needed either!
Large enough for 6 bottles plus there’s a rack for teats and dummies to sit on. I love how there’s no heat so bottles are ready to be removed and used instantly. If you’re happy for the bottles to be wet still then the sterilise program only takes 7 minutes. To include the drying after then it’s 17 minutes.
Very easy to use and the lid has touch tontrol buttons on top to select the function you’d like to use. Sterilised bottles can be stored for up to 3 days. I find this fab as I put this on at night and then they’re still clean in the morning.
I’ve read that other branded UV sterilisers can stain bottles but I’ve not experienced this problem at all.
Can also be used for toys.
Really impressed with this baby bottle steriliser. It’s amazing!!! Have used branded ones in the past and hands down this has got to be the best one I’ve ever used.
It uses the latest UV LED light technology to kill 99.99% of bacteria, mould and viruses in just 7 mins without the fuss of having to use chemicals, water or heat which traditional sterilisers tend to use.
The unit itself is so sleek, compact, lightweight and very modern looking which looks good and sits well in our kitchen.
It’s so easy to use with 4 straightforward modes; Sterilise, Dry, Auto and Store.
It’s also very versatile that you can sterilise other things such as jewellery, mobiles and watches which my husband has done so and been very delighted with the results.
At 129.99 yes it’s very expensive however it’s such a great investment and saves so much time. Highly recommended.
The steriliser arrived safely, and it comes well packaged inside a nicely illustrated retail box.
The overall quality of the unit is very good, everything feels durable and well put together. The unit is good size, taking about the same amount of space as a double toaster. Its big enough to fit four 240ml bottles at the same time, of course you can put many other different items inside it like keys, mobile phone, breast pumps, etc.
The machine has four different operating modes; a sterilising mode which takes only seven minutes to complete the process, a dry mode which completes the drying process in 17 minutes and uses the HEPA filter to trap dust, mould, bacteria and virus particles as small as PM2.5, auto mode which performs a drying cycle before sterilising the items taking around 29 minutes, and finally a store mode completes a full 29-minute sterilising and drying cycle, and then activates the bacteria killing UV LED’s for 1 minute, every hour, for up to 3 days.
When operating the unit is very quiet and it features a removable stainless-steel basket to put smaller items inside. A device like this is such a time saver compared with methods of old, there are no liquids or tablets to use, and the process is much simpler and easier to perform.
Overall, I think this is an excellent steriliser and a worthy upgrade over the old model. It looks nice and modern, and I’m pleased with the general quality of it. I feel it represents good value for money for what you are getting I’m sure anyone that wants a steriliser will be very happy with this new model. I’m more than happy to recommend this item and I feel it’s worth the full five stars!
Comes really well packaged. The machine is mainly grey in colour with a control panel on the top. The machine is quite big, bigger than our electric steriliser, but not overly big for the kitchen worktop. It’s really easy to set up and use. Wash your bottles, teats and dummies in warm soapy water, rinse and drain before putting them in the machine. Selected the function you want. Theres 4 modes to choose from. Auto mode; 29 minutes which dries and then sterilise. Sterilise only mode; only 7 minutes where you can sterilise everything from bottles, dummies, toys and every keys and remotes. Dry mode; 17 minute drying cycle for use after you’ve washed and cleaned the bottles before you sterilise. Store mode; 72 hour store cycle, dries and sterilises and then keeps sterilising for 1 minute every hour for 3 days. The uv leds are all installed ready to give, this has up to a 20000 hour life span. The machine safety destroys 99.99% of bacteria without any heat, steam or harsh chemicals. The maintenance is pretty minimal, no topping up with water or constantly descaling, it’s just as simple as wiping down. The display screen is clearly visible. A button on the front to open the lid. The buttons are touchscreen and respond instantly when pressed. Although it takes longer than standard steam sterilisation, 29 minutes drying and sterilising is really good and like you can use the store mode and it keeps sterilising. You can use for any brand of bottles and it even has a little tray for dummies and smaller items. It is a really impressive machine and is easy and straightforward to use. Really quite roomy inside, you’re able to fit quite abit in. Really love this, weve switched to using uv for bottles now.
Pushing the large easy access button on the front opens the compartment lid where you will find the main container. This features an extremely mirrored inner to reflect the UV rays around. The container is large enough for multiple items and has a removable metal rack for smaller items such as bottle teats and lids.
I love the top clear control panel and touch buttons as well as the fact that after selecting your desired program, the number of minutes appears in the grey lid, clearly indicating how much time is left.
The included instructions are nice and clear and the four different modes give a good level of versatility to the steriliser. It is also reasonably quiet in operation. The air drying being the noisiest and the UV function silent as you would expect.
There is a safety function where if the lid is opened then the chosen program, including the potentially dangerous UV function, stops immediately so there is no chance of accidental eye damage from the UV rays.
Please note that you will need to change the HEPA filter that is a part of the steriliser every 6 months and this is located at the bottom of the unit (see photos). The instructions say that they are available to purchase from the Vital Baby website but I couldn’t find them there or listed to buy on Amazon so I feel this could be a point of concern in the future. They also don’t list the part number for the HEPA filter. So that is my only (potentially major) issue with the unit and is why I’ve given it only 4 stars at this time.
If however when you are reading this review Vital Baby have compatible replacement HEPA filters for sale, then you can count this as a worthy 5 star, quality steriliser. Throw in the added benefit that it can also be used to sterilise non-baby equipment via UV such as phones, headphones etc, and it now has a potentially longer useful life than the more traditional steam sterilisers (which are only really useful whilst bottle feeding).
In these pandemic days, having a baby can be quite worrying ensuring that infection-control to ensure baby safety, so investing in a steriliser that can give you ultimate peace of mind is a good investment from my viewpoint. During this pandemic I’ve known mums with Covid and babies born prematurely because of that, so investing in this vital baby advanced pro baby bottle steriliser, although expensive, is money well spent. And of course it can also sterilise many other household and personal items, which is very handy at the best of times, but during this Covid pandemic is even more useful.
The unit has three modes for different uses, with the superfast UV light seven minute function, being quite amazing. It’s also great for sterilising medical equipment and the HEPA filter is ideal for removing allergens, so if you or your child has severe allergies then this machine can help keep those at bay too. In use you can 1) use as a UV steriliser for any piece of equipment that fits inside the large unit, 2) you cam wash bottles/equipment and the unit can dry and sterilise them, 3) sterilise and store mode, which dries and sterilises then stores the content with blasts of UV every hour for up to three days to keep the contents sterilised and ready to use when needed.
So fabulous piece of kit, that’s not just for babies. It has excellent build quality and well worth the investment from my viewpoint for any household.
Baby bottle sterilisers have certainly come a long way over the past few years, gone are the days of bottles floating in a tank full of water, mixed with sterilising liquid or tablets. It is so much easier these days with sterilising units like this.
The bottle steriliser is quite large, similar in looks and size to a deep fat fryer. The outside is made from attractive looking white plastic that has ribs running from top to bottom giving this a stylish appearance. On the front is a large button which when pressed releases the lock, allowing the lid to gently rise a few inches. On top is a grey glass like surface that has five touch sensitive buttons, just touch the appropriate symbol to activate it. The available buttons are: Auto mode, Dry mode, Sterilise mode, Store mode and Power.
Inside of the steriliser is made from super shiny stainless steel, this is mirror like in appearance. This shiny surface allows the UV light to be reflected to reach all corners of what’s inside being sterilised. On one side is a lift out stainless steel basket, this can be used to place smaller items like teats and bottle caps inside, with the bottles being placed in the larger storage area.
This has 3 different functions: Sterilise, Dry and Store. The bottles should be clean before placing in the unit as it will only sterilise, it will not clean. Sterilisation can be carried out quite quickly as it’s claimed all that is needed is just 7 minutes. Drying is carried out after washing and before sterilising, this will take around 17 minutes. Store mode will keep the contents sterile for 72 hours, after that time you will need to run the sterilising process again. The ‘Auto’ mode will carry out all 3 functions, one after the other. Just clean the bottles, arrange them within the unit and press Auto. The unit will first dry the bottles, then sterilise and then proceed on to the store mode. So essentially, ‘Auto’ is a set and forget mode that prepares the bottles for you and keeps them fresh, ready for use up to 72 hours.
The build quality of this steriliser is high, it looks good and appears to do a great job. Plus, it is so easy to use!

Thank you for reading my review, I hope you have found it helpful.
Incredibly versatile; the unit thoroughly sterilises bottles and dries them, ready for feeding in around 29 minutes. Controlled using a touch panel control on the top of the unit. The steriliser offers 4 separate modes; sterilise, dry, sterilise and dry & store. The Vital Baby steriliser isn’t just for bottles, because of it’s size it can be used to sterilise other items such as toys, key and cosmetic brushes etc. The unit can be used to store bottles, keeping them sterilised and clean for up to 3 days.
Inbuilt HEPA filter minimises/removes dust and other harmful particles from the unit.
Compact and small enough to keep on the side, doesn’t take up too much space – is very portable and lightweight. I really like the overall look of the steriliser, looks very sleek. Excellent quality; performs well and as intended, reliable. Does not make much noise when running a cycle; whisper quiet. Recommended!
I had seen my neighbours different branded one and they said it really makes bottle prep so much easier and its very quick, so I had a look around and decided to give this one a go. ITs a lovely little compact unit and worktop space wise it’s about the same footprint as my 4-slice toaster so not too big and fine to be left out on the side to not only clean the bottle but also to store them in as well.
I love the look of it as well, it’s nice to have a good looking cleaner on the side and it only take 30mins for a clean and dry cycle, I do recommend just opening the lid for a little while once the cycle has finished to allow it to breathe before you then might just leave the bottle in there for storage.
Overall, it isn’t cheap at 129.99 currently but oh my god the amount of time it saves you when cleaning bottles etc its worth every penny and I think better than some of the more commonly known brands. Love it!
This steriliser is better looking than the old one, and comes with better, faster functions too.
There are four operating modes:- Sterilise Mode, where the UV LED light sterilises in just seven minutes, Dry Mode, which completes the drying process in 17 minutes, and the built in HEPA filter removes minute particles of dust, bacteria etc, Auto Mode that dries the bottles, and then automatically starts the sterilisation process, and Store Mode, which completes the dry and sterilisation process, and then activates the UV sterilising lights for 60 seconds every hour, for up to three days, so you can keep things in the steriliser, knowing they are being kept absolutely clean for when you need to use them.
The unit is small enough to sit on a small area of a kitchen worksurface, and is very quiet.
Basically you can use this to sterilise anything you like, from bottles, to bowls, cutlery, cups, and even mobile phones, or other items that get contaminated through daily use. If it fits inside, you can sterilise it.
It’s a brilliant little appliance for any mother with a baby, and reasonably priced too. My sister in law says she wishes she had waited for this new model, as she only purchased hers a few weeks ago.
You don’t need any sterilising fluid, just wash out your bottles (or other items), and then leave this machine to dry and sterilise them.
The UV LED’s should last around 20,000 hours, so if looked after, this product should allow a new mum to use it for many years. It saves so much time, and it is really reassuring to know that anything that comes out of it, and comes into contact with baby, is as clean as it possibly can be. It’s so simple to use the touchscreen, and I highly recommend this steriliser.
