Good little bags to have with you. I bought these to travel as I needed to sterilise my pumping equipment and it’s soooo good! They are mess free, can take anywhere and it does it’s job. The only downside is the price, on the long run they can become a bit expensive but overall definitely recommend
Great, easy to use bags. Love that you can mark of your uses on the back. Have used now for all three of my children and never had an issue.
After looking at a few brands on amazon I decided on these. They are a little pricier than some others, but medela is generally a good brand and had the best reviews. These bags are so handy. I keep couple of these at my mums house to save taking so much stuff when I visit, and used one on a weekend away. Have had no issues with split bags (but I take a spare just in case) they take up no room, and can be used 20 times. There is a handy little tick box so you know how many times they have been used, and a vent to let the water out. Have used for bottles, breast pump parts and dummies with no issues. Sterile equipment in 3 mins. Just don’t be tempted to overfill the bags, but the instuctions tell you how much you should put in each cycle.
These bags are easy to use and do the job well if used correctly. It would be great if these didn’t have to be disposed off after 20 uses but understand why that is. These are great when you need to sterilise something quickly or are on the go. These need to be used in a microwave
We live in a hard water area and I found that boiling my Medela breast pump accessories in a pan would leave them with a cloudy residue on. I bought these bags primarily to see if this would stop this cloudy residue forming on the bottle etc and it has. It’s so useful to just pop everything in there and microwave it, instead of having to boil in a pan on the hob. It’s also been useful for traveling and staying with family – I can just use the microwave rather than taking up the hob. Recommend!
We did not bought any sterilizer at the beginning, as we did not know if it will worth it. We bought this bags and they simply done the job. 3 minutes and job done, very easy!
I use an electric steriliser when at home and would not advise to have these bags as your only option. It would work out too expensive that way. These are good for when away from home or when wishing to only sterilise a couple of things. Bags can be hot to touch when coming out the microwave. I wouldn’t be without my electric steam steriliser. The problem with the bags is that the items come out wet whereas with my steam steriliser they are ready to use. One very good thing about the bags is they take so little time- 3 minutes in the microwave.
I think they are very useful and practical, at first I handled them wearing kitchen mittens as I was afraidof gettingburned, however later on became more used to them and used them with my bare hands.
I just bought it for the 2nd time now, as it’s a time saver and dose not take up a space.
I liked that it was easy to sterilise when away from home. However it’s a shame it’s not recyclable and it says you can only use each bag 20 times – I used them a lot more than that and it was fine. They do make a horrible crumble sound which can be a bit of a disturbance if the babies with you in the night and you’re getting the pump out. I would just buy a microwave steriliser instead – they’re small and have a much longer life.
These are so handy! Easy to use, no fuss, can take on holiday. We don’t stick to the 20 use guide on the bag as we simply change when they get overly worn, and they’ve been great. The items do get very hot straight out of the microwave but so long as you are cautious there’s no need to worry.
Especially handy for grandparents who look after the baby from time to time and have no need for a more permanent sterilising solution.
