The Best Bottles, Sippy & Straw Cups
OUR EDITORS’ PICKS
BOTTLES
Our weeSpring picks are data-driven, based on the feedback of tens of thousands of parents
like you — and then subjected to an added level of testing by our editors.
Comotomo
Breastfeeding moms love the Comotomo bottle because of its rounded shape and natural nipple. As one mom wrote, “Looks like a boob, feels like a boob.” Made from medical grade silicone, the bottle itself is also soft and squeezable, and many weeSpring parents found success with the Comotomo after their babies refused all other bottles. They’re also super easy to clean (no bottle brush necessary!).
The Catch: Some parents note that the measurement markings can be hard to read.
Price: $23.99
Dr. Brown’s
The saying goes “when baby isn’t happy, nobody’s happy” and that definitely stands true when baby has gas. Que Dr. Brown’s bottles. With their vent technology designed to mimic breastfeeding and limit the amount of air baby can consume during a bottle feeding, they help to reduce gassiness, reflux, colic, spit-up and even burping. Parents love that they’re also available in glass and travel well.
The Catch: There are a few extra parts to this bottle, so be prepared to keep track of a extra pieces.
Price: $12.39
Life Factory Glass Bottle
Life Factory glass bottles are a safe, sturdy alternative to plastic. Made from the highest quality, thermal shock resistant borosilicate glass, these beloved bottles can do it all. The colorful silicone sleeves provide a good gripping surface for little hands and protect against tumbles and drops. When your baby is over bottles, simply swap out the nipples for sippy cup tops. All components are BPA- and phthalate-free, and transition safely from freezer to boiling water.
The Catch: Because they’re made of glass, they’re heavy for a baby or toddler to hold.
