Its bottle warmer and bottles are some of the industry's bestsellers, naturally, the Dr Brown's Deluxe Bottle Sterilizer does not disappoint.
The newly redesigned model does not have an open bottom area anymore so water cannot flow in for deposits to build up. It can also now sterilize 6 bottles all at once, together with other small accessories simultaneously.
This is thanks to the built-in accessory tray which is one of the biggest and deepest we have ever seen.
It can therefore hold accessories like bottle parts, nipples, and even pacifiers all at once, in one place.
Parents love how it comes with a pair of tongs which make fishing the sterilized contents out easier.
Also, the measuring cup that is included helps them gauge the exact amount of water required for each sterilization cycle because it is not advisable that you exceed the recommended amount of water.
Like many sterilizers, it uses steam to sterilize but what's different with this one here is that it has a removable tray that is designed to allow you position the bottles in a way that steam can be directed into each bottle.
Sounds familiar? Yep, this one here employs the same methodology, and that is because by directing steam straight into the bottles, you get to sterilize each and every inch of the bottle inside and out, so as to achieve a 100% clean and germ-free session.
Another improvement we see (and like) with the new design is that the Dr Brown's Sterilizer has now electronic controls and cycle indicators which make it so much more easier to use and operate. Also, it now has an automatic shut-off function once the sterilization cycle is complete.
Like the Philips AVENT and The First Years, the Dr Brown’s Deluxe Bottle Sterilizer does not dry the contents simultaneously so you would have to air dry your contents after removing them out.
We recommend using one these drying racks to save you the trouble, or alternatively, choose a sterilizer that comes with a dryer option like this or this.
Pros
Cons
One thing to note though, is that hard water may increase build up or other residue on the heating plate so if you have hard water, we recommend that you use distilled water to prolong the life of your sterilizer.
