MILTON Combi Microwave Or Cold Water Steriliser in White – Fits Five Wide Neck Bottles of Any Brand

Product Information

Unique Safety Vent Technology – an innovative pop-up safety vent allows some pressure to form inside the combi unit. When enough steam is generated, the vent pops up to gently release the pressure. This means more heat is created inside the Combi which, in turn, means better sterilisation and maximum protection for your baby. No need to rinse the baby bottles or other items that are sterilised, you can use them straight away. As part of the Bounty Parents rewards program, all members receive 20 points for each review they submit. Because infant formula can sometimes contain bacteria, it is important to make up each feed as your baby needs it, using boiled water (temperature 70°C or above). The hot water will ensure that any harmful bacteria get killed. Always remember to let the feed cool before giving it to baby. Once the required 15 minutes are up, each item can be shaken and used without further rinsing – though our tester found her baby equipment smelled of chlorine afterwards and felt hesitant about giving it to her baby (it’s perfectly safe to do so, but the smell is rather off-putting).

Disinfection; Describes the elimination or destruction of micro-organisms, but not usually bacterial spores. Generally applied to the process of making inanimate objects free from infection and safe to handle. Whether you choose to breast or bottle feed your baby, you will need to start a hygiene routine from the day they are born - and that means sterilising everything that goes into their mouth. Sterilisation; This is an absolute term meaning complete destruction or removal of all viable micro-organisms.Unique safety vent technology to increase the temperature inside the Combi for better sterilisation As the Milton Cold Water Steriliser isn’t electric, it can be kept anywhere from the sink to the garden. It can also be thrown into a kitchen unit, the under-stairs cupboard or bathroom for storage, which our tester found appealing. Milton solution remains effective for 24 hours, items can remain in the solution and are ready to use at a moment's notice. Ensure that any trace of milk or food is removed. Take special care to clean teats, bottle rings where milk residue can easily be trapped. The Milton Method (cold water method)

Milton Advice to protect baby | Milton

Milton's five-litre container fits six baby bottles of any brand, plus breast pump parts and toys in any configuration. Items can be taken out or put in as required so there’s no need to wait to run a cycle or leave things out because they don’t fit. The niggling annoyance of cold water solutions is the smell: even with the screw-on top, our tester found her kitchen damp with splashes and smelling strongly of disinfectant. And as a microwave steriliser, the Combi runs into some problems: it’s hard to keep bottles upright inside it, and it’s too large to fit into many smaller microwaves. The container is made from a sturdy plastic that won’t degrade and should stand up to any amount of rough handling.

Have multiple babies, use a lot of bottles per day or want to sterilise a variety of items including breast pumps, toys and dummies It’s basic and utilitarian, coming in white and grey, and is unlikely to be out on the counter when not in use. Is it good value for money? The weighted grid supplied keeps all the items under the water so they remain sterile for as long as they’re in the container (up to 24 hours). It’s important to make sure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the bottles or teats before leaving to sterilise. The number one rule to protect your baby and your family from germs is to wash your hands regularly and thoroughly. This is the best way to avoid germs being transmitted from you to your baby, as a high majority of germs are transmitted via hands. Encourage all other members of the family and visitors to wash their hands regularly, especially before touching your baby. This should be a priority for everyone. You won’t need to wash the container before first use as the fluid you’ll fill it with is, itself, sterile. Is the Milton Cold Water Steriliser safe?
