 Dr. Brown is way better July 28, 2008
I wish I had believed the negative review before I purchased these bottles. Their venting system is not good. I can see lots of bubbles come out when my baby takes his milk. The worst part is when I first screw the nipple on, and test the milk flow, the milk will actually gush straight out, which could potentially choke my baby. I have to unscrew them, and then tight the top part again. Do it at least three times. You can imagine there is no fun doing this with a hungry baby in your arms crying for food. In fact, my baby got mad so many times with these bottles that I have to stop using them. Dr. Brown is way way better, although it is not BPA free. I am not sure about BPA part, but I am sure my baby does not like these "Born free" bottles.
It leaks and does not vent well. Wish Advent makes a BPA free bottle. July 26, 2008

The only reason we got this is for BPA free. It is complicated with many parts to clean. It does not vent when you screw the nipple on too tight. However if you let it loose, it leaks!!! We think we are pretty good at fixed things, but these are hard to use compare to Advant bottles.
It will take Advent nipples, but it will leaks too. However Advent nipples vents much better. If only Avant makes BPA free bottle, we will swiych back in a second. It did not get one start becasue of the BPA:(
 Leaks terribly and includes annoying extra parts July 23, 2008

These bottles, which are obviously selling well because of the Bisphenol-A issues, leak like crazy. All you have to do is tip the bottle sideways and the milk comes gushing out like crazy. Makes a huge and annoying sticky mess. My advice, if you must absolutely have these, is to use the Avent nipples on these bottles. They fit and they don't leak at all, even upside-down. The silicone nipple is not implicated in the Bisphenol problems. The Born Free bottles also have a silicone gasket and a plastic insert, making cleaning and filling the bottles very frustrating and unnecessarily complex. I am hoping someone else comes up with a better BSA-free bottle because these are just not working for me.
Nipple collapses all the time! July 21, 2008
I just got this bottle because they are BPA free, my son like his milk warm. The problem I have is that the nipples collapse all the time, I use th Y nipple. I love the Avent bottle ant now they have BPA free bottles that you can combine with your old nipples. BornFree nipples are very expensive. I have tried everything and I think Avent is just the best. Dr. Browns are difficult to clean and time consuming to assemble. Avent is simple , nipples never collapse, and those who say that they leak it's because they are not closing it properly. Mine have never leaked. I also was very disappointed because I bought a 9oz three pack and when I got them there was only one vent valve included for 3 bottles. I have a coupon to get the other 2 vent systems for "free". Why would they not include it in the package? I have been at the store to redeem the coupon and they are always out.
Potentially dangerous, and the worst customer service ever! July 21, 2008

I happily bought six of these bottles (four from Amazon and two from Whole Foods), since i was looking for BPA-free bottles. The bottles morphed into unrecognizable white and crystallized blobs, one after the other (I stopped using them when this happened with the third one). They all started out with a small white mark near the mouth of the bottle, and did the bizarre morphing thing soon afterwards. I had the bottles in the microwave sterilizer with both a Dr. Brown and an Avent bottle, neither one of which had any problems.
I would love to post a photo of the blob because I am convinced that anything that could turn into THAT cannot be good for my baby.
The worst was that I could not get a response from the company. I wrote emails, I spoke to one of their customer service reps, wrote more emails...and nothing came of any of it. I then reported to the Better Business Bureau in their region (Louisiana), which wrote me back several weeks later to say that THEY had not gotten any response from the company either.
My daughter is the most precious thing in the world to me...would I trust her well-being to a company that produces a flawed product and THEN refuses to respond to legitimate concerns, even from the Better Business Bureau? HECK, NO! I would urge everyone to take care before buying this bottle.
