I am very pleased with this product. It's an absolute life saver for a parent! It is very easy and quick to use, has high capacity and is very quiet. Made my life a lot easier. Used it for quite a long time and it's still like new. I would highly recommend this steriliser, it's worth it's price.

Highly highly recommend!
I cannot recommend this product enough!
As someone who used to design medical sterilises, I did a lot of comparison with other products. This product expels because of:
1-drying feature: the product claims goods are kept sanitised until the lid is open. Microbio will grow on moist surfaces. Therefore, it is key to have dry goods when opening the lid.
2-sterilisation method: this product is a steam. I really do not buy into products that claim sterilisation with UV. Please avoid these for your children. UV process is heavily limited by distance to the UV light source. I do not believe that UV light will penetrate in any meaningful way around crevices.
3-steam penetration: the product is designed in a way that allows the steam to easily flow between layers.
Pros
Steam penetration, drying process… NOT UV
Cons
No cons… price/performance is spot on value!!!

I would recommend
It's easy to use. You can fit any size bottles in the sterliser, breat pump as well. The compartments are great. No leaking water on any surfaces. Slimline fits tidy in my kitchen. 10 minutes to sterlise bottles. It's steam so the lid will have water on it, just like any other steam sterliser. Happy with my purchase and the price

So quick and so convenient!
Quick and quite machine which actually makes your daily chores easier. You can fit a good amount of baby items and more importantly, store them inside for longer sterilisation. It's so convenient that it's not only for bottles! Manual is easy to follow. The process of sterilisation is quick and you have certainty that your baby will have clean items to use throughout the day. The machine is quite tall and takes a bit of space, so you must find a good storage area.
Pros
Quick process, fits good amount of items, quiet, easy to set up
Cons
Quite large, need extra space for storage

Brilliant steam steriliser!
I have really enjoyed using this steriliser, it’s so quiet, it’s quick and so easy to use. The fact it matches my kitchen decor is a bonus! It can fix six bottles of any size in at a time plus lids, rings, tears and loose dummies. I even managed to fit in my pumping equipment with all the bottles! I like the fact you can use it as a double or single layer steriliser and it is easily portable. The only dislike I have about it is the water the drips off the lid when opening the steriliser after a use, it can create a lot of water on surfaces and floor but as long as you go prepared it’s manageable.
I highly recommend this steriliser and it’s even replaced another brands steriliser I already owned. I haven’t stopped raving about it and have even suggested to other pregnant ladies because I love it that much!
Pros
It’s quiet, slimline, quick!
Cons
The water that drips when lifting the lid off.

Excellent product!
I loved testing this steriliser!
The instructions were easy to follow to put it together and it's very easy and simple to use.
A steriliser that can sterilize a bottle in 10 minutes is amazing! Incredibly efficient.
I also like the design of the product, it's modern looking so doesn't look out of place in a kitchen. It's also very easy to clean as the compartments detach easily.
I honestly don't have a negative thing to say! Great product Philips!
Pros
Speed of sterilising bottles!
Cons
None!

Just wow!
Steriliser is absolutely amazing. I'm an older mum, my oldest is now 20 and I've used many new top of the range ones, my god they have come so far!!
I love the way it can be split in case I only have a couple of bottles to do, or be kept as a 3 for when I have loads. Was very fast and I love how it keeps the bottles sterile for ages after it’s finished.
Pros
Can use only part if required and so fast!
Cons
I found no cons at all!

The best baby bottle steriliser
Very easy to use. It takes only a minute to get it ready, you just need to pour 130 ml or 4.5 oz distilled water. It has only one button to press. Heating up starts immediately. Steriliser holds up to 6 baby bottles, I also sterilesed breast pump. There is a section for baby bottle teats and soothers. Delivers sterile bottles in 6 minutes. Do not rush to open the lid when it is finished, steriliser and bottles need to cool down and dry for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Pros
Quick sterilising process, easy to use, stylish, 2 different layers, auto shut-off, chemical free, energy efficient
Cons
Bulky

Amazing product! Love it! Highly recommended!
I tested a lot sterilisers for baby bottles and different staff before Philips and I can honestly say that Philips steriliser is the best one from all which one I tried. Every parent’s should have it at home. Makes your life easier. Is keeping baby bottles clean, safe and ready to use. The cycle is so quick and quiet, if you don’t remove the top they stay sterile for 24 hours after the cycle. I sterilize everything in it eg: bottles, cups, dummies. It is very practical and simplifies everyday life. The product has been easy to set up and easy to wash afterwards. Help me a lot and save a time. Also I can say that design is lovely, match to my kitchen. Love it already and definitely will recommend to all my family & friends.
