I only have the pouches. Will this still be helpful for me in filling my pouches? Or do I need to have the filling station for it to be useful?

The mouth of this funnel was too big for the pouches. I ended up using a regular smaller mouth funnel, nothing special something I had from Ikea or even the dollar store.

It will help for pouring straight into the pouches. It fits into them perfectly.

It's for use on the filling station to fill the tubes that squeeze into the pouches

The fancy machine costs less than 25$ and i would suggest using it, otherwise you'll waste a lot of time and energy on filling these one by one...Other than that, if quantities of what you want to fill them with are large then i would suggest putting the filling in a bowl and then using capsule halves to scoup and connect the halves in the bowl. If not, then your suggestion seems reasonable.

Yes. Mine did. Remember the pouch is for water collection. A 2 liter soda bottle works the same.

Like the other response states, this is just an easy way to fill pouches. You could probably use both together - Beaba to cook/purée and then this to fill pouches and store. Hope that helps!

Personally, I do not like trying to laminate the full width. One has to line it up EXACTLY before feeding it into the machine and that is very, very hard to do. I tend to make my own pouches only 17.5" wide so I can have a little leeway. Cutting slits on the side of the pouch tends to help if it starts to go askew; esp. if you can trim that off. Try and keep your pouch between the raised marks on the machine for best heat application. Hope this helps.

Yes, you have to remove it to fill it. You have pull it out, as the opening is on the bottom.

these answers do not match up with the comments left for this product. The most recent comments are stating they only got individual pouches. I need to know... as I need a classroom set...not ONE pouch.

See Vonnie's respond. Use your thumb and index finger to hold it in place after press it together. Now, it should be small enough to shove it back in the small pouch. Give it a few try. You would get it.

Well stated by previous reviewer! Yes, it's very easy to fill up. The trick is to restrain yourself from blowing too much air into it...in this case less is preferred. Also, if you take it with you to the movies, for example, please make a point of remembering it when you leave.

Sorry,They are to be used if you want to divide the sections with different food. The tube goes through the center with the plates separating the sections.You would fill by pouring food down the tube until a section is filled and it will start filling the next section above. Hope this helps. I don't use them because I have multiple feeders. for different food. Roger

Yes, buy the pouches. Otherwise nothing would be over the paper. This unit works wonderfully. A great deal for the price.

They do not, unfortunately. Or I just got some newer Cheeky plates that are about a centimeter too big for the pouches. But other than that, the organizer works really really well. =]

I think the most important part is to leave that last inch or so empty when filling them, I've frozen them both on their side and upright and only had one issue with one I filled a little too much (but it was frozen before popping open so I had no mess, just a warning to be careful)

It helps get the purée into the container that you use to make the pouches.

You throw them away. If you are going to use the whole system I feel its worth the money. The cost for 50 medela pump and freeze bags (which also get thrown away) is 15.99 for 50, the twist pouches are 17.99 for 40 so I dont feel like the cost is terrible. And I have no more dishes and no more transferring of bags and i need alot less storage since I only use 4 nipples and 2 "bottles". So for a few extra dollars, for me,the convenience and ease of using the entire twist system is worth it. If you only are using them to store, then yes they would be a waste.

No, you need to buy any and alo molle pouches. However I fit two 1.5 liter bottles and 2 pack's of jerky in the smallest front pouch without squashing anything.

I completely understand your concern about the cost. However, to reduce this cost I wait for a 20% off coupon to babies R Us and re-use the pouches a few times (they hold up really well because they are a bit more ridge in structure then the one time use store pouches. Some foods rinse out better than others... and because the pouches are see through you can ensure they are clean before re-use. I hope those two hints help reduce the cost for you.
