Is it microwave safe? instead of using bottle warmer, can I just directly warm up the milk in the bottle via microwave?

I think it is. Not 100% positive. I think I recall doing it a couple if times.

It is NOT recommended to feed an infant with anything that had been heated in a microwave. Even though some people are ok with it, my recommendation is straight from my wife whos is a doctor.

If you pump and bring cold breast milk places, this is good to heat bottles of breast milk. If your using bottles it's good basically. You can heat jars of food later too. I love it.

Yes it is microwave safe. The lid is better cleaned by hand as part of it twists so it can be closed.

I don't know if using a microwave has any adverse affects on the product so I prefer to melt mine by setting the entire bottle in hot water.

I would not warm the bottle as it is a soft plastic. I squeeze mine out directly into the measuring cup or spoon.

it should work, it gets warm so the glass bottle will get warm as well. This is what I do because the bottle takes about 15 to 30 minutes to warm up. I have notes of about every how often my baby wants milk and I have noticed is every 2.5 hours to 3 hours. Since the bottle takes 30 minutes AND i have written down my baby's last and every meal. I know when he will be hungry so I start warming the bottle 30 minutes in advance and keep it warm until my baby wakes up. NOW, since I use formula, I DO NOT insert the formula until my baby is ready to eat because sometimes it is too hot and I need some space to put some cold water to make it warm. I always carry a bottle with cold water JUST in case i need to warm it up and it is too hot. God bless all babies. Amen

It says they can go in a dishwasher, which gets VERY hot inside, so a bottle warmer's heat shouldn't be a concern as long as it fits. But we found it faster to warm milk in the little platex bottle inserts, we just rest them in a pitcher of hot water then pour into these.

I dont think you are ever supposed to microwave breastmilk. If you dont have a bottle warmer then warm up a pot of water and place the bottle (sealed) in the hot water for about 5-7 mins and it will heat the milk up that way.

Yes. I wouldn't put it in the microwave for long, if you do, but I do put warm drinks in mine.

I've never put anything baby/child plastic in the microwave. I'd imagine it's fine if it's just the bottle with no holder/top

I have never microwaved them. And the white bottle is white - not clear - I have mayo in ours. I would never microwave plastic things like these... You could microwave the butter in a glass measuring cup, and then pour it into the container. Good luck! I love these!!!

I have found that they do not work well in a bottle warmer. The base of the ventaire is just too thick for the bottle warmer to work effectively, not to mention that a lot of condensation builds up in the connections of the base/vent. I just warm the milk in a different bottle (one of the bottles I was using before switching to Ventaire) and pour the warmed milk into the Ventaire. Some would say this was a pain, but it works ok for me.

Yes you have to heat the milk up first. I don't think any of them do this step. I found it was easiest to just zap it in the microwave. It took a few tries to figure out how long to zap it but now I have a routine and it's not hard.

I actually don't warm the formula before serving it. You could easily by a bottle warmer to use to heat the bottle (heat in a glass cylinder or glass bottle the transfer to your normal bottle) or heat as you described.

I heat my milk in the microwave (in a pyrex measuring cup) before frothing and it works just fine. I don't want to add cold frothed milk to my hot coffee. Just keep in mind that the milk volume will almost double, so the container you froth in needs room to allow for this. This is handy to take on trips too. Even camping

No, it is not microwave safe. For those who are unaware, you should never microwave food or drinks in plastic. When you microwave food or drinks in plastic, the plastic (along with all the toxins) leaches into the food/drink. For your child's safety, please do not do this with any sippy cups/bottles. I am shocked to see that people are unaware of this risk. This is a serious health hazard.

I'm sorry, I don't remember. The lid has a plug portion that I'd not put in a microwave. Because of the shape of the bottle and the lack of insulation, I wouldn't put any of it in the microwave, even if the glass temperament allowed. I would believe that it is safe to put in the dishwasher. That issue doesn't come up here; our dishwasher is named ME.
