Philips Avent 3-in-1 Electric Steam Steriliser - SCF284/01 1 Count (Pack of 1)

Product Information

Philips’ ubiquitous Avent brand includes a microwave steam steriliser that is robust, roomy, safe and straightforward to use – though, like our tester, you’ll need to measure your microwave first. Refusal of these advertising cookies does not affect the use of our Site and will not result in the suspension of advertising on our Site. Philips AVENT 3-in-1 Electric Steam Steriliser has been designed to fit both wide neck and narrow neck bottles as well as different breast pumps and accessories.

Forgetting to properly clean and sterilise your baby’s feeding equipment can lead to tummy upset, diarrhoea and an unhappy or ill baby. With its adjustable size, the Philips Avent 3-in-1 electric steam steriliser takes up the least amount of kitchen space, yet perfectly fits the items you want to sterilise, whether it's a few small items or a full load. Other sterilisers can be easier as they just have 1 compartment to put things in with 2 layers to put them on. The instructions are quite specific about how to arrange bottles and breast pump parts on the steriliser’s inner tray, but our tester found it easy enough to do (and also to ignore when she wanted to sterilise non-standard parts).Parents can use it in its small version for smaller items like soothers, middle size for breast pumps and larger size for 6 bottles. Our tester did say that it would be helpful to have the water level marked on the unit itself in case the instructions were lost. I also like the fact that I can sterilise other products including dummies, teethers, accessories etc too. Its quick sterilising programme only lasts for 6 minutes and it holds 6 Avent bottles and accessories too. This steriliser provides a quick and efficient way to sterilise your bottles, allowing you to spend more time with your child.

All Philips’ parenting products come with an automatic two-year warranty, which gives some added reassurance. The Philips Avent microwave steam steriliser is a great choice for fast, effective sterilising at home or away. When it comes to taking the steriliser out of the microwave and making sure no fingers get burnt, Mumsnet users recommend waiting a few minutes before taking off the lid. Even the longest option is quite a bit shorter than many of the sterilisers we tested, such as the Milton Cold Water or the Dr Brown’s Deluxe Bottle Steriliser.Paige Barker says: I would change the sizes of the 2 sections and allow the dishwasher bit to fit into the smallest section that goes on top.

Cycle lengths depend on the wattage of your microwave: two minutes for 1200W to 1850W, four minutes for 850W to 1100W or six minutes for 500W to 800W. The steriliser's lightweight and compact design makes it easy to take along with you wherever you go — holidays, visits to relatives, etc. This ensures you can remove the steriliser safely from the microwave, keeping baby bottles and other products sterile and preventing the possibility of burning. If I need to get into the big section soon after sterilising has finished I burn my hands removing the top section, and so sometimes have to wait until it’s cooled down a bit to do this.
