 Quick, easy way to sterilize! June 11, 2007

I am an exclusive pumper, so every day I pump 6x (and clean the parts every time) and also have to sterilize bottles. It was getting to be a hassle setting up a pot of boiling water every time I wanted to clean pump parts and bottle nipples!! I saw these in the stores and was a little skeptical (also thought they seemed a little pricey) but decided to give them a shot. And I was so happy I did! A little water, two minutes in the microwave, and I have sparkling clean pump parts and bottles. A set of five bags gives you 100 times in the microwave. My son is three months old and I am still on the first set of bags that I bought! Looking back, I feel like I definitely got my money's worth. I would recommend this product for sure.
I LOVE THESE BAGS!!!!!!! December 30, 2006

I nursed my now 4-year-old daughter for almost a year and pumped daily. I hated always having to boil the pump for 20 minutes, which was also tough on the pump's plastic parts, which would yellow until I replaced them. Now I am nursing my 3-month-old son. I was thrilled to find these micro-steam bags! I use them not only to sterilize the pump after each use, but also for bottles. (Though I pump daily, I only occasionally use bottles, so always boiled them, too - this is sooooooo much easier!) I am so glad they came out with this product - it just makes things a lot easier! And it's so inexpensive, too!
SO convenient! February 17, 2007

These bags are GREAT! My son had an extended NICU stay so I pump exclusively and have to be very careful with hygiene. With these I can quickly and easily sterilize my pump attachments, his bottles, his pacifiers or even a couple of his toys. All I do is add some water, microwave, drain and done. No boiling water, no timing, no accidentally melting things on the bottom of the pot, no hassle with complicated electronic sterilzers, and almost no storage space! Each bag is good for around 20 uses then you toss it out and get a new one, so a package of them lasts quite a while. Very handy when traveling too, since many hotels and gas stations have microwaves so you can sterilize what you need to on the go without trying to haul a bunch of junk around with you.
The MOST useful item in my Mommy Bag! March 9, 2008

Hands down, a terrific time-saving useful item that WORKS! The hospital threw one in w/ the pump we purchased. It took a few days after being home to discover it in our goodie bag, and I wish we had on Day 1. Improved my whole day/night!! Beforehand, I'd stand at the sink, run the water till it got hot (thereby WASTING water), scrub everything by hand with a soapy towel, dry everything off - what a huge hassle that took 20 mins or more!! Why struggle with something like this when there are so many other things to figure out, especially as a new mom?
With these bags, just quickly rinse items to get the milk off, put your bottles, nipples, pump access. or whatever into the bag, dump in 2oz of water and nuke for 1-1/2 min or so (there is a chart on the bag to tell you how long for what wattage microwave - longest is 3 minutes). You CAN'T mess it up! Each bag is good for 20 uses, and there's even a checkbox area to mark each time you've used the bag to help you keep track. Though, I'm guilty of sometimes using one more than 20 times, so far no problems.
1. Takes A LOT less water to clean items, helps conserve.
2. Works quickly & better than washing by hand.
3. Useful for more than pump accessories - nipples, bottles, caps, etc.
4. Items tend to dry faster, air-dry within a minute or so.
5. Leaves you more time to do other things - (enjoy your baby)
These are CHEAP!! Give them a try - if you don't like them, no biggie - but you WILL!
[I would've loved to have gotten these as a shower or new baby gift!]

These bags are great to quickly clean breast pump parts... but after having problems with one of my pump membranes (which has been from the beginning so I think it's a manufacturing issue) and breast shields that warped (which I swear happened the ONE time I put them in the dishwasher) I called Medela customer service and they told me not to use the bags every time to clean pump parts because that would add to the wear and tear of them, and to just wash parts in warm soapy water. So now I'm left wondering when to use these great bags... maybe once a week? Not sure...
I've also put bottle nipples in but find you really have to use a nipple brush on them first or else you just get caked on milk... and if I'm going to go to that trouble, I might as well just wash everything by hand.
