Parents know that it can be extremely difficult to warm up a baby bottle to the PERFECT temperature. YOOMI has the solution! When I came across this bottle I was amazed and knew that I had to give it a try. The bottle warms itself in 60 seconds with the touch of a button!
Preparation is defiantly the key to this amazing baby product. The bottle contains a heating insert that needs to be placed in boiling water for 25 minutes to charge the heating element so that it can later be used. It seems like a long time but all you have to do is place it in the pot of boiling water, set the timer and go about your other activities. The warmer then does have to cool for at least 75 minutes so this warmer isn't very useful if you don't plan ahead.
If you buy several warmers then you can have a stock of prepared warmers ready to go when last minute plans pop up! In 2012 Yoomi plans on releasing a microwaveable cover for the warmer. All you have to do with this is place the warmer in the cover, heat it for 2 minutes and then it is ready for use! I am very excited for the release of this cover and will defiantly be buying one! The warmers can only be used 100 times before you need a new warmer. I found that it would be best to use it only when you know you are going somewhere where you can not normally warm up a bottle easily (Although it is very handy and very easy for everyday busy and on the go moms!)
Once the warmer is charged and cooled, you place it within the bottle. The warmer is activated by pressing the orange button on the side of the warmer. This allows the warmer to fully warm in only 60 seconds. (This reminded me a lot of those reusable hand warmers that you have to boil and press the center button to activate...very handy!)
The formula is then warmed as it flows over the warmer and by the time the formula reaches the teat, it is heated to the exact temperature of breast milk, between 32 and 34 degrees Celsius. The warmer is designed to stay warm for up to an hour! The best part is that you don't have to worry about the milk being too hot or too cold!
The bottle does just as it says it does and its got such a neat design. The bottle is very easy to hold and the teat makes it easy to transition baby between breast and bottle. The bottle is slightly heavy with the warmer in place but we didn't mind it. The teat as has an anti colic valve to help prevent upset stomachs. You can also use the bottle with or without the warmer. The bottles come in a 5 oz or 8 oz and you can buy replacement warmers and teats. The bottles are BPA free!
One lucky reader will win a
