The Philips Avent SCF281/05 Microwave Steam Sterilizer kills 99.9% of germs and bacteria in just 2 minutes. It operates at a higher temperature than dishwashers, using the power of the microwave oven to create natural steam. Measuring just 6.5 by 11 inches, it is small enough to fit in most microwave ovens. Its compact, lightweight design makes it ideal for use when traveling. Safety clips keep the lid securely fastened to the base, and side grips stay cooler than the rest of the sterilizer for safe handling in and out of the microwave. At full capacity, the Microwave Steam Sterilizer holds up to four 9 ounce or two 11 ounce Philips Avent bottles. An interior rack can also hold two Philips Avent breast pumps (non-electrical parts only) and up to four breast milk storage cups with lids. You can also use it to sterilize pacifiers, non-metal utensils and other microwave-safe baby items. If the lid is unopened, contents will remain sterile and ready for their next use for up to 24 hours.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like that it can hold a high capacity of bottles, nipples and caps. After running through the microwave in 2 mins, I have nearly all my bottles and parts sterilized. i have too many bottles and parts to fit all at once so I have to fill it and run it the microwave twice.
I was excited about this but I hardly use it now. Its so big and bulky and only fits Avent bottles. I have used other bottles but they tend to fall over if they don't fit the spaces for the avent bottles. Also, after using, the bottles stay wet so I have to dry them anyway. Might as well just handwash them all. Pretty bummed.
I like this sterilizer its easy to use and pretty convenient. However one BIG drawback is that it can only sterilize 3 small or 2 large phillips avent bottles comfortably any more and they don't fit well despite being the same brand. They really need to redesign the insides to accommodate more of their own bottles.
Super easy to clean and use, can steam 4 bottles at a time, and with just 4 minutes total time, it's super easy to get through all my bottles. It's a bit bulky so storage is a bit hard, but I find it definitely worth it because I don't have to worry about boiling or with other steaming methods only fitting 2 bottles at a time or taking up huge space of my already limited counter space
I used this sterilizer back in 1999 when my son was born and I loved it! It was easy and simple use! My model I had, the lid didn’t lock as this model does. (Again this was in 1999) My niece in law registered for her baby shower the Avent bottles but did not register for the sterilizer, so I am buying her the sterilizer for her baby shower. My model sterilizer held 4 bottles and the nipples just fine too.
Love this steamer over the electrical steamers. Easy to clean, no residual, good size!
This sterilizer reduced the time needed for sterilized the feeding bottles and accessories into 2 minutes. When we used boiled water, it took more than half an hour to properly sterilize them. My wife loves it and I'm sure my child too.
I chose this product for the ease and convenice. It's fast and I don't have to wait for water to boil. I gave it 4 stars because I wish it held at least one more bottle.
I trust avent product before this happened but it ruins all my baby bottles. when i placed it in microwave it reacts and melts.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this sterilizer, it’s incredibly inexpensive and should be on every women’s registry list. I love that has these nooks to hold the bottle upright and nipples, it’s incredibly easy to use.
