Philips Avent Premium Fast Bottle Warmer, with Smart Temperature Control, Water Bath Technology, Automatic Shut-Off, Model SCF358

This review is not to add nor subtract from other reviews, which are confirmed and validated by us. This is a very fast bottle warmer, but does not automatically enter warming sustaining mode. However, since it is extremely fast, with warming bottled water to drinkable warm temperature in under 2 minutes, one can watch the dial indicator showing the warming process (rotating LED light circling around the bottle size dial) and rotate the dial to the sustaining position (furthest dial counterclockwise position) to enter sustain mode.This warmer does not have adjustable temperature settings nor does it provide a temperature display, however, taking a reading after the bottle was warmed indicated that he warmed temperature to be 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit which is an acceptable temperature for most babies. It would be better if there were a way to set the temperature as babies’ preferences can vary.Otherwise, for the price and method of heating, this is a good alternative for a bottle warmer.

This bottle warmer works super fast! We didn’t know if we would need one, but we are SO glad we got one! My only con is that as you go up in “ounces” on the dial, the heat of course gets hotter faster. Even if I’m making a 4oz bottle, I’ll set it at 3 ounces because it will get too hot.

Before getting this, I was heating up bottles by running warm water or by putting the bottles in a bowl of hot water, and it just wasn't working well for me. It would take way too long to warm up, and I was constantly having to monitor the temperature to ensure it was at the right temp. This thing takes away the need to micromanage warming a bottle, is easy to use with the touch of a button, is fairly quick (generally ~5-7 minutes), and is pretty consistent! I give it 4 stars because it occasionally seems to not warm the bottles enough and I haven't been able to figure out why (we have multiple of these so they can live at the grandparents house, and they all have the same issue every once in a while). To remedy this, I will give the bottle a quick shake and leave it in the bath for a little while after the warmer says its done. All in all, very glad to have this thing!

The media could not be loaded. Recently got the Philips AVENT Fast Baby Bottle Warmer SCF358/00 and it's been a lifesaver, especially for night feeds. It warms a 5-ounce bottle in just about 3 minutes, which is super fast and really helpful when you have a hungry baby.What I like most is how it circulates the milk while warming. This means no hot spots, which I was always worried about with microwaving. It’s not just for warming milk; I’ve used it to defrost breast milk and baby food too, and it works great.It’s compatible with all Philips AVENT bottles and most other brands, so I didn’t have to buy special bottles to use it. The sensors adjust the heating based on milk volume and starting temperature, hitting the right temp every time. Plus, it keeps the milk warm for up to 60 minutes and then auto shuts off, so there’s no risk of overheating.The progress light is a neat feature – it shows when the milk is ready without making any noise, which is perfect so it doesn’t wake the baby.It’s also compact and looks nice on our nightstand. Cleaning is easy since it’s just one piece.One minor thing is that you need to be careful to set the right volume for accurate warming, but once you get used to it, it's not a big deal.Overall, it’s efficient, easy to use, and works exactly as it should. Totally worth it for the convenience it brings to feeding time. Definitely a 5-star product!

We've used it 6-7 times a day for a few months now and it still works great! Would recommend!
