Philips Avent 3-in-1 electric steam steriliser SCF285/01 Kills 99.9% of harmful germs Sterilises in 6 minutes Fits 6 Philips Avent bottles Adjustable 3-in-1 design is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 66.
Rated 2 out of 5 by from 3 in 1 steriliser After first usage its simple to use and taken no time at all to sterilise bottles etc unfortunately after first time having followed instructions the metal plate turning brown and leaving a burning smell, I do not live in a hard water area so do not understand the cause of this. The unit has a lot of leakage onto the worktop also and that is with using th water required. Overall it is a good steriliser and very quick

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Stopped working I have had the steriliser for 7 month, I was happy with it as it is very practical when you have to sterilise bottles and plastic pots however it suddenly stopped working this week leaving me stressed as I just started working again... The on button just does not click anymore therefore the machine does not switch on.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This product is easy simple and great! I find this product perfect to use in an evening to sterilise all of my baby's things. it says it takes 6 mins but it actually tzkes about 10 and you can sterilise 7 bottles at a time. it is spacious and has space for dummies etc as well as other things such as beaker lids. Only problem is i have had a build up of limescale which has made it smell a bit and it is quite hard to get rid of the smell.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy to use This is a versatile steriliser which is big enough to fit 6 bottles, teats etc., but is slim enough to fit in a small space. The only downside is that you have to take it apart - and if the socket isn't close to the sink, unplug it - to empty out excess water. This isn't a big problem but is a bit of a pain when you've got a hungry baby who wants you to get a move on!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Avoid this product This product is rubbish. The plate burns and I have had to replace 3 times. It's ruined a number of bottles with a burnt smell. It's a waste of money. I would never use avent again. I have had to replace all my bottles and buy a tommee tipee bottle steriliser. I am disappointed as being a first time mum and always being told avent was the best. AVOID THIS PRODUCT

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Leaks Ended up here searching the Internet to see if we were alone with water leaking from the steriliser, clearly it seems we are not. The product is excellent, and very easy to use, but we've got water everywhere after every use. Like others have tried a number of things but to no avail. Shame because as I say the actual use of the product is excellent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple to use and looks good The Philips AVENT 3-in-1 Electric Steam Steriliser has been a brilliant purchase for us. We use it constantly. It's easy to use, whether you use just the large lower basket, the smaller upper basket or both. It's shape means it doesn't take up much space in the kitchen and within 10 minutes it sterilises 6 bottles and all the dummies I can find.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from bit of both worlds this steralizer looks great, doesnt take up much room and is easy to set up BUT... no matter how many times i filled it to the correct level of water it needed it burnt and gave a funny burning smell and left marks around the bottles which i would say is not right at all if it is suppose to be steralzing not making a mess of the bottles!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from its really good steriliser easy to use the only thing is it takes longer than it says on the manual like it says only 8 minutes but it takes about 15 minutes or bit more to sterilise and you can't fit 4 tommy tippee bottles and a breast pump at the same time other then I really like the design and its fine product. just bought this cos there was no other available at the time.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Does the job This product is easy to use and sterlises quickly. Unfortunately the items do not remain sterilised once opened so it is pointless sterlising more than one bottle at a time. Limescale builds up very quickly on this product and brown scum forms within two sterilisations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile and easy to use I absolutely love this steriliser, its easy to use and can be separated if the whole thing not needed. I chose it for this reason and would recommend to anyone, being a first time Mum myself I wanted ease and convenience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth every penny This steriliser is versatile. It easily fits 6 feeding bottles. At times when I put in smaller bottles, breast pump would also fit in. It's also very, very easy to use! Gives me more time to be with my baby!
