Philips Avent SCF680/17 Polypropylene Bottle 4oz, Single Pack
From Philips Avent

From the Manufacturer
Sleep and nutrition are vital to your baby’s health and happiness. Clinical studies show that the AVENT bottle significantly reduces fussing, especially at night, and colic in infants 2 weeks of age versus feeding with a conventional bottle. Unsettled and irritable behavior, known as fussing, is by far the most commonly known crying behavior. The two piece anti-colic system consists of the AVENT nipple and adapter ring. As your baby feeds from the bottle, the unique skirt on the AVENT nipple flexes to allow air into the bottle to prevent vacuum build up. Air bubbles move away from the nipple and into the bottle instead of your baby’s tummy. The soft, naturally shaped nipple promotes proper latch-on and allows your baby to control the milk flow making it easier to combine breast and bottle feeding. Nipples are available in various flow rates to allow for your growing baby’s needs. This AVENT bottle is made from PP (Polypropylene) – a BPA-Free material.

Avent finally makes a leak-free BPA-free bottle!
For our first baby born in July '07, we used (and loved) the original Polycarbonate Avent bottles the first few months. Then the BPA paranoia overtook us, and we switched to Born Free bottles, which are made of honey-colored Polyether Sulphone (PES). The Born Free bottles worked well enough, but we hated the 2 extra complicated parts per bottle that we had to clean. For our second kid born in Sept '09, we wanted badly to switch back to Avent, but read poor reviews of the PES BPA-free Avent bottles (apparently they leaked for many users). Fortunately, right around that time, Avent introduced a second line of BPA-free bottles made of the cloudy Polypropylene (PPE), and initial reviews indicated that Avent fixed the leaks (by adding a simple removable collar between the bottle and nipple). After 1 month of using these new PPE Avent bottles, I can attest that they indeed don't leak, and I don't need to take special care or do any procedure to make them leak-free. They just don't leak. Yes, the newly added collar is an extra part to clean, but at least it's a simple part that's easy to clean. So for all you Avent fans out there, take heart! Avent fixed the leaks. Tip: the leaky PES honey-colored bottles come in yellow-colored boxes. The new leak-free PPE cloudy bottles come in blue-colored boxes. Buy the blue-colored boxes.
