I do have a Life Factory water bottle that has held up (knock wood) for several years. I wasn't sure how the silicone sleeve would work out with liquids messier than water, though.</p> <p> @T.H.O.U.: Thanks for the tip about silicone bottles! I didn't know those were an option, but I will definitely look into them.</p> <p> @snowjewelz: Yeah, I know better than to microwave a bottle, but I wouldn't feel comfortable heating a plastic bottle on the stove either - just my own neurosis! Plus, I'd get frustrated having to hand wash them all, I'm sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191840 Thu, 28 May 2015 12:15:27 +0000 birdofafeather 2191840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used the life factory bottles. We got away with 4 small and 2 large since we only used them when I was away for weddings. We only had one break when it was dropped on the top lip. The LF comes with the silicone sleeve. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191787 Thu, 28 May 2015 11:31:35 +0000 snowjewelz 2191787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Avent (not glass) but they have a glass version! </p> <p>Also, we only heat up bottles by putting it in hot water and never microwave in case it creates heat pockets! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191597 Thu, 28 May 2015 10:03:34 +0000 pinkb 2191597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dr Browns </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191500 Thu, 28 May 2015 09:23:06 +0000 Cole 2191500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the avent natural too and really like it. I have the Dr. Brown's ones to pump into, I would have used those but she prefers the avent and it wasn't worth messing with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191460 Thu, 28 May 2015 08:49:21 +0000 youboots 2191460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dr Browns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191370 Thu, 28 May 2015 07:41:47 +0000 MenagerieMama 2191370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Expensive: life factory<br /> Cheap: Evenflo</p> <p>Both work great and haven't had any breaks or complaints! Evenflo attaches to my medela pump better though but I do pump into both of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191293 Thu, 28 May 2015 01:13:26 +0000 PurplePeony 2191293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We mainly used the Avent Natural glass bottles and liked them a lot. We also had one Lifefactory glass bottle that was fine, I bought it because they can convert to a sippy cup but DD hated the sippy caps and by that time she was starting to wean off bottles so it didn't really get a lot of use...but I did really like that it has the silicone cover. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191169 Wed, 27 May 2015 20:58:40 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2191169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Born Free glass bottle and really like them.<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Born-Free-Premium-Glass-Bottle/dp/B00EOML70W/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1432778287&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=born+free+glass+bottles" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Born-Free-Premium-Glass-Bottle/dp/B00EOML70W/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1432778287&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=born+free+glass+bottles</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191107 Wed, 27 May 2015 20:07:39 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2191107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't rule out silicon. The comotomo is a great one.

You can get a silicone sleeve as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191089 Wed, 27 May 2015 19:51:20 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2191089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have only tried one brand, but I really like the Avent natural bottles. I have several in plastic and one that is glass. I like them equally. You can order a silicone sleeve on amazon, and that makes them feel safer to me. I like that they have a wide nipple. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-glass-bottles#post-2191088 Wed, 27 May 2015 19:49:13 +0000 lady baltimore 2191088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am not comfortable with warming up plastic - don't put it in the microwave or dishwasher, don't store hot food in plastic containers - so we will most likely be using glass bottles when I need to pump or supplement. Those of you who use or have tried glass bottles, what are your experiences? Any in particular that you loved or hated? </p>
