NOT BPA FREE...
We just received 3 packs of these and from what I can tell they are polycarbonate which means these are not BPA Free. After all the recent uproar about BPA. I can't believe that Amazon does not list what they are made out of and if they are BPA free or not. BabiesRus does not even sell bottles containing BPA anymore, and I am surprised Amazon has not followed suit. Apparently I will be returning these. I am an Amazon Prime Member and do the majority of my internet business with Amazon but this definitely has me thinking. I checked one star for the review and I don't think they even deserve that. Actually its Amazon that that deserves less than one star at this point.

Definitely Worth IT!!!!
OK, I was skeptical too - especially (as others have written) that my pediatrician said that the bottles don't make a difference - but YOU know your baby best and I have to say, after the birth of our second baby, I began supplementing with formula using Avant bottles (which I used for our first - who was colicy) and I noticed our baby writhing in pain before getting his burps out (or waking in the middle of his restful periods screaming with gas pain). Naturally, I thought that I was just going to have to deal with the fact that we had another baby with colic - THEN I remembered a friend recommended Dr. Browns. I waited 24 hours to see if they REALLY worked before writing this review and SURE ENOUGH - he is MUCH happier, sleeping more soundly and not once has he pulled his little legs up in pain because of gas. With the Avent bottles, I even had a hard time getting him to burp, with Dr. Brown's, he just seems to have an easier time burping.
RE: Leaks - haven't had the problem at all. RE: Washing - GET OVER IT! If it's better for your baby just take the extra 10 seconds! (Frankly, I was a little concerned about the extra parts and washing too, but it's really NOT a big deal). Finally, just one bit of advice that another mommy friend gave me - DON'T HEAT UP THE BOTTLES - and by that, I mean don't heat whatever you're putting in the bottle...it will make your life so much easier to get your baby used to eating something that is room temp (I use room temp bottled water to make formula and feed it straight away) - that way, it reduces a step (makes up for the extra washing) and if you're in a pinch out somewhere you don't have to stress about how to heat your bottles. My 4 week old, in fact, will take a bottle straight out of the fridge (and I am still nursing) so he goes back and forth between warm breast and cold/room temp bottle with no problem. I understand that all babies are different and some babies are just more particular, but if he/she will take it, opt not to heat up (especially given some warnings of late of wierd chemicals leaking from plastics into food stuff upon heating).
I would also recommend not buying the 4oz - go for the 8oz (they outgrow 4oz too quickly) and for those who say these bottles are too expensive, they really aren't that much more...and espeically given the SANITY that you will regain, they are worth every cent!! I'm sorry for those that didn't have luck with this product, but it's worth a shot if you are feeling desperate (or if you're a new parent wondering what product to start with). I only wish someone had encouraged me to try this with our first - it might have saved a lot of tears (on my part and my baby's)!!!

BEST EVER!!!
These bottles are awesome. I have reccomended them to so many of my friends. My son had no gas problems and no ear infections either. I will use these again for my next child.

Good bottles for preventing gas & colic
Good bottles for overly eager babies who would otherwise be gulping down a lot of air. A bit of a hassle with cleaning (because of the multiple parts) but otherwise no downside.

Highly Recommended!
We love the Dr. Brown's bottles. I had NO idea what type of bottle to buy, but ended up getting these after reading all of the great reviews. I was not disappointed. After eating, my four month old almost NEVER has ANY gas or burps. We have never had any problems with leaking bottles (unlike the sample Avent and Nuk bottles I received in the mail), and since we have a dishwasher, I just throw all the little parts in a Munchkin basket and don't think about it again!
Highly recommended product-- We like the wide-neck bottles best, but my daughter switches back and forth between narrow and wide with no problems!

Zero bubbles!
This is truely an excellent product. I had to write to agree with what everyone else is saying.
Our baby simply do not swallow any bubbles no matter how we hold the bottle. We would not feed from bottles unless it's got the Dr. Brown insert in it.
The way it works is that there's this this vent tube inside the bottle which lets air escape from the nipple. What you get is that the entire nipple area is filled with milk/formula, no matter how fast your baby drinks. Baby can not suck air from inside the nipple. Period.
Baby can still suck in air from outside the nipple, but that can be fixed if you get a wide mouth nipple that forces the baby to close her lips around it. End result is baby won't have any gas problems.
The vent tube can be used in other bottles so you can have more options.
The vent tube is something extra that needs to be washed, but that's just a minor inconvenience.
The nipples that comes with these bottles are not the ones we want to use, but who cares, we just toss them and put in a different nipple of our chosing.
I got the 4 oz bottle now, I'm definitely planning to get the 8 oz versions when the baby's a bit bigger.

This product has made all the difference in the world
I was hesitant to try these bottles only because I didn't really believe it would make a difference. My baby had SUCH bad problems with gas, I thought it was just her lot in life. Then a friend urged me to try these. Man, am I sorry I didn't try them sooner. My baby can now actually sleep for hours without getting woken up by the awful gas pains she was getting. I owe it all to these bottles. Who knew a bottle made such a difference?

Great.
These came highly recommended. From his first experience w/ these bottles, our son has eaten well then burped loudly. I need to credit Dr. Brown's bottles.

Good but not for all babies
My son had lots of gas and was extreamly fussy when he was new. I bought these to help, and they did but the didn't cut it. He was better but still lots of gas and still fussy. I don't mind the cost of bottles for results. I ended us switching to Playtex VentAire. They worked better for my child(no gas no more fussy baby). He had problems with the nipple on the Dr. Browns. It was too soft. The bottles didn't help us as much as others have been helped.

After trying them all, these worked the best....
Before I delivered my son, I knew that I would be bottle feeding due to previous issues. I decided to purchase the Playtex angled bottles. Once my son was born, I realized that was a mistake. He was getting way too much air in the nipple, therefore, he was having alot of painful gas. When he was just 5 days old, I decided we needed something else. I went out and purchased the Ventair by Playtex, hoping that would help. The Ventair did not make any difference! So as a last resort, I went BACK to the store and purchased several different types. One of them was the Dr. Brown's. After just one feeding I knew that I didn't even need to try the others! My son did not get even one air bubble in the nipple! While I do agree with the other reviews, there are a few extra pieces to wash, I am more than willing to wash them if my son can be more comfortable after his meal. And quite honestly, it only takes a few extra moments. They are worth the money and time because "THEY WORK"!
