HORRIBLE ill-fitting top, leaks and wastes milk! DO NOT BUY
The tops do not fit the bottoms properly, so when you mix formula it leaks out everywhere and the milk gets caught between the top and bottom, making it suction closed and impossible to open. The force required to eventually open this results in more spillage/milk loss. Also, there is no grip or leverage feature, so cups and tops are slippery - again, hard to open. I SO regret buying these things and curse them everytime I have to use them (and then clean my kitchen floor, counter top, etc.).

Looking for these cups for a second time.
I used these cups when my younger child was breastfeeding, now that my kids are both at school I send their snacks stored in them.
I'm pregnant again, so I'm looking for new ones.

Great product
After all the news on BPA came out, my husband and I went searching for bottles and breastmilk storage options that were BPA free. The Avent Vias are great. They don't stack as well in the freezer as I would like but knowing my baby isn't getting BPA makes it worth it. The feature I like the best is being able to connect the adapter to the container, then an O-ring and nipple and be able to feed directly without having to transfer milk to a different container. This does make them difficult to transport, but that's what we use the Gerber bottles for and keep the Vias for home use. These are great!

Convenient
I bring these to work with me to store my milk after pumping. They are more durable than the bags, which is nice because I have to share the fridge at work, and you can reuse them which saves you money. This product also includes an attachment that allows you to pump directly into the storage containers and/or attach a nipple and feed from.

Great product
I was looking for an inexpensive non-disposable storage containers because the bags were emptying my wallet very quickly. I use 3 of the storage containers daily and I absolutely love this product. They hold 6 oz instead of the 4 I continually finding, they do not contain BPA, and they do not leak if accidentally tipped over. I don't have use for the top that holds a nipple as I do not use avent bottles, so I can't comment on those. I do not know if this product is freezer friendly but I already have enough milk frozen that I don't need to do this.
When I recieved the product the instructions say not to re-use more than 3 times. I may not have purchased had I known this but I have used them for 2 months now and haven't had any problems. I will recycle them when I am no longer pumping. I would use again for any future children.

Avent's only BPA Free bottle!!
I love this product because they are the only Avent "bottle" that are BPA free!! I love the Avent nipples since they are more natural shaped and my son switches from breast to these easily. I refuse to use any of Avents regular bottles since they are very high in BPA. So these are great! I can pump directly into them and then attach the nipple and not have to worry about poisoning my son. I wish they had more BPA free bottles that are not disposable but I am just happy they at least have these.

horrible containers
these are horrible, they don't pour well, and can only be used a couple times. If you want more durable better quality and probably cheaper storage I would go with milk mates. Plus milk mates bottles can attach to certain breast pumps, mine is lansinoh, and its a perfect fit!

These are horrible
The lids are so hard to screw on straight. You think they are on tight, then when you hold them up at eye level you will often find that they are on crooked. Also when you twist the lid open or closed, it is hard to get a good grip because the gripping area is very thin.
They are expensive too, a total waste of money. Who wants a disposable system where you have to keep (and wash) the lids?

Great Storage
These cups are more than just for breast milk (although they are good for that too). Now that my baby has moved onto solids these cups are perfect for storage of snacks, home made fruits and vegetables and all sorts of goodies. They stack easily and save space in the fridge and freezer. They fit perfectly into lunch boxes too for the older kids.

PLEASE don't waste your money on these
1. they leak
2. too expensive
3. they don't supply enough lids, so you have to buy more containers
4. doesn't work well for feeding
