there should be a lemon law for bottles

I am so frustrated with our Evenflo bottles! We first had a problem with them leaking all over, so, I contacted the company and after some serious coaxing, they finally sent replacement rings for all of our bottles. Now, we are moving up to medium flow nipples and of the 3 packages of nipples I bought (with 4 nipples in each package), 7 of them work out of a total of 12. We live a good 20 minutes away from the store and we can't afford to buy a whole new bottle line. I contacted the company again, so we'll see what happens there. It is so irritating to discover that your child is screaming his head off because the milk isn't coming out of the bottle fast enough because the nipple wasn't cut correctly, all at 3:00 am. I'm sure you can all tell I had a great night with the boys and their bottles last night!
Thanks for letting me vent!
Anyone else have Evenflo problems? If you do, you really need to contact them because they basically told me I was crazy and that the leaking bottles is a very uncommon problem. I can't wait to see what they say about the nipples.

I know with the Avent bottles if you screw them on TOO TIGHT they leak! It's a min. amount of pressure on the seal that is "just right".... try it with yours. Might work?

 

I had a lot of trouble with ventaire platex bottles (I know different brand). The nipples never released any milk. I also tried evenflo and had the same problems. I returned them all to the store and they took them back, no questions asked. After that, I decded to stick to Dr. Browns.

 

I tried all bottles before I went to Dr. Browns...I have to say I had the same issues with evenflo and vent air. My babies wouldn't even suck on the Avent nipple...

 

I always screw my bottles on the bare minimum to keep them from leaking and they work great for me. DH cranks them down as hard as he can and they either leak or don't vent properly and the milk flows slowly. I use Evenflo's btw.

 

Are they the Comfi Curve? If so, try the Babeies R Us brand Especially for Baby nipples. Cured our leaky bottle problem right up!

 

Are they serious, I have yet to buy one that hasn't leaked. Infact, after buying 2 I vowed to never buy anymore and don't you know someone gave them to us as a present when the girls were born. Grrr.... I am so going to call them for you and complain.
