These glass bottles are perfect for storing breastmilk in the freezer, as glass is the best material to store milk in to prevent losing vital nutrients in breastmilk. As much as 60% of important antibodies can be lost when milk is frozen in plastic bags/bottles!

no plastic-leaching worries from these bottles due to potential dangers of #7 plastic bottles that most plastic baby bottles are made of. i was also surprised at how affordable they were. the item was shipped quickly. my only slight complaint is that i wish these came with silicone nipples instead.
also, my opinion is that there's no need to buy a 4oz bottle since babies will quickly grow out of that stage. if you're short on money, just get the 8oz ones - you'll be holding the bottle when feeding a baby who can only consume smaller amount of milk, so no need to worry about the larger size for the baby.
 Okay, but it doesn't vent September 24, 2007

These are your old-fashioned, sturdy glass bottles. So if you're used to a Dr. Browns', which vents so well, you'll be disappointed. My son sucks and sucks and when I take the bottle out of his mouth, air gets pulled in through the nipple, creating all kinds of bubbles. I tried to use the Dr. Brown's interior venting system, but it's just a hair too long to fit in the bottle. If they were just a bit shorter, they'd fit. I'm starting to think the extra money for the Born Free bottles is worth it.
Great for storing breastmilk! September 15, 2001

While I would NEVER feed my baby with these bottles, I have found them to be fantastic for storing breastmilk in the freezer. Unlike the plastic bags which can split or spill (and impart a nasty plastic smell), they are durable and don't freeze into weird shapes. Most importantly, glass has been found to be the best material for retaining the maximum immune cells in the milk - the slick glass walls don't allow the important immune components to stick to the bottle. These do take up more freezer space, but I find it well worth the space to know that my baby is getting the best I can give him when he's not nursing with me. Too bad these are so hard to find!

I chose to go with classic glass bottles because of safety reasons, and for the most part, am happy with my choice. The bottles are great and easy to clean, but the nipples are hard and unyielding. I actually use my Dr. Brown's nipples instead. I also use the internal vent from my Dr. Brown's bottles without the tube. It works great!
