I have a suspicion these are cheap because of the bad press they received on Watch Dog a couple of weeks back. Apparently/allegedly, after just a couple of uses the filter and the process actually stops removing the bacteria effectively and after about 1/4 use of the filter's lifetime actually begins to add more bacteria than straight out of the tap water.

Having had a couple of kids my self, I imagine this seems like a useful gadget, but I doubt there's anything that will come close to good old boiled water, in terms of cleanliness.

I recommend you do your own research, but I'm not sure why the BBC would go out of their way to cast a shadow on this product unless they have genuine concerns about it.

Naturally, Tommee Tippee have refuted BBC's findings. See here; http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/1pW6XFkDmSd1S19VVCY1TK/tommee-tippee

Either way, if it were me, for the sake of a couple of minutes, I'd stick with the tried and tested.

We used this for my son and it was the best baby product we had purchased couldn't recommend it enough. So easy to use and milk was ready in less than 1 minute my son was never ill with it. I haven't read the BBC article but my partner did and said the tests where unfair due to it being used with non tap water so wasn't a fair test.

Fab deal & great price. Highly recommend this! Absolute life saver! Heat added OP!:smiley:

So this deal only works if you don't already have Prime?

Amazing product could not of managed eithour (well obviously could but, glad we didn't need to).

Didn't see the Watchdog programme but been using this for 5 months with my little boy and he's been fine. No tummy troubles at all.

absolutely love ours, what a life saver

Thanks. Baby coming soon and wanted this
