Parents Choice is the only formula my kids have been able to stomach. When you shake the bottle it doesn't foam up like Enfamil or Similac so they have less gas and are much more comfortable. Plus you can't beat the fact that it is also half the price.

I have been using Parent's Choice Milk Based formula for a few months.  I have noticed recently though that I have been finding brown to dark brown chunks in the formula and the formula is inconsistent from can to can.  Sometimes the formula is lighter is color and more sticky and sometimes it is... review »

This formula is great. This is what I usally buy if I don't want to go to Costco or don't have money to buy Enfamil. It works great on my daughter. It is a couple of dollars more than Costco's Kirland Brand Formula that works just as well.

I initially started using Good Start with my baby because I was sold on the "Comfort Proteins" (partially broken down whey proteins that are more gentle for fussy babies). After reading reviews on here about Parent's Choice, I bought a can to try. I started to transition my baby by making a daily pitcher of formula with 1 part PC to 3 parts Good Start. I even noticed that it smelled (and likely tasted) better than Good Start. My baby seemed to tolerate it well and I was happy! I was committed to making the switch until I read an article about the suggested amount of DHA in baby formulas. As most...

Parents Choice formula available at Walmart and Sams Club is less than half the cost of the name brand formulas.

Its been a life saver financially as we now raise & completly support our 2 grandsons. Although we have 5 kids,at least we had WIC than which we DQF now,so having to pay for formula has saved us alot by buying this brand.

Parents choice mixes well, babies drink it just fine so it must taste okay too.

At times, Walmart and Sams ran a special on Parents Choice by offering it in 33 oz cans for the same price as the 25 oz cans! We pay $11.97 a can.

Parents choice has the exact same DHA/ara...

We have been using Parents Choice formula for a few years now (with both of our two little girls) and we love it.  It has never caused us any problems (allergies, diaper rashes, bad reactions on the flavor, ect.) at all, and the girls actually didnt notice a difference when we switched them to it from Good Start DHA & ARA.  We made the switch quickly (overnight) because of the price difference.  Good Start DHA costs between $14 and $15 here for a 12 oz can while the Parents Choice is between $11 and $12 for a 25 oz can.  So you pretty much get double the amount of formula for $3 to $4 less...

Parent's Choice Milk Based Formula with DHA/ARA is the best and cheapest formula I have found on the market. It has the same nutrients, ingredients, and nutritional information as Enfamil and Similac at half the cost! I came to a low in money and my daughter needed formula, Parent's Choice saved me so much money that I could put towards bills and other necessities. My daughter didnt even notice the difference and it had negative effects on her. I would highly recommend Parent's Choice formula to anyone trying to save some money without losing benefits of formula! Parent's Choice is the right...

After another unsuccessful attempt at breastfeeding we had to switch our infant son to formula. We tried 3 other varieties because of how made he would throw up after each bottle feeding. Finally a family suggested trying the Parents Choice brand so I figured it couldn't hurt anything. Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! Finally something that helped my child, no more throw up, no more upset belly and best of all, no more foamy bottles. This formula doesn't have a strong odor like other's do and It doesn't foam up like other's that we have tried. Parent's Choice brand is half the price as other... review »

We don't get any form of assistance therefore formula is a huge cost as most parents know when having a child. This formula is AWESOME and even better due to being half the price as name brand formula! I love it, so does my son! We've tried the samples from the Dr. office of the brand named and he spit up more and seemed to have more gas, on PChoice he doesn't have any problems outside of the fact that he's always wanting more! He is growing according to good health scale and is right with the program on his knowledge and development! I love the price and quality although I wish every once in a... review »

Parent's Choice 2 Infant Formula with Iron and lipids DHA and Ara, is a wonderful product to use for those pickey eaters. I know from experience this is a very good product to be using because my little girl does not like many foods and has a hard time learning to chew and swallow some types of foods. so, I chose this formula, so I would not have much concern weather or not, she is getting enough nutrion in her diet. so far at 18 months, she has keep a great growing pattern, in which I'm very proud of. also, I would like to add it's very economical on the budget. Thanks to parent's choice...

Parent's Choice formula is just as good as the three huge name brands out there, but it's half the price. My baby was a spitter so I tried some of the other specialty stuff out there, and none of it worked. I went to using this stuff instead. It certainly didn't make her spit up any more, and she gained weight like any normal baby. She's been happy and healthy now for a whole year on this stuff!

The Parent Choice Milk Based Baby Formula is much like the name brand formulas.  The consistency of the powder is just a little different but my children have had no problem taking it.  I would highly recommend this to a friend as it is half the price of name-brand formulas.

We have four children under 10 and a fifth on the way.  I primarily breastfed, but always supplemented with formula, and then weaned into formula when they were done nursing. We've used lots of different formulas, and when we found Parent's Choice I was so happy!  I really wanted to give the babies something with DHA/ARA, but the ones like Enfamil, Similac and Good Start were just so expensive!  I decided to give this a try because we were on a tight budget and couldn't really afford the other kinds, but didn't want to sacrifice our babies nutrition.  Since Parent's Choice with DHA/ARA was...

I had identical twin girls on February 29, 2008.  They were started on Enfamil Lipil in the hospital, and due to the high cost of having to buy twice as much formula with twins, I reluctantly asked my pediatrician about using Wal-mart's store brand Parent's choice instead of Enfamil.

After giving me all the free Enfamil that he could from his office, he told me that if we used the Parent's choice corresponding brand milk-based infant formula with iron, it would virtually be the same and would be acceptable to use.  He informed me that if the twins had any adverse side effects, to call him immediately. ...

I absolutely love this product. As  aconcious, cost concious mother I like to keep my eyes open for a good bargain but with all the quality I want. This option is very comparable to Similac advance. The product is nesrly half the cost, ignrdients are very similar, and large cans were available. Parents Choice formula with DHA and ARA is definitely a great option for anybody on a budget. There ara also other varieties available to choose from such as colic formula, millk free, and so many more. One of my favorite features of this product aside from cost in how baby likes it and how well it dissolves...
