Playtex Ventaire Baby Bottles Review Summary

With a unique design, Playtex VentAir baby bottles have a “removable bottom that sucks the air out as the baby drinks.” Overwhelmingly, experienced parents agree the Playtex VentAir is phenomenal at reducing gassiness. VentAir Bottles have an angled neck which “makes it easier to hold baby upright while feeding” as well as easy to grip for both parent and baby. The NaturalShapes nipples “seem to interchange well with breastfeeding.“ Although they come in two stages, “stage 1 is good, but stage 2 is too big, there needs to be something in between.“ Playtex Ventair bottles come with “so many different parts.” Be prepared to clean them all, especially the little crevices of the air vents. Many reviewers comment that “mold started growing from the vent holes.” It is also crucial to get the bottom piece screwed on correctly or there will be a mess all over.

I received one of the Playtex Ventaire Wides from my OB during one of my pre-natal visits and when I had to begin supplementing breastfeeding with the bottle decided to give it a shot. We soon ended up buying more. — — They come in two styles - regular and wide. They also have… read full review »

Not the best gas reducing bottle.

I was surprised to read all the positive reviews as I did not find these to be that great. There are several parts to clean and put together and I am sure once you get used to that it wouldn't be a big deal. I didn't like putting the disc in the bottom, I always had to run my finger nail… read full review »

These are the best bottles i ever used and wouldnt ever switch or try anything else.Easy to use and clean which saves me time and money.Less air bubbles for baby which is the most important thing to most parents.You can put these in the dish washer.The vents along with the bottles and nipples are replaceable.The bottles come in different sizes and shapes along with the nipples(i.e wide or regular).The flows are slow and fast depending on the stage you want.You can use the smaller 4oz ones for newborns and then the larger ones as they get older.I would recommend these to anyone especially a… read full review »

Great bottles once you figure them out.

Experienced Parent, mom of 2, value conscious

AUG

2007

The bottles overall are great. I have used them with both of my children. I have only bought new nipples and the bottome pieces for my second child. They are great in preventing air bubbles in the milk. My only issue with them is that they need a stage in between nipple one and two. Number two is a lot bigger and caused both of my children to choke and spit up. If the nipples colapse during use the chances of the bottom being stuck is good. You must stretch the bottom rubber piece before putting it into the bottom of the bottle. If you look at the bottle you will know what I am talking about.… read full review »

When I had my first child in Dec of 2005, I saw so many different baby bottles that claimed to not keep a lot of air, easy assemble. But after buying a Browns Bottle, I was relieved when my best friend brought me some Vent Air bottles.....never used anything but those until she was finish with bottles all together. Now I will admit cleaning them were kind of annoying, but it was worth it cause other than that the bottles were excellent. —… read full review »

Great bottles to prevent painful gassiness!

FEB

I've used these bottles through all of my babies and swear by them. They are uniquely designed with a removable bottom that sucks the air out as the baby drinks - preventing them from swallowing the air and getting an upset stomach. The design has an added bonus of making them easier to clean too! The bend in shape also keeps the nipple full of milk. I've never had a problem with leaking… read full review »

I love the shape of this bottle, it helps my son to be able to drink out of it himself. I also love the color options and being able to mix and match the color pieces between other vent air bottles to give his bottles a different look. The only problem I have with it is if you do not get the bottom on just so, it may… read full review »

I nursed my son until he was 14 months old but I worked outside the homes from the time he was 2 months. My little guy switched easily from breast to bottle and back again with this bottle. — I liked that you could easily replace parts. I found them rather easy to clean. Although I did have to stretch out the bottoms when I boiled the filters. I didn't find it too much of a hassle. I loved that my baby didn't seem to take in extra air. And I loved that the pieces were exchangeable from the small to the tall size. I also liked… read full review »

Better than Dr. Brown's for Less Money Too!

When I was no longer able to breastfeed, I had to find a feeding system that worked almost as well, and that didn't give my baby added gas. I knew that finding a low-cost bottle that I could be sure wouldn't upset my baby's tummy would be hard to find, but then I came across the Playtex Ventaire system. Like the more expensive Dr. Brown's bottles, the Ventaire keeps air and bubbles from going into baby's tummy. Unlike Dr. Browns, the Ventaire doesn't cost a ton, and you don't need a teeny-tiny bottle brush to clean the tube after every feeding! The unique shape of the… read full review »

Disappointed in these bottles

Well, we used these bottles with our older 2 children, but just for an occasional use. — When our 3rd baby came along and we decided to bottle feed her from the newborn age, we thought we'd just get some more of these bottles and be happy. — Boy were we wrong!! — — Because we were using these all the time (as opposed to just every once in a while with our older 2 children), we started to notice some problems! — — The biggest problem was in the way the nipples are made. — They have a "y" shaped cut instead of a hole. Well, the problem with this is… read full review »

As a parent of one child and pretty soon of my second, i recommend these playtex bottle. Why? Well, with my first child i tried regular bottles. I was a first time parent and did'nt know what effect it could have on my baby. I realized that my baby would not go to sleep with peace. It would take for ever trying to get him to stop crying. His stomach would be bloaded for a long time. So i thought maybe he needs more burping or maybe he is sick or something. It was not until i took him to the doctor and they told me that everything was fine that i realize that it had to be something simple that… read full review »

The perfect choice for all of my children

NOV

2007

Choosing the "right" bottle seemed one of the more difficult choices for me when my oldest was born 6 1/2 years ago. She had alot of problems with "gas" from the time she was born and nothing seemed to help. I did not want to medicate her without trying other options, so after exhaustive efforts, someone suggested to try a new type of bottle. I could not believe how many choices there were. I tried so many different kinds and still nothing helped her. I searched and researched and finally choose the Platex Ventaire. I was so happy with my choice that it… read full review »

We tried several bottles before settling on the Playtex Vent-aire. Our baby used to get pretty gassy, but since we began using these, he hardly ever has a problem. They're light, easy to assemble/disassemble - the bottom just screws on and off and the rubbery vent pops in and out. These bottles are easy to clean and don't leak. Also, there's a bend in the shape, so the liquid slides easily toward the nipple, helping to reduce air-sucking along with the vent in the bottom. They're durable and run about $10-$12 for a 3-pack, either 6 oz. or 9 oz. They come in standard and wide widths, and other… read full review »

Best Bottle I have found

FEB

These are the best thing I have found for my babies. They are great at preventing bubbles and the speed of the stage one nipple is perfect for newborns to a few months. These are the only bottles that I buy. They also come in several sizes, which is nice. The cons are that there are more pieces to clean and lose. You can buy replacement parts though. The other problem is that the Stage two nipple does not work as well. The speed is just wrong. Also, you can have big accidents if you don't check to make sure that the bottom is screwed on… read full review »
