What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Follow the specific method instructions: microwave use calls for exactly 60ml of water and 2 minutes, while cold-water use calls for 1.25 litres and a quarter tablet for 15 minutes. The manufacturer advises keeping the steriliser upright when carrying it full, as water could leak from the valve. Customer feedback also reports leakage when overfilled. The listing claims the unit fits microwaves horizontally or vertically, but microwave compatibility depends on the appliance and available space.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Parents travelling with feeding equipment and needing a compact steriliser for smaller items.
Buyers who want a choice of microwave or cold-water sterilisation and can follow each method's separate requirements.

Less suited to
