Getting up in the middle of the night to prepare a bottle for your baby is no easy task, and it often requires trips to the kitchen to heat up a bottle. Bottle warmers can make the job a little easier, and even after your baby has outgrown bottles, bottle warmers might be useful to heat up food pouches, and many have sterilizing functions.

To help you decide which bottle warmer could be right for you, a Consumer Reports usability specialist assessed eight popular models. Each one was evaluated for warming speed and ease of use. We also evaluated them for overheating to find out whether they exceed 104° F, which is the maximum temperature experts recommend to avoid the deterioration of important nutrients.

Finally, we recruited 15 current bottle warmer users to provide feedback on what they thought were the most important features in a bottle warmer. Some of the most important things they considered were how easy the warmers are to use, whether they overheated, how quickly they worked, the size of the device, and how easy they were to clean after a bottle warming.
