The MAM Easy Start Anti-Colic bottle offers unique convenience with its self-sterilizing capability - simply add water to the base and microwave for three minutes. Its patented ventilation system in the bottle base (rather than the nipple) helps reduce colic symptoms while maintaining a simple three-part design. The SkinSoft silicone nipple, with a 94% acceptance rate according to the manufacturer, features a symmetrical shape that adapts to baby's mouth movements. Available in 5oz, 9oz and 11oz sizes, the bottle has an ergonomic shape that's easy for small hands to hold.
While praised for its anti-colic performance, some parents note the measurement markings could be more precise at smaller volumes. The included protective cap doubles as a measuring cup but doesn't always prevent minor leaks during transport. MAM offers matching pacifiers that use the same nipple shape, helping babies who use both transition more easily between them. The bottles are BPA-free and dishwasher safe, with the base vent being particularly easy to clean compared to internal vent systems.
