Playtex Drop-ins Question - Original or Premium?

I've decided to go with the Playtex Drop-ins after all the great reviews.
However, I'm realizing there are 2 different kinds - the Original that has a latex nipple and that flat-like cover (takes up less space in diaper bag ;) and the "premium" one that I believe holds the expandable liners and has the silicon nipples.
Just wondering if one is better than the other. Is the premium one replacing the original?
Thanks!!!

I think the premium are easier for them to hold as they get older since there are curves on it. They are the updated version of the original. You can interchange the nipples.

I agree, I use both but only the silicone nipples.

I dont like the original, even tho the caps are flater, i find they leak if they get turned over.

i have used both with DD...other than the nipples being dif. (which you can interchange) other then looks there isnt a whole lot that is different about them...both use expandable liners, both can hold 8-10oz....so i guess its just what you think looks better!

We had both and used them for both kids. After pretty much 2 years of constant use and being washed in the dishwasher daily the original ones were fine, the premium ones all cracked before ds was off bottles and had to be tossed.

I like the originals, and DS was better with the latex nipples until we moved up to the fast nipples - then I switched to the silicone.

Same here.
As for the liners, the expandable hold up to 10 oz, I feel its a wast since my DD does not drink that much at one time.. so I stayed w/orignal liners.. now we use BJ's brand they are just as good and are cheaper.. 200 8oz liners for $9.99!! Chat Icon Chat Icon
