Glass bottles?
Anyone planning to use (or have used if btdt)? I'm trying to decide which brand- the big ones seem to be Avent, Dr. Browns and Lifefactory. I'm leaning towards Lifefactory because the sleeves for Avent can't go in the dishwasher and Dr. Brown's has a bunch of plastic parts, which kind of defeats the purpose of glass.
Thoughts?

Glass bottles?
Used them for DD#1 and plan on using them again for DD#2. I used the Born Free and the Evenflo glass ones. Believe it or not the Evenflo glass ones were amazing and so strong I dropped a few and not one ever cracked. They were also a lot easier to clean then the Born free because they had no extra parts to them.

Re: Glass bottles?
I'm having th same dilemma. Dd had major stomach issues so we needed the dr. Brown for the venting system. I know the plastic tube sort of defeats the purpose, but the bottle being glass vs. Plastic still cuts down on a lot of the plastic.
We may try Avent first because there is a slight venting system.
I looked into life factory and am concerned there is no venting system. Perhaps dc2 won't have th same issues, but I'm not sure I want to take a chance as those bottles cost a fortune.

Thanks. Does anyone know where born free and evenflo are made? I know avent is made in UK, Dr. Brown's in the USA and lifefactory in USA/Europe.
I like avent but those sleeves are ridiculous. They look so cumbersome and a PITA to clean.

DS didn't take the nipples but I pumped into the evenflo ones. They were awesome! SO easy to clean and now, over 4 years later, I'm doing the same for DD. Love these bottles!

Are born free coming off the market? They seem to be on clearance at a few places.
We used glass when dd was an infant and we didn't use a sleeve. I don't remember ever dropping a bottle.
