Not as good as other Avent bottles,
My daughter has been using avent bottles exclusively since she was born. I bought this for her when she was 5 months, she likes holding up the bottle with the handles. We have since thrown away the softer plastic bottle that this came with and use the top and handles with our other avent bottles. I’ve never once had an issue with the harder avent bottle leaking (other than when it’s not attached properly) so it was disappointing that this different, cheap fealing bottle was provided with this set as it leaked so much, it literally poured half the bottle all over my daughter. I tried using different screw pieces thinking that was the issue, and it continued to dump the contents, so I threw it out.

|Love Avent, hate this bottle,
We use Avent bottles exclusively at home to feed our daughter (use Playtex Drop-Ins when we’re on the go, since it’s a lot easier to clean up), so I thought this would be the perfect solution for training her to self-feed. Now, if I could rate the “Bottle to 1st Cup Trainer” in PARTS, here’s how it would break down:
1. Handles – Awesome, easy for little hands to grip, fits all other Avent bottles
2. Bottle w/Design – Horrible, IMHO. Looks similar to the Avent Advance bottles we’ve been using, but it’s made of flimsier plastic and the bottle top is in multiple pieces (unlike the Advance – 1-piece anti-colic top/nipple). No matter how experienced you are at putting these pieces together, I swear this thing leaks half of the feeding on your child. The design is cute, but that’s about it. Removing one star for this.
3. Sippy Cup Top – Again, not sure if it has something to do with the multi-piece top, but I can’t seem to get the soft spout to NOT leak. Really annoying. Removing another star for this.
Overall, I like that all of the pieces are interchangable – the handles and sippy cup spout can be used with my Avent Advance bottles. However, I’d like it even more if Avent just sold THESE handles (not the magic trainer handles – they’re different!) separately!

|Great bottle, lousy sippy,
There are great bottles but lousy sippy cups. I thought we’d save a bundle by just switching the nipple tops out to the sippy tops and adding handles – what a great multi-function cup! That was until my toddlers decided to drop them from the high chairs. Upon impact the tops just explode off about 50% of the time, spilling/splashing 9 oz of milk all over the kitchen. Even if you screw them on as tightly as you can, it still happens roughly 50% of the time. Of course, with an infant, this isn’t a concern, but once they start holding them (and dropping them) themselves, look out. The colored avent cups don’t do this by the way, just the ones that you convert from bottles. There are better sippys out there though that leak a lot less than the avent ones though (even the good colored ones I mean) like playtex for example – and theirs are insulated too.
Again, great bottles, lousy sippy.
