Types of Sterilisers
- Microwave sterilisers disinfect objects with heat. They tend to be quite small and keep the baby dishes perfectly clean for 3 to 24 hours, depending on the specific device. Choose your steriliser based on the inner dimensions of your microwave oven and always make sure that the dishes or toys you’re trying to sterilise are actually microwavable.
- An electric steam steriliser disinfects baby bottles with hot steam. It’s usually larger, which means it can fit more objects at once, and it keeps them sterilised for 3 to 24 hours. Electric sterilisers usually come with additional functions.
- A self-sterilising bottle is a baby bottle you can easily disinfect in the microwave by rearranging the parts and adding a bit of water, without using any other device. You’ll especially appreciate this model while travelling.
- A bottle warmer and steriliser in one can disinfect your baby bottles while keeping them at the desired temperature.
Our tip: When you’re travelling or you only need to disinfect the baby bottle once in a while, you can use sterilising bags which are designed for a quick steam sterilisation in the microwave oven.
