Two and a half years ago, when we purchased Avent bottles for our oldest son, they were not BPA-Free. The good thing is, now Avent only makes BPA-Free bottles! In order to tell that the Avent bottles you are buying, are in fact BPA-Free, look for the bottles with a natural honey-colored tint to them. In the picture above, the older style of bottle is pictured on the left, while the newer style (the BPA-Free version) is on the right. You can see the different, as the older style is crystal clear, and the newer version has a tanish honey-colored tint to it.
In 2008, we had trouble with them leaking. I was desperate, so I contacted Avent. After some "trouble-shooting" we learned how properly seal the nipple, to the ring of the bottle to make them not leak. After that, we had no more to very few leaks. If they leaked beyond this point, it was obviously our fault for not sealing them properly.
I like Avent bottles, mainly because they have a built-in valve to help reduce air going into your baby's tummy. Avent bottles are also proven to help reduce colic! A major plus, there. Breastfeeding Moms also like these bottles because the have a natural-shaped nipple which helps aid against nipple confusion.
Another very nice thing about Avent bottles is that their nipples, rings, and spouts are all interchange with their sippy cups (which we own, as well, but that's another review all in it's own!)
