Best Tommy Tippee 'starter' kit to buy?

2nd baby but forgotten about all this! Used Dr Browns bottles last time due to reflux but they are a pain to wash. Hoping to use tommy tippee as have bought a Perfect Prep. What is the best stuff to get - is a starter kit worth it? Will the steriliser fit dr browns bottles if we have to use them? Anyone tried their new Ultra bottles?

I don't know what's in starter kit by I used tt bottles for both dc and they were great. I liked the fact you start with small bottles when they're only on 2 or 3 oz.

I'd try to stick with the original tt bottles as the other ranges are more expensive and not sold as widely. Don't underestimate how many bottles and teats you get through in a year, either wearing out of losing!

Bottle choice is down to preferences (you AND baby!) but just to say that you don't need to use TT bottles to use the perfect prep by any stretch. We use Medela bottles which have been amazing (the calma teat is brilliant ) and use the PP machine (a lifesaver!

You don't need to use tommee tippee bottles with the perfect prep. You can use any bottles. I use Avent classic, I don't like the tommee tippee bottles as when you make them up out of the steriliser and pull on the teat it can pull all the way out of the lid, where as no matter how hard you pull on the Avent teats they don't pull through.

I used Avent bottles with a TT steriliser. Check John Lewis before you buy, they tend to have the full starter kit on there and they price match. I always had it in my head the John Lewis was expensive for stuff but ive got everything from there this time.
