Paint coming off Dr Browns bottles

4 replies

Has anyone noticed paint coming off the bottles with light/green writing (bottles with dark/blue writing seem ok)? We only handwash and use sterilising solution and within 2 months all markings have disappeared, with paint ending up on the teat and other parts of the bottle! I have emailed Dr Browns several times, in the UK and the US, and had no response at all. Am getting angry as my baby has probably ingested paint and I am not even getting the courtesy of a reply!

I noticed this as well when I put them in the pot to sterilise them. Not using them anymore, though, as baby refuses to take the bottle, but that's another story....
Hope you get a reply from them soon.

I've had no problems with mine and they are nearly a year old. I steam steralise though rather than putting them in the solution.

Resolved - spoke to Tesco, as had bought them there. They were very helpful and contacted Dr Browns for me. Tesco just called and Dr Browns are in the process of writing to me but basically there was a manufacturing fault in a batch of bottles. They will send me replacements and want the defective ones back for checks. Very impressed with Tesco.

Glad it was resolved. My MAM ones did that & they posted me out new ones the same day I contacted them.
