    i've got one and from memory its 200ml you put in - water comes near the line round the outside about 1.5 cm from bottom. just pour the water in and stick it in microwave for 6 mins or so. if i can find the instructions i'll post more accurately but thats how i used it.

    The water will overflow from the middle bit to the outer bit. So dont worry too much - but if it doubt, with all steam ones put the water in the middle.

    yeah the water overflows from the middle bit you dont need to fill that up specifically, i wouldnt worry too much about exactly how much water, i was all good measuring it at the start (the way you do!) and then i was just firing it in.

    I think that breast pumps and the bits are AOK in a steamer if I remember rightly from my instructions that I binned last week! And I have personally put in breast pumps and bits into an electric steamer before.

    But the bottle brushes and teething rings are definitely not steamable (cannot take the heat and melt).

    well done on feeding her solely on EBM :T . That must take it's time with all the expressing & sterilising.
    If you are after another pump, so you can alternate them, Asda's baby event starts soon. I had a leaflet from them. They will be selling the new Tommee Tippee breast pump & microwave/cold water sterilisers for £10 each. I bought one of each last time it was on offer, & finding them both really good (much better than the awful new avent pump I had last time...the first one was great, then they 'improved' it!)
  • Hi I have that one - you put 200ml water in it and then put on full power for the time it states on the hinge - it depends on the power of your microwave. It is between 4-8 mins. I have to do it for 8 mins. I use it for bottles/cups/dummies etc anything that needs sterilising.

    isnt it weird i'm the exact opposite of you - i had the avent breast pump, i borrowed it off a friend and loved it, found it really easy and comfortable to use. then in the last asda baby event i bought the tommee tippee one (it was £10) and I HATED it, it was quite painful to use and i couldnt express anything with it. i like the avent one because of the soft silicon bit that goes over your boob and the tommee tippe one didnt have this and was quite hard.
