Thoroughly love this product - easy to use, easy to clean and wouldn’t have lived without it. Sound on machine is very loud and has no volume level unlike the new Prep Machine so I would definitely recommend the new machine over this one but still a fantastic product and have had no problems with it whatsoever.
I love this machine. It’s great for making fast bottles when needed. I just find it very noisy at a night time. I’m looking at getting the day/night version for my new baby. Otherwise a great product.
This is honestly the most amazing product I have used since having a baby
Practical, easy and quick
No more making a bottle and hearing your baby cry with hunger until the bottle is cool enough
Every bottle at "ready to eat" temperature.
Before I used a kettle then a sink full of cold water to cool down a bottle which was hell with a screaming baby needing fed! I bought this praying it would help and it has changed my life. My son is no longer screaming his head off while waiting for a bottle as he only has to wait two mins! Easy to use, you just select how many oz you need press the button, put powder in then press button again and boom. Easy as that. I was confused at first as I would select 5 oz and when the bottle was ready it was almost at 6 but that’s just the weight of the powder in the 5 oz of water!
Great idea but not great for newborn babies who start off on smaller amounts of milk.
If you make the minimum which is 4oz then you waste it if your baby is only on 2/3oz bottles.
The beep is also very loud when making a bottle in the night and trying not to wake everyone else.
Easy to use, easy to change filters and easy to clean.
Filters seem expensive but last 3 months so as soon as your baby is on cows milk you should only need 3 maybe 4 filters.
I could not be without my perfect prep machine. Bottles are made in two minutes to the ideal temperature so no waiting around or messing about with sitting bottles in hot or cold water to reach the right temperature. This can also be operated one handed when your baby refuses to be put down!
Bottles are prepared in 2 minutes so no messing around when baby is crying.
Weaknesses:
Wish it held more water but I know the product would be bigger.

I love my Perfect Prep Machine - my son is 5 months old now & out of all the things I have bought for him, this would be one of the items I deem a necessity. My son is fed on demand so we don't prepare bottles beforehand, just as & when he wants them & this machines makes it so easy. When I bought it I was worried I'd be changing the filter or descaling it constantly but I have only had to do each thing once in 5 months & he has 4 bottles a day (currently on 8oz) - I do only use mineral water in mine I must add as tap water can be very hard. The only thing I've had problems with recently is the temperature light coming on & this is due to the current heat wave we're having - I have to pop some ice cubes in to cool it down.
Having previously had 2children 8 and 5 i never bothered with one of these but since having my 5 month old i bought one for quickness when making a bottle and omg its brilliant so easy to use and to clean makes bottles within minutes a saint in the night
I absolutely love the perfect prep machine. I really wish they were around when I had my first 2 children. It has to be the best thing I have bought for baby number 3! No more waiting for bottles to cool with a screaming baby in your arms, a perfect bottle ready to drink in 2 minutes. If you are even thinking about bottle feeding your baby then definitely buy one of these!
Would not be without my perfect prep machine. It's very easy to use and prepares bottles at the perfect temperature for your baby and the fact that you can have a bottle made in less than 2 minutes is a god send. I've used it with two of my babies ( it wasn't out when my oldest was born) and wouldn't know were I'd be without. Highly recommend this product to anyone
I absolutely love my prep machine. When I first had my little girl I was boiling water and cooling it and it took forever. Then we invested in this after it was recommended to us and honestly i would be lost without it. It makes a bottle in around 2 mins so it's ideal.. it also makes your bottle at the perfect temperature too feed your baby immediately. It beeps to tell you when the hot water is done and to insert your powder and allows two mins too do so. Then you press the button and it dispensers the cool water. You can also select how many ounces your baby is having and it dispenses exactly that amount.
I absolutely love the Tommee Tippee perfect prep machine and don't know what I would do without it. It is so easy to use and literally does make a bottle in 2 minutes. I can change my babies nappy and by the time I'm finished her bottle is ready! It is a real life saver for those night time feeds.
This has been a godsend for me! To easy to use. When baby is ready for a bottle it’s so quick to make one. The cleaning process isn’t too bad either. The filters are expensive though that’s the only down point
This is so easy to use, I haven't had any problems with this machine. I can't fault it. The filter doesn't take that long to filter the water. It tells you every time if anything needs changing, like the filter needs replacing or the temperature of the water is too hot, there is a light that comes on for each thing if there is anything wrong with them.
I couldn't have survived without this product. As a first time mum I worried about prep of bottles, temperature, correct make up of bottles etc. This took worry away. My baby has a two minute window from when hungry to screaming so this is great due to speed of making bottle up. It's nice design for kitchen. Easy to use and was a good price. Only complaint is despite often cleaning it I still have to follow the online video as it's not straight forward to clean.
If you are thinking of bottle feeding this is a mush have. I love how which it is and how dimple to use it is. It beeps at you to tell you when it’s done. (A tad annoying st 2am) I believe the newer ones have a silent mode in them. Which sounds great.
We love this, as it makes life so much easy especially middle of the night! Press of a button and voila a bottle is nearly ready!
Only issue I find is that personally my baby likes her milk more warmer than what the machine produces. Would have been nice if they had an option to increase temp volume!
We were lucky enough to get this as a gift so didn’t endure the price point effecting us! I would recommend this product regardless!
This has be a god send for both my kids. Makes late night feeding easier. It’s easy to use, can be used with any type of bottle as we use dr browns with it. A highly recommended product
very easy to use. Great for night feeds as don’t have to stand around waiting for kettles to be made and also is ready to give to baby no waiting around.
The prep machine is great especially in the early days when you have to do the late night, early morning feeds. It saves so much time not have to boil a kettle and then wait on water cooling. The fact you can have a bottle made at room temperature in under two minutes is great.
Unfortunately the measurements aren't always accurate. I was getting an ounce more water (without adding formula) than what the machine was set to. Tommee Tippee arranged a replacement machine only for it to not give enough water.
Always run the machine to check measurements and you will be fine.
This is a good product and it works really well. I like that it dispenses the right amount of cold and hot water to make sure the temperature is perfect for baby. However, it is quite expensive and it is not 100% necessary as you can easily make up a bottle yourself (for free).
As this is the first time around that we have used bottles I wasn’t sure if I would need one of these or not, so I decided not to go for one at the start and just use the kettle and a bowl of cold water to cool it down. After a month though we decided to get one of these and give it a go, and I’ve got to say, everything is so much easier now. We love this product, it’s easy to use, and stylish aswel. I would be lost without this one now.
This makes life so much easier especially if you have a fussy baby no waiting for the bottle to cool, from start to finish it took me 1 min and half to complete a full bottle. Perfect temp every time!
