Product Description

As the safest, strongest disposable ever, VIA gives you a whole new level of convenience when it comes to storing breast milk. VIA NurserVIA is easier to use than flimsy liners, and safer to transport, freeze and reheat. With VIA, you can dispose the base, or re-sterilize for use up to three times. The VIA Breast Milk Storage Kit is ideal for mothers who want more convenience from disposables. The sterile-packed VIA bases are ready to use immediately and are ideal for vacations, day trips or when on the go. Mothers who already use the Avent ISIS Breast Pump easily begin using VIA to store and feed breast milk. (ISIS is not included in this kit.) Just attach your ISIS to the VIA Disposable Base with the adaptor included in this kit. With Avent, you express milk directly into the same bases also used for storing and feeding. Since you never have to transfer milk between containers, you preserve the valuable nutrients of your breast milk and save time. The twist-on lid seals the base tightly: no mess,no leaks, just space-saving storage that you can safely stack, pack and transport.The adaptor also attaches the same naturally shaped, Avent Anti-Colic Nipple of the Natural Feeding Bottle, so you can use both systems interchangeably. (Nipple is not included in this kit.)With the VIA Breast Milk Storage Kit, you just replace the base! Adaptors and lids are not disposable, and should be kept to use with the VIA Disposable Base Refills.Includes:10 VIA 6-oz. sterile-packed bases that can be disposed, or re-sterilized for use up to three times10 twist-on lids2 adaptors

Convenient - A. Williams, May 07, 2008

I bring these to work with me to store my milk after pumping. They are more durable than the bags, which is nice because I have to share the fridge at work, and you can reuse them which saves you money. This product also includes an attachment that allows you to pump directly into the storage containers and/or attach a nipple and feed from.

Great product - Dairy Queen, May 04, 2008

I was looking for an inexpensive non-disposable storage containers because the bags were emptying my wallet very quickly. I use 3 of the storage containers daily and I absolutely love this product. They hold 6 oz instead of the 4 I continually finding, they do not contain BPA, and they do not leak if accidentally tipped over. I don't have use for the top that holds a nipple as I do not use avent bottles, so I can't comment on those. I do not know if this product is freezer friendly but I already have enough milk frozen that I don't need to do this.
When I recieved the product the instructions say not to re-use more than 3 times. I may not have purchased had I known this but I have used them for 2 months now and haven't had any problems. I will recycle them when I am no longer pumping. I would use again for any future children.

Avent's only BPA Free bottle!! - Heather, Apr 09, 2008

I love this product because they are the only Avent "bottle" that are BPA free!! I love the Avent nipples since they are more natural shaped and my son switches from breast to these easily. I refuse to use any of Avents regular bottles since they are very high in BPA. So these are great! I can pump directly into them and then attach the nipple and not have to worry about poisoning my son. I wish they had more BPA free bottles that are not disposable but I am just happy they at least have these.

horrible containers - Lacy M. Schwartz, Nov 08, 2007

these are horrible, they don't pour well, and can only be used a couple times. If you want more durable better quality and probably cheaper storage I would go with milk mates. Plus milk mates bottles can attach to certain breast pumps, mine is lansinoh, and its a perfect fit!

These are horrible - new mom, Jun 14, 2007

The lids are so hard to screw on straight. You think they are on tight, then when you hold them up at eye level you will often find that they are on crooked. Also when you twist the lid open or closed, it is hard to get a good grip because the gripping area is very thin.

They are expensive too, a total waste of money. Who wants a disposable system where you have to keep (and wash) the lids?
