Chicco

Advanced Sterilizer & Dryer

Very easy, convenient, ease of adding bigger and smaller pieces

I use this literally everyday and sometimes multiple times a day for my pump parts. This sterilizer is a lifesaver and is super quick. Originally I was going to by an expensive one but this one does the job. Sometimes dryer does not get it 100% dry but it’s not a big deal to me.

I have had this for a couple weeks now, and there are some things I like and others could use improvement. The sanitizer is convenient and seems to work well. However, I don’t find the dryer to work as well. Some parts are completely dry, but the bottles (especially in the bottom compartment) remain wet inside. Maybe it’s condensation? So now either way, I have to dry them with a paper towel. I paid extra specifically for the dryer function, so I am disappointed.

Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for this product.
I can’t say enough about how much I love the dryer and sterilizer. I think these two combined replenish time lost from doing both individually. It was easy for me to set up and use. I don’t have much time as a busy mom and this aids in freeing up space in my day.
It’s very convenient for me because whether it’s the pacifier, bottles or even my pump attachments I’m able to sterilize anything. I think the fact that it’s isn’t tiny is a lifesaver. I can put so many things in at once and walk away.
I will likely use this machine until it no longer functions. It’s that invaluable to me.

This product is pretty great, just in and press the buttons and let it do it’s thing! All in one machine you can sterilize and dry your items.
One thing I wish that came with it was a cup with the measurements of water you need. Other then that it’s pretty straight forward just a bit bulky but fits a great amount! I received this product through the stellar product testing panel.

This Chicco advanced sterilizer and dryer is so wonderful. I’m on my third child and never dreamed such a wonderful invention would exist. It holds so many pacifiers, breast pump parts and bottles all at one time that it’s insane. I’ve even sterilized the baby toys. I’m a very busy mom of three girls, two are in sports and homeschooled by me. The other one is my one month old. It’s so crucial that I can easily and efficiently sterilize all the baby things! I’m amazed by how it also dries them off for me. I was given this product to test as part of the stellar product testing panel in exchange for my honest review. I quickly got it out of the box and started using it right away as soon as it arrived. I’m not impressed with the cycles being so long but I understand why they are and that it makes it healthy for my baby. I use it less for that reason than I would if it only took five or ten minutes. Regardless this product has earned a permanent spot in my kitchen counter line up. And I’ll continue using it frequently as it is so easy to load and leave it!

This Chicco Advanced Sterilizer and Dryer that I was fortunate enough to receive through Stellar Product Testing Panel is a game change for me. I had this set up in minutes and ready to use. I no longer have to stand by the stove boiling water to sterilize bottles, nipples, pacifiers and toys. This is big enough to do 8oz bottles but also accommodates the 4oz. I have the option of doing lots at once with the full setup or for small batches I can use the bottom portion only. So far I've only used one of the settings which is the sterilize and dry. There are options of sterilize only, dry only and delayed start. I'm not sure I'll ever use any of the other options. The unit is rather quiet running and is done within 40 minutes. Everything is truly dry when it's done so I don't have to do anything but put them away. One thing I'm really happy with is the descaling alert. I don't have to worry about any buildup making it not effective as I know when I need to clean it. I feel good knowing that everything is sterile and I can rest assured the items I use with my daughter are safe for her.

Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me this Sterilizer. This device is great for sterilizing bottles and pump parts. It is large enough to fit the whole days worth of bottles so I can sterilize everything at once at night, then prep it for the next day since it’s all dry so quickly!

The design is sleek and modern. It is a little confusing to set up the first time, but once you figure it out that first time it’s super easy after that!

The major downside is that because it is so large, it’s difficult to store. I have to keep it on my counter which I don’t really like.

Otherwise it’s a great product and so helpful for keeping my baby healthy!

I'm a FTM and could not regularly find the time to bring a large pot of water to boil after handwashing (or dishwashing!) a handful of bottles, and then leaving them out to dry on a rack for hours before I could put them away. Glad that I finally got ahold of this sterilizer and dryer combo because I feel like this Chicco model makes things so quick and easy and gives me peace of mind since I'm able to fully and properly clean all of my baby's bottles and accessories now.

The dryer is the selling point on this machine for me, it removes 99% of the liquid from the bottles and accessories and even gets moisture out of the tiny vents in bottle nipples. I like being able to put away bottles in preparation for our next feed as soon as the dry cycle finishes. If you don't need to dry then the sterilization cycle itself is still quicker than boiling a pot of water (at least for me!) and takes about 10 minutes total. They advertise a 5 minute cycle but that doesn't include time for the machine to heat up which is close to 5 minutes.

The machine is nearly silent during sterilization but does have a humming noise during the dry cycle. This really hasn't bothered me but I do appreciate that there is an option to delay the start if you don't want to be bothered by the noise.

Overall I'm super happy with the unit, the settings are easy to use, I love the countdown display, it looks pretty nice (which is great, because it will sit on my counter for the next year!), and it makes a full and proper cleaning feel like easier than before.

I was given this sterilizer to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

This sterilizer and dryer is great for 3 reasons. The first- it sterilizes and dries meaning I don’t have to dry off the bottles and parts after they are clean. The second- it can be 2 different sizes- so if I just have to sterilize pacifiers and not the bottles too- I can do a quick cycle and have less pieces involved. The last thing I like about this sterilizer/dryer combo is the size of the bottle chamber- I just have a 2 month old right now but as she grows to larger bottle sizes, the Advanced Sterilizer and Dryer will be able to accommodate that size as well as sippy cups and toys. My one suggestion for improvement is that the actual product parts (the chamber, divider and top) are still wet after the drying cycle is complete so even though the bottles and pacifiers were dry I had to towel of the actual sterilizer to get it dry. Thank you Stellar Parent Panel for letting me test this product!
