Pros: Bottle is comfortable to hold, nipple has nice natural shape which is breastfeeding friendly.
Cons: Ounce markings wash off, bottle leaks, bottles are a tad pricey.
The Bottom Line: The bottle is nice and the nipple allows a breastfed baby to avoid nipple confusion. We were turned off by the leaks, but perhaps we got a bad batch.

| karengop's Full Review: Evenflo Elite Sensitive Response Wide Nipple... |
When our baby refused to drink from her Avent bottles after 6 months of struggling to get her to take it, we tried the Evenflo Elite bottles. Right away we noticed that the nipple was shaped more like mom than Avent nipples. Our daughter must have noticed too, since she had no problems taking this bottle and seemed to nurse from it and look as content as she did at the breast. We would have continued to use these bottles if it weren't for the leaks we encountered all the time. We also weren't too thrilled that the ounce markings washed off in the dishwasher. We found that the bottle would not fit in our stroller, highchair and car cup holders either. The collar and nipples fit on Gerber New Traditons and Playtex disposable nursers, so the cup holder problem can be easily solved. The leaking prompted us to go back to the store and look for another bottle, and that's when we came across the Evenflo Ultra which is half the price and has the same nipple shape. The Ultra is designed to fit on standard reuseable bottles and this particular bottle was a better fit for us given that they didn't leak and could fit in any cupholder.
