Can this be used to sterilize other bottles like the medela baby bottles?

It seems like anything you can fit inside the container would be able to be sterilized.

Can this be used with stainless steel bottles?

Metal can go in the microwave, it's very thin metal that can't (think tinfoil, or plates with tiny bits of metal). The inside of your microwave is actually surrounded by a big sheet of metal. Metal causes the waves in the microwave to bounce off of it, keeping them inside of the microwave and heating up the food. If you put a stainless steel pan filled with water with a cover inside the microwave and turn it on, nothing is going to blow up, but the water will not heat up either. The stainless steel will just cause the waves to bounce off of it.

Can I use the bottles right after I sterilize them since they don't come out dry?

I am not sure. But I personally use them wet. Cause now the water is sterile to.

Don’t buy it! Waste of money

An absolute disappointment! After only two weeks it stopped working. The machine just didn’t turn on anymore. I tried to claim the warranty but of course no one will help you. Amazon cant help because they are not the seller and when trying to reach out to Phillips, there is an error on their website and no contact number. How convenient for them….Besides all of that, I am also disappointed in the bad display. The machine doesn’t tell you how long it is sterilising for. Which I think is kind of important.In summary: Don’t buy it. Go for the Momcozy steriliser instead.

Item stopped working

Item stopped working after 3 months. Was trying toget it fixed through the warranty which is valid for 2 years, however was declined as product was ordered from USA. As I was told the item has been damaged due to voltage difference, because it was ordered from Amazon USA (it wasn’t available at this time in UAE). Unfortunately nobody from Amazon informed me that this issue might happen cuz its another country and another voltage. Just disappointed
