Linda,

Thanks for the very helpful post! I purchased the Phillips Avent bottle sterilizer with dryer and it has been a game changer for me. We were traveling all month so I was boiling everything and it was such a pain in the neck not to mention not exactly 100% sterile moving all the device parts around the kitchen. It's so nice to have the built in dryer and have everything ready to go when it's time for airway clearance.

One question regarding drying. I'm assuming as long as you keep the parts in the sterilizer after the drying cycle they are completely sterile if kept in the sterilizer with lid on and used within the next 24h? Your recommendations on drying are focused on drying and storing the devices outside of the sterilizer?

Thank you!
Kate
