I received mine yesterday via
Bololo.net

kathyhg. I purchased the Growns BB Sterilizer & dryer from Amazon. I've been using it for several months and am pleased with the performance.
Yes, also the US Amazon isn’t carrying the Bololo. I know someone who is in the process of getting one directly through the company. They’ve been difficult to deal with in the past regarding the filters. I really can’t say what’s up with them.
Here is some research I did a couple years ago and posted to social media. It’s abbreviated and it could be there are design changes. In addition to the below devices, I am hearing about more people purchasing the Baby Brezza. From my research, all of the tested baby bottles seem to get the job done. However, my preference was for the longest sterilizing cycle available.
“ I like the oblong design of the Avent but do not care for the built-in baby bottle posts on the bottom of the device (see photo). They make placement of the nebulizing parts difficult. Also, the drying cycle only runs 30 minutes which wasn’t long enough for all the parts to dry. I had to remember to run the dry cycle a second time.
For these reasons, I wasn’t entirely happy with the Avent so I ordered a Wabi. Wabi is a popular device and on their website, unlike the Avent, they specifically mention nebulizer sterilization. They even have a video from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. I unboxed it and thought it looked flimsy. I also didn’t like that it only required 80 ml of water whereas the Avent has the capacity for 130 ml. More water means more time sterilizing and I want to make sure that it gets the job done. Another problem with the Wabi is its circular design that makes placement of multiple nebulizer and Aerobika parts difficult. (I wasn’t willing to pile them up.) In the end, I decided the Wabi wasn’t better than the Avent and did not use it.
So, with two sterilizers that seemed less than ideal, I ordered a Bololo. I like the quality of the plastic and the design. Similar to the Avent, it is oblong and I was happy to see that the baby bottle posts were optional. Also, it requires a whopping 150 ml of water and the dry cycle goes for 45 minutes. Do you have a baby bottle sterilizer? Please share your experience!”
