The award-winning Philips Avent bottle warmer is our pick for the fastest bottle warmer—and it’s not just fast, it’s reliable too! Heating effectively in just three minutes, this warmer also circulates the liquid to reduce the risk of hot spots during the heating process. An easy-to-read progress indicator on the front lights up in three sections; once you see the third light click on, you’ll know baby’s milk is warm and ready to go. This option requires an outlet and a water bath, so it’s best suited for destination use, but the portable size and single-piece design makes packing for travel a breeze.

Designed for travel, the Quark BuubiBottle is a multifunction marvel that both heats milk (or water for formula!), and holds it at the appropriate temperature (a great feature for when baby graduates to other drinks). The BuubiBottle boasts a durable, portable design, smart temperature controls to bring breast milk up to its proper temperature gently and real-time temperature display. It even comes with a special cleaning brush, designed to wash the interior with nothing but a drop of soap and a good shake.

And while these bells and whistles are all well and good, when it comes to a rechargeable product, you want to make sure the battery works well. In this regard, the BuubiBottle doesn’t disappoint; its USB-compatible battery is designed to work for 10 hours on a single charge.
