which bottle do these work best on. I'm scared to get the Rubbermaid now because of the filter switch up.. I don't care if they still "technically" work, I want the original piece or bottle

I'm not sue if my bottle is the original or not when I bought it 6 months ago but it came with the screw on filter so it sounds like it could be. But now all I can find are the drop-in filters, and only on Amazon, but they work just as well as the screw in kind. And since my post I realized that even when the filter doesn't sit straight the bottle doesn't leak so long as the cap is tightened securely. I totally love mine and won't use anything else.

Amazon emailed me your question, as I had purchased one of these. I didn't know the answer, but got curious and went to the Rubbermaid website. The question was asked there, and their answer was that they WOULDN'T answer, due to the highly competitive nature of the industry! After reading that, I would assume the answer to your question to be "yes", and I myself will hesitate before buying another Rubbermaid product. Hey, if they won't answer a perfectly legitimate question, regarding their customer's health and safety of their product, I'll spend my dollars elsewhere where full disclosure is offered!

I too use the original cork and agree if you have to force the cork in then you are surely getting a secure fit. I have used silicone based bottle stoppers but like the original cork better.

I use the dishwasher... Those straws are a pain in the butt to get clean any other way. I can't even be sure they are all that clean after the dishwasher but I'd think that'd be the best solution. Good luck! PS-I use one of those top rack dishwasher container thingys that you put smaller stuff in (ie. Straws, bottle nipples, small bottle parts) for the straws.

As far as I know there aren't any model specific bottles, they should all work with all the models.

Hi there. Don't wast your time looking for plastic bottle replacement. Just buy whole thing. I couldn't find it.

I have found that the thickness and sturdiness of the plastic is what's most important. I have discovered that a dish washing liquid bottle (Palmolive, Dawn, etc.) works the best. All of the plastic water bottles I've tried are too flimsy and collapse when squeezed to discharge the water.

My glass ones seem to get etched by the minerals in water, the acrylic not as bad, but I have switched to bottle water. After seeing how the acrylic is made with smooth clean lines not plastic corners caulked together, love it. You do have to make sure that your filters and fixtures fit. Unlike glass, acrylic top isn't completely open. Bought light that fits mine and a big filter system that has hoses going into tank.

I can vouch for months and months of hand washing. These labels don't come off until you take the off. Go ahead and try them on your baby bottles (glass or plastic). I have plastic containers. I also have glass containers I use for freezing. They work great. I can't vouch for putting them through a dish washer, but I say again, these label don't come off. Hope I've helped!

I have 5 of these filters that I switch between when they get clogged. They work with the BLC180w, that's what I am using them with. I still have the filter that came with the tool. I have washed it several times and dried it with a hair dryer. With each washing the fabric starts to decompress and get fuzzy. Like I say, I switch between 5 filters so I can't say how long a single unit may last when used and reused alone. I have cycled the original filter through the rotation about 10 times so far and though it is fuzzier than when it was first installed, it seems to be holding up pretty well.

As far as I can tell, only the provided bottles work. However, you might find another bottle with the same type of threads.

I also used a pipe cleaner (the kind with a few metal strands also works best), to stick in the folding plastic part (not the bite valve). As this gets gunked up also. If you take the long plastic straw off, you can actually get the pipe cleaner all the way through, and you can pull it back and forth. I love this bottle also, but it is something you need to keep up with the cleaning on.

Hello Mei, First My apologies for the confusion I must have caused. The new set of these discs (the ones that are not so rubbery) for sure they DO work with the glass natural Avent bottles. I tried them over the weekend, they fit great. I remember trying before so now I am thinking that maybe it was with the older kind, which I have already disposed of. Again, my apologies.

They state on the package that they're not to be used in the dishwasher. I use a bottle brush. The top is designed to work with Sodastream's custom design, so it probably isn't compliant with other devices (though I've never tried...it's roughly twice the diameter of a standard Pepsi two liter top though)

I have the glass bottles and a plastic sippy cup and they both use the same type of nipple. I wondered this same question and thought perhaps it had something to do with the bottle being plastic or glass. Otherwise I wanted glass anyways so I guess it didn't matter enough for me to put out a question about it. Call the company.

I originally used the plastic version of this bottle and yes, those nipples, including the plastic ring that secures them to the bottle, ended up fitting onto the glass perfectly. There were no problems with leaking. In fact now that I've completely switched over I don't even know which ones were the original nipples and tops that has come with the plastic bottles.

Technically, yes. My husband tends to confuse those, and I have found many a plastic container with the lids that go to the glass ones. I don't think that was Rubbermaid's intention, but it's been nice to use those interchangeably.
