I was sent these glass baby bottles to try out and share with you, and I actually wanted to talk about why I think glass bottles so much better than plastic.
These are the Evenflo Balance+ Glass Wide Neck Baby Bottles, and they’re simple in the best way.
First, let’s talk glass vs plastic for a second because this matters more than people realize.
Plastic bottles get scratched over time.
They get cloudy.
They get heated, washed, reheated, washed again… and that’s where a lot of parents start asking questions about microplastics and what might be breaking down over time.
Glass doesn’t do that.
Glass stays glass.
It doesn’t absorb smells.
It doesn’t stain.
It doesn’t slowly degrade from heat or constant washing.
And if you’re already being careful about what goes into your baby’s body, this just feels like one of those “why not?” swaps.
These bottles are made with thick, sturdy glass – not that scary thin stuff – and they still feel totally manageable in your hand. They also use Evenflo’s Balance nipple, which is designed to support a more natural latch, whether you’re breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or doing a mix of both.
Another thing I appreciate: fewer parts, no nonsense.
They’re easy to clean.
They don’t trap milk smells.
And they just feel solid and well thought out.
If you’re shopping for baby bottles anyway and debating plastic vs glass, these are absolutely worth a look. They’re available at Target, which makes them easy to grab or add to a registry.
Not trendy.
Not overcomplicated.
Just a solid, practical choice that makes sense.
And honestly, those are usually the baby items that end up getting used the most.
