Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro - An Honest AF Review

Written By Mary Kate Miller

When Dante wrote about the circles of hell, he left out bottle washing. But if he took another pass at the manuscript, the modern process of bottle washing for newborns would certainly be listed among Satan’s most damning punishments. It’s not just the near-constant washing (though there is that, too). The drying and sanitizing of a million little parts make you feel like you’ve endeavored to build a Lego set more advanced than your skill level. 

Enter the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro. This nifty contraption—introduced in 2023 and still available in limited enough quantities that you have to preorder it—promises to wash, dry, and sanitize all in one go. So, does it live up to the hype? 

Why You Can Trust This Review

I bought this sh*t with my own money.

Pros of the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer

  • It washes and sanitizes in the same cycle. Loading it is easy. The wash cycle is fast. There is no greater luxury than pressing a button and walking away from dirty bottles. 

  • Kills 99.9% of germs.

  • No plumbing is required. This baby can sit on your counter. You fill and empty it like a Keurig (or a Nespresso, if you fancy). 

  • It has little wheels on the bottom that allow you to easily swivel the bottle washer to fill and empty the clean/dirty water containers in the back. 

  • Uses less water than hand-washing. According to Baby Brezza, the Bottle Washer Pro uses 50% less water than hand-washing the bottles. 

Cons of the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer

  • It’s pretty big. With dimensions of 81”L x 16”H x 8”W, it takes up a sizeable chunk of kitchen counter space. 

  • The dry feature is meh. We usually just move everything to a drying rack or remove the lid and let the clean parts air dry on the Bottle Washer Pro racks. 

  • They tell you to use distilled water (it takes about a gallon per cycle). This was a no for us. We decided to use filtered water and descale the machine more often. A few months in and so far, this strategy has worked for us. 

How the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro Works

Design: The Bottle Washer Pro features 2 levels—one for larger parts and a top rack for smaller parts/lids. You can use it to clean and sterilize bottle parts, pump parts, and sippy cups. It features 6 cleaning modes with different combinations of the “wash,” “sterilize,” and “dry” features. More than likely, though, you’ll settle on one mode you use the most often.

Capacity: The Bottle Washer Pro fits 4 bottles per cycle. Or 4 sets of pump parts. This was initially my biggest con because it’s a small amount (especially compared to other bottle sterilizers). In practice, I have found this is the perfect capacity for a breastfed baby. I generally run the Bottle Washer Pro once daily, which covers all the pump parts/bottles I’ve dirtied. If you’re formula feeding/ primarily pumping/bottle feeding, the Bottle Washer Pro may not meet your needs.

Speed: This bad boy runs through the Wash/Sterilize/Dry Cycle in 90 minutes. That’s hella fast, IMO. Plus, you don’t have to sacrifice any dishwasher space to make it happen. 

Detergent: The Bottle Washer Pro uses proprietary dishwashing detergent tablets that you must buy from Baby Brezza. I thought I was going to be furious about this, but it’s actually fine. The tablets cost $19.99 for 120 tablets ($0.17/wash cycle), and the Bottle Washer Pro comes with a pack of 60 tablets. 

Tips for Using Your Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro

  • Where you keep it matters: Our Bottle Washer Pro is right next to the sink, making it easy to fill and dump the water. If I had to walk across the kitchen to fill and empty water reservoirs, my annoyance level would be much higher. 

  • Keep a backup drying option: Whether it’s a drying rack or dishtowel, you will need something.

What the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro Costs

$299.99 retail. Currently, a handful are available on resale markets–all for above retail. I would wait and pay the $299.99 for it. If you find it on Facebook Marketplace or OfferUp for less than that, buy it. You’ve found a steal.

Ideal for One-Parent Bottle-Washing Houses

The Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro is especially clutch if you’re in a single-parent household or if the bulk of bottle-washing labor is falling on one parent. 

My husband works 60-80 hour weeks, which means that once he returned to work, the bottle washing fell to me, me, and also me. It’s a recipe for quickly turning me into a perpetuation of generational cycles (where the wife/mom is stuck at home cleaning), which is decidedly not the vibe.

TL;DR– Is the Baby Brezza Bottle Washer Pro Worth the Money?

  • What I say: Hell yes. The Baby Brezza Bottle washer is the most important device in my kitchen, next to my coffee maker.

  • What my frugal husband says: It doesn’t dry great, so you have to either hand-dry items or move them to a drying rack.

Caveats–What to Know About the Reviewer

I’m not mad about spending a stupid amount of money if it makes my life easier.
