It seems like a cool toy to me. But I love my keurig. I'm pretty jealous of all the convenience gadgets new parents get tbh
Isabelle brought up a good point though about if you are able to sanitize all parts of the machine. A valid concern(although I would imagine no manufacturer would put such a product on the market like that and not have thought of that aspect).
I'm always making notes of the toys and baby stuff I see at work. I already know that if I have a baby...I'm spending money on this thing....
If my baby ends up not liking it...I'll just donate it to the NICU at work. Those things are miracle workers for the babies in the NICU that are very irritable cause of drug withdrawals.

Breast milk is the way to go.
Not all women can breast feed. My wife had an emergency C-section and was never able to, though we had planned for it and even bought a pump and supplies.

Premeasured water in bottle plus the partitioned container for like four bucks where you can load up the scoops. Cheap and easy.

As much as I grew tired of making formula bottles, this thing seems completely useless.
You're basically to lazy to scoop a few scoops of powder into a bottle with water in it and shake?

If you search and read reviews, a lot of people had the same issue. They had to use another setting. I was considering getting one with my last baby but some people reported mold growing in the tubing so that made my decision for me. 
At night we just premeasured powder into the bottles and water in those breastmilk jars and then mixed as needed. Easy peasy.
I loved that formula pitcher when my first was in daycare and we had to mix up a day's worth of bottles at a time. That was my DH's job at night.

The mommaroo worked well for our daughter when she was in nicu but did not take to it once home.

Hands down the best baby related item I own
That's depressing, but I bet you actually don't believe that. I'll take a good stroller or better car seat over this toy. It's amazing our parents found a way to raise us without all the crap that is "must have" on these registry guides now.

Its very rare I agree with anything you post, but spot on here.

I bought one for my wife about six months ago. She just opened it the other day and still hasn't used it. My wife loves not using shite I buy her.

I would fill up about 5 bottles with water each night and sit them on the counter. The next day, or middle of the night, put the right amount of scoops in, screw the lid on, shake and feed to my child. No need for a machine to mix it. Room temp is fine, it doesn't need to be warm.
This. Exactly what we did. Easy. No extra contraption to clean- God knows we already had enough crap to clean. I've seen Keurig tanks get pretty nasty, this thing would be the same.

No man. I put two ounces of powder in a bottle, get tap water out of the faucet to the right temp, then add 4 oz of water. Shake. Perfect every time.
Posted on 6/7/16 at 9:15 pm to LSUMJ
Yes. We have one. Use the hell out of it. You need to clean it. Take the piece off where the powder and water mix then look under neath there. If part of the orange circle is clogged, it makes the bottles too watery. You have to clean that spot daily. Just do it when y'all clean bottles. It's awesome, but requires daily cleaning to work correctly.

$180 to have to perform daily cleanings? Where do I sign up?

I recommend it. I thought it was not putting enough powder in the bottle because it was clearer but I did some tests that confirmed that it had the proper amount. The breeza mixes it better so it is less cloudy.
My kid got fat as hell (99 percentile at 9 months) on that thing. He's normal size now tho.

Could you do it the other way too - pre-measure the powder in dry bottles and just add room temp water? Seems like that might be easier to measure at 2 AM. We only supplemented formula at the very end of the first year with my first born; and by that point (10 months or so) we were way past midnight feedings.
Well the water is already measured this way. Some 4, 6, and 8 oz bottle. Either 2, 3, or 4 scoops of powder. Seemed pretty quick to just scoop and shake. Takes longer to measure the water to the line on the bottle than to scoop.

Sorry about that LSUMJ...seriously. If it does not come in then you don't have a lot of options. Good luck and good for you for checking out your options to help your child and wife!

Hey buddy,
This problem occurred with us as well. The problem is at the point where the powder comes out. You need to lift the powder reservoir off the machine and clean the mouth where it falls out on a daily basis. It can build up and decrease the amount of powder giving you a watered down formula.
You are welcome.

You sign at the bottom line. If you buy powder instead of pre-mixed formula because of this item, it pays for itself in a sense.
We used ready to feed for my first two. My third took to formula that only comes in powder. Wife wanted to try others that were available in ready to feed. Instead we paid 120 for one one Amazon. I personally have come out cheaper, as using powder wasn't going to happen. There are a multitude of things to waste money on for babies. This one has a use for me.
Sorry you can't see beyond the negatives to understand it's possible to be a positive for some in different situations. Carry on pontificating about an item you have never owned.
