My own presonal experience was not good.  I tried this bottle when she
was 3 mos old and would not take a bottle at all when I needed to return
to work for one final week.  She tried to latch onto it several times,
but it was so soft that it just collapsed and whe could not maintain any
suction.  We also found it very difficult to screw the bottom on
properly so that it did not leak like crazy.  I will not recommed them,
because of my personal experience.  I use the bottle filled with sand as
a demo in my classes since it is a pretty good model.  :-)

The manufacturer will send a free sample to any lactation prefessional
who requests it.  Perhaps others will have a more positive experience
than I did.
