Testing the Tommee Tippee Ultimate Formula Feeding Kit

If you're looking for a complete, all-in-one solution for bottle feeding, the Tommee Tippee Ultimate Formula Feeding Kit ticks every box. From the very first use, it’s clear this kit has been thoughtfully designed with tired, busy parents in mind. One mum summed it up perfectly: “I would highly recommend this Tommee Tippee Ultimate Formula Feeding Kit to any other Mum because of how comprehensive it is and how easy it is to use.”

Perfect Prep Machine – A Night-Time Lifesaver

The standout hero of the kit is undoubtedly the Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Day & Night Machine. Designed to make feeding times faster and more manageable—especially during night feeds—it delivers bottles at just the right temperature in moments. Parents loved the ease of use, with one saying, “Push a few buttons and you have a bottle ready to feed your baby at the perfect temperature.” Another added, “We couldn’t have been without the prep machine... it’s a godsend in the early days, particularly.”

The thoughtful features, like the ability to measure in millilitres and turn off sound alerts, were a big hit too: “The features of the day and night prep machine are brilliant… it’s made it much easier.” One parent appreciated the quieter function: “I like the fact I can turn the sound off—it means my baby is not anticipating the bottle earlier due to hearing the noise.”

Style wasn’t forgotten either. With its sleek, modern look, parents agreed it blended seamlessly into the kitchen. “Lovely design, very impressed,” one tester shared. It’s compact, presentable and fuss-free—a perfect fit for both home and travel use.

Ultra UV Steriliser – Fast, Effective, and Fuss-Free

The Tommee Tippee Ultra UV 3-in-1 Steriliser also earned high praise for being spacious, simple and reliable. One parent described it as “quick and easy to use, very straightforward and also very easy to clean.” With room for bottles and accessories alike, it’s ideal for busy families who don’t have time to wait around: “You can sterilise your baby’s bottles after washing them in just a few minutes.”

Parents loved the hands-off approach: “I like that I can pop them in and walk away and do something else whilst they are sterilising.” It's a great time-saver that simplifies the often-overwhelming early stages of parenthood.

Bottles, bibs and more – The kit that covers it all

The anti-colic bottles were a welcome addition, helping reduce gas and discomfort for little ones. Whether you’re using the slow-flow teats or opting for the breast-like soothers, the variety of bottle styles makes feeding more adaptable and personalised.

Parents also raved about the Tommee Tippee Milk Feeding Bibs, which help prevent milk rash and keep babies dry. “The bibs included stop baby from getting a rash from milk around their neck,” said one tester. Another added, “They’re super absorbent and probably stopped endless amounts of dribble rash!” These bibs proved especially useful for newborns and babies with tongue tie, soaking up every drop without irritating sensitive skin.

Also included are thoughtful extras like an insulated bottle warming bag—perfect for feeding on the go—and dummies, making this kit not just convenient but incredibly practical too.

Final thoughts

The Tommee Tippee Ultimate Formula Feeding Kit is a brilliant investment for any parent starting their bottle feeding journey. With its smart features, time-saving designs, and high-quality accessories, it removes much of the stress that comes with feeding a new baby. The Perfect Prep machine takes the guesswork out of bottle temperature, while the steriliser ensures cleanliness with minimal effort. Add in a full set of bottles, bibs, dummies, and travel-friendly extras, and you’ve got a kit that genuinely makes life easier. As one reviewer put it, “This is a must-have for all mums across the globe.”
