Keep Your Baby's Formula Germ-Free with NeoTop {a review}

NeoTop - it sounds a little futuristic, doesn't it? Well, it does revolutionize baby formula! I was given the chance to review one of their cool baby formula dispensers and think the idea behind it is genius.

Let me set the scene for you: It's 2 am, the baby is crying, and you're in the kitchen making a bottle. You put one scoop of formula into the bottle, but the scoop gets a little bit wet from the water that was on the edge of the bottle. Not thinking about it, you stick that scoop back into the formula container for the second scoop-full, and that water drips into the dry formula.  Bet you didn't know that those little clumps made from the water dripping in were contaminating the entire container of formula.

You see, powdered formula is not sterile. You should always follow formula preparation safety when making bottles for baby, and this includes keeping the scoop separate from the formula and making sure it is completely dry between scoops. Water dripping into the powdered formula inadvertently makes prepared formula, which is only good for two hours at room temperature.

But with NeoTop, you don't have to worry about that anymore. NeoTop is an innovative formula dispenser that gets rid of the need for measuring or scooping. It keeps the formula dry and germ-free and makes making a bottle even easier.

The NeoTop was developed by a neonatologist and is designed to help prevent bacteria from getting into your baby's formula. It holds up to a whole canister of formula, and to use it, you just tilt it upside down, twist the bottom and a perfectly portioned 2 ounce serving is in the top. Just open the lid and dump it in the bottle, and you’re done. No cross contamination, no scoops, no fuss. It's so easy!

I tried it out just to see (don't currently have a baby to practice with) and lemme tell ya: it was much easier than fussing with a scoop to make sure your formula amount was exactly level, and I didn't accidently pour any formula powder on the counter. You know what I'm talking about. Somehow that powder always ends up on the counter no matter how careful you are, and is so sticky wen you're trying to clean it up with a wet sponge. I always hated that.

Even moms who just supplement with formula should try one of these, as it's a great way to store formula long term for no risk of germs.

Some of NeoTop's awesome features:

• Dishwasher safe and BPA Free
• 80% more effective at preventing germs than other formula storage dispensers
• Designed and manufactured in the USA
• Easy to use
