Category: Baby > Baby bottle. Updated 2026-10-08. Based on 175 counted first-hand reports from Target shopper reviews, Jan 2019 to Apr 2026.

**Question:** Which baby bottle helps with gas?

**Short answer:** Boon NURSH Bottle has the best record for gas: 12 of 13 parents said their baby was less gassy, though that rests on 13 parents. Evenflo Balance+ Bottle follows at 15 of 17, and Dr. Brown's Options+ Anti-Colic Bottle sits at 22 of 26 with a bigger group behind it. MAM Easy Start Anti-Colic Bottle has the weakest record here at 21 of 27, though parents often mention a problem only when it happens to them.

**What stands out:** Complaints tend to be about leaks, cleaning and flow, not gas. 42% of Dr. Brown's reviews mention leaks and 28% say it is hard to clean or has many parts, while 35% of Philips Avent reviews say the flow is too fast or too slow.

## Ranking (parents who said whether it worked)

| 5 | Philips Avent Natural Response Bottle | 10 of 12 | 83% | yes |

Ranked by the lower bound of a 90% Wilson confidence interval, so a product needs a high share and enough reports to rank high. An Amazon link is shown only when at least 60% say it works.

Boon NURSH Bottle has the best record (12 of 13), followed by Evenflo Balance+ Bottle (15 of 17) and Dr. Brown's Options+ Anti-Colic Bottle (22 of 26). These are parents saying their baby was less gassy, and every baby is different.

**Is Dr. Brown's Options+ Anti-Colic Bottle good for gassy babies?**

Many parents say yes, with 22 of 26 reporting less gas. The catch is cleanup and leaks, since 42% of its reviews mention leaks and 28% say it has too many parts or is hard to clean.

**Do these bottles leak?**

Leaks come up for two of them. 42% of Dr. Brown's Options+ Anti-Colic Bottle reviews and 26% of Boon NURSH Bottle reviews mention leaks, while 22% of Philips Avent Natural Response Bottle reviews praise it for not leaking.

**When should I talk to a pediatrician about a gassy baby?**

Call your pediatrician if your baby seems very uncomfortable, if the gas and fussiness last more than a few days, or if there is a fever. A bottle cannot replace a check-up, and the reviews here are other parents' experiences, not medical advice.
