**Question:** Which bottle warmer heats a bottle fast?

**Short answer:** Munchkin Precision Digital Bottle Warmer has the best record for fast warming: 13 of 16 reviewers said it heated a bottle quickly, though that is a smaller group and 20% of its reviews say it overheats. Baby's Brew Bottle Warmer comes next at 8 of 13, while the other three warmers were called slow far more often than fast. Dr. Brown's Deluxe Bottle Warmer and Sterilizer has the weakest record here at 1 of 8, and Philips Avent Fast Bottle Warmer, the warmer most reviewers weighed in on, managed 7 of 36.

**What stands out:** Slow is the common complaint: 72% of Philips Avent reviews and 54% of Kiinde reviews call the warmer slow. Parents often write when something goes wrong, so complaint shares run high.
