NUBY Formula Dispenser


One of the products we receive the most questions on is the NUBY Formula Dispenser. Well, there is actually just one question. :-)

HOW MANY SCOOPS OF FORMULA FIT IN EACH SECTION OF THE DISPENSER?

So we called our Mommy Brigade and asked them to send us whatever formula scoops they have on hand. We got 4 different ones. We found that most brands use the same scoop across all formulas in their range or at the most, they have 2 different ones -- one for infant formulas and another one for toddler/preschooler formulas.

In the interest of full disclosure, we tried the scoops out using Coffeemate. It had pretty much the same texture as our Pediasure and we didn't want to use our kids' formula for hygienic reasons.

We filled 1 section with 4 scoops, another section with 5 scoops. Although 4 scoops fit more "comfortably", you can certainly pack in 5 scoops if your child drinks 10 oz. or more each time.

PEDIASURE / GAINPLUS ADVANCE(1 scoop : 2 oz.)

ENFAKID (1 scoop : 2 oz.)

GAIN SCHOOL ADVANCE (1 scoop : 2 oz.)

NAN HW (1 scoop : 1 oz.)
This is an infant formula so it came with a smaller scoop. 8 scoops fit in one section with room to spare! Not that your infant will take 8 oz. in one go. :-)

We also went ahead and tried the NUBY Natural Touch Formula Dispenser. (A better option for infant formula.)


This single-serve dispenser is included in both the 150mL Natural Touch Silicone Feeding Bottle (right)


...as well as the 150mL Natural Touch Softflex Feeding bottles.


These are also sold in 3-packs.


The Natural Touch formula dispensers fit right inside the bottle. So when you're out and about, you just have to pull out the dispenser, fill your bottle with water, mix the formula in and shake/swirl/stir!

If your baby or child's formula uses one of the scoops featured above, please do comment below and share the info with other parents! :-)
