No but mothercare have a similar device which I've tried to buy online but out of stock. Tried the stores but they dont seem to have them.

I want one, they look really good!

Ive got one on its way to me from Amazon so I will give you a mini review in a few days! :-)

Cool looking forward to the review! I wonder if the spout gets clogged? I was so fed up of scoop clog I then moved to using TT pots but the tip of the pot also clogs up!

I know what you mean nemo. We have been using mainly cartons as we seem to spend so much time faffing about making up a feed with powder and then getting it wrong and having to throw the feed away coz we lost count of scoops or the scoop has clogged. We have tried the tt pots aswell which as you say also clog

. Im hoping that the clevascoop works for us.

We got this yesterday and used it for last nights bottles - works like a dream! We're on full bottles nowadays and measuring out 8 scoops for 6 bottles takes AGES, not to mention the scoop getting clogged up! This took hardly any time at all, I think it worked really well - definitely a good buy

I wouldn't use anything like that personally because the scoop size of the different brands varies, so you can't guarantee you are putting the correct amount of powder in xx

It's measured for all the major brands of milk. Just test it with water first if you're worried. We put in 8 scoops of water using the normal scoop into a jug and measured it against using this and it was the same

What bigbetty is saying is that all the brands have been tested in a recent study; and due to product density the amount that a 'scoop' from any given brand actually makes can differ dramatically (a 900g tin can make up to a litre more milk with some brands due to this) and also the amount the scoops hold vary dramatically as well-the manufacturers have all designed their scoops to hold exactly 1oz of their formula but it cannot be guaranteed if you use any other type of scoop. So testing it with water won't work I'm afraid. As far as I know none of the major formula manufacturers have given any approval to this product xx

and what happens when the manufacturer changes their scoop size, like Hipp has just done? Jx
