Steam sterilization eliminates 99.9% of household germs due to the sanitizing power of steam, without the use of chemical additives. It does not leave any remaining odors or flavors on sterilized items and does not require rinsing. The sterilizer includes three modular configurations to adjust the size to the items being sterilized. Full size mode allows you to sterilize up to 6 bottles of 330 ml; compact mode for 2 330 bottles, 1 breast pump or pacifiers and pacifiers, and the Microwave mode is ideal for sterilization in a microwave oven. There is also a drying function with a duration of 30 minutes and an automatic switch-on function, programmable up to 2 hours in advance. The sterilizer also has a descaling warning. There is no need to constantly monitor the sterilization process because the sterilizer turns off automatically at the end of the cycle. Items remain disinfected for 24 hours if the lid remains closed. The sterilizer is compatible with most bottles, breast pumps and accessories on the market. It takes up little space and the delicate color easily fits into any kitchen.
