Baby Bottles & Sippy Cups: Materials, Testing & Safety

Comotomo Gen 2 Baby Bottle, 5 oz

Fluid path: Silicone + PPSU + PP$

Quick verdict

Verdict
Trade-offs
Evidence
Limited

A soft silicone-body bottle with a wide neck, but BASF says its ring is PPSU, the Gen 2 cap and nipple materials are not stated, and the independent screens tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle.

The PPSU ring comes from a BASF news release and not from Comotomo’s US page, the Gen 2 cap and nipple materials are not stated, and the independent screens tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle. Older-generation facts are not applied to Gen 2. See version details.

Product identity on record: BB2_150G (Green) and BB2_150Y (Yellow); 2-count BB2_150TG and BB2_150TY. Check the current product and version.

Caution
  • BASF says the ring is PPSU; Comotomo’s US page does not state the ring, cap or nipple materials
  • The independent screens tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle, and generic silicone studies did not test this bottle
Good
  • A soft silicone body avoids a rigid polypropylene body
  • Wide neck and a short component list
  • States that boiling, sterilizers and the dishwasher top rack are all fine

What we could not verify

  • The Gen 2 cap and nipple materials, and whether Comotomo’s own materials list confirms the PPSU ring
  • Exact-product siloxane or particle data
  • Independent tests of Gen 2, since the tests found tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle
  • The PPSU ring comes from a BASF news release and not from Comotomo’s US page, the Gen 2 cap and nipple materials are not stated, and the independent screens tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle. Older-generation facts are not applied to Gen 2.
Why we reached this verdict

Comotomo describes a food-grade silicone body with built-in dual vents and a wide neck it says needs no brush to clean. It states the bottle is safe in the top rack of a dishwasher, in sterilizers, in boiling water and in the microwave. The CDC says never to microwave infant formula, so treat the microwave line as a product-care claim and not as advice for warming a feed.

A silicone bottle is not a silicone system. BASF's June 2026 news release says Comotomo's next-generation bottle uses an over-molded ring of BASF Ultrason P 2010 polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) on the silicone body, but Comotomo's own US page does not state the ring, cap or nipple materials. An earlier Natural Feel bottle's retailer listing names a polypropylene cap and outer ring, and we do not apply that to Gen 2. The independent results we found, from Consumer Reports and an XRF screen, tested that earlier Natural Feel bottle, so none applies to this one. Generic studies reported siloxane migration from some silicone food-contact materials and particle release from tested silicone bottles; none tested this bottle. The manufacturer's page listed it as sold out when we checked.

What the evidence shows

  • The Best Baby Bottles (Comotomo entry) BabyGearLab, 2025-04

    BabyGearLab scored the Comotomo silicone bottle (5 oz and 8 oz) 84 of 100, ranked 1 of 14 bottles, noting a silicone body and nipple, wide mouth and vented nipple. The page does not say whether the tested bottle is Natural Feel or Gen 2. It is a performance and eco-health score, not a chemical analysis; the date is the page update date.

Verdict: Trade-offs.

Comotomo describes a food-grade silicone body with built-in dual vents and a wide neck it says needs no brush to clean. It states the bottle is safe in the top rack of a dishwasher, in sterilizers, in boiling water and in the microwave.

Verification required

The PPSU ring comes from a BASF news release and not from Comotomo’s US page, the Gen 2 cap and nipple materials are not stated, and the independent screens tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle. Older-generation facts are not applied to Gen 2.

  • Construction verification required.
  • Exact-product laboratory testing: none found, so testing verification is required.
  • The exact model or generation needs to be confirmed before you buy.

Temperature limitNot stated in the sources reviewed

Comotomo states the bottle is safe in the top rack of a dishwasher, in sterilizers, in boiling water and in the microwave. The CDC says never to microwave infant formula, so the microwave statement is a product-care claim and not advice for heating a feed.

Formula preparation: The CDC says very hot water, about 158°F / 70°C, is needed to kill germs when a baby is younger than 2 months, was born prematurely or has a weakened immune system. Standard preparation otherwise follows the formula maker's instructions. Never use a microwave, and bottles must be clean and sanitized. Pathogen control for higher-risk infants takes priority over any concern about particle release, so this page never suggests cooler water for those babies.

Cleanability

Parts (as listed)4
Parts that touch the liquidNot stated in the sources reviewed
Fully takes apartNot stated in the sources reviewed
Every wet surface visibleNot stated in the sources reviewed
Hidden wet cavityNot stated in the sources reviewed
Narrow vent, valve or straw passageNot stated in the sources reviewed
Special brush neededNo
Can dry completelyNot stated in the sources reviewed
Replacement parts soldNot stated in the sources reviewed

Four components are listed: cap, ring, nipple and bottle. Comotomo says the wide neck allows 'brush-less cleaning' and recommends replacing the bottle every 6 months. The dual vents are built into the body.

We show the facts and not a score. A CPSC recall in 2016 tied mold to an opaque, removable valve that held moisture, so hidden or narrow wet passages are worth checking on any cup.

What was tested, and what is only a claim

Independent testing of this exact product

None found as of September 30, 2026. That is missing evidence, not a finding against the product. Where a laboratory report is published, we will show the lab, method, batch, analyte, result, unit and detection limits, and we will never write a non-detect as zero.

Tests of an earlier version (not this product)

These results are for a different version of this brand's bottle. We show them so you can see what exists, and we do not apply them to this product.

  • Comotomo Natural Feel silicone bottle (earlier version): BPA, lead and phthalates: None detected. Consumer Reports (published August 25, 2023, updated October 8, 2025); A small sample scraped or cut from the bottle and analyzed. Consumer Reports tested the “Comotomo Natural Feel” silicone bottle, the earlier version, not the Gen 2 bottle. Detection limits and the laboratory’s name were not published. Not detected is not the same as absent.
  • Comotomo Natural Feel silicone bottle (earlier version): Lead: No detectable lead. DetectLead (Eric Ritter), XRF screening for Mamavation (published March 13, 2024); Handheld XRF surface screening. The article tested the “Comotomo Natural Feel” silicone bottle, the earlier version, not the Gen 2 bottle. Detection limits are not reported.

What the manufacturer states

  • BPA, PVC, phthalates: 'Free from chemicals such as BPA, PVC, and Phthalates.' Manufacturer disclosure Comotomo

Background evidence about the materials (not this product)

These studies tested generic products, not this exact one. They show what is possible, and they don't show that this product releases anything or causes harm.

  • Silicone: Silicone is practical and often preferred for nipples and soft interfaces. Findings on generic silicone are background and do not establish exposure or harm from any one product. Evidence for silicone

Recalls and legal history

No recall of this exact product was located in the sources reviewed. A recall elsewhere in the category does not apply to it.

We searched the CPSC recall database by brand on September 30, 2026. For Comotomo: No recall found. CPSC recall service

What we still don't know

  • The Gen 2 cap and nipple materials, and whether Comotomo’s own materials list confirms the PPSU ring
  • Exact-product siloxane or particle data
  • Independent tests of Gen 2, since the tests found tested the earlier Natural Feel bottle

What would change our verdict

  • A full Gen 2 component-material list
  • An independent laboratory report for this bottle
  • A recall

Independent study Published April 16, 2026. Accessed September 30, 2026. Tested migration of 35 siloxanes from 30 silicone food-contact products into food simulants under worst-case conditions and modelled exposure. Cyclic siloxanes exceeded proposed limits in several samples, particularly for children; D4 and D5 showed negligible risk while D3 raised potential concern, and 14 low-molecular-weight siloxanes (including D6 and L12) exceeded the threshold of toxicological concern across all age groups in the modelled scenarios. The products were silicone food-contact items sold in China, not the products on this page, and the exposure figures are modelled. Abstract read through Crossref.
