Safe, quick, and practical for breastfeeding and pumping moms. Disinfect your breast shields (flanges), accessories, breast milk bottles, nipples, pacifiers, and more in about 3 minutes.
Fast and Effective Sanitization
Medela’s microwave bags are the handy way to sanitize your pumping equipment and breastfeeding accessories quickly and safely. These quick clean micro-steam bags thoroughly disinfects most breast pump accessories, bottles, nipples, pacifiers and cups. Steam cleaning eliminates 99.9% of most common bacteria and germs including staph, e-coli, salmonella, pneumonia, and yeast.
Clean breast pump parts and other feeding accessories in just 3 minutes with these revolutionary bags. Simply place items in the bag, add water, and heat in the microwave. They allow faster cleaning than boiling, and they are more effective than dishwashing.
Reusable and Economical
Each bag can be used up to 20 times and is designed for durability and convenience, whether at home or at work. With 12 bags per box, that’s up to 240 total uses. There’s even a handy panel of numbered boxes on the front of each one so you can keep a record of how many times you’ve used it – a smart idea for busy mums, particularly if you’re breastfeeding and working fulltime.
What Fits Inside
Although they’re small, Quick Clean Micro-Steam bags are surprisingly roomy. One bag can hold a variety of items, including but not limited to:
- One breast shield/connector/valve-membrane assembly, as well as a bottle with cap or teat
- Two breast shields and valve assemblies
- Two 5 oz. breast milk bottles and caps
- Two 8 oz. breast milk bottles and caps
Bag dimensions are 5-1/8″ x 5-13/16″ x 1-5/8″.
Safe Materials and Manufacturing
All Medela breast milk bottles and products that come in contact with breast milk are – and have always been – made without BPA or phthalates. Our Quick Clean Micro-Steam Bags are made with food contact-grade materials and are manufactured according to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations for the peace of mind that moms deserve.
Versatile Storage Solution
These steam bags also double as a great option for neatly organizing and carefully storing breast pump parts and accessories while on the go or during busy days and nights. They can be used for easy organization of parts and accessories while on the go or away from home for added convenience. Keep one in your diaper bag for quick accessibility and enjoy hassle-free, all-in-one cleaning on the go.
Supports CDC Hygiene Recommendations
The CDC recommends daily cleaning and sanitization of your breast pump parts and accessories. Sanitizing is especially important if your baby is less than 3 months old, was born prematurely, or has a weakened immune system due to illness or medical treatment. Use our quick clean Micro-Steam bags to easily and thoroughly disinfect breast pump parts, breast milk bottles, nipples, pacifiers, breast shields, and more in about 3 minutes – using only water and a microwave.
Space-Saving Solution
Forget bulky steam sterilisers or juggling giant pans of boiling water for sanitising, Quick Clean Micro-Steam bags can be folded up for slim, simple storage. The bags are great for travel or for everyday cleaning at work because they take up zero space.
How to Use
Comprehensive instructions for use are printed on the bag itself. First, rinse the items you want to sanitise with cold, clean water, then clean with warm, soapy water before rinsing again. Next add a little water to the bag, along with your parts, and seal. Pop in your microwave and heat according to the instruction manual (a minimum of three minutes). Once done, carefully remove the water and the parts from the bag and dry with a clean cloth. The bag gets much hotter than you think it will and it can burn you if you’re not careful.

What Parents Are Saying
I wish I had purchased these with my first child; they are so easy to use! They are quick, convenient and a wonderful option for sanitizing bottles, pacifiers, breast pump parts and tubing. They are inexpensive, especially considering you can use 1 bag up to 20 times. I will never go back to boiling again!
These are a must have for pumping at work. I can quickly clean my pump parts at the end of the workday, rather than standing over the sink at home for 10-15mins in the evening. I love that you can use them up to 20 times, and that all my Medela parts fit into it at once.
These bags saved my sanity the first couple weeks postpartum. They are truly quick and easy and do work well. The hospital sent us home with a few of these and I was so thankful.
I travel a lot for work and find it a massive challenge to sterilize my breast pump parts as I pump. I used these bags on 3 trips so far and they are awesome! Hotel rooms aren’t the cleanest places, and this is one extra step in keeping the milk good.
I got this in my samples kit from Medela before my baby was born. I love the ease of being able to throw all my pump parts or my bottle parts in the bag to sanitize them quickly and it does less damage than boiling the items.
