This isn't a mixing or heating tool — it's a pre-portioning one, letting you measure out up to four individual feeds of powder into separate compartments before leaving the house, then tip one straight into a bottle with water when needed. It solves a different problem to the two machines: convenience away from the kitchen rather than speed at home.

It pairs naturally with either the Perfect Prep or Formula Pro at home and this dispenser for the changing bag, rather than competing directly with them — most parents who own one of the machines still carry one of these for days out.

What we liked

  • Cheap and genuinely useful for days out
  • Keeps portions pre-measured and separate
  • Compact enough for any changing bag

Where it falls short

  • Doesn't mix or heat anything itself
  • Compartments are small, not suited to bulk batch-prep
  • Twist-lock lids can loosen if bag is knocked around
