Nestle NAN OPTIPRO

Bad batch or bad product – Really bad smell. I returned the can thinking it was a bad can due to storage. 2nd can just as bad. We used Optipro 2 for our first child there was no smell. Baby doesn’t like the new formula hard to get him to drink the bottle, concerned the batch is contaminated. Every time I open the can the pungent smell makes me fell like I am going to… Read more

vomit. I have over 60 nieces and nephews, many who have been on formula and I have never smelt formula this bad. If the smell is not normal nestle needs to recall Optipro 2 formula. I called the customer phone number other customers were given to explain my concern but 2 time they hung up on me.

Great and gentle on the tummy – Started from birth, took a good 9 days for my son to get used to it but he’s been amazing he’s now 3 weeks old and no issues. This is my third child I’m so glad I found one that didn’t aggravate my child from the start. We get 4 hour stretches and 5 hours overnight Show details

Tried all 3, found this best – I tried all 3 Nan formulas for my 0-3 month old. In my view, supreme is best for new borns. With 100% whey it was more "watery" and hence easy to digest. Comfort and opti pro are almost similar, but opti pro has omega and little more whey than Comfort. Comfort is thick and tends to stick to the bottle, I feel Opti pro is just right. I plan to stick to it. Show details

Nan is great and trusted – I have been using Nan with my baby from birth. The company are great and their products are always good quality and really easy to prepare. My baby enjoys the drink and has no side effects or reactions. It is affordable too.

Another great baby product from Nestle – I have always used Nan for both my kids and it never fails to impress. My 18 mo has quickly taken to Optipro and loves the taste, no complaint. It’s easy to make and no side effect/reaction. Show details

what is wrong with it – My baby was fine initially from the switch to stage 2 but then i’ve noticed a really off smell in the recent tins it smells like it’s off i thought it was just me but it’s always clumpy and never mixes well and my daughter has had bad diarrhoea for a week now Show details

The smell – Used to be an ok formula, 2 kids took it. But recently turned to a formula with horrendous fishy smell. Baby not drinking it nicely. Unfortunately will change to another product. Show details

The smell is horrendous – I don’t think my kid has had any kind of reaction to the stage 2 formula other than I think he’s thrown off by the smell because he hasn’t finished a bottle since I changed him over. The smell is absolutely foul, how did that pass to production… it smells like dog food. It’s so bad that im changing formula simply because im unable to feed my son or make a bottle without feeling nauseous from the smell. Show details

Nestle NAN OPTPRO 2 follow-On Formula-1.8KG – Big No I can not believe such nice packed colorfully packaging turn to this horrible....switch from lactogen follow up 2 to this turns to the pain as my daughter can’t stomach at first thought am not preparing right as it’s got lumps/sorrow taste and look guess until I got to the reviews of the brands am shocked. Changed that goes total regrettable Show details

Not a good experience with this formula – My baby was breastfed until 5 months and then migrated her to formula. She took it no problem. At 6 months, I tried her on this formula as we were travelling in Scandinavia and this is all we could get. She took it, reluctantly, and was sick throughout the day and did explosive poos as soon as she drank it. Pretty sure it was diarrhoea. She wasn’t well when drinking this stuff. Smells funky, and she couldn’t tolerate it.

Smells off wasted so much money – smells off like milk has gone bad. I've thrown out 2 quarter to full tins! 1 in Fiji and rushed to shop to buy a diff brand and 1 here. I have a 3rd tin baby is currently using but will be throwing it out also as I can't stand the smell anymore and baby himself smells bad because of it ! Not happy at all. I trusted this brand and only used nan optipro for all 3 of my kids now have to find a different brand to use that smells normal Show details

NAN - never again! – NAN – never again, be it Optipro or Supreme, I won’t waste my money on any NAN formula again! My first daughter (born 2015) loved the then Nan Supreme/Gold. So I offered NAN Optipro 1 (Netherlands) to my second daughter (born 2021) and it made her poo greenish and have rash all over. I then bought NAN Supreme 1 (Germany), and it did not suit her… Read more

either. 2 weeks before I bought an Optipro 2 (France) (she is now 9m) but as soon as I opened the can, I could smell an unpleasant flavour of the formula. No wonder my daughter rejected the bad-tasting formula immediately and refused to drink any milk for 2 days. I always taste the formula myself and noticed NAN formula does not taste milk-like at all. I am going back to Australia or New Zealand made brands which are far better-tasting formulas. The only reason I attempted few NAN formulas to my second daughter is because (1) Nestle is a reputed company and the formulas are made is developed countries, (2) my first daughter loved the formula (obviously different recipe) in 2015. I had to throw all three tins full of unused formula and I don’t want to do this anymore. No offense to the parents whose bubs loved NAN, but for me the experience was horrible. I will stick to AU/NZ made formulas instead.

Little one likes the taste but it makes him constipated – My little one likes the taste of NAN Optipro Stage 3 Drink but it makes him very constipated. We tried half cow's milk and half formula drink to help with constipation situation and that seemed to work alright. Show details

Amazing!! – My 4 week old daughter loves this formula! I had to change to this formula because the formula I originally had her on since birth was giving her reflux, so the doctors recommended this formula and shes so much better and settled on it! It's super easy to prepare as well, I highly recommend this formula! I'll be using this formula from now on,… Read more

definitely worth the money as it doesn't give her reflux like the Karicare formula did, she sleeps so much better as well.

Nan all the way! – Like all Nan products we have tried and continued to use, Nestle NAN OPTIPRO 3 Toddler 1+ Years Milk drink was a winner in our household. My 17 month old really enjoys is and even says nummy when she has a mouthful. Show details

Easy to make, great for my toddler – My toddler, 14 months old loves this drink before bed times. Always helps put her to sleep feeling full and calm. Its easy to scoop out and make for her! Thankyou Show details

Great when you're on the go with no access to a fridge – My child loves this drink, it's something different to the cow's milk she started after 12 months. It's easy to prepare and perfect for when we're having a day out and don't have access to a fridge to store cow's milk. Show details

Good product - breastfed toddler seemed to enjoy – Our child seems to enjoy the drink - a slightly sweet taste to it. My 2 year old has never had formula before and he was fine with it. No side effects or reactions and it was really very easy to prepare. Show details

Baby LOVES it! – When my baby was born he was in special care nursery for quite some time, the nurses had him on Nan Optipro from day dot. He absolutely loves this formula and is thriving. We’ve had no issues whatsoever and bub is happy to take it either room temp or warm. The ratios are super easy to work out: 1 scoop > 30 ml water So perfect for those times… Read more

when you only want to make a small bottle.

Overall, absolutely love this formula and has worked so well for my baby. Will not hesitate to continue using as bub progresses to the other stages.

Smelly product. So disappointed – My first son used this 3 years ago. Daughter using now but it smells so so foul. Put her back onto stage one till I decide what to do. Don’t know why it smells so bad when number 1 is fine. Show details

My daughter enjoys this formula – My daughter had tried a couple different formulas now, she enjoyed drinking this formula and hasn’t noticed the difference between this one and her other formula she normally drinks. I’ve also not seen any reactions or sickness from her using this product. I like the fact majority of the packaging is recyclable and is definitely a plus for the… Read more

product. The only downside and why I didn’t rate this product 5 stars is because of the design of the container. It’s hard to level off the formula and there is no surface on the tin that allows you to level the excess formula from the scoop. Due to this inconvenience it has put me off buying this formula in the future.

Great Toddler Milk – This is extremely easy to prepare, just add water to powder and you’ll have a happy kid. It tastes great as my son wanted seconds. It is quite easy to digest as it didn’t cause any issues such as allergies etc. It contains all the necessary nutrients and vitamins so this is great to use daily. Show details

New recipe is horrendous – Bub was on the old recipe basically from Birth. New recipe every tin smells like dog food. Bub is spewy after feeds. Supremepro is fine with a stupid price tag ofcourse. Show details

Gentle on the stomach – My 16 month old was quite happy drinking this formula with no side effects. It is quite easy to prepare. Packed with nutrition, I believe it is good drink for toddlers to consume as a supplement to a balanced diet. Show details
