Baboodle Launches the Bebello Washer

The Only Baby Bottle Washer, Steriliser & Dryer with an Eight Bottle Capacity

15 April, 2024 -- Baboodle, the UK’s first baby equipment subscription service, is delighted to announce the exclusive launch of the Bebello Washer – the only baby bottle washer, steriliser and dryer with an eight-bottle capacity on the market – available for planet-friendly rental at www.baboodle.co.uk, from just £1.45 a day* 

The compact and aesthetically pleasing kitchen-top machine offers time-poor and exhausted parents a lifeline, saving up to an hour of their precious time each day - equating to 182 hours over 6 months - so they can spend more time with their new baby (or grab a quick nap as their little one sleeps!). Busy breast pumping mums can also enjoy the time-saving benefits of the Bebello Washer, as the cleverly-designed machine fits breast pump parts too! With a quick and convenient wash cycle of just 19 minutes, the Bebello Washer ensures parents are always one step ahead of the demanding baby feeding schedule with all bottle and pump parts ready when they need them!

The Bebello Washer eliminates the need to hand wash baby bottles and pumping parts, reducing energy and water usage by up to 78% (while decluttering the kitchen of unnecessary bottle washing paraphernalia!). Naturally clean and sterile, the Bebello Washer’s detergent is made with planet-friendly ingredients, with the added benefit of 99.99% sterilisation thanks to natural steam.

Baboodle is the UK’s first baby equipment rental platform, offering parents access to premium baby products at a fraction of the cost of buying them new. Baboodle is the ideal destination for eco-conscious parents who want to lessen landfill waste, declutter their homes and save money - on average Baboodle customers will rent £3,400 worth of short-term use equipment for just £66 a month in the first year - that’s a saving of over 75%!

With Baboodle, parents can bundle all the products they need to support their feeding, sleeping and transport needs, with breast pumps, highchairs, cribs, travel cots, pushchairs, carriers and so much more, available for a one-off delivery fee of £7.95 with free returns. Baboodle partner exclusively with premium parenting brands to ensure reliability for their customers – trusted household names include BabyBjörn, DockATot, Thule, Stokke, Spectra, SNOO, Bugaboo and Chicco.

Baboodle’s rental model has been designed with flexibility in mind, with a variety of subscription options typically ranging from 1, 2 or 3 months, with items such as strollers available for as little as two weeks. Parents can plan ahead and pre-book items for their little one’s arrival date, with everything delivered and collected by Baboodle for a seamless and convenient service. All subscriptions can be cancelled early should a parent decide they no longer need an item, and the rental price includes cleaning and maintenance, ensuring families receive products that are as good as new, offering extra peace of mind.

The Bebello Washer is the brainchild of inventor Andrew Carr, who spent six years at Elvie and was the creator of the revolutionary Elvie Pump - the world’s first silent wearable breast pump. Andrew’s designs have won over 50 international design awards, been on the cover of Time magazine and can be found in design museums in the UK, the US and Germany.

Andrew is driven by a passion for sustainability, which all began with him leading innovation projects and founding the Sustainability Team at Elvie. Andrew says, “I truly believe a circular approach to the baby products industry can make a significant impact on our planet’s future. This starts with using premium parts and materials which deliver higher performance and better reliability for parents, effectively disrupting the existing short-sighted and throw-away culture which is so prevalent in the

manufacturing industry. The downside is the end-product is more expensive to make and sell, which is why we are delighted to launch with Baboodle’s unique subscription service - parents can now have access to a top-tier product that makes life as a new parent so much easier, at a fraction of the cost of buying it new.”

Baboodle co-founder Katie Hanton-Parr, says: “We are delighted to be exclusively launching the Bebello Washer on Baboodle. We started Baboodle with the mission of giving UK parents access to premium products at affordable prices, and tackling the short-term nature of the baby industry. Andrew has created a product that couldn’t align with our company’s values more.

Given Andrew’s experience developing game changing products, it’s no surprise that the Bebello Washer has such a premium feel to it. Having lived through the bottle washing days myself, the Bebello Washer is solving such an important pain point for parents, and I’ve no doubt it will become a must-have product for new parents in homes across the UK.”

Bebello's mission is to make incredible time-saving products for new parents, that don’t cost the earth. Our products are designed for re-use and our business model is inherently ‘circular’. This dramatically reduces waste across the supply chain and delivers a dramatically lower carbon footprint than companies who operate on the old-fashioned ‘take-make-waste’ or ‘linear economy’ approach, which has put us in the middle of a climate crisis. Bebello is on a journey and we would love you to be part of the community.

*Based on 6 months rental at £45pm. Further rental options include £65 for one month, or £55pm on a 3-month rental agreement plan.
