Product Reviews of Good Start Gentle Plus Formula, Powder, 25.7-Ounce Cans (Pack of 6)
Product Review: Great as a supplement
Summary: 5 Stars
When our daughter started needing more than I could supply in breastmilk, we tried all the other formulas. The smell of them made me gag. My sister recommended Good Start. It doesn't stink and baby seems to love it.Product Review: Great formula
Summary: 5 Stars
I was breastfeeding my daughter until she was 3.5 months old and then introduced formula. I used the Good Start and she didn't mind the difference at all - so much for my breastmilk being special.
It is more expensive on Amazon than in my local supermarket (+ $2) but a good alternative when the supermarket is out of stock. And the delivery is very convenient. I am an Amazon prime customer so no delivery fee.
Product Review: Great formula, but better prices elsewhere

All 3 of my boys, including my now 5 month old, have been on this formula. It's a great formula, but the price, at $149, almost $150, is not great. I just ordered it from BabiesRUs.com, for $136.75 - and a free shipping offer too. That's over $2 less for each container - not bad.Product Review: Great formula, good price

I tried this formula after switching from Similac. My son was first started on Similac Advance at the hospital, and tolerated it well until week 2 when he became so constipated we had to give him a suppository per his pediatrician. We tried Enfamil Gentlease, and he seemed to hate it right from the start, then after remembering my cousin rave about this formula with her daughter, we tried the Good start. I wish I had started him off with this from the beginning. He immediately drank it down, unlike the Gentlease which he wouldn't even take more then a few sucks of. He tolerated it so well, and the constipation was gone. He was still gassy a bit, as all babies seem to be, but nothing excessive like before. For a few weeks he was still a bit fussy when having a bowel movement, but again, it was such a drastic improvement from where we had been prior. As time went by his stools became easier to pass, and now there is no fussing at all. The preparation is easy. You simply add the powder to water and shake. There had been different directions on some older cans with boiling water then adding the powder, but that has since been replaced with the simple, add powder to water and shke version. THere are far fewer bubbles after shaking then the other formula's I have tried (Similac, Enfamil) and the clumping is minimal. Simply take a spoon etc.. to break up clumps. The smell is tolerable too, and is much better then the other formula's I have smelled. The price is good as well. Babies r us seems to have the cheapest price at around $20 a can, but other stores like Kmart, Target etc... seem to come in around $23 a can and drug stores (not recommended) come in highest at $25-26 a can. I have actually found grocery stores to be cheaper then independent drug stores for the formula, but by the far babies r us has the cheapest price.Product Review: Great product

We just had our 5th child in March and have used this product with all of our children. We tried other formulas with our older kids but they would become constipated and have stomach cramps. This formula was easy for them to digest and they turned into much happier babies. I also noticed that it does not smell as strong or stain clothes as easily as some of the other brands. I would encourage everyone to just start with this formula and save yourself the headache/time/money finding the "right one" for your baby.
