The small plastic one (BPA free) that I have is easy to use and clean. Plus, it's portable. So, you can easily take it with you on vacation or trips.

Y'all are going to have so much fun making baby food!

Edit: I breastfed my son until he weaned himself at about 18 months. I gave him vitamins/minerals as prescribed by his pediatrician. He only drank breast milk (and filtered water after age one) and then only filtered water, organic non-sweetened soy milk and whole organic cow's milk after weaning. He does not drink any juice or juice drinks at the direction of his doctor. The reason is too much concentrated sugar in juice and juice drinks. He eats whole (organic) fruits instead. I did mash and mill the fruit when he was younger. Of course, he takes his tablets that have vitamins and minerals with iron.
