I had trouble early on with breastfeeding and had to go back to work right away, so I am an exclusively pumping mom. I started with Medela (pump in style), then switched to this pump about 2 months ago. I can not believe how great this pump is, especially for the price. The shields are comfortable, the handle allows me to pump completely handsfree (just need a secure place to rest the bottles), it is very quiet, and I am getting more milk! It does not suck as fast as the Medela, but it doesn’t have to….it has what I would describe as a vibration to it that provides more stimulation and is actually quite comfortable. I have now reached my 6 month goal, but will continue to pump due to the ease, comfort, and results this pump is providing. I can easily get 30 oz’s pumping just 4 times a day! I highly recommend this pump!

I bought this item hoping it would boost my milk production. I could not afford an expensive pump. I tried a manual pump first which did not work well. This pump did get my milk flowing. When you open the package, all the attatchemtns are a bit overwhelming but once it is put together, it is fairly easy to use and move around. This pump is fairly compact and the bag is great. It is very quiet compared to the medela. The T-Bar is great to use because it leaves a free hand; however, it is akward and takes some getting use to. I wish this pump offered more suction power. I have large breasts and have to use the highest power. If there was a stronger power, I think I would get more milk. I think this would work very well if you have smaller more firm breasts.

I have Medela Harmony and its awfull. It costed me smth about $30. i spent 30 mins to pump both breasts. And it was not comfortable to pump. Hands become tired (i needed 2 hands to pump), it was pumping too hard for my nipples so most of the time they became a bit purple. Shield became warp so while you pump milk was leaking out.
THIS PUMP IS GREAT!!! shields are soft. the strength of pumpimg is adjustable from very gentle to a strong-enough level and you feel it not like “fooooooof fooooooof” but just like “foof-foof-foof-foooof foof-foof-foof-foooof” and it really feels as a sucking of a baby!
This pump gets the job done at a great price!! My only complaint is that I prefer the medela bottles over the bottles that come with this pump and of course the bottles aren’t compatible. Also, the breast shields that came with the pump were way too small for my breasts (I’m a 38DD) and I had to call the company for larger ones. They did send them though free of charge which definitley impressed me! Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and saved probably at least $100.

The first thing I noticed about the pump when I received it was how small it is. The motor fits in the palm of the my hand which I love. The first thing I thought was how easy this pump would be to carry with you. The double pump also comes with an adorable brown and blue tote bag in which to carry your pump. It is a stylish, unnoticeable way to transport your pump if you need to take it to work or on a trip.
The pump fits the Breastflow bottles which is another factor I love because I can pump right into the bottle and then just put on the nipples when it is time for him to eat. The less you have to move breastmilk around, the less chance it has to come in contact with bacteria and other things.
When I tried the pump, I found it was super easy to use because it comes with a handle that connects to both parts of the pump so that you can pump both sides but only have to hold the pump with one hand. The pump is relatively quiet when you pump. I still think that others would know you were pumping when you are using this but it is much quieter than other pumps that I have used. The suction and strength of the motor were fantastic – comparable to a higher end pump that I had used.
This pump also has the ability to be battery operated which is wonderful because you can pump anywhere. As long as your batteries are not low (takes AA batteries), it works just as well as being plugged in to electricity.
There are few cons to this pump that I found. 1) You can not purchase larger breast shields for this pump. This can be a little bit of a struggle if you are a larger breasted woman. I wouldn’t let this deter you from this pump though. 2) It is an one person use pump so you can not share it or sell it later. For the price though, I do not see this as a major issue. 3) You can not just pump one side – you have to always pump both sides.
The pros of this pump far out way the cons though. 1) The cost – super affordable compared to many other brands of pumps. 2) Lightweight – I have seen and carried pumps that much heavier than this one. It weighs about 2 pounds, maybe less. 3) Compact – love this! 4) Cute design 5) Discreet way to carry it – I love the tote bag – it is trendy and looks just like a purse.
Overall, I would definitely purchase this pump for an affordable way to pump for my babies. I have used this pump for 7 weeks exclusively so I could write an accurate review. I really do love it and would highly recommend it.
