Customer Reviews for 'Medela Pump in Style Advanced Breast Pump with Shoulder Bag'
Great pump!
I'm an exclusive pumper. My baby won't latch so I've had to pump since the beginning. My baby is now 8 wks old and is getting 100% breastmilk. This is a great pump for everyday use. I pump 5x/day and no problems yet. I use the pump on the lowest setting (anything more and it hurts!) and I still manage to get 50 oz of milk/day (no supplements!). The pump is easy to transport and I bring it with me when I go out or travel. I'll pump in the public nursing/family rooms or in my car. I have never used the battery pack so not sure how long it would last/go if using that.
I bought a hands-free bra (Simple Wishes) and it works great with this pump.
I also love that I can use other bottles to pump into besides the Medela ones (I use Dr. Brown's glass bottles).
The ONE thing I DO NOT like about this pump is that it is really loud. I had rented an Ameda (Egnell) Lact-E Electric Breast Pump (hospital grade) when I was still in the hospital and it was super quiet. The PISA sounds like a barking dog to me; even my husband complains about it. As a result, I put a towel inside the bag and on the outside in front of the motor to muffle the sound whenever I pump. I know some ppl who will pump on airplanes but I can't imagine pumping next to a stranger with the sound of this pump on - though I know someday I will have to!!! That's my only gripe about this pump. Other than that, this is a great pump for everyday use - and esp for exclusive pumpers! Great investment!
A real time saver
I am leaving this review on behalf of my wife. She started off with the Medela Swing Breast Pump which did the job. The only problem was she found it was taking 30-45 minutes to do what she needed and then get back to work. She made the decision to purchase this pump and it has made a huge difference. Pumping now typically takes her 10-15 minutes and she can get on with whatever she needs too. She has also run it on batteries and it really does a great job. (I'd recommend either the Yuasa 4-Pack of AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries (2700mAh) or Powerex AA 2700mAh NiMH Rechargeable Batteries w/holder- 4 Batteries Per Pack) All the included accessories are also of great quality an work with the Dr. Scholls bottles.
Great Pump but not Perfect!
Love how fast it pumps and LOVE that the pieces are dishwasher safe! I also like that most bottles (besides just medela's) work with this pump. I do not like, however, that this is definitely not a hands-free pump and you have to sit there and hold the bottles on each boob the whole time! Also, my pump does not let me do one side only- the suction doesn't work right unless both are being pumped at the same time. I don't know if this is a fault with mine or if it is like this for all the Medelas..?
essential for every BF mom
I've been using this for about 3 months now and have no complaints. The parts are easy to assemble and easy to wash, and I love the little cooler with ice pack that comes with it. Some days the bag feels heavy; other days it doesn't. But when I have to carry a bag full of books and the pump, I can really feel the weight. It fits easily over my shoulder, and the bag is fairly stylish and unobtrusive. It comes with four bottles and tops, and I pump into those bottles and then pour into my Avent bottles. I recently bought the Avent adaptor for the pump and have used it a few times, but I think it's just as easy to use the Medela bottles. I was not happy with the included nipples--they collapse easily when baby tries to feed. With my first child, I had an Avent Isis hand pump, and I would recommend that you buy this electric pump instead--worth every penny. The pumping action is adjustable along a dial, and you can press the let-down button if you want it to return to the quicker pumping action. (It begins with a 2-minute let down, with quick suction, then shifts to regular pump, about half the speed.)
I am going back to work full time and can't imagine what I would do without it, but I've found even during my maternity leave it's been fabulous to have, for times when I want to go out, or for those mornings when baby only feeds on one side and I'm very full.
Think of the money you would spend on formula, and suddenly this pump doesn't seem so pricey after all. Well worth it for the health benefits to mom and child.
Powerful suction - great for low milk supply! Why did I bother with others?
I wasted time and money on other breast pumps! I bought a manual pump (Lanoish), worked fine, but too time consuming and didn't pump much milk for me. Then family member bought me the Medela Swing, worked better than the manual pump, but still took forever. I have love milk production. I was getting so frustrated because I wanted to provide my baby with breast milk. I was going to rent the hospital pump, but then read reviews for Medela Pump in Style and thought I'd try it first. After a month of frustration with single pump, I was thrilled to pump "double" with the Pump in Style! It would take me almost a full day to just pump 2ozs with the Swing. When I tried the "Pump in Style" i got 3oz in 10 minutes!!!! I was so thrilled. It's very comfortable. I did NOT think that it was heavy at all. Great suction, feels comfortable. So happy when I received it! Now my little girl can have breast milk!
