5.0 out of 5 starsLove hate relationship
Reviewed in Canada on April 14, 2024
I received this pump from my sister (second hand) after her trying to convince me that manual pumping is more convenient for my situation (baby constantly wanting to be in my arms) and wow was she right.
I loved that I could stop at any second and continue as soon as I had a few more minutes. This pump is perfect, and worked even better than my super expensive hands free pump… which was a very pleasant surprise.
Till the day I broke a part… it was absolutely my mistake and without hesitation, not even looking at the price I HAD to buy a new one since the part I broke wasn’t sold separately.
I was even more pleased when I received it and saw all the gadgets that came with it.
The bottom part that holds the pump (stopping it from tipping over) is genius, the different nipple size option, the extra parts… just so happy.
Till… 2 months later, after thinking I was just losing milk supply, I find out by chance that my new pump was defective. Which honestly, had I known all that time could have seriously spared me all the stress which I totaly did not need. The pump would pump just not as much as I could have been pumping… I discovered this the other day because i didn’t have time to fully clean my pump and decided to use my old one and just change the part I broke. I almost cried when I saw how much milk was coming out…. It’s been 3 days now that I’m still using my old pump with the new part and it has changed my days/life/well being, relationship with my partner drastically. Hence my love hate relationship title…
Basically, I love this pump but I think i got super unlucky to get a defective one… I do recommend it just be careful if the milk supply is low… I don’t know if this has been a common thing but if it’s a good one, it works.
