Pros

Parents say they love this product because it is perfect for catching letdowns from the other boob when pumping or feeding. Some were even able to build up a stash of breastmilk for the freezer using the Haakaa. 

Cons

Some mums said the Haakaa took a little getting used to, but once they did, it was a gamechanger, and they would still recommend this product to other parents.

“I recommend practising before or after a feed, so you’re not trying to do two things at once!” said one mum. 

Example review

“The Haakaa is hands down the best breastmilk saving device ever. Just pop it on with suction to soften the rock hard breasts before feeding, or onto the other breast as you feed. You will have heard stories of women being able to gather 50+mL as they breastfeed, the stories are true! We use ours multiple times every day, highly recommended purchase and it’s so so cheap!”

Pros

Mums said Tommee Tippee Made for Me Silicone Breast Pump was great for catching the letdown on the other side. They also love how compact it is, so you can pop it in your bag and use it anywhere. The suction cup on the bottom was also a plus. 

Cons

Some parents had some trouble keeping “the suction on”, and a couple of reviewers had trouble with their milk leaking.

Example review

“A must buy!! I cannot believe how much let down I collect just by using this! This passive suction pump is gentle and easy to use either when pumping or feeding on the other side! Why not use it to catch that precious letdown that would otherwise be absorbed into your bra or breast pad! Such an inexpensive tool to use to increase your frozen supply. Would highly recommend!!”
