I’m a first time mum and this was the first (and only) pump I purchased. It’s so easy to use and understand and put together, very compact and easy to take everywhere and holds its charge very very well - I was only charging it every few days despite exclusively pumping for the first month.

Bub is now 9 months old and I still use it every few days as I build my freezer stash and give bottles every so often!

Medela also have an App so you can track your pumping which is amazing!

I highly recommend this breast pump!

I was using a borrowed hospital pump which was enormous and clunky and made me feel worse when I was already stressed about my milk coming in. My husband walked across the road from the hospital and bought this, and it was so much more compact, comfortable, and easy to use. You can connect it to your phone so it automatically times how long you've pumped for, and you can use this app to track feeds as well. This really helped me stay on top of things in my post partum brain fog!

I also bought the pumping bra, but to be honest I just tuck it into any old cheap bra and it stays in fine so long as I'm not bouncing around the house!

Once I got the hang of breastfeeding I felt silly for buying such an expensive pump, and it sat on the shelf for a while... BUT then my little one started only feeding on one side for days at a time, so I used the pump to clear out the other breast and I froze the milk for later. I'm constantly relieved that I have such an easy, clean and comfortable device ready to go when I need it.

Finally if you forget to charge it you can still use it plugged in, and if you have a not-apple phone you can use the same charger! So I can plug it in next to my bed and pump even if it's flat.

This was a great little pump for starting the milk pumping journey. It's nice and compact so it can be transported, very easy to use and to clean. The double pump is great as it speeds up the process. Not as powerful as the big pumps but worked well for us as we were only occasionally needing to express milk.
