Absolutely essential if you are planning to express regularly, I have many friends who have bought other pumps and given up expressing because they are a nightmare to use. The variable suction controller means you can start off quite gently, great in the early days if you're sore. I broke the mains adaptor on mine though and haven't been able to get another without buying a whole new pump so am stuck with batteries which can be a bit hit and miss, the connection doesn't always seem to work. It's also not as practical as some other pumps in that you can't feed from the bottle - or I can't anyway, haven't been able to locate teats anywhere, so you always have to decant into another bottle. Also, if you want to express a lot the 5.5oz capacity isn't very much. Generally a great buy though.

Its fab- quick easy to use, effective which I never foundthe hand held ones to be. Only quibble is that it can be difficult to keep clean!

A Godsend - small and light, easy to use and efficient. A little bit noisy but I could put up with that. Definitely worth the money.

I was unimpressed with this breast pump but unfortunately have nothing to compare it to! Extremely noisy and took hours to empty one breast. Not very comfy either in my opinion. I felt I'd been ripped off, given how expensive it is compared to others. All in all - very disappointed. Will be trying another for baby number 2.

It didn't work for me. I found the noise very off-putting and this affected my let down so badly that I struggled to get any milk at all.

I swapped the pump for a manual one and do much better with that one
