Supplier says

The Philips AVENT ISIS Manual Breast Pump includes 2 AVENT Bottles (125ml/4oz). Mums can express directly into the container which can then be used with the Airflex Feeding Bottle for easy feeding. The pump works quickly, gently and quietly without the need for motors or batteries.

I used this pump for my first child and when I came back to it some of the parts had stress fractures (!) and Avent were very good about replacing them at v low cost. It's a bit fiddly to put together initially but fine once you get the hang of it.

Great little pump,found it worked really well even after I had been using the hospital electric pumps when I was in for a while.A bit fiddley to put together a first but after a couple of times you become a whizz at it.Had no problems using it last time round and have just purchased a new one for the next one due shortly.Would recommended to all.

Couldn't get it to work, just ended up with hand cramp and about 2ml of milk. Complete waste of money, might work if your milk supply's established but I was trying to boost mine and it failed. Hand expressing was easier and more productive. Ended up hiring electric one which worked a treat.

easy to use and clean

nearly as good as the Medela one that they use in the hospital (which costs £1000 to buy and £40 per month to rent)

fits on avent bottles so it's easy to store breast milk in the fridge and then give to the baby as a bottle

Good value for money, easy to follow instructions, some kits come with cups to freeze breastmilk in.
