I reluctantly bought this pump after failing to get on with a manual pump. It is expensive, especially as I only use it to allow myself to go out occasionally. However, it is very easy to use and clean. Negative points - the valve is very small and I imagine would be easy to lose although you do get a spare. Also in the instructions it recommended boiling to sterilise but after e-mailing the company directly I found that you can sterilise it via the cold water method or in a microwave steriliser which has made life a lot easier.

Very easy to use and clean. I'm happy with it but don't have a benchmark to compare it to. I haven't had any problems with it. I've given it a low mark for value for money because I don't use it very often and it is quite expensive

I used it several times a day for about 3 months and then once a day for 3 more months. It's so easy to use and clean. It's fantastic. I needed it to express milk to mix my lo's Gaviscon in as he refused it with water.

Best thing I bought, worth it's weight in gold.

In all, this is a great pump! I use it every day and wouldn't be without it. Would recommend to anyone.

I don't think it is quite as effective as the hospital pumps, but it is very close.

Haven't quite figured out if I can use it 'hands free' so that I can be doing two things at once.

Also, I have managed to get milk in the tubing a few times, not sure how this happens, but makes it a bit difficult to clean - though this would be the same with any pump tubing.

Overall, a very good and effective pump, which I would recommend.

Amazing pump!

Bought it 2 weeks after giving birth and used it for the next 12 (once a day usually). It is so gentle and yet so efficient! Now lended it to a friend of mine who uses it 24/7 and loves it too!!!
