I want to buy a double breastpump and was considering these two. Does anyone have any experience of either/both to help me decide which one to get?

I'll be using it at work so the priority is to get a fast and effective pump. Size/weight/cost not really a priority.

Thanks

I expressed a lot with my first LO but I found that an electric pump makes the boobs fill up really quickly after and they become quite uncomfy. Does this help?

I want to express to allow the nanny to give breastmilk while I am out; not to relieve pressure. Sorry I wasn't clear

I got the freestyle and regretted it. It comes with horrendous straps that might work, but didn't for me as my boobs were too big (they are large)

I would get he pump in style, a wireless bra and cut holes in it to allow you to double pump.

I have the freestyle and love it. When I first tried it (after using the Medela electric for a few months), I didn't think it was that powerful. In actual fact, it is powerful but gentle. It is quiet, fast, gentle and effective :-)

Sorry, I meant to add, I don't use the hands free pumping straps as I am not worried about hands free. I like the opportunity to sit down!
