Would be good to get some opinions before I dish out for one.

Depends what you want it for, i used mine to help an inverted nipple problem identified after my first child had trouble breast feeding on one boob so i have been using it during my second pregnancy to losen the tendens behind the nipple so when number 2 does arrive we have a better chance of sucess. A friend used hers once her milk was in to make latching easier and seemed to get on ok but said it filled with milk and hurt abit

IIRC I used vaseline to help the suction and help them stay on lol

pps used mine after unsuccessfully trying to breastfeed ds1. b/f ds2 for 9 months successfully

That's good to know. I'm coming up to 6 months pregnant and want to get it sorted this time.

The info on this product suggests it offers a permanent fix - is this accurate??

It is for me. mine are no longer inverted

That's fantastic news SM. Looks like I'll be investing in one.

It's also good to hear they hold their resale value on ebay.
