Best (and cheapest) electric breast pump

[iamsuchatit]

I’ve got a manual pump but am struggling with it so would prefer an electric one.

I don’t want to spend like £100 on one and was looking at the Tommee Tippee one but was wondering what you ladies would recommend?

I pumped for longer than most as my ds was born 11 weeks early and in the NICU for a long time. Tbh I didn't find that you could avoid paying out for a pump if you want a good one. The madella swing was by far the best and worth every penny. Best thing to do would be to buy one second hand and get new tubes etc for it. It's very effective, quick and small enough to be portable. Also wasn't uncomfortable like some pumps.

It hugely depends on your body what pump will be best.

For me hospital pump was hugely ineffective and incredibly painful, lanisohl pump was acceptable, medela just didn't seem to do anything.

So I second getting one second hand or hiring to try it out first.
