Hi ladies

Is it really worth the money? Any recommendations for this product?

I keep hearing more negatives than positives.

Thank you x

They seem to break very easily, the risk of contamination of the collected milk may be high due to extended periods at body temperature, they ssem to increase the risk of blocked ducts and mastitis.

I've got an Elvie after using a double electric, manual and haakaa and love it. It's worth the money for me but I only use it to pump 1-2 times a day. I get a reasonable amount off it (quickest would be full 150ml bottle in 5 mins). I like it because I can pump while doing stuff, I hated being attached to the wall with the other electric, even for short periods. Also very easy to clean.
If you are just looking to do the occasional pump, I would highly recommend the haakaa, as it's so easy to use and cheap.
