LOVE: 95 NEUTRAL: 59
REGRET: 14 WANT: 215
  • I loved this pump but it was not as strong as I hoped. Aug 13, 2024

  • Love for on the go pumping. I do have to use inserts since the smallest they make is 21 flanges. Be careful using before your supply is regulated because they don’t empty as well as my wall pump. May 16, 2024

  • I LOVE my Elvies! I have used them to pump at work for almost a year now, pretty much exclusively. They are discreet enough I can pump on the bus. Not good for doing chores but great for work Mar 15, 2024

  • Super easy to assemble and use! Love that I can use one while feeding baby on other side hands free!!! Different presets are amazing to minimize effort of manually switching! Mar 15, 2024

  • My go-to wearable pump! Now that they came out with the cushion inserts and have my size, this pump is very comfortable and easy to use. The app is a little testy though. Mar 04, 2024

  • These were AMAZING for me as an exclusive pumper. I was able to attend work meetings and provide milk for my baby. They can spill easily if not supported well within a bra. Mar 01, 2024

  • For the price of this pump I was expecting it to be amazing. Beyond disappointed with it. Did not have good suction and super hard to clean the milk collected. Not worth the price tag Feb 13, 2024

  • I had the Elvie stride and used for 8 months as my only pump as an exclusive pumper. Was able to feed baby daily with pumped milk and also build up a freezer supply of over 1000oz Jan 02, 2024

  • I love this pump. I don’t use it as my main pump but it’s great for on the go or quick in between pumps. I get great output with it. Nov 16, 2023

  • I love how lightweight and quiet these pumps are! I also love their smart settings in the Elvie app which can help you get better output. Nov 03, 2023

  • This pump is very disappointing as a result of constant leaking from the bottle release button. I also constantly dealt with moisture under the membrane causing it to lose suction constantly. Oct 08, 2023

  • This was the best breast pump i had. it was powerful and easy to use. Parts were easy to clean too. Oct 04, 2023

  • My favorite wearable breast pump. It always emptied me out in the suction was great Oct 04, 2023

  • Did not respond to this pump and tried everything Also battery life wasn't ideal as a nurse with long shifts and having to pump longer for lack of responding and letting down as often with this pump Sep 23, 2023

    The Elvie was good, but overpriced. The sensor that stops automatically once you reach 5 ounces never works properly and usually stops around 3.5oz, which is extremely irritating. Sep 06, 2023

  • Absolutely loved this pump! I went through 3 pumps before this one and regret not getting to sooner. It is super comfortable to pump with and the battery lasts for at least three 30 min pumps. Aug 20, 2023

  • As a surgeon this is AMAZING for pumping at work. I wouldn't have been able to pump at work without this pump. Great customer service. Cons: disconnects from app frequently, not as strong as spectra. Jul 28, 2023

  • Overall I like this product. I like being able to walk around and not be tied to a wall. You can’t bend over though or it will leak! Sometimes they don’t hold charge either. I still like it though! Jul 05, 2023

  • I have a love hate relationship with this breast pump. Jun 19, 2023

  • I used it with my firstborn and now with my second baby. I wish the suction was stronger and it leaks when you are moving around. There are cheaper and better alternatives out there. Jun 15, 2023

  • i really wanted to love this pump. i spent so much money trying to get it to figure out best for me & my body. I regret purchasing it & wasting so much money. plus it took 40+min to empty Jun 12, 2023

  • I was so excited about these, but ended up only using a few times. The output just wasn't as good as it was with my Spectra Jun 09, 2023

  • Very convenient and I have not had any problems so far. I wish it was less expensive and came with more parts so I don’t have to wash them right before using again Jun 01, 2023

  • I purchased this for my trip to Mexico without my baby, concerned about finding time to pump. It was an absolute lifesaver! Portable, quiet, and allows for pumping anywhere. I absolutely love it. May 30, 2023

  • I loved it at first however, for the price one of the hubs stopped working out of nowhere and would no longer connect to Bluetooth. When pumping the app would say “full” but would only be at 3oz. May 20, 2023

  • I used this towards the end of my pumping journey and while I loved how small and discreet they were I'm not sure if they were worth the money. I didn't feel as empty after my pumping session. May 02, 2023

  • One hub did not connect with the app, customer service seems responsive but for the price of this, and the time you would need it, its not ideal having to troubleshoot - and failing. Wish I can return Apr 14, 2023

  • I love my Elvie! I will say that it does leak and sometimes the sensors don't work when it is full. However, it has saved me many times when I need to pump hands free so it is a winner in my book. Apr 03, 2023

  • I have the Elvie stride and I love it! Charge lasts a whole day and you can walk around, sit down, or even feed the baby while pumping! It only takes me 10-15 minutes to fully empty, and gets so much. Apr 02, 2023

  • I didn’t respond well to this pump. The suction is not very strong. I could never get enough milk out. It was hard to tell if it was working or not Apr 01, 2023

  • this is great for going out to events or for quick use but I try to avoid daily use. I have had issues with it leaking and I feel as the suction isn't as strong as other wearable pumps Mar 28, 2023

  • I loved this at first, but get the best results with my Spectra. Nice for when I can’t use the spectra. Great for people with over supply. Company is great to work with and troubleshoot. Mar 21, 2023

  • These are ok. Sometimes they won’t connect to the app, they started working great, but now I feel like they don’t really empty me. I like my $119 pair from Amazon better. For the price I expect better Mar 17, 2023

  • I didn't love this pump. There are tons of tiny parts to wash. The suction wasn't a strong as I would like. Mar 14, 2023

  • I wanted to love this but its just "okay". Pro: Convenient, quiet, portable, easy to use. Cons: pricey, lots of parts to clean, app glitches, not great suction. I used this a lot at work when pumping Mar 08, 2023

    Ehh. Wasn’t my favorite pump. I only used these when I was out and about and needed to pump. Down side they didn’t hold much. Felt like my nips were burning. Not a great feeling. Can’t bend over. Mar 04, 2023

  • When I went back to work after maternity leave I knew I needed to get a pump that would allow me to still do my job while pumping discretely. I love this pump so much. Feb 28, 2023

  • Great for pumping in the go. The initial pull can be a little shocker, but once they're going I don't mind them. Charge usually lasts 3 pumps so not bad as long as it's not your primary pump Feb 25, 2023

    Why weeLove Milkflow Lactation Cookies:

    In case you need a valid excuse to eat cookies, here’s a really good one: boosting milk supply. Nursing moms need to fuel their bodies to keep up with the demands of milk production and new parenthood. (If you’ve been wearing the same pants for three days—we get it, girl!) While lactation teas, capsules and powders aren’t for everybody, cookies most certainly are.

    Milkflow™ from UpSpring created the first ever lactation cookies made with the dream team of ingredients: Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle. These two essentials work together to help naturally promote breast milk supply in those early days, during your baby’s growth spurts (when you’re glued to the glider for feedings!), and pumping sessions.

    Available in Oatmeal Raisin and Double Chocolate Chip, cookies are non-GMO and made in the USA with all natural ingredients. These tasty treats come in packs of two—perfect for tossing in your diaper bag for a healthy snack on the go. Each box comes with 10 packs (20 cookies total), so you’ll be able to keep your milk production going strong while keeping “Hangry Mom Running Errands” at bay. It’s a win-win.
