Medela Harmony Pump

Becky S.

weeThink

While most parents opt for a double-electric, this handy little manual pump can be a lifesaver and is affordable enough to buy in addition to your workhorse pump. It's quiet, discreet, and fits easily in your regular handbag. One weeSpring editor used hers while in her airplane seat, with no one the wiser. It's also helpful for quick relief if you get engorged and it can be used to relieve pressure to help baby to latch. Plus, because it isn't electric, it can be used anywhere (even the shower, which is many moms go-to for treating clogged ducts).

The Catch: If this is the only pump you’re using, your hand will probably tire after a while.

    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.

  • I used this over an electric pump for both my kids. Way faster and great for on the go! This went everywhere with me and was great when i was on the go! Lasted for both kids about 2 years too Aug 05, 2020

  • This is simple and easy to use. I find it’s not as effective as an electric pump (I have the spectra), but it’s perfect for just pumping one side or on the go! Jul 15, 2020

  • One of my favorite baby items!! Seems like it wouldn’t be great but for traveling it’s incredible! Easy to pack and works so well. Always left one in my car just in case I needed it. HUGE fan of this. Jun 14, 2020

  • I’ve used this a few times, and it’s good to have in a pinch or if you need to let off milk on the go. I wouldn’t make this my full time pump. It takes a lot of effort & doesn’t feel user friendly. May 23, 2020

    I got this as backup for date night or if we lost power and I needed to pump. but I couldn't figure out the flow - or maybe just don't have the forearm strength needed? Apr 10, 2020

  • This is a very low maintenance pump and was great to supplement my larger hospital grade pump for when I just needed a quick pump or if my baby only ate off of one breast. Easy to pack also Feb 22, 2020

    I have the Medela Freestyle as my primary pump but I use this one as an emergency backup that I keep in the car Jan 26, 2020

  • My hospital gave this to me when i had my son. It's perfect for those late night pump sessions in whichyou don't want to hook anything up. It's perfect for your nightstand. Very easy to clean and use! Jan 05, 2020

  • Way to expensive for a simply pump. Lots of parts, poor suction, bad design leads to tired hands. Can't empty breast even after a long time. Dec 11, 2019

  • It works well but was uncomfortable to use I prefers the avent pump over this Nov 26, 2019

    • Amy S.

    • Kansas City , Missouri

    After trying three different electric pumps, I didn't have much hope for this. I bought it to have in case of an emergency, but I find myself using it often! It's very easy, and works well. Nov 19, 2019

  • Great and useful. I have this and use if I want to induce a let down for my newborn. Oct 31, 2019

  • This is so handy in a pinch - love to have while on a plane or in a car - can pump quietly and discreetly. Oct 26, 2019

    • Thu P.

    • Chicago, Illinois

    Love that I can use in the car, or anyplace that does not have an outlet. Oct 23, 2019

  • I didn't love this. It worked, but I felt as if the top piece kept coming off and I had to continue to attach it. Oct 01, 2019

  • Perfect option on the go. Works every bit as well as my electric pump Sep 12, 2019

  • I loved this manual pump when I used with both if my kids. I had so many electrical pumps yet always loved this pump better. It didn't hurt as much and I went at my own pace and got plenty of milk out Jul 22, 2019

  • Love that I can put this in my purse or diaper bag without lugging around my whole pump to quickly relieve engorgement. Jun 21, 2019

  • Everyone needs a manual pump! This was worth every penny as I often found myself getting more milk manually than from the electric pump. It is awesome on the go, especially on vacation and flying. Jun 12, 2019

  • Works for when you don’t have a electric pump May 17, 2019

  • The stand keeps the bottle from spilling when ready to stop pumping and store away. My bottles spilled alot with out the use of this. It's easy simple to use and less to clean. Fast and easy use pump. Apr 25, 2019

  • I was given one of these at the hospital. It certainly comes in handy, but I can't say I found it particularly effective. Apr 23, 2019

  • I wouldn’t say I love or regret this purchase. It’s nice to have on the go, but it also isn’t as effective as I anticipated. Apr 10, 2019

  • Didn't do a thing for me. I really thought I could relieve some engorgement with this manual pump but I barely got a few drops after 10 minutes. Apr 04, 2019

  • Used it early on when I first started pumping. Worked well at the beginning, but eventually it wore out and stopped working well. It was easy to clean, but not the most durable manual pump Mar 20, 2019

  • This is my third hand pump and the only one I like. It is comfortable and easy to use. I pump just as much with this as my double electric spectra. Jan 27, 2019

  • I got this for free from the hospital. I did not like the manual pump at all! It hurt so bad to pump this way and definitely preferred my automatic pump instead. Jan 17, 2019

  • I honestly use this more than my electric pump. I can use this with one hand while baby nurses on the other! Takes some practice not to loose suction and tip forward while unlatching so no milk lost! Jan 06, 2019

  • If you are on-the-go and breastfeeding this is a must!!! Made traveling and pumping so much easier than lugging the huge pump with us! Jan 02, 2019

  • Should have bought this from the beginning. So much easier to lug around than the electric one. Very effective, too. Dec 03, 2018

  • I have the larger system for home use but this was perfect for travel. Nov 30, 2018

  • Perfect for pumping emergencies! Oct 14, 2018

  • I really wanted to like this product because I’ve heard so many great things but it was too much work for me and I prefer the pump. I will continue to use on an emergency basis while traveling. Sep 19, 2018

  • This is THE only manual pump you should have! As someone with stubborn breasts, the electric pumps just don’t work as well and this gives me five or more ounces in under 10 minutes! Sep 05, 2018

  • This pump didn’t do it for me sadly, as I love the medela electric pumps! It just didn’t suction as well as I wanted it to. Aug 31, 2018

  • I wanted a manual pump as a back-up. This is a ton of work to express any milk. I rarely used it. May 16, 2018

  • This hand-held pump is indispensable for breastfeeding moms with hard letdowns. Now I can quickly pump an ounce from each side so my baby doesn't choke on the excess milk. May 13, 2018

  • I used this a bit when I was in places that didn't accommodate a double-electric pump. It does the job but I prefer electric pumps. May 08, 2018

  • The valve wore out with only a few times of use. Washing was likely the issue. Worked well at first but as soon as valve started to wear it was no longer able to pump at all. Decent price if it last Apr 19, 2018

  • The handle tends to rotate during use and as it happens the suction decreases, so you have to stop, fix the inner T-part that attaches to the suction cup so it's in proper position and then resume. Apr 17, 2018

  • Very handy when your not at home/hands free. Love the portability however, there's a little rubber o ring that wears out and weakens the suction. I just bought some extra o ring at Ace hardware store. Mar 04, 2018

  • I felt like this pump was very painful to use compared to electric pumps. I also didn't get near the amount of milk while pumping compared to using electric pumps. Mar 02, 2018

  • I have an electric pump, but I am so happy to have his too for quick pumps, on the go, and as backup. It helps me pump more out than my electric pump! Feb 23, 2018

  • Expensive for what it is, but great backup to have on a work trip Feb 23, 2018

    • Lael G.

    • Temecula, California

    A wonderful and inexpensive pump!! Feb 13, 2018

  • Life saver! I have a double electric pump as well, but this is my go-to. It works so much better and so quickly, plus it is easy to take along anywhere. Feb 09, 2018

  • This hand pump is awesome! I brought it with me when I was traveling. I was able to pump in the car with no problem. It is very easy to use. Jan 30, 2018

  • For a manual pump this works great! It gets a lot of milk out but takes more time since it’s not a double electric pump. Jan 27, 2018

  • If you prefer the hand pump over the electric this is the one to purchase, or just purchase to keep in your purse or baby bag for when you're out and about. This thing has great suction Jan 19, 2018
