Love that it fits their bottles (makes for a seamless transition), but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't! I still need to experiment and figure out how to get more with this pump! (Jan 17, 2018)

If you have to use a manual pump, make it this one. I've been using Phillips since 2011. I detoured and tried others along the way, and always come back to this one. Hands down the best Jan 20, 2022

Best breast pump I’ve ever used, manual or electric, across all three of my breastfed babies. Amazing comfort and control and it is extremely effective and efficient at removing milk! Nov 18, 2021
No need to purchase. I can express more with my hands than using this manual pump. Mar 06, 2021

Great for a quick pump on the go when you don't have time to do a full pumping session or can't bring your pump with. Feb 24, 2021

This manual one is so easy to use, especially in the middle of the night when you don't want to drag out the whole electric one or when you're on the go. Feb 19, 2021

Didn't use it often, but kept it at work just in case something went wrong with my electric pump. (If a duckbill wore out, etc.) Happy with the piece of mind. Feb 03, 2021

It was easy to use, and easy enough to clean. Personally I preferred the manual pumps, but I was also not pumping much, so it was reasonable. Nov 20, 2020

Great for when we travel! Don't have to worry about being "plugged in". Jan 03, 2020

I have used this manual pump for both kids and have never left the house without it. This is discreet enough that I can carry in my bag and pull it out for emergencies or places that have no outlet. Jan 03, 2020

I haven't used many manual pumps, but it was a lot easier than I was made to believe it would be because of this. Its comfortable and it takes a while before my hand starts to hurt. Nov 23, 2019

I really liked it in the beginning but now I have less success with it. Also I wish the pump flanges were a little smaller, they are rather large. Tedious to take apart & clean but that’s all pumps Nov 18, 2019

I never thought I would let-down for a manual pump, but this really worked great. I will use it again for our new baby. Oct 15, 2019
- Alison M.

Yes, all manual pumps have a carpal tunnel risk. But this one is so much better than most. Suction is so good and it's so comfortable that I've started leaving my beloved Spectra home on short trips. Sep 19, 2019
- Jen L.

I really hate this pump. It hurts my hand, squeaks loudly, and has lots of pets to clean. Keeping it only for emergencies and I don’t see myself using it again. Sep 05, 2019

This little guy is great for traveling. I found the silicone hand pumps only work when feeding baby on one side, but this can be used without baby there to trigger let down. Aug 09, 2019

Just got this so I don't have to pull out all my electric pump stuff to pump at home. It works great so far Jun 14, 2019

I bought this when I became engorged to the point where gently touching my breast caused pain. It was a life saver helping me relieve my engorgement. May 21, 2019
- Paula D.

I got it for only $11! I have seen great reviews and I have all other Avent bottles. When I use it I can’t get any milk but I can get milk while using the haaka. May 16, 2019

Great for on the road traveling or pumping after nursing. Easy to use, easy to clean, had great suction. I was in a road biking even and took this with me for pitstops to keep up my milk supply. May 15, 2019
- Erin D.

I bought this as a back up for my office in the event I forgot my regular pump. I only needed to use it once. It worked fine - nice to have as a backup. A lot of parts to clean. Apr 19, 2019

I use this at work or when I'm in the passenger seat. Easy way to pump when you don't have electricity and works great! Apr 02, 2019

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.

- Erin H.

I loved how easy and comfortable it was to use and clean. I wasn't able to express a lot but it is great for on the go or to relieve pressure from engorgement. Love the bottles that come with it Apr 16, 2018
- Abbie K.
Rapid City, South Dakota
This was my first hand pump, and I’m not sure that hand pumping is for me. It was comfortable, but I struggled with the hand stamina. But the pump was nice and the 4 oz bottle that comes with is great Apr 13, 2018

I had a hard time getting good suction with this. Wasn't able to express much milk compared to my electric pump. Positives are it is portable and quiet. I received this from the weeSpring parentpanel Apr 12, 2018

I got this from the parent panel in exchange for my honest review and it has been a diaper bag staple ever since. It’s compact and extracts a fair amount of milk with little effort. Feb 07, 2018

- Brittany L.

Got great output using this pump in a pinch when I left parts of my electric at home. The manual work did make my hand cramp a bunch so just as I was getting a good stream I'd have to stop. Jun 27, 2017
- Jaime H.

I loved the comfort cup on this. It made a big difference. I would keep this pump in my diaper bag. Apr 10, 2017

Decent pump, the cushion in the flange makes pumping more comfortable. Easy to take apart to clean and reassemble. I love the flange cover for when the pump is in my diaper bag. Aug 22, 2016
- Lydia B.
Chicago, Illinois
Great little pump! Love this thing. I use it when I don't want the hassle of getting out my PISA. For example, in the car, if I'm pumping after LO is done eating to get the extra, etc. Jul 14, 2015
