Good if you’re breastfeeding and only need to pump one side. However there’s not many options for suction or speed Feb 26, 2024

This was a great product and came in handy for traveling or pumping at work. It's not as strong as the hospital ones, but gets the job done. My only complaint is that you can only pump one at a time. Jan 21, 2024

This pump has been amazing since my return to work. I use it every single day multiple times and love it's pumping power. It is easy to store and travel with. May 30, 2023

After using the Harmony I wanted something to build up a freezer stash. This pump is portable, works well and decently priced. Make sure to purchase spare parts as you do lose suction over time. Feb 10, 2022

Easy and convenient to bring with you anywhere. Powerful enough for every day use. Reusing for next baby! Dec 06, 2021

Convenient but weak- especially if you're used to a spectra or the pump in style May 01, 2021
Only pump I got good milk production with, occasional pumper only so one side at a time is fine with me. Apr 23, 2021

Emporia, Alabama
It's an open system pump. So milk or moisture is able to back up in it and cause mold. I had this pump for 3 months, and even without milk backing up, it still became moldy with regular cleaning. Dec 03, 2020

I have since bought the freestyle. Suction great when plugged in not when using batteries. It also was alot of work to boost milk supply being a single so I opted for the double. Sep 01, 2020

I've been EB for the most part, but this pump has been a lifesaver when baby started sleeping through the night. It takes only seconds to put together and I love the option to use a battery. Aug 31, 2020

I wish I would have splurged and got a double instead. It works great and is perfect of you feed from one side and are just pumping one side but once you need to pump both sides it becomes a pain. Aug 11, 2020

This pump is good, it has pros and cons, it is good that it is not too big, you can carry it around if you put batteries in. Cons are that it is loud and it eats batteries, they don’t last long. Mar 27, 2020

I really love the portability (option for battery operation, or plug in), and the suction for something so small! I use it daily. Jan 06, 2020
- Natalie F.

This is a great little travel pump. It only does one side at a time but it's powerful enough without being uncomfortable and it gets the job done pretty quickly. Aug 11, 2019
- Casandra M.

I had this with my first pregnancy and ended up quitting because pumping took so long, the suction also wasn’t all that great, definitely am going for a double pump next time. Aug 01, 2019
- Jasmine S.

Nice to have for the occasional or on the go pumping. Suction is not as powerful as the larger medela pumps and you can only pump one breast at a time. Feb 22, 2019
- Jessy K.

This worked really well while I was pumping. I like that I could clip it on my pants and walk around. Feb 06, 2019

Worked well as I was only occasionally pumped. I like that it is small and portable. It would have been more efficient for me if it were hands free. Jan 28, 2019
- Laura H.

This was the perfect pump for on the go. I could use it discreetly while driving somewhere to run errands so it cut down on time spent pumping and not getting anything done. Jan 17, 2019

I had a frustrating time breast feeding. Had multiple problems but didn't wanna give up for the benefits of it for my little guy. I received this as a gift from my sister and wow! It was a life saver. Sep 30, 2018
Got this as my first pump WHEN I was desperate. I wish I wouldn’t have. LOW suction and only 1 side at a time took forever. Was nice to have battery power and to be able to walk around while pumping. Sep 04, 2018
- Janet L.

Had gotten this as gift but had exchanged for double pump rather than singular. Less time more milk. Aug 09, 2018

Easy to use and carry. It is not very strong and, depending the woman, it can take so long to pump. Jul 25, 2018
- Angie S.
Greenville, Illinois
This pump was ok. I really have no major complaints. A double electric is so much more convenient though! Jul 02, 2018
- Kourtney M.

I love this pump because it works so great. The downside is that it is only a single electric pump so pumping both sides is super time consuming. Apr 11, 2018
- Rasa L.

The best. I am very happy that I have bought it-its very gently and works just great for me. The only problem is, that I didnt had it with my first child. Feb 28, 2018

Fantastic for relieving engorgement before my double pump arrived. Love the small profile. Feb 19, 2018
- Jeannette L.
Dyersburg, Tennessee
I wish I had spent a little more for the double pump. The motor seems to be going out on it. It isn't very strong so it takes FOREVER to pump especially since it's one at a time. Convenient for travel Dec 20, 2017

This pump is perfect for traveling, very light weight, battery option and comes with a carry case. I use it all the time when I travel. Nov 28, 2017

Milkflow Lactation Cookies

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 thought I'd get more use out of it, but it just wasn't strong enough for my pumping needs. Jul 25, 2017
- Stefanie P.

I'm a first time mom so I liked the price point and it seemed convenient at first, but eventually became cumbersome to only be able to pump one breast at a time. Apr 29, 2017

I thought this would get the job done but I wish I would have gotten the double pump. I just takes too much time to pump with just one pump. Apr 13, 2017

I wish I would have spent just a bit more money and bought the double pump. It takes too long to pump one at a time! Jan 21, 2017

This was convenient, but the motor blew out after about 6 mos. Since I had another pump, I didn't seek to fix or replace it. But the company might have done something. Oct 04, 2016

I don't pump often so this does the trick. Pump in style is a better pump and can do both at once but this is good for occasional use. Sep 27, 2016
- Margaret M.

Took this on holiday with me and it worked like a charm. It isn't as strong of a pump as hospital grade, but maintained for the trip. Aug 08, 2016

This is awesome to keep in your car if you have a double for home use. My baby unexpectedly ended up with RSV and I was able to pump while baby was too sick to nurse. (In the hospital) Aug 08, 2016
- Becca D.
Piedmont, Oklahoma
I was obsessed with keeping my supply so I kept this in the car as an extra. It did not have near the power of my instyle pump. It took a while and sucked less milk. Feb 01, 2016

worked as a backup pump when i left my main pump at work. Jan 21, 2016

This just didn't work for me at all. It took me hours to pump (which was probably my body). I think a double pump would have been a better option for me. May 21, 2015
- Sara S.

This pump is small, portable, but powerful enough that it does the trick. I loved being able to take it traveling without using too much space. Easy to clean and care for, too. Can also use batteries. Mar 16, 2014
