I bought this product because it was recommended by our hospital's lactation consultant.  I am a working mom so I knew I'd be doing alot of pumping.  Turns out, my baby never learned to latch on so all I did was pump!  Needless to say, I had plenty of bonding time with my Pump-in-Style!  I liked...

I have been using the Medela Pump In Style Advanced for about 8 months, after going back to work when my baby was six weeks old. I use it at work, once or twice a day, and sometimes on the weekends. I've also flown cross-country with it several times as a carry-on. Occasionally someone official will ask me what it is or want to give it an extra screening, but other than that I've had no issues with taking it through security. Through all this, I have found it to be very solid and dependable, with no fuss or worries. It is lightweight although a little bulky, and simple to use. Once I developed...

The Medela Advanced Pump in Style breast pump is a great product.  It is easy to assemble and use.  It has a nice carrying case that has extra room for bottles and an ice pack.  I took this thing everywhere with me.  I never left home with out it so that I could pump wherever, whenever.  It has an adapter that can be purchased separately so that you can even pup in your car.  It may be weird to some to pump in your car, but if you are a dedicated breastfeeder, you will find that no where is off limits.  This pump made breastfeeding so much easier.  When I was in a place I felt uncomfortable...

After taking a breast feeding class just weeks before delivering my son, I knew I was pro-breastfeeding.  The class teacher showed us different models for breast pumps but stronly encouraged breast feeding the ol' natural way.  While I understood this to be the best option for my baby, I knew that in about three monts I would be venturing back to work and I wanted to breast feed my child for much longer than that.  The only other option was to purchase a breast pump. 

The Medela Pump In Style Shoulder Bag was the best option for me.  The black bag it comes in was perfect for walking into the...

Medela has made a wonderful product in thier breast pump.  It is well made and comes in a case.  the case is a black case that looks like a briefcase.  if fact i carried it to work with me along with my regular work briefcase.  the pump case had a right right sized compartment that came equpped with ice packs.  this was so the milk that was expressed could then be placed in teh bag and kept cold until i would arrive home.  my trip was fourty five minutes and it was conistently still cold at the end of that time.  it took some time to get comfortabel with the feeling of using a pump.  it...

I recieved the Medela Double Electric Breast Pump when I had my son and I loved it! It was lightweight and everything fit in its own bag so it was very very very very easy to use and carry around with me to work and school and friends houses if needed and to families houses. I had a car adaptor so it would work in my car, all I had to do was hook it up to the power outlet in my car and it would work! I got another one this year when I had my daughter and am just as happy with it as well! It comes with two size shields, four bottles to store my milk, Ice packs to keep my milk cold if I am out and...

I was given a Medela PISA by my sister-in-law who used it for three days while her son was in the hospital.  I replaced all the parts and then started using it when I went back to work part-time when my son was 2 months old.  I used it twice daily while part-time then three times a day when I went back to the office full time.  While not the most quiet, it was quiet enough so that I could be on a conference call at work while pumping.  It's very efficient and pretty gentle.  I'd recommend it to anyone looking to buy a pump for longer-term use at home or in the office.

The Medela Advanced Pump In Style is wonderful. I exclusively breastfeed my son but every once and a while we let daddy feed him with a bottle. This is the best pump on the market, in my opinion. I only need an extra 15 minutes and can pump alot of milk for my son. I love that it is a double breast pump so I can finish so much faster! If you are a working mom that is wanting to pump milk while at work, this is the pump for you. Itis fast and discreet since the pump is within a black stylish carrying bag. I love this!

For my first child I was planning to stay home and got a manual pump as I did not plan on being away from my child much and didn't see a need for a big expensive pump. It was cheap and uncomfortable and made my hand hurt by the time I got 2 ounces of milk. It also broke rather quickly and was discarded long before I was done nursing my child.

Knowing this, I decided with my second child to go ahead and get a nice pump to make things easier. It helped that our insurance covered part of the cost, but either way I was very pleased with our decision to get the Medela Pump and Go set. The motor was...

I recently had my 2nd child, and yes while there is a 10 year gap between the two, I was incredibly amazed at the differences in all of the products. With my first child, I nursed exclusively and never really needed to pump. She went to work with me. With my 2nd child, I have to return to work in November and needed to get a pump. Originally, I had bought the First Years PUmp, because the price was right. While in the hospital I spoke with many lactation consultants who told me, the same thing. You will not like the pump, it doesn't have a strong enough sucking sensation, which will take longer...

I tried numerous times to breastfeed my son.  I contacted lactation consultants, hospital staff, as well as our pediatrician and my perinatologist.  I exhausted every option from massaging the breats into his mouth to nipple shields to the cheaper store pumps and nothing helped build up breastmilk, disabling my aility to provide it to my newborn son.  A friend told me about her Medela breast pump and told me that it was the brand the hospitals used.  I looked around and finally purchased our Medela pump In Style Advanced with shoulder bag.  It was amazing.  The shoulder bag wasn't gaudy or...

I am a working, military mother with very little time to pump during the workday and at times very limited on space to pump. It having been 6 years since my last baby and my first Medela Breast Pump, it was time to move on to something  a little more updated in style of the bag and I was looking for something that used a soft breast shield.  So i went the cheap route and tried two other brands of breastpumps, waisting over $200 in the process because they could not even compare to the Medela Brand Breastpumps!    I started researching and found the new Medela products and there were two...

My daughter was a preemie so I started off with the Medela Symphony double pump.  I rented that for a while and then searched for the best pump to purchase.  I tried several but none of them could compare.  Some were not able to express a good amount of milk which would effect my supply in a bad way.  Some were just not gentle so switching back and forth was not comfortable.  Once I found the Pump in Style Advance I knew I found a great pump.  This pump has a let down feature that mimic's the baby. The pump will automatically switch from the short fast sucking to the longer sucking after...

I returned a cheaper pump to get the Medela Pump and Style and it was absolutely well worth the money. Medela was the brand of pump I used in the hospital before I came home and I was able to use all the attachments they have me there interchangeably. I liked that there are two pumps so you don't have to switch breasts, it saves a lot of time. If for some reason you only want to pump one side there is not an option built in so you have to get creative to keep up suction. Pumping generally took me about fifteen minutes. The cycle starts with a let down mode that stimulates the mik production and...

The Medela Pump In Style Advanced Breast Pump- Shoulder Bag is a great product!!  For my first pregnancy I had the Medela Pump In Style Double Ease and it worked pretty good but ended-up dying eventually.  When I had my third child a year and a half ago I got this pump and it worked great.  There are many great things about this product.  Number one is that you can buy it in a shoulder bag or backpack.  This makes it convenient to carry places and doesn't scream the word "Breast Pump" for all to see.  Second, all the products are tucked away nice and neat which helps keep it clean and easy...
