Don't waste your money on this junk. October 31, 2008 D. Liu (San Francisco) I should have listened to the comments before purchasing this junk. It only lasted a week. The valve on the second pump (the one that is not attached to the motor) would get stuck after a minute and i would have to stop pumping and dry it out. As all you mothers that pump would know, it sucks to interupt the pump when your milk is flowing smoothly. I paid $50 for this worthless piece of junk. They should discontinue this product. I had to end up spending $250 for the Medela Pump in Style pump. I should have bought that from the start. It is soo much better than this pump. Also the description said it was a quiet pump. NOT! It was so loud (sounded like a lawn-mower) that i would have to pump in another room. I would recommend every one to not purchase any Evenflo products. I have a baby car seat manufactured by them and it was not easy to use at all. The only good products that they do sell are the baby bottles.
Worked for a month!!! September 18, 2008 Brittney Larson I bought this pump after I had to return the rental to the hospital.Boy was that a mistake.I bought it because I didnt want to spend a lot of money and I didnt know how long I was going to breastfeed for.It's super loud and super top heavy and the bottles would always fall over and leak milk.I only used this pump for a month before it completly died but before that I would get such a small amount of milk that sometimes I would just dump it out.I now own the Lansinoh double electric and the Avent Isis manual.I couldnt be happier with these two pumps. I use the manual when I'm feeding just to get the other side and the Lansinoh when I'm at work or if I miss a feeding.Since I've been using these two pumps my supply has incresed.
Good enough for emergencies August 31, 2008 Kristiana Kincaid (San Francisco, CA USA) We bought this pump as an emergency backup. It is good enough to be a cheap item that you keep in your car, but I'd never have considered this to replace my Medela Pump In Style Advanced. The reason why the dual pump gets lower reviews than the single is that the second pump is daisy-chained off the first -- so you're getting the same amount of suction for both breasts (you can use only the one at a time, though). Not conducive to pumping more than a couple of ounces, if you're lucky. The four-ounce capacity of the bottles is rather optimistic, in my opinion, especially since the entire unit can run on 3 AA batteries. So, if you're stuck somewhere and desperately need to pump off a bit of excess, you can use this unit. It rates better than a manual pump simply because at least you don't end up with sore hands as well. Understand, however, that you'll still have to hold onto the pump(s) as you go -- so driving while pumping is out of the question!
Why can't I rate this pump a 'ZERO'? August 22, 2008 A. Thomas I read the reviews and figured for the cost it was worth the risk. Well, it failed after 10 days, the motor just went dead, and I spent almost 2 weeks arguing with the "geniuses" from Evenflo about this pump. The 10 days my wife used it, it worked very well, although a little loud. As a precaution, we bought a "slightly used" Medela Swing pump on ebay for $58.00 and spent an additional $13.00 for a new membrane and shield and it works flawlessly, even 2 months later! We finally managed to get Wal-Mart to let us return it, we had to show it was broken when we opened it. Spend a little extra and get something that will work and last.
It gets the job done!! June 4, 2008 Tabitha Smith (CA, USA) This pump is great! I have been breastfeeding for 20 months and I use it CONSTANTLY. I've even gone on a week long trip and had no trouble pumping enough to leave with my son for the entire length of the trip, but also took it with me and pumped the whole time I was gone to keep up my milk supply. Yes, every now and then the valve gets stuck and you have to tap the bottle to get it to release the milk- but it is usually because I just washed it and it dried shut, so if you remember to pull it open before you start you'll have no problems. It's compact enough to take anywhere, you can use it as a single or double pump, it hooks up to power or can be used on batteries. I'm not sure exactly what people are expecting for a dual breast pump that only costs $50, but for me it is worth a little hassel every now and then, it's not a $300 Medela! I could see if you had problems like low supply that it might not be the greatest, but I would suggest that if you have trouble using this pump you probably would with any pump, also just like any pump or breastfeeding in general it does take a little getting used to, and is a little painful at first. Nevertheless, I would HIGHLY recommend this pump, infact I'm buying another one for a friend who is expecting!
