Great, when it works....

by Kurt Reinhardt 2008-06-27

We've bought two of these for my wife. When they work, they work well. The problem is that it's way too easy to break the seal inside the handle casing , which results in the handle popping out and acting broken. This happens regularly.

FYI - how you fix it:

1) Twist the blue ring to separate the handle assembly from the bottle and funnel.

2) Turn the handle assembly upside down and find the small hole in the blue part

3) Rotate the blue part until the hole lines up exactly in the center of the handle

3) Separate the blue piece from the white and you can then see the clear silicon - you should also see that it no longer has a tight seal.

4) Remove, wash, replace and reassemble - solves the suction problem until it happens again (and it will happen again, often).

Horrible, don't waste your money

by A. Schell 2007-02-27

I bought this peice of junk, and it just arrived a little over two hours ago. Why the review so soon, you ask? Because I used it once, took it apart and cleaned it just as the directions said to, and now it's no longer working. The handle is messed up, and I can't take it apart to fix it. I got one pump out of it and it broke. I will never, never buy a product from this company again.

Easy and convenient

This product was convenient, and very simple to use. I would recommend to any new mother. Good price, good quality.

So far, so good.

by Anon 2006-08-07

I bought this for an upcoming vacation and decided to give it a couple of test runs before the trip. So far it seems great. I pumped over 4 ounces in under 10 minutes and it was easy and painless (I should mention that I do have a fairly good supply in general though). If it keeps working this well, then it might replace the bulky and messy electric Medela pump that cost 10 times as much. We'll see?

Pathetic

by Teacher mom of 2 2006-07-01

First of all, we had to use a pipe wrench to get the thing unscrewed... it was so tight neither dh or I could get it to budge and even w/ the pipe wrench it was a challenge... Then, there was no way I could get the arrow to line up w/ the square, unless I used the pipe wrench... hmmm... not sure I want to carry a pipe wrench around with me when I need to pump... Oh, and the suction is horrible. I have the Avent Isis but wanted something I could pump directly into the Soothie bottles, stupid choice... the Avent is about 10,000 times better, even with more parts to clean, well worth the time and money... With the Avent Isis I can pump 6-10 oz in 5 minutes... this one I was lucky to get an ounce in 5 minutes, don't waste your money.
