Medela Breast Milk Storage Bottles - BPA-Free - Pack of 3 x 150 ml

I’m a first time mum who had a c-section my milk didn’t come in for a few days the hospital let me borrow their Arlo one (medical grade) to help my milk supply but I wasn’t keen on a pump you had to hold the bits. After reading reviews I saw this one was medical grade and handsfree, although it cost most thanks my original budget it was worth it. I’m very happy with my choice. Easy to clean, pump, great suction and you can move about. Easy to set up, washed down after use then I put it in a Milton sterilising bucket until the next use. If you need a pump as good as the hospital one and want to be able to move about and multi task this is the pump for you. I also found it can be sterilised with microwave bags (which I’m gonna purchase next) as it will be handy for on the go pumping/ expressing.

Superb product, works very well, worth every penny. Pros far outweigh the cons, every bit as good as the hospital grade pumps for €1k+ Cons - you can’t bend over (to pick something up) while wearing as they will spill. The App is not great but that’s a minor thing, I didn’t buy it for the app and it’s not required. If it came with a second set of cups it would be great as it’s a pain having to clean and sterilize after each use as I’m expressing every 4 hours for twins.

Very happy with this pump so far. It has been a lifesaver for a tricky start to feeding - building supply via triple feeding. Pros: Battery life is decent and it recharges pretty quickly using a usb 2 cable that I have around the house anyway. It's pretty portable - the motor part is fairly small and not too heavy. You can put it in a large pocket or use the neck strap. The collection shells are easy to take apart, clean and sterilise. It's possible to use this and also hold your baby (although you have to have them on your lap or at hip level so you don't bash the cups). I have found it relatively comfortable to use with the addition of flange inserts that are sized to my nipples - would strongly suggest this. You can buy a measuring tool and inserts on Amazon for not much money. - You can easily adjust the level to make sure you're comfortable but also maximise output. - In terms of output I get a similar amount with this as I do with the plug in, hospital grade Symphony that I hired direct from Medela (I was advised to do this by a lactation consultant as I wanted to build up my milk supply following a very tricky start to feeding). I much prefer this on the whole to the old fashioned, plug in version, as I can be sitting anywhere or getting on with a few light tasks around the house when using it. Cons: - It can sometimes be tricky to get the collection cups in the right place. A couple of times I've come to the end of my 20 mins and just realised I haven't got anything on one side, which is demoralising! - If your bra is too tight it can be uncomfortable. If your bra is too loose the shells can move and leak! - I sometimes find it uncomfortable to take the cups out as it's easy to catch a sore nipple with the underside of the shell, where it has the ridge for it to stand upright. Be careful! - Usually a bit of milk remains stuck in the "hole" of the flange rather than going into the body of the cup. There's a knack to taking them off and pouring them to avoid spilling this bit. It was a little depressing to lose even a small amount in the early days, as every drop was precious when I was first starting to build my supply. - the buttons on the motor part are touch sensitive (apart from on/off). This means they're easy to knock or press accidentally which I don't like. I'd rather have a physical button. - It makes a little chiming noise when switching on, off, or plugging into charge. I think this is ok but now have to be careful using at night now my baby is older as the noise can wake her. It would be good to be able to switch this off. - I thought I would check how much replacement shells are as thought it would be useful to have a spare set so I don't have to wash as frequently. They're about £75 on the Medela website which seems very expensive for two pieces of hard plastic and one piece of silicone. - I used the app for the first week or so but on the whole I found it crashed and lagged too much. You also can't log pumping with another pump which didn't work for me. Went back to using huckleberry. On the whole - expensive but you get what you pay for. Recommended for someone who will be doing a lot of pumping rather than occasional use.

Best pump ! But for the all these months it was in the baby water with the other bottles and I can’t tell if that’s where things went wrong?My pump is ruined after 6 months and I’m completely devastated. The yellow thing feels so lose and it’s frustrating because I’ve been stopped from breastfeeding and I’m just engorged at 1am in pain with a pump that doesn’t work. I can’t reach anyone in the team to get a replacement and I obviously can’t afford a new one but I really really am so downcast at this point.

love this pump, I know it’s expensive but well worth the money for the quality and convenience of pumping. I refer to it as the Ferrari of feeding which I truly believe. Some of the great points are- -easy to clean (only to sterilise once daily) -easy to store (popped in a zip locker bag. YET a branded storage bag would be ideal) -not painful at all -easy instructions -easy to assemble -great that you can wear it on the go (pumped whilst in the car NOT DRIVING!) -comes with a charger and cable (longer cable would be great but still does the job) Yet I imagine Ferrari even has things to change… - when I don’t have pockets, I have to attach the machine to my waistband with a clip. I also do this when in my pocket in case it falls -the buttons are really sensitive. When pumping a few times I activate different buttons with my leg. A lock function or click buttons I think would be better. In the grand scheme of things if you use this product with 2 babies- it’s half price! This will be stored for me and used again for sure.

Lo uso con il tiralatte swing e la tenuta è perfetta, inoltre sono utilissime per conservare il latte in frigorifero e sono pienamente compatibili anche con la tettarella calma che è quella che uso attualmente. Sono sterilizzabili facilmente negli sterilizzatori da microonde o attraverso la bollitura, La tenuta del cappuccio è perfetta non cade nemmeno una goccia neanche quando sono soggette a sollecitazioni e portate all'interno dello zaino nel passeggino. In generale ottime per portare in giro il latte in ogni occasione.

Compré este paquete que trae 3 botellas-biberón, de 150ml cada una, y además compramos también el paquete que trae 2 botellas de 250ml, de la misma marca. Son los que usamos en casa y estamos muy contentos con ellos. Las botellas vienen con tapones de rosca, que las cierra completamente para conservar la leche y que cuentan con una pequeña tapita extraíble que deja abierto el agujero para introducir la tetina. El paquete no incluye tetinas. Son compatibles con todas las tetinas medela (de silicona de boca estrecha, tetina calma). Nosotros usamos las de boca estrecha de la marca Nuk, porque son las únicas que admite nuestra hija. Creo que las tetinas de boca estrecha de Dr. Browns también sirven para estos biberones. Se pueden utilizar perfectamente con el sacaleches medela swing. En las fotos aparece un biberón con una tetina Nuk puesta y concretamente esa botella ha tenido ya más de un mes de uso. Aparte de las señales típicas de haber pasado por esterilizador y múltiples lavados con escobilla, se conserva en muy buenas condiciones y la seguimos utilizando, por lo que podemos decir tras comprobarlo, que estos productos son de calidad y seguros. Respecto al envío del producto, nos llegó rápido y debidamente empaquetado. Volveremos a repetir compra.

This is a great product not only for storing milk but also for feeding as it’s compatible with the Pigoen standard bottle teats. Great for traveling and feeding on the go as well as for transporting milk.
