Product Rave from 0-3: Avent Pump

I just wanted to say that I love my Avent hand pump.  I haven't used anything else so nothing to compare it to but it has worked so well right from the start.  I just woke up with so much milk in my boobs and a DS who was sound asleep so I started pumping and in less then 5 minutes later had 5 ounces. 

If anyone is in need of a pump - I highly recommend this one.  Aside from the pump itself being so great, their milk storage is reuseable containers that turn into bottles themselves. You don't even need to spend the money on buying so many Avent bottles.

  • I second this!  In fact I am buying another one for this time around, just to have a new and fresh one since I used it so much last time.  They are actually kind of hard to find now, glad she included the link as well :)

  • Excellent, thanks! I have an Ameda Purely Yours electric pump from DD, but I never really liked pumping...this time I wanted a hand pump as well because I thought it would be more useful/convenient for my pumping situations, so I purchased one of these. Glad to see you like it so much!

  • Wow, kind of pricey for a single hand pump! I hadn't even been looking at what the manuals cost, but given that you can get a double electric for $120 bucks I had no idea a single manual would run $80!
  • The electric Isis Duo is on rollback for $182 at walmart right now - got one of these!

    You must be looking at the wrong item.  They cost about $40 and I've seen them go on sale for as little as $25.

  • Oh! Phew! That's much more what I was thinking.
  • I agree with above.  I use an Ameda but got the manual for trips.  I got just as much yield.  Walgreens was selling theirs on clearance for $20 when I was in there. I had planned on buying it anyway based on reviews but that was quite a bargain.
