1 out of 5 stars very poor quality...such a disappointment!   October 3, 2008
Dennis C. Lim (Philippines)
I'm very disappointed with this product. Playtex is a good brand. My son's bottles are all playtex so I expected this pump to be of high quality as well. Unfortunately, it is not so. The pistons, including the spare, broke in two months time. Though I get enough milk whenever I pump, the noise that i make while doing it is quite annoying. It's like I have a frog beside me while i pump milk. Definitely cannot use it while your baby is sleeping.


1 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, poorly quality   August 5, 2008
C. Price (Fort Gratiot, MI)
When I bought this pump, at first I liked the comfort and feel of it. That was very short lived. In a matter of just two weeks, I had two piston assemblys break, then after replacing that, the handle broke completely in two! This pump was not abused or misused at all. My daughter was weaning at the time so it was only used 2-3 times per day for maybe a month and that's pushing it. Very disappointing product. Would not recommend this at all.


1 out of 5 stars Cheap- This pump is not worth the money at all!   July 11, 2008
E. Abreu (Miami, FL)
At first I was thrilled with this pump. I'm a first time mom and I tried the Medella Swing and it stopped working after a few months. I decided to try out a manual pump and bought this one. I was very pleased because it actually worked better than the electric pump and just as well as the Medella hospital grade symphony. The problems started after a few pumps. I started to quickly notice that this pump was cheap and would break soon. It did- less than a month later! It just broke because of the cheap plastic it's made of. What a disappointment and waste of money! Also, like the other customer said, there are a lot of pieces to take a part in order to clean it properly and it is noisy. and- it does leak every time you unscrew- more waste of milk after you work so hard to pump it out!

This is so disappointing especially since I'm a working mother and have to go out and buy another pump tonight for my daughter to feed tomorrow! Alhamdulilah!

Pros: I love the bottles and liner though! They don't spill.



1 out of 5 stars Terrible pump - don't waste your money   March 26, 2008

This pump was terrible. I am a first time mom, and I hated this pump. I bought it thinking that the convenience of pumping into bags and putting them straight into the freezer then popping them straight into a bottle would be great. But the pump doesn't actually pump. It does on occasion, but not enough to efficiently pump at all. There are a lot of very small pieces that you have to take off every time you pump to clean it too. It was also noisy (rackety). I couldn't pump in the same room as my baby, it would wake him up every time. I suggest to get any other pump that you are comfortable with (I went with a nice yellow one) and then get the breast milk storage kit if you still want to pump into the liners, The kit has attachments that fit nearly all breast pumps and you can still pump into liners with any other pump. This pump was a total waste of money!!!

Thanks for shopping with us!
