I am a full time working mom and this is my third time around with the Avent manual breast pump, and I could not be happier! During the past 4 years I have tried several (and researched several more) manual and electric pumps with the hopes of breasfeeding each child for at least 1 year each. I can honestly say that this pump is far superior to anything else out there. I also want to express to anyone who is considering breasfeeding and has not done it in the past that, along with a stellar pump, you are going to need a stellar support system and some tips. When you are in the hospital for the birth of your child, DO NOT let anyone tell you that your milk has not come in and give your baby a bottle; this has happened to a lot of people I know and this theory is completely false! Also, I have noticed that some women say that breasfeeding hurts. In this situation, proper latching on is key. If your child is having a hard time, don't give up--it absolutely gets easier. Talk to a lactation consultant in the hospital or anywhere else and you will get the help you need. To keep the pain away in the first week or two, continuously use pure lanolin provided by the hospital (or get some at any superstore). I have read in some reviews (of different/previous models of pumps) that pumping hurts; again, this is where the lanolin helps. Consider the fact that when your baby is nursing, his/her mouth is wet--your nipples need to be moisturized with the lanolin before you pump to avoid discomfort. Another tip is, if you are going to work and intend to pump, start building a supply of milk in the freezer a couple of weeks before you leave the home. The best way to do this is to pump one breast while the baby nurses on the other. It is possible to get 4-8 ounces (or more if you like) a day in reserve. I have found that this also helps keep my supply up when I am back at work. Lastly, it really is important to pump at work as often as you can. I know it is "inconvenient," but your results will be so much more successful; I know results vary for everyone, but I am able to express about 18 ounces a day by pumping 3 times per day. And we aren't nursing our kids for the sake of convenience, but to truly nourish our children. The time passes so quickly and I guarantee that you will not regret your efforts. Good luck and best wishes to you and your family! I know that you will love this pump.
The BEST manual pump out there. February 28, 2009

I used this breast pump for 2 of my babies and it works great. I went back to work in December and pumped 2 times a day and it worked great. I switched to a double electric pump and my milk supply started to decrease. I switched right back to the Avent manual and the milk was expressed quickly and my supply bounced right back. I LOVE this product so much I bought two, so I could pump both breasts at the same time at work! I've been using it for at least 3 months now and won't go electric again. It can be a little tiring to manual pump 2 times a day, but my new little guy is worth it!
good manual pump when it isn't broken, crappy service October 4, 2009

Perfect. Helps with relieving blocked ducts. I've been breastfeeding 9 months, and bought this after I went back to work so that I could have a pump at home and leave my Medela electric at work. This is great to pump before bedtime, and in case my son does not empty both breasts in the AM. Like other reviewers say, you can maintain suction on this by holding the lever (unlike the electric pump I use that cycles suction). I wish I had this months ago to take on trips, etc. Does not fit the smaller opening bottles (like Medela bottles). Comes with a few spare parts, which is great. Love it.
November 16: the pump body broke. I'm not sure why; just snapped where the handle fits. I called Avent, and they are sending me a replacement. The customer service was friendly. Hope it gets here soon.
December 16: Still not here. I don't care what the problem is, at this point; they should have just sent me a whole new one if they didn't have a part to replace it with. It's a BREASTPUMP. I wouldn't own it if I didn't need to use it. I won't buy from Avent again. I am very disappointed.
Easy to use and strong September 19, 2009

I love this pump- have used it with all three kids. It is easy to use and easy to clean. I have used it both as a stay at home mom and as a working mom. I highly, highly recomment it.
