In Their Own Words: Actual Users' Reviews of the Medela Advanced Breast Pump

Excellent, Excellent, Excellent - by A. Burch (USA)

"I absolutely LOVE this pump! I plan on breastfeeding my son until he's one and will definitely be using this pump for our next child."

Much better than the original! - by E. Mills (USA)

"Get the advanced model--the two stage pumping process is really helpful. I have to go back and forth between the two stages several times in one pumping session. I'm not sure how well I could have pumped with another model without this feature."

Conclusion

There are certainly more affordable double breast pump models on the market, but perhaps none that have all the features of this one. The Medela Advanced Breast Pump really is the Cadillac of breast pumps - just strap it on and you are ready to travel (and pump, too!).
