Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump 2009 with Carry All Bag and Comfort Gel Hydrogel Soothing Breast Pads - BPA Free

 (6 customer reviews)

I used this pump for both of my children, a total of about 12 months of use. It helped up fantastic for the first 6-7 months, then I started having problems. I noticed that if the plastic liner/diaphragm between the hose and the cup got wet (for instance if it had a few droplets left on it from washing) it would get very easily stuck to the side wall and I would lose suction. The machine would get stuck in an "on" cycle and pump very hard until I removed my breast and dried the diaphragm. I also had one instance where it went into a very different suction cycle, sucked milk up above the cone where your breast goes, and actually the milk went through the hose. This obviously is not supposed to happen, because the hose leads directly into the mechanics of the machine and could damage the pump. Overall, it worked fantastic for the first six months before the problems started.

I have been very happy with my Ameda Purely Yours breast pump. After using it daily for three months, I have found it easy to use and quick to clean, dependable and efficient. I love that the pumping tubes never touch the breast milk, and the bottles are compatible with my Dr. Brown's bottle nipples, so I never have to transfer the milk. It's a big step up from a manual pump without breaking the bank!

This product is a boon for working woman. Now I have been using this for a month regularly.

Pros:- This is very easy to understand and use product.
6 bottles provided with the pack.
Decent Bag to hold all the stuffs together.
Fridge magnet for quick information.

Cons:-
Only improvement I feel is that they could have provided with more cycle and suction options.
Also if the sound of the piston device should be minimised.
The quantity print on the bottle starts diminishing after first wash.
