 Very good product.Mar 05, 2010
I used it through out my nursing period for my second child. The best part is I dont have to depend on battery or electricity while using this and also the sound it makes is much lower than the battery operated one or the electric one.
I loved it. Only that I needed to replace it atleast 3times and the cost was a killer.
 Great travel pump!Feb 25, 2010
My husband bought this pump for me so I could sustain my milk while we were traveling. I was afraid I would dry up while being away from our baby. This pump is awesome! Great for traveling: relatively small, easy to put together and take apart, easy to clean and easy to use.
I made the mistake the first couple of times of pumping constantly which was a bit taxing on my hand and wrist. Then I figured out you don't have to do all that and that once your milk comes in, you can just have one continuous pump which extracts quite a bit of milk before you have to make the pumping motion again (if you're not sure what I mean, just read the directions and you'll get it.) It will save your hand and wrist a lot of trouble!
I strongly recommend this for moms that aren't able to use an electric pump. I have both but when I'm on the go, this pump is perfect.

Works well, but probably cannot replace the electric pump..Feb 13, 2010
I have a Medela Pump in Style and also used the hospital grade Medela Symphony. I read reviews on the Medela manual pump and many people commented that it replaced their electric pumps but I disagree. The manual pump worked well, but it is tiring on the hands. It pumped decent amount milk.
The kit came with all the parts shown in the picture plus a nipple and bottle cap. I didn't like the nipple; it was too soft and the milk flow was too fast for my 2 week old. My two week old actually choked on too much milk. I use Avent nipples and I like how the rubber is stiffer; it's conducive to strengthening jaw muscles.
Overall, I think the Medela manual pump is a good complement to a faster electric pump. It's good when you're outside.

 SUCKS-- or doesn't suck-- depends on how you look at it!Jan 26, 2010
Bought this despite the mixed reviews because I wanted something that was quiet (when I travel for work events, I have to pump in the bathroom half the time and get very self conscious about the noise) and something easy to travel with. Well, I tried using it yesterday and it was HORRIBLE. I could have gotten more milk by hand expressing so I was out of town all day with no pump and no baby. By the end of the night when I got home, I was in so much pain. I will take the noisy efficiency of my Medela Freestyle over the Harmony any day.

more milk than manually.
