Good product.Mar 04, 2010 Physician and mother of a 5 year-old and 7 month-old. I used the double pump-in-style advanced for both kids (until 10 months for the 1st and so far 7 months for the second) and love it. We went on vacation without my pump a few months ago. My baby got hand-foot-mouth virus, with blisters in her mouth and stopped nursing for 2 days, and the store where we were only had this Swing pump, so I decided to try it. It works great, is lightweight and compact. It's a bit pricy, but cheaper than the double PIS advanced. For me, it's a nice back-up pump and great to bring on vacations. I've had it for about 3 months now and probably use it about once a week. I still use my PIS advanced for my everyday, at work, etc. Would still recommend the PIS advanced for any working mom who is serious about nursing for at least 6 months, but for the part-time worker or stay at home mom, or for a back-up to the PIS advanced, the Swing is perfect.
Milk gets sucked up the tube!Feb 23, 2010 At first I loved this new pump -- it seemed to work much better and more efficient than my really old hand-me-down pump in style. However, that being said, it has been only a few weeks and it feels like it is harder and harder to get milk out.
Also, more importantly, milk consistently gets sucked up the tubing. I hold the horn/bottle upright and keep the motor/pump higher than the bottle but for whatever reason my milk refuses to go down the correct passageway to the bottle. The horn is incredibly annoying since (unlike the older version) you can't even see what the heck is in there (parts are yellow plastic). I don't know if I have a bad horn or if I'm doing something wrong (I have NEVER had this problem with my pump in style).
I'm sad that I dropped about 150 on this and it isn't all that great. I wish the baby market were a bit more reasonable....
Clean up hassleFeb 08, 2010 I started pumping in earnest everyday for since January when i returned to work. The pump works well however the condensation in the tube which sounded like an exception in the instructions happened from the first and every pumping session since and it is a real hassle to dry out. i dont even bother to try to dry it anymore. And milk gets sucked into the tube occasionally for no reason. That is a real hassle to clean and it wets the battery compartment. Those are design flaws Medela should work on. Other than that it pumps fast enough (15 mins per breast excluding stimulation phase)and is painless.
Great ProductFeb 07, 2010 I almost drove myself crazy trying to research breast pumps. But time after time I came back to the Medela swing as the best for my situation. I didn't have a ton of money to spend, but was still looking for quality and I definitely found it. The pump is quiet, convenient, and very effective. I would recommend this product to anybody. The only downfall is that you can only pump one side at a time, but even that isn't a huge issue.
Excellent pump in affordable price!Feb 02, 2010 I bought this pump after I spend $150 for AVENT ISIS which was HORRIBLE! When I used The Medela Swing for the first time, it was just Ok to me...I was like: oh, I could get the same amount of milk at the same time using manual AVENT (this one was a great pump I must say that). But after I used it multiple times over the 3 days, I must say: IT WORKS GREAT! I can get 6oz milk in just 20 minutes!!! Give this pomp chance! Your breast need a couple of session with it to start working out! I am so pleased and really recommand this one. I am a first time mom, and when I bought this product I just liked it. Now, I LOVE IT! Pls, don't buy electric AVENT pump - it is a junk! Very pour suction. Didn'work for me at all. I could get just 1oz in 25 minutes.
