MedelaSwing Maxi Hands-Free Breast Pump | Easy, Intuitive, Ideal for On The Go Double Electric Hands Free Breast Pump

Currently 2 1/2 months into nursing and pumping. I’ve been wanting to get a wearable pump for the past couple weeks and after reading reviews for a variety of wearables I finally decided on the swing maxi. Was inclined towards medela due to my great experience with my symphony and this wearable did not disappoint. I’ve only used it for a day now and I already love it, having a wearable has already saved me hours that I’d otherwise be stuck on the couch with my symphony. It feels great to be able to multitask pumping and house chores. I use it for the same amount of time (20-30 mins) and still get my usual 4-5 ounces on each side. I definitely credit my symphony for developing my supply so I don’t know if I’d necessarily recommend this wearable to an exclusively pumping mom or a mom just starting out her breastfeeding journey, but over 2 months in with a strong supply I can confidently recommend this for when supply is established. Didn’t even know medela had an app but I love the Bluetooth feature and being able to track all my pumping sessions by syncing my swing maxi to the app. Also greatly appreciate the simplicity of cleaning with this pump, only three pieces that are straightforward to clean and don’t have a bunch of nooks and crannies to worry about like symphony parts. The only struggle I’ve encountered right away is slight difficulty opening the collection cups but I’m sure over time the pieces won’t be as stiff. Very glad it came with 21mm inserts too, I would’ve ordered them separately if the pump only came with 24mm so nice touch to include a smaller size. Overall great product, strongly recommend to anyone on the fence!!

I've only had this for two days but it's been a lifesaver. I had another portable set that I got with insurance, and they were so bulky I couldn't move without them falling out of place and spilling. With these, I can do chores, walk around, be a person around my house instead of a milk machine! Also, the pieces you need to clean are so easy, and you don't have to deal with loose silicone pieces everywhere like with other pumps. I am so glad I made this purchase! I was worried about pumping when I go back to work but I think this pump is going to do really well!

Sounds like a cellphone vibrating on glass or metal. People will look at you weird. Your not going to be wearing this in church or in a meeting.Bottom has sharp edge that digs in under boob.the pump its self hanging from the lanyard is bulky and inconvenient. If that was the only problem it would pass.My wife put this on for maybe 10 min and took it off because it wasn't working and uncomfortable.

This is an AWESOME product and it’s so easy to use! It’s very convenient and efficient. I am a mom of a 17 month old and a new born and this breast pump really saves me so much time. With two tiny little ones I very rarely have time to sit and hold a pump to my chest. I can wear this breast pump and go on about my business tending to my little ones. It empties my chest (both) in about 30 minutes and is not painful at all. If you are struggling with trying to maintain a pumping schedule and care for your little ones, this is the ideal product for you. Prior to purchasing this pump, my pumping sessions took up to an hour because I had to pump one at a time. I could’ve pumped both at the same time but then both of my hands would be tied for 30+ minutes. As you know, with little ones we can’t afford to be without a free hand. What I like most is that the pump is only about 3 pieces so it’s not much to wash when finished. It’s portable and comes with an arm sling to wear around. Many pros to this product!

I went in to this purchase not expecting to love the pump or get a significant amount of milk from it due to it being a mobile battery powered device. However I was proven wrong and would recommend this device to anyone looking for more freedom during their pumping journey. I am a NICU Mom who exclusively pumps. This wearable pump allows me to follow my 2 year old around while keeping up the supply for our 3 month old. I just returned to work and use this pump on my commute to and from work. I get the same or more amount of milk as I would with my pump in style pump. This is a game changer for me and has alleviated some of the stress that comes with managing a full time work schedule, two kids and a pump schedule. As others mentioned you definitely want to be careful when you bend not to spill milk but you would have to be completely bent over for that to happen. I have not had any leaks or spills as of now and I’ve been using the pump for 2 weeks now 2x a day.

For a hands-free pump this has pretty good suction and I can get a pretty good flow. However, only 3 stars bcuz it’s extremely hard to open and I don’t really like how they suction my nipple as they are hard to see and to get on the correct spot. Although handy as a hands-free, the pump is kind of heavy to carry around my neck so I have to be wearing pockets large enough to place it into. Also, some of the pictures are deceiving as this devise is NOT able to be hidden to be able to use it shopping as is shown in one of the manufacture pictures. It’s very obvious that you have a pump under your bra. If your okay with that, then you could take it out :) Overall, I like this pump, but just those few minor inconveniences.
