Great and Portable

This is a great pump! I love medela products and needed a pump after my medela hospital pump experience was great I decided to stick with the brand and I'm glad I did. This pump is just as good as the one I used in hospital but it's portable! I've used it on my commute multiple times no need to plug in but can if you want (which I do when at home to save the battery pack for on the go sessions) I love the flanges that come with, I had to order the 21s but they are very comfortable and don't have an extra piece like other brands that you have to remove to wash and dry, the silicone/soft part is built in.
My baby was born 12 weeks early so my EBF journey I invisioned turned into an EP Journey so for me, my pump really matters and I have no complaints.

Do not recommend

I ordered thus pump through insurance and used it for about 3 weeks. It starts very aggressively, which is hard on sore nipples. I winced every time I pressed the power button. The output I receive is very low compared to another pump I had to start using. One of my connectors broke after 2 weeks. The reviews that I had read were all glowing, but I heard that Medela recently started making this model differently than before, and many have said that the old model was much better. Overall, very disappointing!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This pump is a joke

I got this pump through my insurance for free, and thank goodness I didn’t pay anything, cus it would have been a waste of money. Initially, it worked okay and although I wasn’t super happy with it, I figured I would make it work. Now I’m two months in, and I’m getting a different pump. I spend 30 or 40 minutes on the pump and I’ll be lucky to get just enough for my baby. I tried the Zomee z2 from my sister and I got 7 ounces in 15 minutes. Women deserve a pump that is working as hard as they are, and this piece of garbage is an insult to hard working moms

Beautiful Look but Lackluster Resilts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela Pump in Style with MaxFlow that I received Stellar Product Testing Panel looks awesome, but unfortunately it didn’t work very well for me. I was hardly able to express anything close to what I usually am able to and had to switch to my regular pump. Also, I found the pump to be quiet, but when sitting on the table, the vibration it made against the table was quite noisy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible!

I held out to get this one and it is awful. I used to have the in Style advanced and got rid of it once I got this because it was supposed to be the “newer and better” version. Big mistake. Suction is terrible and doesn’t empty me. Now I’m stuck with this one and my supply is tanking. I should have never gotten rid of the In Style Advanced!

Disappointed

This is a standard pump but less in the way of efficiency. It leaks where the bottle attaches to the pumping device. You must be in the perfect position, with no distractions, or risks that the bottle may be bumped or tipped over when transferring your milk to the fridge or for storage. Having a 2 year old and newborn around while I try to pump is stressful enough with out having to worry about spilling my milk. As one of the more expensive pumps on the market, I am very disappointed in my purchase and would never again purchase or recommend this pump.

Works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second medela pump i have owned. I exclusively pumped for 8 months after my son was born so when i got pregnant again i chose another medela pump. My son was born one week ago and this pump in style has allowed me to keep him well fed and make a strong start to stocking my freezer. Would buy another medela pump if i have another baby one day.
I received a gift card for my honest review on this product.

Great Pump !!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just had my 2nd daughter and I'm experiencing somewhat of an oversupply and this pump was great at emptying my breasts efficiently. It helped me to also build up a stash as I can pump ANYWHERE with the on-the-go accessories! Along with the necessary pump parts, it came with a cooler, ice pack, and carrying case. I was really excited at the fact that this is portable! It can be plugged in or it comes with an adapter that you place batteries in .
I liked the preprogrammed settings but wish it came with a bit more options. It only comes with like a quick suckling feature as when you first introduce the breast or a slower suckling once letdown has happened.
The pump has about 3 parts which makes it pretty easy to clean. It also comes with storage bottles and lids. I havent had any issues with leakeage at all.
The accessories are a great asset to this pump. I was able to pump at the mall and store my milk in the cooler without having to worry about spilling or it spoling early. The ice pack even has grooves it in that kind of hold the bottles still. I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I would definitely recommend this product to others!
