Great Pump

I ordered this on pump and accessories and I'm glad I did! The pump is quiet and good suction. The accessories are nice. I use the bag to store my machine when not in use or if I need to bring it with me, it's convenient.

An okay pump on the go

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a gift card for my honest review on this product.
I have received this pump through my insurance company and it was not the main pump that I have used. I really wanted to try it because of ability to pump while freely moving around the house. However I did not love it even though I wanted to. I didn't like that it doesn't have a screen so that you can see the pattern, suction strength and pumping time. Also it would not save the setting from the last session and you start with the default setting, which is not a big deal however would be a nice function personally for me. Also I wish that the pumps buttery itself would be chargeable instead of a battery adaptor that you have to connect to the pump and insert the batteries into, which would make wearing pump on you(if you are planning to move around like I did) even bulkier. Again not a deal breaker however there are plenty of pumps out there with exactly those features.
Also, it says that the pump turns off by default after 30 min of pumping time, I did not find it to be true, sometimes it would be 30 min, other times would be longer.
Overall it's not a terrible pump if it's your backup and not the main pump. I would not recommend it as your main pump, there are much better options even within Medela family of pumps.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best pump
on May 23, 2022
Posted by: Kendall
from Hartselle, AL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my pump for almost a year, and it still works perfectly! My family is a Medela family, and they all have said how much they wish this had been available when they were pumping. I bought this specific pump because I was going to an amusement park and knew I needed a pump that was battery powered. Little did I know just how convenient it would be! I love my MaxFlow; I highly recommend it to any moms, but especially moms constantly on the go!

The more you know

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before I begin, I received a gift card for my honest review on this product. I’ve got mixed emotions when it comes to the pump, some of which is no fault of the pump though. 1. I wish I knew there were some options that connect via Bluetooth to the Medela app, that would have been amazing to take advantage of, but using the app manually to track my pump sessions is great too. 2. Sometimes it works better than others, resulting in more milk or less milk and more pain or less pain. 3. I recently bought extra accessories and they don’t work, can’t get suction, very disappointing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to splurge a little for my second child and it was so worth it! Easy to use! Works well! And I can tell a difference! When I am at home I use my old pump and it does not work as well! I will never go back! “I received a gift card for my honest review on this product.”

Simple to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pump is simple to use- I like that it is easy to take out of the bag and you can carry it around without the bag. It also has great suction.
Dislikes- needs more flange accessories- comes with 21,24. It would be nice it if came with a flange in all size so you can try before ordering a bunch in wrong size. Ie 27
Also slightly noisier compared to my previous medela pump.
