Great pump for moms on the go!
on December 5, 2019
Posted by: MazieLynn547

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela Freestyle Flex Pump is great for moms on the go! The freedom to pump in the car, while getting ready in the morning, and even while washing dishes gives this pump a leg up on the competition. With its USB charging cable and compact size, this pump is super easy to keep charged up for portable daily use. The display is bright and intuitive making it easy to multitask while also staying aware of pumping progress. This pump has many helpful features; I only wish it would remember the last vacuum level used. The updated membrane with an integrated valve cut my washing time in half. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this pump.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Handheld and easy to use Pump!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for my honest review and feedback through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Medela has made a pump that does not require carrying around a big battery pack type back pack- which is great! I stick the unit in my pocket and can continue doing dishes or whatever I need to. As you can see in the picture, the unit is pretty small and can fit in your hand! The battery lasts a long time, too. The suction cups stay in place and are pretty easy to clean. Medela makes everything else you need to feed baby with too, so it makes the transition from pumping to feeding easy, too. For mommas that like to use phone apps, they offer a tracking app to record how much and often you are pumping. A good product made better!

Finally something to put Mom's mind at ease

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this pump from Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review and im so incredibly glad i did. I am a experienced mom (3 older ones) with a newborn so ive used my fair share of breast pumps over the years but I've never used one that was so easy to use and convenient and non stressful. I'm not stressed about making sure that I have everything I need for travels everything is in a very light weight convenient and easy to use carrying bag. And the battery lasting for up to two hours and being USB rechargeable is amazing and makes my life so much easier. Not having to find a plug to plug it in puts my mind at ease and lets me focus more baby and her needs
I would recommend this to a friend!

The BEST compact pump!
on December 5, 2019
Posted by: Chouser77
from Oklahoma City, OK
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a pumping and nursing mom for more than four years over multiple children, I have used many breast pumps. The Freestyle Flex is absolutely my new favorite. It is so compact, light, and easy to toss in my purse on the way out the door. But don’t let the size fool you, this machine is powerful. I was able to pump more expressed milk than I had been previously, and I loved how easy this unit was to use. The flanges are more oval shape than round, which gave a more natural fit. The pump came with a nice bag that has more than enough room to hold the pump, all accessories, plenty of storage bottles or bags, and even came with a cold pack to help you really have flexibility to pump wherever you wanted. The pump settings worked well for me, and were able to mimic a nursing baby for several let downs of milk. I absolutely love that I can charge the pump and use for two hours throughout the day without needing to have electricity or be stuck near a wall outlet. I even pumped in the car! I was so excited to get to try out this breast pump thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I would absolutely recommend this pump to other pumping mothers. It really provide great flexibility and was so easy to use and clean. There are fewer pieces that need to be assembled before pumping, and they were much easier to clean that other membranes because they are larger.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So convenient for on-the-go moms

from Atlanta, GA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela Freestyle Flex is a life saver for busy moms! Pumping for a newborn and chasing a toddler around is no easy task no matter how you look at it, but its do-able with this pump. It's small enough to fit in your pocket, keeps the charge through several pumpings, and just all-around makes life easier. Thank you Stellar Parent Panel for giving me the opportunity to try it out!

A Game Changer
on December 5, 2019
Posted by: Mollee72
from Big Rapids, MI
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Freestyle Flex Pump is a real game changer for me and for my family. I have two active boys under the age of 3, and my 21 month old still needs breast milk because of some health issues and allergies. With children this age, we are constantly on the go, and this pump allows me to discretely pump anywhere! With my wool parka on for privacy, I can pump at the playground, in the car, while vacuuming or making meals, and while playing around the house with my boys. The compact size fits easily into my purse or pocket, and not being tied to a bulky, plugged-in pump mechanism makes life so much easier! This is such a contrast to my pumping experience 3 years ago with my first child when I had to pump plugged into an outlet near the couch every time.
This pump is easy to use and the parts are easy to clean. The carrying bag is discrete, compact, and easily wipes down. Additionally, the ability to charge the pump via USB is convenient and I can also do this in the car! This convenience does not hinder the power or effectiveness of the pump either. It is just as strong and efficient as other pumps I have used in the past. This pump was made for busy mothers! Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this pump!
