Pumping Simplified!
on August 6, 2023
Posted by: Ms K
from Montréal, QC
I received this breast pump accessory from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I am very impressed with their performance! The cups are very easy to wash and sterilize, having only three parts when washing since not needing to remove the O-ring each time. They also reassemble quickly and easily!
Milk easily pours out of them into storage bags or bottles from the little hole at the top.
I used the hands free collection cups along with my Medela Pump in Style pump, the experience was relatively the same as with the other collection bottles, but now hands free! I was a little apprehensive about using the hands free collection cups having larger breasts and lots of milk production. I was concerned about a good suction and the cups leaking, this was not an issue at all! The cups did not leak, aside from a little bit left inside the flanges at the end of pumping. The cups suction on well, and don’t move during the pumping time. They avoid the drips I was experiencing having to hold the bottles and not always being completely still. The cups fit in most of my nursing bras / tank tops, allowing two hands free for tending to baby, prepping dinner, whatever it may be!
Overall, I am very satisfied with the hands free collection cups and would recommend them! If you were looking for a more and mobile hands free experience, I would likely suggest using along with one of Medela’s smaller chargeable more portable pumps. However, the Pump in Style still
Offered a hands free solution for a busy mom!

Great product

I received these cups through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and they have been so helpful. With 3 kids under 4 and a husband that is always working, they've been so helpful in allowing me to multitask throughout my day. Whether it's pumping while cooking, or pumping while taking them all for a walk, they allow me to continue with my daily activities and give my kids all the attention they need without having to stop and sit down to pump for 15-20 minutes each time. It's simply 3 pieces to assemble, with easy and fast cleaning and you don't even need to take out the O ring while washing. I will say I wasn't getting as much as I would from my regular pump, with which I use my hand to help manipulate the different milk pockets, but still very pleased with the effectiveness and time they have saved me! I Highly recommend this product for anyone looking for ways to be more time effective!

Take Back Time

The Medela Hands-free Collection Cups give you more time to do the things you want to do. Maybe that’s washing the dishes, cleaning the house, or doing your laundry but personally, it’s reading a good book with a glass of wine! As a breastfeeding mom with little free time, I found this breast pump accessory easy to use, comfortable without compromising performance, discreet, and best of all, portable. I loved the silicone O-ring that was added to this product to create a tight seal, making sure every drop of breast milk is captured when pumping and pouring into storage containers. The cherry on top is that the cups are dishwasher-safe! Also, this product is so easy to pop in a travel bag and go. With my Freestyle Flex parts, I was constantly forgetting something but with these, I just need the cups, my pump, and storage bags. They made the perfect travelling companion for our vacation this summer. My only advice to any new users would be to read the instructions carefully to ensure you have the silicone O-ring correctly installed before using as this is needed to ensure a tight seal. Disassembling the cups also takes a bit of practice but is easy enough to master. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with my new favourite breast pump accessory!

Makes pumping easy!

First off, I was given the Hands-free collection cups to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I'm so thankful for the experience to try them out! Overall, I love these collection cups and would recommend them to anyone who exclusively pumps or who pumps here and there. I have never loved pumping, mainly because I had to change out of my nursing bra and put on a pumping bra and then configure all the different parts and then sit down to pump. The hands-free collection cups fit perfectly in my nursing bra and are so easy to slip in. It's also easy to look to make sure that your nipple is suctioning correctly. The collection cups don't spill if you lean over or move like the normal flange system does. The hands-free collection cups have 3 parts, making cleaning very easy and quick. At first I found the collection cups hard to click together and had a few leaks because of it, but overtime I've gotten the hang of it. The suction seems similar to my 'normal' medela cups. I also love that you don't have to go and hide when pumping in public. My t-shirt fits easily back over the pump in my bra which also makes pumping way more convenient. It no longer feels like a big task!

Easy to use

Hands free collection cups have become such a popular item among moms whom don’t wish to feel confined to a chair to pump. These hands free collectors gave me the freedom to hold my busy toddler as i cooked supper, or folded laundry, to drive him to daycare without worry of the flange regular pump shifting off or leaking that liquid gold.
The benefits were endless when it came to giving myself the freedom to pump to be a mother and helpful partner.
Cleaning them was my first worry, however, the simplicity in the parts to clean was so easy! The last thing any mother wants to do after a long day is clean multiple pieces of a pump and flanges in the evening. This was so easy to rinse to clean and fully dry before next use. These have become the best part of my pumping journey!
The only downfall i felt with these cups were they did not fit well in a standard nursing bra.
I appreciate the opportunity to use these cups on behalf of Stella panel.

Great to be hands free

I was so lucky received the hands free collection cups through the Stellar product testing panel! Pumping is likely not ever fun, or something I’d enjoy doing, but the fact that these cups made it easy for me to do other things while pumping (dishes, text, scroll instagram.. and write this review!) since I was completely hands free really helped. The bonus was being super easy to disassemble, clean, and reassemble, so the entire pumping process didn’t take longer than it needed to.

Amazing Hands-Free Experience
on August 6, 2023

As a first-time mom, the hands-free collection cups, along with my double electric breast pump has changed my life. I no longer need to set aside time to pump, but can do it throughout the day. This hands-free option has given me back a significant amount of time in my day and I can comfortably move around the house and ultimately spend more quality time with my baby.
The cups itself are very easy to assemble with minimal parts. It was nice not having to remove the O-ring every time I washed it and was wide enough to thoroughly clean. It’s also designed very nicely to fit under my clothes. It’s shockingly lightweight and compact enough to carry in my diaper bag. I was also surprised that it has been effective and efficient at pumping my milk. The only issue I faced was in transferring milk to bottle - sometimes getting a little spillage.
The best feature of these cups are that it truly allowed for a hands-free experience and I love that it’s comfortable to wear.

I mostly wear this product at home, however, I am very excited to take this pump with me when I travel as it can be quite discreet when paired with the right clothes. It is fairly quiet for a pump but would love it to be truly silent for additional discretion.
Overall, this accessory is great!

100% recommend, hands free is a dream!

I found these cups great. I definitely have to take the O ring out every time to ensure a thorough clean. Having the extra cups, I just soak them for 5-10 min and it’s a non-issue. Maybe if you didn’t have to exclusively pump you’d find this to be an issue. But given that I don’t have the option to breastfeed, this pump/cups are a dream through and through. I found them effective and easy to use/clean. I often pump on the go, during errands/groceries. I personally don’t mind if people hear the sound of the pump. I feel like it’s no different from breast feeding in public. Baby needs to eat. I recently used it at the safari this week, and besides the sound no one would be the wiser. I received both the pump and extra cups with O ring from Stellar Reviews in exchange for my honest review. A bit on the pricey side for the additional cups, but it makes it more convenient/easier to have the extra set.
