Practical and useful
on July 21, 2023
Posted by: Smidglet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the hands free feature that these collection cups offer. I did find that the cups were a little hard to put together and get apart as it has a nice snug fit. I haven't experienced any leakage using the cups and the pump is still just as efficacious as with the parts that came with the pump.
I love that I'm able to care for my kids while pumping, the freedom that a wearable pump gives is amazing.
Thank you to the Stellar Product testing panel for allowing me to test this product in exchange for my honest review.

Great upgrade to the hands free cups
on July 21, 2023
Posted by: Leah
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these cups to test as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I had previously used the cups that came with my Medela hands free pump and these had the same great features but were even easier to assemble. They are very lightweight and hold a lot of milk compared to other brands’ hands-free cups I’ve tried. I love how easy it is to pour expressed milk into bags through the opening at the top of the cup, so I don’t end up spilling and wasting milk. Lastly, these are so easy to clean and assemble with just three parts and no small pieces that are easy to lose in the dishwasher.
I will say that the shape of these is rather large so they fit a little awkwardly in certain bras, but that is to be expected when you’re looking for a wearable cup with high capacity. Despite this I was still able to move around and do basic chores while wearing these. You also have to be careful not to bend over as there is a hole in the top of the cup and your milk will leak out if you bend over too much, so doing laundry or playing with the kids can be tricky when wearing these.

Comfortable

Posted by: Mani
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These cups have made pumping milk, so much easier and convenient. I can be totally hands-free and walk about my house doing chores. Or even if I’m not doing chores. They’re super easy to clean and don’t have a million parts That I need to wash and sterilize every time. They’re comfortable and don’t really irritate or burn my skin.
I received these from the Stellar Panel to try.

A must have for busy moms
on July 22, 2023
Posted by: MommyOnTheMove
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Mendela hands free collection cup is just the thing I have been waiting for!! The collection cups are made from light weight but sturdy plastic and comes with two different phalange sizes (21mm and 24mm). It only has three parts and super easy to sanitize. The O ring can be removed but does not need to be removed during washing. There aren’t any nooks or crannies that require a straw brush to clean. I also love that it fits nicely into every nursing bra/ sports bra that I have. It is truly hands free. I can continue to work/ type, attend Zoom meetings and do chores while pumping. Having the motor being external allows the pump to have much stronger suction. It takes me significantly less time to finish pumping. Because the collection cups are clear, it is easy to see and center the nipple in the phalange and check the milk volume. My only minor complaint is that the seal is so good that it can sometimes be tricky to open especially when wet. This is a must-have for busy moms. Thank you so much Stellar for sending this for me to try out.

SO Comfortable and convenient
on July 22, 2023
Posted by: busymum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela Hands-free Collection Cups are an effective addition to my routine for pumping convenience. They are very easy to assemble and a breeze to clean/sanitize with minimal parts. The cups are comfortable, lightweight and easy to wear. The clear design makes it simple for me to see the fit is correct and the amount of milk I am expressing. I love that I am able to plug and pump, multitasking without worry in confidence. I highly recommend to all breastfeeding mommas! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with the Medela Hands-free Collection Cups to test and review.

Hands Free Medela Collection Cups
on July 22, 2023
Posted by: HandsFree
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Medela hands free collection cups from stellar panel at no charge to try out. Let me start by saying I have the Medela Pump in Style with Maxflow that I received through my insurance from the hospitals where I delivered. These collection cups were super easy to sterilize and wash before use and were extremely easy to put together. All due to the fact that they come with only 3 parts to assembling process versus the original Medela collection bottles and flanges. Another great thing is that it came with two different size flanges, but not super huge ones! It came with the standard size 24 but then also a size 21. Which is amazing because I already had to buy inserts to make the flange smaller for my standard flanges. The pumping sessions were so much easier as I had nothing sticking out of my bra and I was able to hold and cuddle my infant while pumping without issues. I absolutely loved these and also love that they are compatible with all Medela breast pumps due to the small/short extension adapter to attach to your normal suction tubing. I would 110% recommend these!

This pump provides convenience in so many ways
on July 22, 2023
Posted by: Rc522
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These hands free cups were amazing and allowed me to pump when otherwise I wouldn't have been able to. Having three kids I don't have much time to sit down and pump. Time is a luxury in our house, and these cups allowed me to multitask. I could do laundry, do the dishes and so much more. I'm so thankful for the convenience.
These cups were super easy to use and seemed to get as much milk if not more than my regular pump. I was surprised at how many oz they hold (5oz) and at how few parts I needed to clean (3 per side). This was so convenient. I was surprised that I didn't have to remove and clean the o-ring each time, but this definitely made it a lot simpler.
It was also super convenient that I could just connect these to my current Medela pump and didn't need additional tubing or another unit. This is an affordable way to make your pump hands free!
Overall, I just loved the way these cups made pumping so much easier in so many different ways - time, cleaning, etc.
Thank you to Stellar Panel for gifting me this product to test!

Collection Cups
on July 22, 2023
Posted by: LaPenn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The madela hands free pump has been a game changer. Life with a baby and other toddlers doesn't give many opportunities to sit around and pump. With these collection cups, you can literally stuff them in, start pumping and continue on with your day. It's really that easy!
I was very pleased to see this kit came with two different size shields. This was awesome, as I am not the "usual" size and normally have to purchase that separately.
Assembly and washing the pieces is VERY easy. Each cup is only three pieces that just snap together in seconds. The only thing to watch out for us to make sure it snaps closed a few times and it's secure all the way around. Twice I didn't notice it wasn't snapped at the top and I started leaking milk a few minutes into my pumping session. Oops!
They are also fairly compact and store well. You can kind of stack them together, unassembled and then the space they take up is minimal.
Thanks stellar panel for another great product!
