DO NOT BUY. The flanges warp in the steriliser and the company refuse to replace. Wish I read the 1 star comments prior to purchasing as I can see… Read more

many people have this issue.

Horrible customer service! They will not reply to my messages or emails!! has been over 2 weeks. I will never buy from this company again.

Good quality pump. Default flange is large and difficult to wear with a pumping bra, but if you can work around this it is an excellent at home pump. Battery operated model is good if you are at risk of power outage or need to travel. Show details

Fantastic, efficient little unit! – This is my 3rd baby and I'm not new to expressing. I've been using the Medela swing pump for about a week because of a cracked nipple and averaging… Read more

40ml of milk after 30 mins on the single breast. I was gifted the unimom portable pump and the next day, I was able to get 60ml after only 15 minutes. This thing is a gem!

I found the rhythm of sucking different to the Medela swing which I used for baby 1 and 2.

Another added bonus which I only just realised last night is that its portable without needing batteries! Now I dont have to sit in my pumping corner of my bedroom but rather can enjoy Netflix with the rest of the family! Win win!

I'll definitely be taking this unit out when I need to be away from bubs to ensure I'm keeping my milk supply up! Thanks for an amazing product!

night. Tuesday morning it’s cooled down and will work while plugged into the wall.

Customer service can’t help me because it’s outside warranty and “we would expect a battery to decline over time, with or without use I am afraid.”

Let this be your warning! Learn from my mistake, test your products within warranty or just steer clear as you can expect the battery to deteriorate rather quickly.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with the Mumilk breast pump and their customer service. After using the pump exclusively on two… Read more

occasions while travelling, my milk supply - which had previously been an oversupply - completely dried up. This was a drastic and distressing outcome that forced me to abruptly transition my baby to formula.

I contacted Mumilk multiple times explaining the situation in detail. Rather than acknowledging the seriousness of what happened, they repeatedly suggested sending different flange sizes - despite me clearly stating that my breastfeeding journey had already ended due to the loss of supply. At that point, this “solution” was completely irrelevant.

What was most frustrating was their response. They referenced their large number of units sold and overall success, which came across as dismissive and tone-deaf. Instead of addressing my individual experience or offering any meaningful resolution (such as a refund), they effectively hid behind their sales figures and refused to take responsibility.

As a customer, I felt unheard and unsupported during what was already a very emotional situation. I would not recommend this product or this company based on both the product outcome and the lack of genuine customer care.

now pump while moving around and getting things done. The stable base is so clever so you can rest it on a counter without it rolling around. The sealable bottle is a great idea and the suction is just as good (maybe better) as a traditional pump. It is a little loud and there is no timer so it’s easy to over pump but it makes up for that in other ways. Highly recommend.

shape after washing, it becomes difficult to use completely hands free when it has become larger. The marierial is very soft on the skin but does take a little while to dry. it may be that I am "in between" sizes of course but I would definitely recommend buying one.

strength is easily adjustable, and the soft silicone cups provide a gentle, natural feel. I love how quiet it is, making it perfect for late-night or on-the-go pumping. The design is sleek, compact, and super easy to clean and assemble. Overall, it’s a high-quality, reliable pump that saves me time and makes my breastfeeding routine so much easier — I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

Works Perfectly! – I bought this pump on ebay for under $200 and it's been worth every cent. It has great features - rechargeable battery, timer, and the ability to… Read more

pump one or both sides at once. Plus it memorises your settings for next time. It's easy enough to clean and assemble and is really powerful (actually so powerful I have to use it on the lowest setting!) All in all I'm really happy I bought this thing, it has made the laborious task of pumping much faster and more enjoyable. Would recommend!

*Edit - have now used this pump for almost a year of exclusively pumping, 5-8 times per day - so really putting it to use - and it's still working perfectly. The only negative I found is that it is impossible to find replacement parts (valves, membranes etc) if you live in Australia. Luckily I haven't needed to replace anything or I would have had a big problem!

breast feeding as I had an oversupply and appreciated its quick work. I did not experience discomfort and could collect up to 300ml in about 10mins. Now my baby is 10 months my supply is much smaller and I use the pump on a medium setting for the full 30min timer. I haven't used any other pump but do not experience any discomfort. My one wish would be that it was hands free so I don't have to sit clutching two funnels for 30mins!

Worst pump ever – I bought this pump after reading some nice reviews. However, it all proved to be wrong as soon as I started using it. Firstly, difficulty in milk… Read more

expression as it takes a way longer to express milk as compared to a simple manual pump you get in kmart and secondly, volume of milk you get from daina brest pump is a way little in comparison to a simple manual pump. Thirdly, I felt uneasy and sore breast after pumping though I used only one day 15 min max in each breast as recommended in its guidelines. Again, this is the bulkiest, noisiest pump ever, the noise it creates is irritating, annoying and disturbing to my newborn and wakes him off.

Lastly, the quality of pumping tube and value is so poor and ridiculous as it feels like it would break down just after a single use.

I would not recommend this pump to anyone and for me, this has been a most regrettable purchase.

I LOVE this pump!! – This pump is amazing! I can’t believe how something so small can be so efficient, and being a double pump too, it definitely saves me a lot of time.… Read more

I was looking at buying a much bigger, bulkier pump originally & I’m so glad I didn’t now because this little pump is so compact which is far more convenient. I can fit everything (pump, fittings, bottles etc.) into my nappy bag & still have room for everything else, and it’s really simple to assemble too! It’s nice & quiet too which is a bonus as I often have an abundance of milk in the mornings so I can express some before bubs wakes up without waking him or my husband. Absolute game changer for me!

Just get one, they're all the same – I bought this while still in hospital as I got a little mastitis and to alleviate it I used a different branded hospital one and decided to buy this… Read more

one (researched heavily beforehand). For context my sister had the S2 but it was too big, I wanted one small enough to bring with me if I exclusively pumped, but also gave me flexibility to sit on the couch instead of a wall socket. This fit the task.

When in use I do find the portability handy, and can get several day out of it as I only pump occasionally, perhaps when I go back to work I will use it more but so far it has been worth the investment. Unfortunately you can't 'lie back' because of the way it catches milk but that's fine, I multitask and eat before bottling it up and passing to hubby so I can do something else. Seems silly, but if bub likes to sit and gorge for 30-40 min, for me a 10 min double pump is all I need to get back some time. Cleaning I just used a dishwasher and boil. If I plan to pump more than once a day I put the plastic parts in ziplock in the fridge till the next pump session. I liked knowing how much he was eating and to understand which was the slacker (if you know you know). I plan to pump when I'm back at work, if possible so it's good to understand what's happening.

I do think 'hospital grade' is a gimic and the important thing I was after was rechargeable, easy part replacement and dual pump to save time. I have only Medela to compare against and they both seem fine, both feel the same. I imagine they all do the same thing barring size, cost and fancy accessories.

In terms of use, it saves your last setting so no need to think about it, if your tossing up between portable and not, just go portable the battery is there for a day or two (if you exclusively pumped), it's cheaper, lighter. If you ask me, you need any special features, just bare in mind it does take time for milk to come in. This one was aesthetically pleasing but they are all the same in terms of function so just get one, any double pump brand will do, pretty sure they're all comparable in price, I liked this one at $299.

I would consider those ones that go in the bra, maybe if I was super desperate to pump in public spaces without the baby. But that has yet to happen in 6 months. I'm always with them and so I don't even bother with bottles unless I have to.

figure out a setting that works for you baby. It's easy to clean and put back together after some practice, but it's pretty simple. If you don't put it back together properly, it can leak if on an angle. My partner has considered getting a second one for dual pumping but one appears OK for now.

Not that many care but this is made in Europe (Hungary), which is good to see alternatives to made in China.

bought a replacement tube, like the other review, it doesn’t have enough suction. I found out that you have to reconnect the tube on the collection cup several times during pumping to have a better suction. Have to reconnect every few minutes or so. Not recommending this product at all. I wish I looked at products before I purchase it. As it’s over $200

STAY AWAY from Medela breast pump – STAY AWAY from Madela breastpump!!I used a Medela pump 8 years ago for my daughter and had a great experience. However, for my second baby, I wanted… Read more

a hands-free option so I could multitask. My husband purchased the Medela Swing Maxi Hands-Free Breast Pump from Chemist Warehouse in July 2024, just a few days after I gave birth. He even had to drive an hour to Epping since it was out of stock at our local store. Unfortunately, by December, I noticed the pump wasn’t working as well. It started sounding weaker and wasn’t extracting as much milk as before. Yesterday, it completely stopped working and won’t even turn on! It’s incredibly disappointing to spend $400 on a pump that only lasted six months. Sadly, my husband didn’t keep the receipt, so we can’t return or exchange it.

Today, I decided to try the hands-free breast pump from Kmart, and I’m blown away. For only $89, it has incredible suction, comparable to the Medela Freestyle that costs $499! To all the new mums out there, I highly recommend avoiding Medela. Save your money and consider better, more affordable options instead!
