Medela Swing Maxi Hands-Free
Verified3 reviews
Unfortunately this product destroy the brand name. The fist time I use it the tube broke and I bought it brand new from baby bunting. When I then 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

My wife and I bought this pump, nothing but trouble. It claims Bluetooth compatibility with the app but it barely connects. It spills so easy. I tried contacting support with no response. Never got a single reply even months later. Terrible product, terrible company.
This pump has caused me so much distress. I bought this pump via the Medela Store on Amazon this year. The first few pumps were great, however suction dramatically decreased after the first few sessions. I thought I was using it properly so I refrrred to the menu as well as the online videos showing how to use this pump and I was still disappointed. This pump has caused me so much distress and anxiety that I have almost lost my milk and will be contacting my GP to make arrangements to get medications to boost my supply as it has decreased so much while trying to use this pump. And while I bought it with the collection cups as I said which cost more it actually is harder to use than the normal handheld double maxi pump the cups spill constantly if you’re bent over at a certain angle and you cannot actually see the milk output from where you are sitting because of where the suction flanges are all positioned. I’m constantly having to set an angle to see if my milk is actually being sucked out into the pump. I also went and bought a bunch of different attachments thinking that different accessories would help boost my supply if I was using it wrong however I was further disappointed. This pump has caused so many meltdowns and tears. I usually have great milk output, this has made me depressed.
Follow-up · Attachments: collection Cups with double tubing. Normal flanges to at come with the Swing, as well as a single tubing option for both of these. I also used different sized flanges in the cups and the normal flanges that attach to the bottles. My partner spent much of his time meticulously cleaning each individual part. The collection cups often loss suction compared to when I first bought the machine. Cups would often leak due to the hole in the top, cannot even lean the slightest bit without spillage.
