Editorial Review |
|
The Avent Isis breast pump is a great portable system. This manual pump provides a comfortable and efficient way to pump without the need for a larger, battery-run breast pump. The disposable silicone "let-down" cushion has five petal-shaped massagers that flex in and out to imitate your baby's suckling. It's comfortable because you control the speed and pressure. This pump is easy to take apart and clean and comes with a stand, travel cover, sealing disc, spare diaphragm, and two valves. It also has a newborn nipple so you can use the 4-ounce bottle to feed your baby. --Andrea Linsky |

great pump better than Pump in style and cheap |
I bought this because I read good reviews and I liked how the Avent bottles mimic the breast. I got the kit that had the insulated bag and it came with a few 4 oz and 9oz bottles. I love this for the following:
-It's small and easy to carry. With the black insulated bag noone but friends know I have a breast pump in it. The bag easily holds the pump and 2 full bottles, maybe even 3.
-Easy to clean, there are hardly any parts!
-I can control the suction!
-I get a ton of milk.
I was getting about 4 oz in 15 minutes on this doing one breast
I thought I could get more so bought a pump in style and I was getting 1 oz per breast in 20 minutes. They say electric is best , not always true. However Medela has the custom shields, I had to also buy a size bigger. With the Avent I just take out the flowered soft cup and use it as is and I am fine. I was using the large Medela ones. |

Works for me! |
I had to take a last minute trip and was in need of a manual pump, not wanting to hassle with my Pump in Style on the road. I remember my doula had recommended the Isis so I decided to check it out. After reading the reviews here about the problems some people have with this pump I was a little hesitant but went ahead and purchased it anyway at Babies R us (for about $12.00 more than Marketadvisory has it listed for).
I have had "star" valve pop off during pumping once and yes it was a bit irritating but it only happened that one time and I have been using it for about 6wks now at least once a day with a few days of all-day use.
I get SO much more milk from this than my electric Pump in Stlye, its not even funny, especially considering how much less this one cost! The PIS was purchased nearly 5yrs ago before our first child was born though so maybe its a technology thing? I am recommending the Isis to all my friends who are also pregnant, this is my third baby and I wish I had the Isis for the first two!! |

it is terrible |
|
I tried couple times to pump the milk, I could not pump any milk out. I would not recommend anybody else would buy it. |

What a pain! |
|
I had to get an electric pump after attempting to use a manual one. I got the Isis Avent because I trust the brand so much. It was awkward to use and just too much work for so little breastmilk. Electric pumps are expensive but you can get them used on e-bay, garage sales, consignment, or Craigslist for cheap. |

Just easy |
I was told that manual breast pumps were difficult to use and your hands will get tired, but this is not the case with this pump. Your hands don't even notice the little exercise they do.
I have used other brands and they were difficult to use,my nipples were hurt. Not with this one!!!
It is easy to use, easy to ensemble, and easy to clean.
