The Swing Maxi (New) Double Electric Breast PumpThe Swing Maxi (New) is the recipient of multiple awards, winning gold across the board from numerous presenters. Like the Freestyle Flex, you get a double pumping experience for up to 18% more milk in less time, and again the 2-Phase Expression™ Technology actually mimics your baby’s natural sucking rhythm.
It also comes with 2 different sizes of PersonalFit Flex™ Breast Shields for increased comfort and 11% more milk. That is such a huge benefit if you are a pumping mum, and time never seems to be on your side.
It also shares the same feature of improved mobility as the Freestyle Flex, and with the built-in rechargeable battery that lasts for up to 6 pumping sessions off one full charge, so you can rest assured you are able to pump on the go.
Incredibly importantly, it is easy to use. With it’s 4 button intuitive interface and 9 pre-programmed settings, it is noticeably quieter compared to earlier models. PLUS, it has a faster charging capability with a USB type C port.
The Solo™ Single Electric Breast Pump
Medela’s old Swing Flex has been reborn as the Solo™, and what a rebirth it is!
Another easy to use pump (sensing a theme here?) the 4 button intuitive interface and 9 pre-programmed settings make this a simple, versatile option as a breast pump. Also featuring a built in, re-chargeable battery that lasts up to 6 pumping sessions in one full charge, it is also noticeably quieter when you compare it to older models.
The 2-Phase™ Expression 1,2 technology really does mimic your baby’s natural sucking rhythm, and the Personal Fit Flex Breast Shield, as you already know, provides you increased comfort and 11.8% more milk.
It’s easy to clean and assemble thanks to its simplistic, minimal parts. And if you’re a pumping mum who pumps throughout the night, you will be so incredibly glad of this feature.
Harmony Manual Breast Pump
Now, let’s take a minute here to talk about manual pumps. They get a bad wrap. Electric are know for being quicker, easier and more ‘advanced’ in their design. However, manual is where it all began (if we’re not including hand pumping). There really are so many features and benefits, not to mention the fact you don’t need to factor in charging times, and you can have full control over the speed of the suction. The Harmony Manual Breast Pump continues to sell incredibly well and is always up there in terms of award wins. It’s a perfect travel companion and incredibly lightweight, throw it in your nappy bag and head on out the door.As you have likely noticed, all our pumps come with the PersonalFit Flex™ Breast Shields. The Harmony is no exception, so you can pump in a comfortable fashion.
