Lansinoh Double Electric Breast Pump

The Lactivist Says: The most affordable breast pump that you bet your supply on! Overall, the Lansinoh Double Electric Breast Pump to be a good option at an extremely affordable price. At under $200 retail it's nearly $100 cheaper than most comparable breast pumps. It would be a great choice for a mom that pumped occasionally, but maybe not for a mom that pumped exclusively. The first thing that impressed about the Lansinoh Double Electric Breast Pump was the size. Even out of the bag, PISA pump is pretty heavy to lug around. You could toss the Lansinoh pump in a large purse or tote bag and hardly even know it was in there. Another big bonus to the Lansinoh pump is that the pump itself has a compartment for six AA batteries. The Lansinoh system allows you to unscrew the bottle from the flange and to remove the valve, but that's it.

Next, let's consider cleaning. You see, the PISA has to separate because the suction system runs through the back of the pump. Finally, the valve that's used in the Lansinoh pump is just pure brilliance.

What they've done is create an air chamber above the flange that's designed to create the suction. The pump works by sucking the air out of the INSIDE of the rubber membrane which collapses and creates a suction effect for the pump. It works extremely well and in the dozen times I used the pump, I never saw a single drop of fluid in the tubes.

The bottles that come by default are a little on the small side. As someone with a pretty good pumping output I found that annoying. That said, the pump will screw on to quite a few standard size bottles so I imagine you could remedy that by simply pumping into something other than the bottles that come with it.

For pumping moms that find themselves losing parts fairly often...no need to worry. Lansinoh's web site has an online store that sells replacement parts. Overall, I'm pretty impressed with Lansinoh's first foray into the world of breast pumps. While you can buy it online, quite a few major retailers are now carrying the Lansinoh Double Electric Breast Pump.
