VERY happy with it!
by mom466087Combined rating
I bought this pump for the first time and I’m completely in love! Easy to use, the fact that can be used plugged or with batteries is a must! Not too noisy. Affordable and excellent quality. Being able to express both breasts at the same time is a life saver, specially with a new born that requires our attention pretty much all day. Not bulky, so easy to pack away and take everywhere in a small hand bag. I recommend this product and brand! Did not have the opportunity to trie others, but I didn’t need to as this one has all it is needed :)
Fantastic

I wouldn’t recommend anything but the Medela Swing maxi flex what an amazing product used while my baby was in NICU
The best pump I’ve tried!
by mom459292Combined rating
I have absolutely loved this pump. It has every aspect I would want in a breast pump. I love that it is not only so simple and easy to use, but it sooo portable. I’m so impressed with the new breast shield, so much more comfortable than the previous version. I’m also really loving that you can clip it onto your shirt or pants while pumping, so you can move around. With my old pump I was only able to pump around 50mls but with this one I’m getting around 200ml in just 10 minutes! So happy. Definitely recommend this product to everyone. I’ve even managed to get my pregnant friend to buy one, she was soo impressed!
Love my new breast pump

Love my new breast pump, love that is portable and quite so my baby doesn't wake when he sleeps through. Love that it has different suction settings also
The best breast pump I’ve ever used
by Klsmith91Combined rating
This is the best breast pump I’ve ever used! The suction is great but it doesn’t hurt. I’ve used loads of different pumps and this is by far my favourite. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to establish feeding or establish a great freezer supply. This pump promoted my let down to start easily whereas similar other pumps haven’t done that for me. Great price, great product.
This is a game changer in pumps!

Wow! Just wow! With a 2 year old and a premature new born at home that is feeding every 2 hours around the clock this pump has changed my world! I can hook the pumps on play blocks with my active toddler or I can cut up the veggies for dinner. The suction is complete and strong without being painful- it is so effective with me yielding more milk than ever before! My only negative thought is why oh why didn’t I have this with my son!?!? It would’ve made my breastfeeding journey so much easier. Thank you Medela and thank you mouths of mums from a very happy and tired Mumma xxx

Can't talk about this breast pump high enough. Love that I can continue doing all those mum things as well as pump at the same time because I can use it as a portable pump.
Love love love

Recieved my pump today and straight away used it. Quick, portable and easy to use, the Swing Maxi Fle is a portable double electric breast pump hat mimics babies’ sucking for a more natural pumping experience. Most favourite part is that it's portable so I can pump and continue to do things. Can't wait to continue using and give more reviews about it .

by mom462741Combined rating
Using this for exclusivlely pumping every 3 hours as my son was in nicu for 3 months and couldn’t breastfeed I found this soo comfortable versatile and practical yet overly efficient wouldn’t be using anything else if I was to use another breast pump again Medela is the only way to go
Amazing
by our.sunshine.and.rainbowCombined rating
I have had my swing Maxi flex for a day and I absolutely love it. I love that it's portable but also has a power plug also Definitely worth 5 stars. Also went out and got teats for the bottle and my bub took the bottle right away
AMAZING
by mumma-britCombined rating
Being a FTM it was daunting starting to breastfeed and pumping was really scary for me, but not with the Medela. This breast pump was gentle but still had great sucking power, and the battery lasts forever. The milk catcher inserts, bottles, and tests made by Medela are great too. 10/10
Most affordable breast pump out there
by mom468190Combined rating
I purchased this product 3 months ago and have been using it everyday. It works well in pumping breast milk and was quite straight forward to assemble. I have only two problem with it, one being that soemtimes when I unscrew the bottle from the breast shields it soemtimes leaks quite a bit of milk that was somehow trapped in between. Secondly the inside of the breast shields small crevices can be difficult to Clean without a small tool. I had only realize there was some mold in the smallest gap when i looked thoroughly inside! Make sure you check !
Best travel pump
by wsternsydmamaCombined rating
This pump gave me my personal best (150 in 20 mins). I had tried the advent pump prior am it was long and hard to manage. I had to to put in alot of work.. leaning forward, using arms to 'squeeze' - you get the picture. Best part would be being able to maintain the power with batteries instead of using international converters. Which unfortunately, loses the 'UMPH' another plus is how light and small the pump is. Easily fit in my baby bag.
Great choice
by momsieintheblockCombined rating
It is the name that I decided to go for when I was choosing a breast pump and I am not regret for buying Medela as it is easy to use. I am a person who is lazy to read instructions, however, Medela Swing Maxi Flex breast pump is easy to assemble and use. Highly recommended for mommies to be!
Super comfy pumping experience
by AliceCombined rating
I was blown away by how comfy this is compared to the pump I was using. The breast shields adapt to your boob shape, and the parts are really quick and easy to assemble and wash. Being a double is a HUGE timesaver. I love that you can pump hands free, and use the battery function to move around and get things done while pumping. You can use a pumping bra or even just put slits in a firm crop top! The letdown setting is great for anyone trying to establish or build supply too. I'd never used milk bags before but after also trying the Medela milk storage bags I got as a free sample, I'm hooked. So much easier than storage bottles in fridge like I was doing previously!
