Unfortunately this pump is hit and miss when it wants to help get milk out. I can never pump more than 2oz at a time with this pump, sometimes more if I take off the rubber finger but never consistent. It can go cordless and use batteries whichever is great and had 3 suction settings. Bit of a pain to clean got to take it all apart and I find milk still sometimes clings under the rubber pump bit but it’s a good little pump if it works for you. -

All in all it does what it is supposed to I just wish it could do it a little quieter! Expresses milk well however can be tricky to get back together after you have cleaned it all after use! Slightly awkward to use at first but you soon get the hang of it. - Weaknesses:

This is a product which does exactly what it says on the box. It's easy to use and clean, the fiddly bit is putting it back together after you've cleaned all the separate pieces. It's also very noisy so not great for pumping at night and you need to be plugged into the mains at all times. However if you can get over the noise and being plugged in it's a very durable, sturdy product, it lasted me through breastfeeding both of my children. - Strengths:

I pump for the milk bank as well as feed my daughter and this has been great! A tiny bit fiddly to put together but I like that as you can give it a good clean! -

I did a lot of painstaking research when it came to breast pumps... Not knowing whether to go manual or electric and not knowing whether to go high end and high price tag in the hope of a more efficient pump.
In the end I settled on this mid range Tommee Tippee electric pump and accessories and it's still going strong 9 months in.
This set came with everything I needed to get started. Of particular usefulness were the breast milk storage bags with screw top closing and which can be stored in the freezer.
I also loved the fact that it comes with its own compact microwave steriliser which is so handy and even handier for when going away and I don't need to lug my big steriliser with me.
The pump has 3 speed / strength settings which you can select from to ensure compatibility with your flow. It even starts off automatically on a 'let down' setting so you can stimulate your flow ready for pumping.
The only drawback really is the suction tube which fits between the pump and the electrical base and which can come off easily. This means it's not the best pump for using when moving about and you really do need to sit still when using which gets less easier as baby gets older.
Overall though I would say this pump is great value for money. - Strengths:

I found when it came to cleaning certain parts I stuggled to really get into some gaps to get rid of milk. I also found it hard to get a good seal round my nipple at times I don't now if it was just me as I have quite big breasts. When it did work it was great easy to control the speed and comfortable to hold. - Strengths:

<p>I recently brought this product as I was currently using the <a href="https://www.consobaby.co.uk/manual-breast-pump-tommee-tippee.html">Tommee Tippee manual breast pump</a>. As I knew already how to use the manual pump I found the electric pump easy to assemble. Once you’ve assembled once it’s easy to remember for the next time and many times after that. It’s easy to clean and sterilise. The only downfall is that it’s very noisy and you do need to plug it into electricity for it to work. Considering it’s almost half the price cheaper than some other popular brands it’s great value for its money.</p> - Strengths:

What a awful breast pump. Not worth the money at all. The only reason I got this was bwct it's for Tommie tippee Bottles. But the attachment from pump to boob cracked and made the suction awful, also made my nipples sore from rubbing on the sides. It's so loud! Stupidly loud not good if pumping at night next to sleeping partner. I then switched to the Tommie tippee manual pump and the milk came out so much faster, no pain and no noise. Wish I hadn't wasted over £100 on the electric one. - Strengths:

Is very easy to use, it was my first electric breast pump and it didn't failed. Non spilage of milk, easy to pump, suitable for sterilising. Using it is not painfull as I thought it will be. Coming up with box to storage it. Only annoying thing is a lots components which needs to be separated for every wash you need to do after each feed. - Strengths:

For the price of this product you are getting alot for your money. This set comes with a range of features and is perfect for a first electric breast pump.
It is easy to use and easy to connect together. The pump is compact enough to travel with and comes in a sterilisation box.
I found this product a little noisy however which can be an inconvenience if baby is sleeping. - Strengths:

I love this breast pump. I used this tommee tippee pump with my first daughter and I chose to purchase this one again for the new baby. It's so easy to use and very easy to clean which is a plus for any new mum. It is rather noisey but it's not an unbearable noise. You can also pop batteries in the back and it will become portable. I highly reccomend this pump over other expensive makes. - Strengths:

Brilliant pump. Great price as well. Collects breast milk easily and painlessly. I use it when my LO is feeding on the other side. Find it collects more. 3 settings for milder or more intense suction. No splash back (unlike some hand pumps). Comes in a handy tub so you can sterilise it in the unit - I use the tub to help stand up the pump after use (as LO is usually having a nap after). Ideal and wouldn’t look to use another pump. - Strengths:

I originally used a manual pump and found it so time consuming and hand ached. I decided to purchase this product and I was not disappointed! Makes life so much easier for a breastfeeding mum. I intend to take this to work with me when I return from maternity leave. Well worth the money to purchase and quicker than a manual. I found that the amount of milk increased using the electric pump, and you also get a microwave steriliser and breast pads in a bundle with it too. Attach a bottle and you’re on your way. Can dissemble and put in the steriliser easy enough. Can use batteries operated or plug in the mains, whichever is more convenient. Different levels of suction to suit user. Very happy with this product. - Strengths:

I bought this after trying to use the manual pump & struggling to get milk out. I found it to be so easy to use & having its own sterilising tub meant I could sterilise everything at the same time & had somewhere to store the parts. It is a little loud when in use which isn’t that much of an issue it would just be nice if it was quieter. I’ll definitely be keeping it for if/when we have another baby. - Strengths:

This pump is easy to assemble and use, I get milk out really quickly with this. Also easy to put apart and clean/sterilise.
The only negative is that this pump is really quite noisy. It’s fine if baby is awake and happy but it has woken him up before when I’ve used it - Strengths:

The pump is easy to assemble/disassemble and cleans easily. The steriliser is also handy. The pump is comfortable and has a range of settings so you can slowly increase the power of it.
The pump is quite noisy so it is quite hard to be discreet with it. I also find that I have to lean forwards so that the milk goes into the bottle and doesn’t come back on itself and leak when I remove the pump.
Overall, the pump does its job well. - Strengths:

Loved this when my little girl was first born as she lost a lot of weight and I needed to pump after every feed and top her up with EBM. I don’t think I would still be BF now if it wasn’t for this pump. - Strengths:
