Breast pump recommendation Please!
I am not sure if this is the right place to put this question, I really need some recommendations for a great breast pump. TIA

It's not cheap (over $300 in stores) but I LOVE my Medela Freestyle. Definitely call your insurance company though to see if you qualify for a free or discounted one though. Mine was free through my insurance.

I use the medela symphony that i rent. It works great but I don't have anything to compare it to since it's the only one I've ever used. I exclusively pump and I've never had any issues.

I agree. It is so light and portable, I LOVE it. And my insurance covered it 100% too!

I have the Medela Pump in Style backpack. I love it. It sells for $279 at BRU but I scored it for $219 at Burlington Coat Factory.

i own a medela freestyle which i like due to its portability, however i rented a medela symphony for a few months and it is considerably more powerful (hospital grade). if u need to pump for supply reasons rental and symphony is the way to go. if your supply is not an issue and you are pumping for bottles buy a freestyle.

I think it depends on how much/where you will be pumping. I constantly pump on the go (sometimes even in my car), and would not want to have to plug it in. The battery power lasts me all week so I don't need to carry the plug. Plus I can take the pump without the bag if I wanted to.

My PIS has battery capability.
