Spectra 9 Plus Advanced vs. Medela Pump In Style Advanced
Soooo I found out I'm covered for a breast pump but only if I go to a medical supply store or order from Byram Healthcare. Since there are no suppliers relatively close to me and I'm extremely lazy, I'll probably order from Byram.
They don't offer the Spectra 1 or 2, which is what I had planned to order. They do, however, offer the Spectra 9 Advanced or the Medela Pump In Style Advanced.
I'm leaning towards the Spectra 9- I like that it double pumps. I like that it is a closed pump system. It does seem like it's a bit of a pain with what bottles it adapts to. Am I correct that it's compatible with Avent bottles/bags?
Let me know what you like/hate about each!

I used the Medela PISA. The double pump control wasn't as important of a feature for me me. I never found the need to vary the pressure / speed per breast.... I think the biggest advantage is that they sell replacement parts in most stores.

Spectra 9 Plus Advanced vs. Medela Pump In Style Advanced
I used the medela with my first and I'm using the spectra s2 with my second. I bought the s2 through a great groupon goods price and got the spectra s9 through insurance.
I love the spectra. Although the s2 is hospital grade. I get so much more milk with it and it's much more gentle.
The s9 is portable and can hold a charge and it's a closed system.
The bottles aren't a big deal to me. I pump into the spectra bottles and pour into dr. Brown bottles or nuk storage bags.
You can buy little neck adapters so you can pump directly into the medela bottles.

That is another PITA. Though I did notice Amazon has a lot of their replacement parts as well.
