Key Features and Benefits
3 Customizable Pumping Styles, + 8 Adjustable Suction Levels
This puts all the power right in a mom’s hands, just as it should be. Women are more likely to stick with breastfeeding if they can find a setting that doesn’t feel like it is some sort of pain tolerance test.
LCD Display That Tracks Time
Screens, especially ones that track the time of pumping sessions, are a welcome addition to breast pumping. It’s far too easy to sit in a quiet room to do your breast pumping, get all strapped up, and only then realize you don’t have a clock, watch or phone in that room that will let you know how long you’ve been there.
That’s not a big deal if you plan on sitting there until you pump four ounces, but if you have an appointment you have to keep at a certain time, it can be frustrating. Having a timer on the screen helps ease that burden on moms.
Carry Tote
Moms can never have too many tote bags. We use them all and sometimes we’ll use them simultaneously, depending on how much stuff we have to lug around.
Hygienic Design That Prevents Backflow
Moms already have enough cleaning to do without taking our breast pumps apart and cleaning tubing. With the Lansinoh pump, we won’t have to do any extra cleaning because it guarantees that no milk will reach the tubes.
Easy to Use
Because it only has a few parts to assemble, it will be easy to clean and to figure out how to put together. When a hormonal pregnant woman tries to figure out assembly instructions that leave her confused, it can trigger an epic meltdown and feelings of inadequacy, which is just the opposite of what she needs to get her through the next few weeks.
Technology to Mimic Baby’s Feeding Pattern
Moms respond to their babies’ faces, their smell, their sounds, and even their feeding patterns. When moms feel like they are hooked up to a machine, they have a harder time with their letdown reflex. But when a machine can make them feel like their baby is at their breast, it stimulates letdown, which can lead to a quicker, more productive pumping session.
How Do They Compare?
Spectra S1
Moms who want a lot of accessories and samples will be happy with the Lansinoh pump, but moms who don’t want any extras, just the pump, will appreciate the simplicity of the Spectra S1, which doesn’t come with a lot of extras.
Freemie Freedom
If pumping discreetly while walking around and doing household chores is your idea of a good time, you may want to buy the Freemie Freedom. But if you look forward to breast pumping sessions as a time to sit and relax a bit, the Lansinoh might be right for you.
Tomy The First Years
If you’re looking to double pump while only using one hand, you’ll want to look at The First Years pump. If you don’t mind using two hands while you pump for a few minutes, you can stick with the Lansinoh pump.
Medela Freestyle
Moms who are on a budget should check out the Lansinoh Signature Pro because it’s a fraction of the cost of the Freestyle. But moms who want to buy a breast pump that has one of the best reputations out there for performance will want to cough up the extra money for the Freestyle.
Ameda Purely Yours
Those who are looking for a basic white breast pump that will fit in with any color scheme may want to check out Ameda Purely Yours. Moms who appreciate a beautiful looking pump and aren’t worried about it clashing with their nursery decorations may want to get the Lansinoh Signature Pro.
Who Should Buy This Pump?
When you buy the Lansinoh pump, you’ll get to try other Lansinoh products as well, such as the sample nipple cream and breast pads. Freebies are always appreciated by moms who want to try new products but don’t want to commit to buying something they might not like.
In addition to the samples the pump offers, it’s a good pump for an affordable price. Plus, the fact that the pump won’t leak milk into the motor or tubes is a big selling point for time-strapped moms.
