    Best battery powered breast pump

    I used Spectra 2 with my first born and loved it. It was great but hated being stuck to the wall while pumping. This pump allowed me to walk around the house while pumping and gave me a chance to still run after the kids or do chores at the same time.

    Amazing pump

    I love everything about this pump. I love that it has a quick charging stand alone battery which makes pumping anywhere possible. It’s a closed system which is more sanitary. The machine itself is quiet and has a lot of sizing options for flanges. The suction is comparable to a hospital grade pump. Highly recommend.

    Spectra s1

    I have the spectra s1 breast pump as a back up to breastfeeding as my little one was a preemie and couldn't suck properly. The spectra s2 was able to give me a decent supply, slightly more than I need so I have a stash of breast milk if I need it. I love that it has an expression mode that the vacuum can be increased for higher suction if needed. It also has a let down mode that you can increase the cycle and vacuum for when you have a let down. A bonus is the light feature with a low and high night light. The light is great if you don't want to wake up baby or your partner if you have to pump in the middle of the night. It's fairly bright for a night light. Unfortunately it doesn't have a backlight behind the screen but the nightlight allows you to see the screen. There is one bottle holder on the back side of the pump behind the handhold. It's the perfect size for the spectra pump bottle. The s1 has a backflow protector so milk won't gather into the tubing or go into the pump accidentally. This can be a single or double pump machine. My favorite part of the spectra s1 is that it has a battery back up that lasts about 3 hours. With all the storms and power outages we have had recently, this has been amazing and I haven't needed to hand express unless the power has been out for more than a day. The pump has an automatic shut-off after thirty minutes since breast tissue can be damaged if you pump longer than that, especially at higher suction. This is an awesome pump!

    This is the absolute best

    The holy grail of breast pumps.

    I attribute my freezer stash mainly to this pump. This pump has traveled with me domestically and internationally. I took it to work with me every day for 8 months, post maternity leave. I've pumped while doing my makeup. I've pumped while nursing on the other side.

    This breastpump has allowed me the freedom to pump because of its versatility and rechargeable battery (which lasts over a week - pumping 2-3 times a day). It has so many let down cycle settings and suction cycle settings. It has a night light. Don't think twice. Buy this pump.

    Best pump

    Before I found the spectra s1 breastpump, I was using the medela on the go. I feel like my body responds very well to this pump and gets the job done well! I would highly recommend this pump to anyone looking for a great pump and it doesn't break the bank.

    Brest pump power horse!

    LOVE the Spectra S1! After having 3 children, I've finally invested in a pump and this one did not disappoint! It's super easy to use and cleanup is easy as well. Not much instructions but once you start it's a breeze! It is lightweight which makes it easy to transfer from place to place. It runs quietly. I don't use rhe light feature on it but it gives off great, strong lighting given that the light is small. I love that it is rechargeable, does not require batteries, and does not have to be plugged into an outlet while pumping.

    Yes to Spectra!

    I feel like the most common question to new mothers is what breastpump should I get? I've been able to try the medela and spectra and hands down the spectra is my go to! It's very quiet, has a built in nightlight and easy to adjust. I pumped more milk with my Spectra and in a shorter amount of time than the medela. I love the built-in battery. It lasted days without needing a charge. The only con is the bottles. They can easily tip over. However, my advent glass bottles fit the flanges and we're very sturdy, so I just used those. Not a big deal. I can't comment on price bc my insurance covered 100%.

    A must for exclusively pumping moms

    I exclusively pump for my little one and I cannot say enough good things about this Spectra S1 pump. It has not only kept my supply up but has increased it as time went on with it's hospital grade suction. I love how it's a closed system, very hygienic and easy to clean and maintain. I take it everywhere and with the rechargeable battery I can go anywhere, shopping, park, road trips. I just love it and will definitely recommend it to anyone who is in the market for a low price effective breast pump.

    Love it

    I’ve tried Medela pumps and it just does not compare! The power and suction makes pumping quick and easy. Also love the built in rechargeable battery that allows you to take it with you and pump anywhere. It’s also very lightweight. Highly recommend!

    I can't say enough about this breast pump! With our daughter, I used a different (but good name!) pump, and didn't have much success. I was not producing enough milk to breastfeed, so I was trying to supplement as much as possible. The old pump was loud, and I found that milk was going back down the tubes and creating a mold situation in the back of the pump... gross! When we were expecting our son, I researched pumps and came across the spectra s1. I ordered it and never looked back. My production, while still not enough to exclusively bf, went up more than triple. The pump is almost silent, it has a nice look to it, it has a night light, which seems silly but in the middle of the night it is awesome. This pump is comparable in price to other double pumps, but the product is miles above any other! Absolutely worth the price to get the s1 over the s2, to get the battery backup, I loved being able to pump in the car or somewhere other than home without having to find a plug and be tethered. I would highly recommend this pump to any new mom!
