Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump Review

This pump has saved me a lot of money while using it with two babies. Now we are expanding the family, I know I can take it out of storage, dust it off, and use it with the third child. It is a very lightweight, durable workhorse. I have tried Medela and Playtex ( just for comparison’s sake) and it is the better pump. Thank goodness I went to a hospital that had Ameda pumps and not Medela, or I may have gotten the medela out of ignorance.

I have used this breastpump for 2 children now. My first child I pumped exclusively for over 1 year (no formula supplementing)…so this breastpump I used ALOT. No problems at all. Around the 1 yr mark the motor died (I understood though with as much as I used it), but the customer service people replaced it anyway (although the warranty was expired). I am now using the replacement pump three years later with my second child…She is 3 months old now and no problems with the breastpump (even though it was in storage for over 3 years). This is a great breastpump and the customer service is amazing.

I was so worried about buying a breast pump because most of them are quite expensive and you cannot return them if they don’t work out. My first choice did not work out well at all. I bought an Evenflo double electric pump that never worked for me.

Needless to say, I did a lot more research before making my second purchase. I read a lot of good reviews about the Ameda Purely Yours breast pump so I figured it was worth a try. My pump even came pre-assembled, which was a HUGE plus for me. The Purely Yours has really worked well. I have been able to speed up my pumping time and have increased my supply. I have been very satisfied with this pump from day one.

This pump was offered to me at the hospital and I am so glad I got it!! My daughter was not able to get the hang of nursing, so at 3 weeks I turned into a full time pumper. I worked full time and we succesfully completed a full year of breast feeding. This pump was so easy to use, and the car adapter was my best friend!! I don’t recommend using bateries unless it is an emergency because I didn’t have the greatest luck getting them to work consistently. I just had my second child and I still se the same pump. I got a new HygieniKit just to start with a fresh, new milk collection kit. I have no complaints about this pump, very highly recommended!

Before spending any money for a pump, I did a lot of research. Based on everything that I read the Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump was supposed to be a good pump, and it really does live up to its expectations. It is comfortable and very easy to use. Cleaning it takes no time (only 2 pieces for each side – fewer pieces to wash than with a bottle). And it is small enough for me to toss in a tote bag when I go to work.

I got the bagless option that only came with 2 bottles so I also bought the Milkmate storage bottles, which work great with this pump. This pump is worth the money.
