Customer Reviews

Very Powerful--and I made it hands free myself--without the extra cost!
I rented the Symphony from the hospital for the first month before purchasing the PIS shoulder bag pump. I love love love it. It is so powerful, I think it is even more powerful than the Symphony. Its easy to carry around and can hold all my pumping accessories. I would recommend shopping all the sites (Amazon and Target) before buying b/c I paid 279 and now I see it on here for 235. I bought mine at Target and the week later it went on sale for 240 so I took my reciept back and got an adjustment and the difference back. I would suggest getting a few sets of flanges though. I have 2 and am considering buying a third. I am pumping full time. I made mine hands free buy cutting slits in an old sports bra and that has been wonderful. I figured the "freestyle's" bra clips could be time consuming and the freestyle is so much more expensive. The sports bra thing works amazing.

Almost perfect pump
I bought this breast pump after a mother of 3 recommended buying a medela pump and after buying the manual medela harmony pump. I did my research and decided this was the pump that would suit my needs. I decided to quit nursing but wanted to give my daughter breastmilk. I was also going to be returning to work and needed to pump for when I am gone.

Pros:
After figuring out how to pump properly, I started getting more milk. It has a suction control which helps when I am sore and need a lower setting. It also has a 2 minute letdown which automatically switches to regular pumping. You can also push the button to go back and forth between regular and letdown mode. I like that I can pump one breast at a time or double pump. I liked all the accessories the package came with such as sample nipple cream, breast pads, and bottles. The pump also fits standard bottles. It's easy to clean after each session and has less pieces per breast than the Harmony.

Cons:
It's quite heavy and sometimes a pain to move from the regular spot that I keep it. The bottles did not come with rings so I have to use the rings from other bottles to use the bottle to feed my daughter. The nipple shields were not the correct size and I had to buy a different size.

Excellent Breast Pump
I purchased this breast pump approximately one month ago. I would highly recommend it to any breastfeeding mother. It has two phases to help stimulate let-down faster. I am a nurse and use a Symphony hospital-grade pump while I'm at work. I honestly cannot tell a difference in the quality between the Pump In Style Advanced and the Symphony. The pump does not detach from the bag but I have not found this to be a problem as other reviewers have. It is an expensive breast pump but well worth the money. And if you do your research you can find it cheaper. I bought mine at bestbuybaby.com for $200 (I think maybe $240 for the metro bag) with no shipping/handling and no sales tax.
