Advantages: easy to use, very useful

Disadvantages: none

This is a really good breast pump. I haven't actually tried any others so can't compare it to anything, but it works really well for me. I used it when my milk first came in, having rather large breasts it was difficult for my baby to latch on when they were very full so I used the pump to empty each breast a bit before feeding. The pump was comfortable, very effective and so easy to use one-handed that I actually pumped from one breast while my baby fed from the other.
I have the disposable bottle holder, so the milk gets pumped into bags which can be stored in the fridge or freezer and inserted into a holder later. As the baby sucks the milk is delivered straight from the bag causing a vacuum so no air gets in, much more like feeding from an actual breast than from a bottle and less to wash and steralise. I haven't actually fed my baby from the bottle yet as I'm still breastfeeding, but I intend to later.
The best thing about this pump was the price, usually £27.50, I bought it in the Boots sale and it was only £13.

I agree it is a wonderful pump. If you intend to feed your baby the occational bottle later on it is a good idea to get her used to it soon. That way you will get no trouble switching her over from the odd bottle to breast and visa versa. If however you wait for a long time then you can find baby is to used to the breast and refuses to use the bottle. Good luck.
