Advantages: Once you get going you can use one hand. What you will do with the other hand is still limited.

Disadvantages: Slow, can be messy tuck a towel under neath or you can soak your clothes

I used the pump to build up a supply of milk to freeze so that I could enjoy a night out or 2.

It is very similar to other hand pumps and I don't remember the price.

It is quite fiddly to put together and it seems poitless sterilising all the little bits when you have to handle them so much to put it all together.

Once you get a seal the suction builds up and I found slow pumps worked better. It is clear so you can see the milk flowing and build up a rythm that suits.

It was very slow and I found expressing by hand into a glass bowl more productive.
