Haakaa Manual Breast Pump, Clear, 4oz/100ml

This product is amazing for saving breastmilk! It catches your milk flow on one side whilst you’re pumping the other. Just remember to keep an eye on it as I accidentally didn’t one of the first times I used it and it fell off as it became heavy and as a result, must have lost it’s suction. I was so upset I lost a whole thing of milk! Lesson learnt and I emptied it regularly into a bottle. The product does eventually go a funny creamy/yellow colour if left in sterilising solution (I kept putting it in my cold water steriliser) to the point you can’t tell how much milk is in it so if you buy this just sterilise it before use than allowing it to sit in the solution for a while. Overall I think this product is amazing and I wish it had existed with my first two children. I’d certainly recommend it to others!

I'm a first time mum with a 7 week old baby. This is the best pump I've bought. I've bought a £15 manual hand pump before which hurts your hand after a while and takes longer to get the milk out. I also have tried the medala electric pump in the neonatal unit which I had to hold them on my breasts. This pump is easy as you don't have to hold it if you suction it well enough. It doesn't Hurt If you attach it correctly. It removes the milk well and for the price it's worth it. I've also got the ladybugs which are great to use instead of pads which just waste the milk and also saves you money! Buy it!

This is by FAR better than any electric pump. And it draws milk out much faster. I highly recommend this!!!!

It’s great for catching let downs. Downside was my baby would constantly kick it away. So I always had to use one hand to hold my baby and the other hand to hold it. Which was stressful.

I have breastfed my first child on demand for 3½ years and just given birth to my second, resulting in a painful engorgement. I am a pro at hand expressing when needed and have used an electric pump in the past, but sterilising the multiple parts and dealing with tubes or charging cables is a nightmare. Enters the haakaa succion cups. I couldn't believe how good, fuss free and effective these are. Sanitised in 3 seconds. Highly portable. Silent to use. No discomfort. You just fold the top part, pinch the bottom part to create a vacuum and they automatically adhere to your nipples, so you can be hands free, they'll stay on. In less than 5 minutes, I can collect a bag's worth of milk (never had any issue with supply, I tend to overproduce milk without any effort). I highly recommend this item.

Didn’t work for me and I found that I had to have it suctioned on with such force it hurt, but if I didn’t have as much suction it fell off.

Wasn’t for me found it hardly produced any milk didn’t feel comfortable either

For my first child I only tried to hand express and also bought a very pricey electric pump with all the bells and whistles. However, I never successfully managed to collect milk with these. For my second child, I heard everyone raving about this hakaa so thought, why not give it a go? I am so glad I did, I have never collected this much milk so easily!! It even helped in the early days to gather colostrum as my baby will only take the one favoured boob, so every time I feed I have the hakaa going on the other side so I don't have mismatched sizes and both produce for my baby equally. There's a lot of youtube videos with tips and tricks to use this and make it more comfortable, one thing I've also found helps for comfort is placing it in the fridge before your milk is about to come in as this is when you're most delicate and the cold silicone grasp actually helps. If you find your baby kicks it off, you can actually have a more secure hold by folding back the mouth of the hakaa and then popping it on.
