Medela Hands-Free Collection Cups, Compatible with Freestyle Flex, Pump in Style with MaxFlow, and Swing Maxi Electric Breast Pumps, 1 Set of 2 Cups

I love using these cups and "hacking" them with my spectra s1. I like that they are hard plastic flanges and not silicone so I get the same output that I get with my spectra flanges. These are also only three pieces to wash so it's super quick and easy to clean and assemble. The only downside is that they are super pricey for only the cups. They also only come with one pair of the membranes and I feel like for the price an extra pair should be included.

I exclusively breastfeed my baby, but I'm an over-supplier so I need to pump at least 1 or 2 times a day on top of nursing. I also have a toddler and I'm about to go back to work from maternity leave. I knew I needed a solution to easily pump in the car to save some precious time (if you have 2 under 2, you know every moment counts lol!)I had tried pumping with my hands free bra and using the regular collection bottles, and if you've tried that you also know it's not fun. You can do it, but it's a pain and there's no way to be discreet. I don't exactly want to pull up to daycare drop off half dressed. 😂I've used Momcozy pumps before and still had some from my first breastfeeding journey, but to my dismay the replacement parts for the one I had were no longer available. It was only 2 years since I bought the pump so I was pretty shocked they discontinued that quickly....I had considered trying to order the cups for Elvie Stride and see if they would be compatible with my Motif or SpeCtra pumps, but they are $$$ and a ton of pieces to clean. Then I came across these! I was nervous they wouldn't work, but from what I can tell you can likely hook them up to any pump. You just plug the tubing you already have into the Medela adapters, and you're good to go! I've used these with my Motif Duo & Motif Luna with no issues. I pumped 10oz with the Luna on my commute today, with no leaks.Pros:• Seem to be compatible with any pump.• Holds a good volume, I had 6oz in one cup and not even close to overflowing.• Only 3 pieces to clean.• Can use with a regular stretchy/roomy bra, you don't need a special hand free pumping bra.• From a reputable and consistent brand, so replacement parts should be easy to purchase (as long as they don't get discontinued)• Easy to pour milk from• Flat bottom so you can set cups on the counter without spilling• I'm sensitive to EMF, and this is a way to have a hands free pumping experience without Bluetooth since you can connect to whatever pump body you prefer (Most of the wearables on the market now connect to an app and have to use Bluetooth)Cons:• They aren't small -- you will have Dolly Parton boobs while wearing. Not a collection cup you could wear with nobody noticing.• There are a couple spots where small amounts of milk can get stuck - but I've had this problem with any wearable I've tried.• The plastic parts can be hard to detach for cleaning, I keep my nails short but if you have long nails I think it might be a challenge to get them open.• Only 24mm and 21mm flange sizes - most moms are smaller. I had to order 18mm adapters from Maymom but they were affordable and work perfectly with these cups.I'm a huge fan of these, I'm thankful for Medela making these collection cups as an option. I hope to see other pump manufacturers follow suit, as this is a way more affordable option than buying a whole new pump. :)

I love these things, they’ve made such a huge difference in my life as someone who exclusively pumps 7-8 times a day. I use them with Medela tubing and a Spectra S1 pump, and when I put my pump in a little backpack I can pretty much do whatever I need to around the house, including picking up and caring for my baby and toddler.I have used regular flanges from both Spectra and Medela, PumpinPals silicone flanges, and the Legendairy Milk collection cups, and these are by far my favorite option.Simple Design: only three parts, super quick and easy to clean and assemble. I can put these together in less than 10 seconds.Effective: I don’t get the loss of suction I had with the Legendairy collection cups, these get me the same output as my regular flanges.Leakage: I can pretty much go about my day normally with these on and not worry about moving or bending. There IS a small hole in the top for pouring the milk out, and if you bend over super far (especially if you produce a lot of milk) it can leak out the top, but it’s only happened to me one time when I really bent far.Discreet: these definitely show up under your clothes, and especially if you have a large chest they will look like a separate little boob on top of your boob. But they’re a more natural shape than the Legendairy ones, and they’re definitely more discreet than regular flanges. I wouldn’t walk in the grocery store in a tight shirt wearing these, but for driving, working at a desk, or pumping while you have friends over, they’re great. And if you put on a big hoodie they’re pretty much invisible.Overall, these are amazing and I’d recommend them to anyone who pumps.
