This is the only pump I've tried but it has worked great for me and I've been using it for 5 months so far. The pump is plenty powerful enough that I can express plenty of milk for my baby while I am at work. I really liked the idea of this pump because of the closed system which means you don't have to wash the tubing because it does not ever have any condensation. I was afraid of using the Medela because of the fact that is an open system and they say you can spread diseases if you share between people. I don't plan on sharing my pump but if I were to get sick, would I have to be afraid I contaminated the pump? The Ameda pump is a closed system so this is not a risk. Also, the Ameda pump is much less expensive than the Medela which I cannot figure out why.
I have not used this pump with the batteries or the car adapter although I like having those options just in case I am ever stuck somewhere without my baby.
I have only a few minor issues with the Ameda system which are not directly related to the pump itself. 1. They do not make nipples for their bottles. I have tried some other standard size nipples but they were too small for my baby since he was used to breastfeeding. Medela makes some wide based nipples to use with their pumping bottles and I actually bought them and the medela bottles fit fine to the Ameda pump. 2. My other issue is that I was pumping more than 4 oz from each side but the bottles only hold 4 oz. So, again, I bought the larger Medela bottles that hold 8 oz and use them with my Ameda pump. If Ameda made items such as these I would have been happier since they would have been made specifically for my pump, but the Medela items work fine.
