U need to weigh up how often u will use it..I bought a manual tommee tippee for £20 and glad I didnt spend loads on electric as I only use it once a week if tht, if ur gonna use it every day then yeh be beneficial..I am bf and had a hell of a job getting my son to take a bottle. The tt manual is easy to use I do it whilst feeding my son and at right time of day I can get 150ml in 10 mins. X

I bought a manual Tommee Tippee pump which I would recommend. I use it a couple of times a week, but plan to use it a lot more when I return to work. They're currently selling them for £10 on Amazon(!).

I've got tommee tippee electric and I think it's really good. I find the pump comfortable aswel. Only thing I can say that is a negative is quite loud. There on offer in mothercare £69.99 instead of £99 :-)

Lansinoh products including pumps have good reviews on Amazon. I am looking to buy the duo one as I am expecting twins.

I have got the medela swing £130.00, i bought it because my little one has a tongue tie and we are still waiting for the op. The pump works great much better than a manual but its not the quietest , gets good milk though, pumping as i type:-)

I had this one but was only £73 on Amazon in November! I just had to check and shocked to see it's almost doubled in price within 2 months. I didn't get on so well with it though and returned it - the manual Avent one I had worked better for me. Ref the tongue tie — mine had that, it was at the tip of her tongue but she had it snipped by the paediatrician at 3 days - didn't need an operation for it. Whats the reason they are giving for an op? x

I now use a medela swing. I initially bought the Ameda Lactaline Double Electric but found that the suction was not very good at all.
