The simple and functional BabyOno Naturel breast pump is perfect for mothers who want to get a convenient and high-quality assistant for a small price.

The presented model refers to the mechanical appearance of the devices, which simplifies its application. The articulated type of design is a convenient solution that allows, in this case, pumping with one hand. A notable feature is the ergonomic handle structure, developed according to the principle of the BPA FREE concept, which provides for comfortable use of the breast pump for both left-handed and right-handed people.

In the package you will find a bottle made of medical polyester PES with a brightly traced metric gradation, a volume of 150 ml, under it the manufacturer has thought out a stable, very wide stand, as well as an anatomical silicone nipple, designed for children from birth.

A nice bonus is the presence of an adapter that allows you to use the device with bottles with a large neck, but there is no cap for the bottle to store expressed milk directly in it.

A silicone massage pad is designed to make pumping comfortable.

The breast pump is not noisy, even during prolonged use there is no squeaking of parts, and the special safe plastic used in all elements withstands high temperature loads, which will allow you to sterilize the device without problems. However, users note that the structure of the bell and the cap is a little intricate and it is very problematic to clean out milk residues from there, you cannot do without a special brush.

The eminent Italian brand always pleases its users with high quality products even in the low-cost segment, and the Chicco 05740.00 model is a vivid confirmation of this.

The swivel-type mechanical model fits incredibly comfortably in the hand, and the pump mechanism is smooth with an easy move and no squeaks. The snug fit of the funnel, equipped with a soft silicone pad with a corrugated surface, makes it possible to use it for any breast size. Moreover, the very structure of the part has an anatomical shape and eliminates injury during pumping. The design of the working mechanism slightly complicates the care of the device, since it is very problematic to remove residues from its corners of the structure.

The breast pump comes with a 150 ml bottle. On the one hand, the shape of the bottle is convenient and fits comfortably in the hand, even a baby can easily hold it, and on the other hand, for the sake of comfort of use, care was brought, since it is not convenient to wash out such a shape. A dishwasher can be a good helper in this, especially since the high-quality plastic components can easily withstand high temperatures and any type of sterilization.

A special adapter is provided for all series of bottles of the brand. Also in the kit you will find a nipple designed for children from birth and a sealed cap.

This model is an excellent portable assistant for mothers who value quality products at an affordable price.

The merger of two global giants Philips and the progenitor of the first AVENT anatomical silicone nipple has provided new parents with a great variety of quality baby care products.

The Philips SCF330/20 breast pump belongs to the category of the simplest mechanical articulated devices. Like all brand products, the model has received the most simplified characteristics, allowing you to comfortably express milk at any time and anywhere.

The design is provided in such a way that a woman in a comfortable and relaxed position can use it. The boost pump, operated by a convenient lever, operates smoothly and efficiently, eliminating the need to lean forward. The close-fitting funnel with a soft massage pad creates a warm feeling on the skin, while the raised petals mimic the process of sucking by a baby. However, users note that after prolonged use and sterilization, the nozzle turns yellow and loses its shape.

The manufacturer equipped the breast pump with a branded 125 ml bottle, which received an anatomical soft nipple with an anti-colic valve. It eliminates the ingress of excess air and protects the baby from bloating.

The bottle has one outlet, that is, a slow flow, which will make the baby work hard even taking food from the bottle, and therefore not give up on mother's breast.

As the baby grows, you can choose a larger feeding bottle with a stronger flow, as all models of the brand are compatible with a breast pump.

Also a nice bonus in the package was a branded set of inserts in a bra, a travel cover and a sealing disk.

A fly in the ointment is added by the formation of scratches and clouding of the bottle plastic from active use, especially if you use brushes.

The German company Beurer has long established itself as a manufacturer of high-quality health and home appliances. The brand stands out for a series of products designed to care for babies.

To help young mothers, developers from Germany have created an excellent and multifunctional colleague that can significantly help in organizing baby food in the early stages of life.

The electric breast pump with vacuum technology works both from the mains and with the help of batteries, which immediately gives a head start, making it portable.

The main motor unit, made in white and yellow colors, received control buttons and a display that displays all the necessary information in the pumping process: battery level, current mode (out of 10 available), pumping intensity, duration of the device.

It is noteworthy that from the record large number of modes presented, you can choose the best one for yourself, and the “smart” gadget will remember it and immediately offer it next time. The device can work not only in the pumping mode, but also in stimulation, which is incredibly important, especially in the first months of lactation or during lactation crises.

The breast pump comes with a bright 180 ml feeding bottle, by the way, the manufacturer was not greedy and there are two of them in the kit. They also have a handy stand. The cute bee on the outside of the bottle will surely attract the attention of the baby, and if you suddenly decide that you should not be distracted during the meal, you can use any NUK and Avent bottles using the included adapter. Unfortunately, there is no metric on the bottle, which is not very convenient.

Users note that the pumping productivity of the device is quite high, and a comfortable nozzle with a silicone membrane helps to avoid injury.

The Swiss company Medela can rightly be attributed to the leaders in the field of medical equipment and supplies for breastfeeding. In the assortment of the brand there are breast pumps of various levels: from primitive mechanical to advanced stationary. The hero of our review is located somewhere in the center and is ready to surprise even the most demanding user.

At the first acquaintance, the equipment leaves a pleasant impression. In addition to the block on which the control buttons are located, bottles with accessories, you will find pleasant and incredibly useful little things. For example, a wide bottle holder, a convenient lid for a container, a cord that allows you to hang the control unit and unload your hands, a storage bag, and most importantly, a Calma smart pacifier. The latter is incredibly convenient for the baby, as it repeats the mother's nipple and allows him to alternate swallowing and sucking in his own way, that is, a high level of vacuum ensures the flow only when the baby is actively set to work.

The kit also includes a medium-sized funnel, and if you need another one, you can buy it separately. It is very comfortable, but there is no soft pad, which can lead to discomfort at the time of pumping.

The milk pump works both with the help of a mains adapter and batteries, so you can safely take the device on the road.

Management is convenient and understandable. Two phases of work are activated after pressing the top button: first, stimulation is turned on, and after two minutes there is an automatic changeover to the pumping phase. You can also activate the pumping phase manually or adjust the vacuum strength with the + and - buttons.

Taking care of the details of the breast pump is not difficult, as the manufacturer has provided for the possibility of any type of sterilization and even washing in the dishwasher. However, when using aggressive products or automatic washing, the components fade and discolor, and also collect a whole string of scratches on themselves.
