As a second-time mom juggling work, family, and, well, life, I’ve tried my fair share of breast pumps. Some were loud, some were slow, and most just didn’t fit into my daily routine. But then I found the Elvie Pump. It’s sleek, it’s quiet, and it’s designed by a brand that really gets moms. If you’re tired of being tethered to the wall or handwashing way too many parts, keep reading. This pump is everything I didn’t know I needed – and then some. Here's why I swear by it...
The Elvie Pump’s wireless design lets me move freely, whether I’m chasing my toddler, working in the office, or even doing a few quick errands. The best part? I can control it all from the incredibly impressive app. I can start it, stop it, adjust speed or suction, all without touching the pump itself. The sensors even track output (accurately!), so I don’t have to second-guess if I’m getting the right amount.
My mom friends cannot stop talking about how quiet this pump is. Gone are the days of locking myself in a bathroom to pump – I wear it on the go, and nobody knows. Don’t let its quietness fool you, though: this pump simultaneously offers great suction thanks to its Smart Rhythms™ feature and has seven intensity settings and two modes to help boost milk flow. I’ve actually found that I can get as much milk as I did with my old medical-grade pump.
This pump is so sleek and comfortable that I often forget I’m even wearing it. It’s discreet too – I’ve realized that’s because my breast is more flush with the Elvie compared to other pumps I’ve tried. It’s designed to fit in most standard nursing bras, and it does. And the last thing I’ll say here: I can even breastfeed while wearing it, which was a struggle for me in the past.
Milk spills are the worst. After using other pumps, I’ve dealt with messy leaks and wet clothes. But with the Elvie, I realized how easy it is to avoid that hassle. The design keeps the container at the bottom, so there’s no messy flipping or spilling.
I’m so impressed (and grateful!) that Elvie understands moms and designs products that actually fit seamlessly into our daily lives. This pump doesn’t just work – it’s easy to clean, durable, and absolutely worth the investment. If you want a pump that’s going to last and make you feel like you again, this is it.
