Philips Avent Manual breast pump SCF290/12 with VIA Storage System is rated 4.2 out of 5 by 16.

Rated 4 out of 5 by vic3008 from Easy and efficient to use I bought this product after reading some reviews on Amazon. This product came out quite well and the price was also very reasonable. I only required a breast pump for occasional use and I found this pump ideal as it was very easy to assemble and get the hang of. I was fully expecting to have a battle with expressing breast milk but after reading through the leaflet (which was also extremely helpful) I managed to express with ease which I was delighted about. The only comment I would have is to include a larger bottle with the pump as sometimes I would express more than 4oz on one breast and would quickly have to decant it before continuing. I suppose if I used the bottles then this would not have been an issue though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by sarah84860 from would recommend I have 2 breast pumps and always express more milk when i use the avent pump, its comfortable, easy to use and i can take it out with me once its sterilised as the pump includes covers to seal it. You can attach bottles or milk storage pots which makes it easy to storage milk in fridge or freezer. The pump completely disassembles so that it can be thoroughly cleaned however took a while to learn how to put it back together again! I find that the milk leaks out from underneath the soft shell if you tilt it and also milk collects in the top of the pump, not a problem for me as i was producing alot of milk however I don't like the thought of wasting valuable breast milk!!!

Rated 1 out of 5 by milliemum from Really uncomfortable Tried this product as needed to express milk as little one wouldn't latch properly, but found the pump to be extremely uncomfortable and a waste of money as could not tolerate using it. There seems to be a really sharp plastic rim on the inside of the pump which pinched my skin. Tried numerous times to reposition pump but no joy and had to stop using.

Rated 5 out of 5 by jacksmum804 from a super squeezer! I bought the pump on sale not expecting to actually need it, but my son wasn't latching and I still wanted him to have breast milk. The pump is easy to use and I prefer it to an electric one as it means I can express at night without disturbing my husband. I find it comfortable to use although my hands get tired and cramp sometimes.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Rachal from Lost my milk In terms of use, this breast pump is simple and easy to put together and use. However, I found there is insufficient thread on the bottle neck to hold the bottle in place and as you pump the bottle comes undone and so during one expressing session I ended up losing all the milk I had collected as it fell off - soul destroying!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Apple24 from Brilliant, easy to use The manual breast pump was great, very effective and did not take hours to express a full bottle. Only occasionally it was squeaky which was noisy when my daughter was asleep. Easy to use,dismantle and sterilise. Overall a fantastic product!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Nayo8 from Great product! This has been one of the best purchases I have ever made. Strongly recommend. Easy to use and easy to put together. It tend to give a squeaky sound after while. But it's nothing major. Great price! And good product .

Rated 5 out of 5 by 0786jules from easy to use and was very efficient at pumping milk fairly quickly I used this pump only when I wanted to leave my baby with my partner. I found it easy to dismantle, clean and put back together as well as being easy to pump milk efficiently. I also found it comfortable to use.
