Absolutely love my breasties! Sooo much better than the pump I had before and my husbandhas also noticed how much quieter it is too. Such a life saver especially right now while my baby is going through a biting phase 🫠 plus they are super easy to clean. Also love the light when I want to check how it’s going 🙌🏼
The Breasties were an absolute life saver for me 🙌🏼 I purchased them after I had my second baby and I wish they were around when I had my first! I was a triple feeding mum, so that meant breastfeeding my baby, topping them up with formula and then pumping at every single feed time to try and help my milk supply. I had been using a different brand pump that wasn’t handsfree before coming across the Breasties and it was really making me want to give up after the first couple of days (not to mention it was painful because there were no options when it came to flange size). I got in touch with MC when I discovered Breastfriend, which happened to be on a Friday, and explained my situation. She blew me away with her exceptional customer service and went out of her way to get my Breasties delivered to me the same day so I could start using them right away. I have never experienced amazing customer service like that.
Having a hands free pump made so much difference, I was able to pump while doing other things rather than being stuck sitting in a chair (I was a mum to two under two so I didn’t have time for that!).
My breastfeeding journey didn’t last as long as I would have liked it to, but I can confidently say that I wouldn’t have lasted anywhere near as long as I did if it hadn't been for my Breasties and the amazing service from MC, I’ll forever be grateful 🫶🏼🤍
Very useful to have spare parts in case you losesome. Very quick delivery as well!
A first time mum staple!
They really are my breastfriend 🥹 I didnt know what my breastfeeding journey was going to look like as a first time mum, but I purchased these to have in my back pocket just incase I had supply/latch issues… and sure enough these came in clutch and have been apart of my daily routine multiple times a day for 2 months now. They are absolutely amazing, theres a reason why theyre so hyped and rated 5 stars! Comfy, compact, good suction, the lights?! Game changer. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Thank you ❤️ these pumps have saved my sanity x
I'm so happy to hear that they are treating you well and supporting you, I'm SO glad also that you were prepared. Because I was NOT, and we had sooo many latch issues it was so frustrating. So glad you're doing well, and congratulations on becoming a mama, I hope that everything is going well for you on your magic motherhood journey xxxx
The best pump I’ve ever used (and I’ve used a few!).
This pump set completely changed my pumping journey. I had been struggling with other pumps, but since trying this one I haven’t looked back. It’s incredibly reasonably priced for the quality you get, the suction is amazing, and I especially love the built-in light for middle-of-the-night feeds. The customer service is also exceptional — so quick, helpful and friendly 🫶🏼
loooove that you love them Eillish! So unfortunate you had to go through a few before you found them but glad they're helping out now xxx
Output was so different between left and right until I got the 21mm flange for my left side. Now they’re pretty much even and I have no pain or discomfort during or after pumping.
So great to hear Candy ❤️
100% best thing I ever did to maintain my supply. It is so important to check your nipple size throughout your breastfeeding and pumping journey!
I have 2 different sized nipples (lucky me) so 2 different sizes are needing more maximum comfort and solid output. Thanks MC for having such an extensive range!
Thank you so much! You're so right, flange sizing can change throughout your journey and it's something so many mums don't realise. Love that you've found what works for both sides, that's the goal! <3
Honestly NZ #1 wearable breast pump!
Way more comfortable than my Sleepstore pumps as they were very aggressive on my nipples. There are so many amazing things I love about my breasties!
Such as no leaks when bending down to pick up something, can pump and carry my newborn in my carrier as its so compact!
The discreet sound is a game changer compared to the other pump so I can use it outside without feeling bothered and the built in timer with the nightlight is perfect for night time. No more using my phone to time and I love how its super low tox. No bluetooth is a win win for me!
Lastly MC is so wonderful to deal with. Beautiful mama with amazing customer service. You won't regret it guys!
Oh wow, thank you so much for this beautiful review! It genuinely made my day. So glad the Breasties are working well for you, Tee. Enjoy every cuddle with that little one! xx MC
I’ve been using the Breasties pump for a few weeks and I’m really impressed with it. I was a bit worried it might not work as well for someone with a larger chest, but the suction is amazing and it’s been so reliable. It’s comfortable, easy to use, and has made pumping feel much more manageable. If you’re thinking about buying it I honestly think it’s worth your money! And plus you get amazing support from the owner of Breastfriend if you have any questions at all.
So glad you love your Breasties Elina
These Breast Pumps are the best on the market! Comfy, easy to use, quiet and even have a light in them for those night time pumps. I truly wish i knew about them earlier in my pumping journey. You can really tell that the founder of this brand knows what mamas want/ need in a pump! xx
Thank you so much, Abbey! This means the world. So glad you're loving them, wishing you'd found us sooner too, but so happy you're here now! xx MC
My pump was starting to slow down on suction so I got these and it feels brand new again! So easy to replace and the quick shipping meant I didn't need to wait long to have my pump up an running again. Product 100%, customer services 100% thanks team! x
Thanks so much! So glad the parts got your pump feeling brand new again and happy the quick shipping helped! <3 xx MC
I’ve been meaning to write this review for a while but have been putting it off because I really wanted to do it justice 🤍
My breastfeeding and pumping journey didn’t start off easy since my baby began in SCBU, and it took me a little while to establish supply. When it came time to transition back home and eventually prepare for returning to work, I honestly felt quite nervous about how I’d manage pumping alongside everything else. As a first time mum as well, I have struggled with confidence in myself and how my supply is.
Finding BreastFriend pumps was such a turning point for me. I needed wearable pumps for the discreetness (especially knowing I’d be pumping at work), but what truly surprised me was the output.. it has been amazing and so consistent for me over the past 6 months. I didn’t feel like I had to sacrifice efficiency for convenience, which has been a huge relief.
They’re also incredibly easy to use, which makes such a difference when you’re already juggling so much as a mum.
What also makes this product special is the customer service. It feels so personal, supportive, and attentive 🥹 you are not just buying the product, MC genuinely cares and supports your journey.
These pumps have helped ease my anxiety about transitioning from home to work as a FTM, and made the whole experience feel much more manageable and empowering. I still have the “Wow..I can do this!?” moment every now and then 😅
If you’re on the fence (especially if you’re returning to work) or need something discreet without compromising output.. I can not recommend them enough 🤍
Oh Sharleen, this review has me all teary. Thank you for taking the time to share your journey so openly, SCBU starts are tough, and the fact that you've navigated establishing supply, returning to work, AND the mental load of being a FTM is honestly incredible. You should be so proud of yourself.
I'm so grateful the Breasties have been part of making it feel a little more manageable. Keep having those 'wow, I can do this!?' moments, you absolutely can, and you are.

Measure your Nips and get that Flange!!!!
Absolutely LOVED what a difference the flanges have made to the milk supply, and the pumping… she’s FLOWING! There’s nothing else to say, measure and flange up! You won’t regret it
I’ve been using this hands-free breast pump and honestly it’s been such a game changer. Being able to pump while still getting things done (especially with a newborn!) makes life so much easier.
It’s really straightforward to use, and I love that it pulls apart easily for cleaning and goes back together without any fuss — which is a huge plus when you’re already tired.
It also has multiple function settings, so you can adjust it to what feels most comfortable and effective for you. Overall, it’s made pumping so much more convenient and less stressful. Highly recommend for any busy mum!
After having a poor pumping experience with my first baby due to struggling to have to find time to sit there while attached to a pump, I knew I wanted something different with my second bub. After loads of researching options for a wearable pump, I decided on the Breastfriend despite being relatively new to the market and am so glad I did!
From the moment they arrived you can tell a lot of thought and care has gone into this product.
The pumps are so easy to put together, I love the different functions and I manage to get a great output using them. The customer service has always been so speedy and helpful anytime I’ve reached out.
I highly recommend using the ruler and ordering the correct flange size and also be sure to wear a bra that keeps the pumps tight against your chest to get the best output. Thanks for making the pumping experience so much better!
Once we finally got our pumps, they have been a God sent. So much easier to pop them in and go about my day, work, clean, etc. it’s helping with supply as I put the pump on the other side while my son feeds, works so well. Especially exclusively breastfeeding and being back at work 8 weeks post partum has really helped me out. Great service, transparent and honest. Thank you! Game changer
These are hands down the best silver cups! I had used the silverettes with my 2nd a few years ago but when I used them this time around I reacted to the metals in it- it ended up making the situation so much more unbearable until I found these! The silicone ring makes it much comfier and they dont slide around even over night and the higher silver % meant i didnt react to it! These quickly became a favourite in our kete but also my go idea for new moms!
I had been looking for a pump 4weeks prior to getting this one and everywhere only sold 1 motor and 2milk casings so that was a plus, the suction is great, I have had a spillage only once but that was because I didnt seal it properly and it was running down my top, my boobs are on the bigger side and I was a bit hesitant about the fit but all in all I love this product, it looks like little boobies on your boobies🤣 definitely would recommend this product because it definitely emptied out, I use the max setting because I was using a hand pump before and I was afraid the suction wouldnt be the same but it definitely does 10/10
The silicone measuring tool that came with the pump made finding the right size super easy, and once they arrived they were a great fit. Very soft, flexible silicone makes for a comfortable pump and are easy to place and remove for cleaning.
High quality, comfortable with O rings, and come with protective velvet bag. Most of all, easy to wear and do the trick!
Excellent to have a bonus set to reduce the frequency of cleaning parts when exclusively pumping or returning to work.
Hands down, incredible and affordable pump. I'm 2 weeks postpartum to a NICU babe and switched from my hospital loan pump to this 4 days ago and haven't picked up the other pump since! I'm an experienced pumper but this is my first handsfree pump, and it is truly life changing. This week I've pumped while helping with bathtime, cooking dinner, vacuuming, and in bed while taking a moment to rest. No more do I need to be seated at a table or scared to pick something up off the floor (or open the door to the postman...). I really think you've hit a winning design!
Things that I love about it
- pump stands up steady on its own when setting down to prevent spills
- super easy button operations, no fussing around with apps or wires/tubing, just a couple of presses and you are away! And bonus night lights to get the pump on right in the sleep deprived night pumps.
- feels very comfortable to wear and fits in my slouchy postpartum Maternity bras and singlets easily
- hospital grade suction but still very comfy to use and no nipple damage or pinching (with correct sized flanges)
- outputs the same if not more than my hospital loaned double electric pump
- was so easy to use the silicone measuring card and get the right sized flanges first go
- really easy to clean, sterilize and put back together
- great to have the stopper at the top to stop spillage when leaning forward or moving around, and such a clean pour from the top with very minimal wastage
- pretty quiet too, my big kids didn't really notice the noise until I was right up close to them
- and most of all handsfree!!!
10/10 pump
