Medela breast pumps are backed by scientific research and developed with input from healthcare professionals. Their two-phase expression technology mimics a baby’s natural sucking rhythm, making pumping more efficient and comfortable.

Not all Medela breast pumps are closed systems. While models like the Medela Freestyle Hands-Free and Medela Sonata use a closed system with overflow protection, others like the Pump In Style with MaxFlow are considered open system pumps. Always check the specific model details to understand how milk and airflow are separated to maintain hygiene.

Yes. Medela pumps are designed for both occasional and frequent use. They’re made from BPA-free materials and tested for safety, durability, and effectiveness, even for long-term, daily pumping.

Medela’s hands-free pumps, like the Freestyle™ Hands-free, use lightweight, wearable cups that fit inside your bra—allowing you to move freely while pumping. Traditional models often require manual holding or external collection bottles.

Medela pumps are designed to work best with Medela bottles and accessories, but some models may be compatible with other brands using adapters. Always check for fit and safety before mixing systems.
