Spectra Handsfree Shield Cups [Pack 2]

Bought these as i was excited of an easier system that would free hands more, but a number of features made it difficult to see any benefit. The limited flange sizes likely contributebto poor suction, I’m a 20mm so 24mm is too big. The cups are huge and therefore very bulky when stuffed in a bra. Additionally the design prevents you from using any heating pads when pumping, and I really wish the tubing was longer to compensate the higher mount. My biggest peeve was simply that it was difficult to see the flange to line it up and near impossible to see inside for actual flow or even just the collection of milk inside and out of the valve. Also with all the parts these have more pieces that clean between use
I’m glad I bought these on sale but disappointed as it was a waste despite the hype. Also, who in PR approved a review about someone saying they go grocery shopping with these on? On their phone right? It’s not so easy to strap yourself to a pump and carry it around to shop one-handed.

Bitterly disappointed. Super fan of Spectra S1. However the hands free system drains 25% of what l normally pump using the standard flanges. Breasts still contain alot of milk after use. I would suggest do not purchase. Just use the standard flanges and buy a cheap sports bra and cut holes in each cup to hold the flange to make a handsfree system. Sorry ….not as amazing as Spectra products usually are.
