Description
Spectra are very proud of the M1 portable single electric breast pump. This sturdy little unit has everything needed for reliable pumping on the go. Weighing in at under 300g, Spectra have jam-packed a powerful, strong motor into the pump which will give you plenty of oomph for effective pumping.
What features does the M1 have?
- Letdown mode – switch with a touch to the letdown mode, which is a light, quick mode designed to speed the start of milk flow, just the way a baby does. This may not be an important feature for a new mum, but if you have an older baby or are going back to work, a letdown mode really helps.
- Easy adjustment of cycle speed & suction strength – touch button controls allow you to adjust suction strength and cycle with one touch. As you increase the suction, the speed will slow down (see the S2 Hospital Grade Breast Pump) if you want even more control over cycle program).
- Inbuilt rechargeable battery – yes, we know you love this feature. Use your M1 while plugged into mains, or just use it wherever you like from its inbuilt rechargeable battery.
- Portability – lovely and compact, you will find the M1 easy to transport and store.
- Closed system – like all Spectra breast pumps, the M1 has a closed system, which means that there is no way for milk to get into the pump motor. Milk particles in the pump motor can lead to the growth of mould and is a potential source of virus transmission.
- Ability to Use as a Double Pump – just add a second shield set and some bottles to your order.
What are the negatives?
- Doesn’t provide as much flexibility over the pump program as the S2 (but still more than other pumps).
- Is noiser than the S2 and Dew models (but not as noisy as other pumps – we do try our best to keep the noise down!).
- If you are exclusively pumping or needing to rely on a pump to establish supply, we do always recommend you use a hospital grade breast pump – i.e. the S2 or Dew 350.
If you have an M1 don’t forget to give us your feedback!

I’m so glad that we had bought this breast pump before my baby arrived. I’ve used it from the first day we were back from the hospital.
I’m having problem with breast feeding since my baby was born. As a first time mum, I was so worry that my little one couldn’t get enough milk. My baby kept crying and didn’t get on to my nipples every time I tried to breast feed her. M1 breast pump becomes my solution. It helps me to produce more milk than I thought. I’m now always having enough milk for my baby and some to store in the fridge.
M1 breast pump works well and so convenience. The pump’s size is great and light weight, I can take it anywhere in my hand bag.
M1 pump price is great. It’s cheaper than other pumps in the market. There was Christmas special 20% off the original price when purchased my M1 breast pump which makes the price so awesome.

My wife and I did a lot of research into the different breast pumps available and what would suit her the best while keeping the cost down. It wasn’t until she was reading some reviews on other breast pumps that she first saw the Spectra brand. The reviews we saw raved about Spectra so we checked it out for ourselves. We did not see one bad review on any of the Spectra pumps which gave us so much confidence. We wanted to spend as little money as possible, and didn’t need a big hospital grade pump so we chose the M1 portable double breast pump. She has actually used the pump a lot more than originally intended as our baby had a low birth weight. It has performed amazingly! As good if not better than the hospital grade Medella Symphony she used in the hospital. It is a god send that it has a reachable battery & doesn’t have to be plugged into the wall to be used. The size is great and is so easy to use. The price is amazing too for the quality and the fact it is a double pump. Well worth the investment. If you are planning to pump for at least a few months it is cheaper than hiring a pump, but delivers a superior output to others on the market. The bottles are great too. Our baby drinks from them with ease. We would recommend Spectra to any new mum.

We’ve just had our first baby and because of a bit more weight loss than normal, and slow gain, the midwives advised to supplement with some formula, and also to express regularly, to try and build more supply. The M1 has been easy to use and am very happy with it. It is v small and look fwd to ability to use it on battery when I return to work. Happy with the quality of the Spectra range and also the good service and very fast delivery.
The support staff were very helpful and provided good references for further info.

I recently returned to work & needed to upgrade my single pump to a double breast pump to make expressing easier. I’m so glad I purchased the spectra M1! It is quieter than my old pump, easier to use and far more effective! And the fact that it’s rechargeable saves me so much money by not having to buy batteries all the time! I would gladly recommend Spectra to anyone needing a breast pump!! I LOVE MY SPECTRA M1!!

The customer service was awesome! My questions were answered immediately — with a friendly and helpful response. I have purchased a Spectra M1 and the item was delivered to my door step on the next day.
The product was as described — light weight and cute. Haven’t got a chance to use it yet but the functions on the machine looks simple and straight forward. Would recommend this to a friend.

As a ftm I did alot of research into pump types and brands. Came across Spectra and the reviews were amazing I couldn’t go past them. The prices are also very comparable. Few more weeks until I can try the pump but after turning it on I can safely say its going to do the job perfectly!

I didn’t know about this brand until a friend recommended it. I trialed the S1 double pump for a while and finally decided to purchase the M1. I placed the order on a Tuesday and the pump arrived on Friday of the same week.
Although I was expecting the M1 to be less powerful compared to the S1, I can’t feel a difference. The M1 is as powerful and much easier to carry around as it is considerably smaller. It saves me a lot of time and is easy to use. This is an excellent product if you are looking for a portable pump at a reasonable price.

I bought this pump to replace a little manual pump I had been using for the first few months (only pump occasionally) and am quite happy with it. My pumped volume/pumping time unfortunately doesn’t seem to much different to what I could get with the manual pump however its great not having to actually do the pumping myself so still worth it. I love the size and portability. Also good to know that replacement parts are able to be bought at reasonable prices and the customer service is great too.

Love the M1 – it makes my lunch breaks at work so much easier! I can now eat while I pump and not in the 3 or so minutes I had left after manually pumping. Love that it’s a rechargeable unit, it’s light and super affordable. Also love the let down mode.
I think they could review the instruction booklet and I would have bought a couple of silicon massage inserts had I known it didn’t come with any (I should have checked) as I find my breasts do get a bit sore after using the pump without the inserts. Also could do with a carry bag to fit all the bits in – I’m currently using a tote and feel like there’s lots of little parts just rattling around in there… All in all though, it’s a fantastic little pump and it has made my life much much easier! Thank you Spectra!

I wasn’t expecting to need a breast pump straight away but after a lot if research thought I would get a spectra pump so I was organised when bubs arrived. I ended up having an emergency c-section and my baby ended up in special care nursery so I wasn’t able to breastfeed him in the beginning. The hospital started me on the ameda pump and it was great, they asked me to bring in my pump and as they hasn’t heard of spectra they were really interested to see how it went. I was nervous to begin with but extremely excited and relieved to find that the M1 was amazing and comparable to the hospital pump I had been using without costing $1000’s! The midwives were also very impressed at the efficiency and quietness of the pump and wanted to photocopy the pamphlet to show other mums. I explained how quick the service was too which in a situation like this would be crucial. Thank you Spectra, I use my M1 everyday and love it! The let down feature has been really good too, especially in these first few weeks of breastfeeding a tiny baby , just knowing I can provide those top ups with such ease makes it really comforting!
