– Ardo Calypso Double Plus Electric Breast Pump - Ultra Quiet - Single or Double Pumping - Mumsnet Best - BPA-Free - Swiss Medical Device

Overall great product, compared really well to hospital grade pumps, incredibly easy to use and versatile and finally customer service is excellent. I used a pump in hospital and was not disappointed with the Ardo pump I used at home. It comes with a lot of different sizes pump heads which makes a SIGNIFICANT difference. Other pumps don't have this (you might be able to buy pump heads seperately), Ardo sends you various different sizes as standard and you can try them out to see which works for you. The pump is nice and strong and has a very simple to use set up where you can vary suction strength and auction frequency. This is great and works very well. It is portable - works both with a mains connection and with batteries! It is super clean and totally mess free. It comes with milk collection bottles but not baby bottles. I think this is a huge plus because it allows you to use which ever brand bottles for your baby (and as any parent will know, you might end up trying different bottles to see which works for you so would not want your pump to tie you to a certain brand of bottle). It was dispatched incredibly quickly and delivered perfectly. I ordered at 10am one morning and had it with me less than 24h later (for no extra cost). I ordered double pump but have only used it as single - my choice entirely. It is also relatively quiet and like I said, very efficient. Have compared to Tommie tippie and medela pumps that a friend has and I still think Ardo is better (medela might come close too, but the Tommie tippie one is definitely not even a competitor). I would thoroughly recommend this and I don't understand why its not more well known!

After doing extensive research I settled on this pump. Originally used the Medela swing electric pump but really didn’t get on with it and found I couldn’t get different sized attachments easily- I was finding the standard 24mm was rubbing to the point it cracked my nipple. I would say I have large ish nipples and 32FF boobs normally (some breast pumps seem better for smaller boobs which is why I mention this!!) The reason I went for the Ardo double (even though I only need to express one at a time) was because of the multitude of different size options that’s come with the double pump for only £20 more (31mm, 28mm) plus I like to sterilise them a lot! The pump is really easy to assemble and use, plus you don’t have to lean forward horrendously to catch all the milk. There is a 28mm silicone cushion that fits into the 31mm funnel and that makes pumping soooo comfortable. The unit is very quiet- I use this in the night and it doesn’t wake hubby or baby. I’d absolutely recommend- after 4 weeks of pumping pain this has been a real relief!!

Edit: This isn't a very well made piece of kit. Only a week after the refund window the electrical part of the kit failed, I have bought replacement parts but the main box makes a squeaking sound for every pump and the suction has significantly decreased. Leaving me in a rubbish position because I obviously need to keep up with regular pumping so it's either I buy another one or give up and use formula. So I bought the double Calypso after being lent a single one by the NHS. It's a good electric pump and does what it says on the tin. I like how you get provided with different sized flanges catering for different shaped nipples. I wouldn't say I'm able to extract any more milk than with my wearable with this product, which was slightly disappointing as I was told closed systems were more efficient. The thing that bothers me is that I need to use both hands to keep the pumps in place, so it's very difficult to change the settings between stimulating and expressing as you need to stop was your doing to free a hand to change vacuum / cycles. Would be better if you could switch cycles automatically. If I knew how annoying it was I probably wouldn't have bought it.

I bought this for my wife and its far better than the Tommee Tippee electric pump. Its superior in terms of the following: Pros - Quieter and you barely can hear the electric pump - My wife seems to produce more breast milk with this and its less painful. It also mimics similar process to our little girl feeding. - Easier to clean and not many parts - has dual functionality Con's - slightly expensive but worth spending to get the right quality product

Very quiet, easy to put together. My husband was surprised by how quiet it was! I haven't had it long but seems to be getting a good amount of milk out. Very easy to use. I like the fact that it has a range of settings which enable you to find the best setting for you and also that it comes with 3 different shield sizes, again meaning that you can make it more comfortable for you personally. Also a benefit is that fact that you can still chose to pump only one breast if you wish.

This breastpump has been fantastic for us: I used its big sister in the hospital and loved it, so I decided to get the same brand when I struggled with breastfeeding directly. I've used this every single day, six times per day, for 2.5 months now and it's like my best friend. I have the double version since it saves time to pump both breasts at once, and it works super well. It's pretty quiet, it's quite sleek, and you can get different inserts for the flanges. It's easy to assemble and to sterilise between uses. My only complaint is probably that the buttons are very stiff.

Eccellent. The pump has the vacuum and pumping cycles dials that helps regulate the intensity of milk expression. Furthermore the product comes with plenty accessories I found useful the videos online. I recommend it!!

J'ai acheté ce tire-lait parce que c'est celui que j'avais en location et que je fais un allaitement longue durée. Il est vraiment super, parfait et j'en suis très contente. Il se transporte facilement, fait peu de bruit et fonctionne même sur pile. Je l'utilise en double pompage et il est efficace et rapide. Vraiment rien à redire, j'en suis très contente et je le conseille vivement.

Avevo provato la versione professionale del Tiralatte Ardo noleggiandola in farmacia appena tornata a casa dall'ospedale e mi ero trovata davvero bene: molto silenzioso e delicato. Non avendo più bisogno di usarlo quotidianamente l'ho restituito alla farmacia. Non sapendo che esistesse questa versione compatta della Ardo, ho acquistato quelli della Medela (Mini electric e manuale), ma si dal primo utilizzo mi sono trovata molto male (dolore al capezzolo, scarsa estrazione e molto rumoroso quello elettrico). Ho provato anche con la versione Swing, sempre della Medela, ma il risultato è stato lo stesso. Quando ho scoperto che esisteva questa versione compatta della Ardo l'ho acquistata e non posso che parlarne bene. Come quello professionale questo prodotto è molto silenzioso, delicato ed efficace nell'estrazione. Super consigliato! Inoltre costa molto meno di più noti prodotti Medela.

Mein Kleiner ist jetzt 8 Wochen und ich pumpe seitdem er wenige Tage alt war wegen einer schweren Brustentzündung komplett für ihn ab. Am Anfang leider nur wenig, da bei mir die Milchbildung natürlich komplett gestört war, aber inzwischen bekommt er komplett Muttermilch und ich kann sogar etwas einfrieren. Diese Milchpumpe hat mir wegen der individuellen Einstellung von Zyklenzahl und Sog (getrennt voneinander einstellbar) sehr zugesagt.Dies erlaubt mir während des Abpumpgangs dieses so zu ändern, wie ich es gerade brauche und erleichtert das Auslösen eines Milchspendereflexes. Das mag nicht für jeden so sein und andere kommen mit Pumpen von Herstellern besser zurecht, die sich nach zwei Minuten automatisch umschalten (z.B. Medela). Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen käuflichen persönlichen Milchpumpen im ähnlichen oder höheren Preissegment, handelt es sich hier um ein geschlossenes System. Das bedeutet die Milch kann durch eine Sperre nicht in Schlauch und Gehäusse zurückfliessen. So werden Bakterien aus den Schlauch nicht in die abgepumpte Milch gespült und es kann sich im Gehäusse kein Schimmel bilden. Leider sind viele andere Milchpumpen offene Systeme unter anderen Pumpen namenhafter Hersteller wie Medela, Avent, Nuk etc. (Keine Sorge, Krankenhauspumpen sind geschlossen). Dank des geschlossenen System kann die Calypso problemlos beim nächsten Kind wiederverwendet werden, verliehen werden und so weiter... Dazu kommt die zusätzliche Garantieleistung von 400h Betriebsstunden, die zeitunabhängig ist. Mütter, die weniger als ich abpumpen, etwa für die für die Arbeit, Termine oder Freiräume, auch noch fürs zweite oder dritte Kind in Genuss von Garantieleistungen kommen, selbst wenn mehrere Jahre zwischen ihnen liegen. Die Garantie erlischt auch nicht bei Verleih oder Weiterverkauf. Sehr schön ist wirklich die Lautstärke der Milchpummpe: Leise! Das höre ich auch immer wieder von Frauen aus den Bekanntenkreis, die begsitert darauf reagieren. Ich kann nebenbei telefonieren oder TV schauen (sehr nett mitten in der Nacht) und das Kind oder mein Mann stört sich auch nicht daran. Das Zubehörpaket ist wirklich gut. Verschiedene Brustschildgrößen sind wichtig, damit man für sich die ideale Größe herausfinden kann. Diese kann sich übrigens im Laufe der Stillzeit ändern, also immer nett alle zu haben. Die 8 Abpumpflaschen können mit üblichen Saugern aus den Handel ausgestattet und zum Füttern verwendet werden, wobei ich persönlich daheim in andere Flaschen umfülle, aber wenn ich unterwegs abpumpe ist es nett nicht noch zusätzlich etwas mitschleppen zu müssen. Die kleine Kühltasche mit den drei Gefrierakkus hält die Milch lange auf der richtigen Temperatur, etwa für den Transport nach Hause. Das Umbauset für eine kleine Handpumpe ist sicherlich nützlich, wenn man sie mal braucht, etwa um bei schmerzhaften Stauungen unter der Dusche den Druck wegzunehmen, habe ich aber persönlch noch nicht ausprobiert. Die große Tasche bietet für alle Zubehörteile guten Platz und passende Fächer, beziehunsgweise Taschen..paar andere Dinge passen auch noch hinein. Gut sind auch die beiliegenden Ersatzteile (Verschleißteile), die aber auch sehr günstig nachgekauft werden können...wichtig wenn man lange abpumpt. Bis jetzt habe ich die Verschleißteile aber noch nicht ersetzen müssen. Ich kann jeder Frau, die häufiger elektrisch abpumpen möchte, zu dieser Milchpumpe raten. Wer sich noch unsicher ist vor der Geburt, kann aber dank der schnellen Lieferzeit auch bis nach der Geburt warten, da im Notfall (Entzündung, Krankheit des Kindes) der Frauenarzt oder der Kinderarzt ein Rezept für eine Pumpe ausstellt.
