The Swing's compact size makes it easy to pump wherever you are. View larger. | Two-Phase Expression Technology
The Swing features two-phase expression technology, an advanced pumping pattern that mimics a baby's natural nursing rhythm. This system works in two modes: the simulation mode and the expression mode. The simulation mode simulates your baby's initial rapid sucking to start your milk flowing, while the expression mode simulates your baby's slower, deeper suckling to express your milk gently yet efficiently. These modes work together to make pumping a quick and painless process. Comfortable and Convenient
Compact enough to easily fit in your purse, this pump is both safe and comfortable to use, whether you're home, at work, or traveling. The Swing includes many features that help make pumping a positive experience. First, the one touch let down button lets you start pumping immediately, and results in faster milk flow. The included massaging SoftFit breast shield provide exceptional comfort, and the convenient, compact size of the pump lets you place it on a table top, or attach it to the belt clip or included shoulder/neck strap. You can even store it in your purse, briefcase or the included carrying bag for pumping on the go. Additionally, the adjustable vacuum and speed allows for customized pumping. When it comes to safety, the 100 percent Bisphenol-A (BPA) free Swing ensures a hygienic pumping experience and fresh, chemical-free milk for your baby. It also comes with two durable plastic storage containers and lids for sanitary storage of breast milk. About Medela

 Arrived dented from Set 4 Baby October 11, 2008
Warning: Don't buy products from Amazon's vendors. This one arrived dented, and the seller (set 4 baby) and Amazon refused to do anything about it. There I was trying to get ready for my baby -- due any day -- and I'm dealing with a box sent with zero padding, and a seller who told me that if I opened it, they wouldn't take it back. I sent it back, confirmed by FedEx, and they haven't credited one penny. Their policy is a 15% restocking charge, even though they caused the problem, but actually they've not refunded anything.
 A good buy September 24, 2008
I am a stay at home mom who wanted a good electric pump that would last, but I didn't need the full on double pump like the pump in style or similar type things as I did not need to pump every day. Most of the electric pumps that were less expensive had many reviews claiming they broke quickly, and I did not want to waste money on something that would break. This pump doesn't cost much more, and also has excellent reviews. It has worked great for me, is easy to clean and easy to use. I have not had any trouble with the flap part falling out mid pumping, so perhaps they have upgraded the product since that was an issue. It is a great mid-grade pump and at an excellent price. It was definitely worth the money for me. I've had it five months now and I've never had any trouble with it and have always been able to pump adequate amounts of milk with it. I'd recommend it to anyone who plan on only pumping once a day or less, but still wants a good electric pump.
great pump! August 19, 2008
This pump is great! It does the job really well. I initially got it prior to giving birth to my son with the intention of using it scarcely, hence deciding on what I deduced from reviews was the best pump out there, and only needing a single pump. It was the best bang for the buck for my needs. As it turns out I've been pumping daily pretty much since the first month. I've had problems since the begining with my left breast/nipple while breastfeeding and I had to pump it pretty much daily. Now I actually pump daily both breasts before going to bed and store the milk for the next day. I wish I had a double pump, as it would cut my time pumping in half, but the single Swing pump works fine. It takes about 40 min to pump both breasts, and it can get pretty loud the higher you pump up the suction mode. Amazon had the best price anywhere for it, and with the $25 coupon they had sent us it was an even greater deal! I hate that the double breast pumps are so expensive, but I'm glad I can live with the single version.
On another note... I've been using the pump now for 4 mths, and the SoftFit breast shield that came with it has morphed into a "stretched-out looking" shape. I don't think it's suctioning power is as great as when I first started using it (though it still does the job fine) and I'm assuming it needs to be replaced. I know they sell them individually, so I plan to get a new one to replace it.
An excellent pump for the money August 19, 2008

This is a really fantastic pump. The first phase really encourages let-down. This feature is great if you don't have that engorged feeling before you start pumping. I've used the Medela Double Pump and the Pump in Style, and this one is my favorite of the three. It's easy to use and small enough to cart around without taking up too much space. I use it about 5-7 times a week and find it sufficient for my needs. It's probably not the best choice if you work full time or are exclusively pumping, but for a mom who needs to pump a few bottles a week, this pump is perfect.
Pump Stopped working August 13, 2008
hi,
I started using the swing pump after my baby was born. The pump worked fine for the first 2 weeks. After that it's efficiency reduced dramatically, in that, it started pumping 1/4 of what it used to earlier.
I know that i'm producing normally as i frequently overflow, but the pump just does not work...
Working with customer support to see what can be done..For that kind of money this is certainly not expected.
Will send updates if any..
