The Swing's compact size makes it easy to pump wherever you are. View larger. | Convenient and Leak Proof The Pump and Save bags are specially designed to securely store breast milk. They feature a quick cleaning, leak-proof zipper top for easy open and close as well as to keep milk safely contained. In addition, the no-spill, stand-up bottom lets you rest the filled bag on a countertop while recording the name, date and time in the convenient labeling area. And once in the refrigerator or freezer, these bags line up and stay in place for effortless, space-saving storage. Safe and Sanitary Storage Because it's so important that everything in contact with baby be clean, sanitary and chemical free, the Pump and Save bags are made to be safe for the collection, storage and feeding of breast milk. Each bag is double-walled to remain fresh during long-term storage, and all parts that come in contact with breast milk are 100-percent BPA/DEHP free. Made of special plastic, these bags also retain breast milk's beneficial properties so every feeding truly nourishes your growing child. Easy to Use When it's time to store milk or feed baby, Medela knows you don't have extra time to struggle with complicated procedures. That's why the Pump and Save Bags are made to be easy to set up and move to the refrigerator or freezer. For optimum convenience, the exclusive self-stick strap attaches directly to the breast shield for fast and easy set-up without any struggling with special attachments. Then you're ready to pump directly into the bag. Once you begin, clear markers tell you when you reach the 150 millimeter mark, which helps ensure that milk, which expands as it freezes, won't cause a mess once stored.

Expensive, take up a lot of space, messy May 28, 2008 I am pumping/ have pumped a lot of milk, and the problem with the Medela bags is manifold. First of all, you can maybe pump 6 oz into the bag MAX. While this might be enough for most people, it often wasn't for me. (Lansinoh and Gerber can hold 10 oz). Secondly, the Medela bags don't freeze flat,which took up a LOT of space in my freezer. (The other two bags can freeze flat, and I just line them up in a shoe box) Medela bags are also very expensive. I don't see the big deal in cleaning a couple of bottles each time I pump. I still have to clean up the shields. Also, it's hard to tell how much milk you have when you pump into a bag. I find it easier and more accurate to pump into a bottle and put EXACTLY what I want into each bag. Finally, I agree with others that this is a pain in the butt to pour. I spilled a lot of milk with Medela bags. Between the Gerber and Lansinoh, the Lansinoh is much stronger.
ok, but not the best April 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Medela Pump & Storage bags are ok, but I like the ones from Lansinoh much better, which are easier to store and are a little big bigger
Good Product April 6, 2008 The medela bags are a good product. I like that they stand when full. They seal and freeze very well. I have also tried the Lansinoh brand and find he medela are more durable (the plastic is not as soft and easy to nick as the Lansinoh). They are a bit costly however and the medela company should consider better perforation on the top of the bag where you tear off the section that you can use to pump directly into the bag. Although you can easily pump into the bags, I find it difficult to accurately measure the volume in each bag so I pump into the bottles and transfer to the bags. If you are not going to freeze and are just pumping for the next day or so, you could save money by using the Lansinoh brand.
Good option for "Storage" March 31, 2008 well... I thought I could just put attach this bags to my breastpump, is a little messy i must say, and only when I have "time" I do all the ritual of attaching the bag to the bottle, sooo.... I just use the bags for milk storage, which means, I use the breastpump plus a bottle and after that I transfer the milk to this bags, they stand up, no leaking and they save a lot of space. You may think is silly do all this in 2 steps, but that's is the only way for me to be 100% sure I'm not going to lose not even one drop of my milk *sigh*. Good luck
Not for use with Avent pumps March 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
So maybe this should have been obvious - buy the storage bags made by the same company you bought your pump from. But it wasn't to me, I did, and things have been tricky.
You cannot pump from an Avent pump directly into the bag (the pump head is too big), which means pouring, which inevitably means some level of mess.
Otherwise, the bags are fine, storing milk nicely.
