Anyone have Ameda Double Electric Pump?

Is this a good pump? This is the one that is 100% covered by my health insurance in 2013.

TBH I was waiting for the 2013 information to come out before I researched anything since I was hoping that I would get full coverage.

I had a friend that had it and liked it, but she was also a SAHM so I don't know how it would hold up if you were pumping often.

Yes, it's a good one. Closed system, so arguably better than Medela.

I guess I should add that I plan to pump at work assuming all goes well.

I have it and I love it but I don't have anything to compare it.

I love that it is a closed system. It works perfectly fine. I used it hard core the first 3 weeks of DS' life (every 2 hours around the clock, pump and dump).

It's also cheaper, but since you don't have to pay that doesn't matter.

It's a good pump. I used one with DD for almost a year and am using one now with DS. After being sick and having AF return I did briefly rent a hospital-grade Symphony and I much prefer the Ameda flange system. It's much easier to clean.

I had one for my son, used it at work for about 4 months. I loved it and plan on using it again with my son that is due in April. It is really nice that it has a closed system.

I have that pump and use it at home. I can empty completely in about 15-20 minutes on max speed. My work supplies us with the Ameda platinum hospital grade pump and I can honestly empty in under ten minutes.

A mom in my bf group has one & really likes it.
