Thank you for your honest and unbiased review. So many others clearly favor certain expensive brands, which made it difficult to get an honest review. You have helped a FTM quickly be able to decide which pump to put on the registry💖
A problem I discovered in my research and unfortunately AFTER ordering the M1 has no available replacement pump parts I can find. So this could be problematic! I’m hoping I can return when it arrives to get Bella baby.
After two month of using the S12 I will say that a lot of movement will lift the flange at the bottom and spill milk. Once you have it on for about 5 minutes and working it seems like the flange sticks to your breast (kind of like the little silicone things that stick to the bathtub, fridge, or market boards) so once your breast move it pulls up the flange. I wouldn’t recommend the s12 for using while lifting or doing work that requires you to lean or bend.
I have watched so many reviews in my attempt to find the perfect wearable pump for when baby #4 comes 3 months from now. I have appreciated them all but yours really covered the bases of what I wanted to know SO SO well and I wanted to make sure to properly thank you for taking the time to do this! You are so kind and helpful. 🥰
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently using the spectra and need something to be hands free when traveling or needing to get things done at home. I have low supply and elastic nipples so want to make sure the pump I get is strong enough not to effect supply, will not leak, but also has a silicone flange as I think that’s what’s recommended for my issue. All that being said, which would you recommend?
Honestly the S12s are kinda nice for something like that because you can buy extra cups and then you don't have to worry about stopping to wash some in between pumps. Just use your extra set for your second pump.
please correct me if i'm wrong, shouldn't everything be sterile ? but you assemble the pumps with bare hands at which point do you steralise ? or did i miss a step. but overall i found video very informative.
I had the s12 and I thought it was trash. It makes me sad because I bought it on Amazon and I love everything about the pump but the suction was nothing. Everyone’s told me that it was probably just a bad pump but I’m scared to try it again
The S12 is pretty strong. Were you wearing a snug enough bra? It could have been a bad pump but I wonder if you try with a kind of snug sports bra it will work better.
I’m a nurse and torn between s12 and M1. Which would be best for having to move around most of the day and lifting patients? (even though I plan on taking them off before lifting a patient)
Hm the M1 is quieter and a little less noticeable but the S12 feels a little more secure to me and is stronger. Depends on what specifically you are looking for!
@@MadisonLoethen Thank you so much for your reply. I think I will get the s12 if it’s more secure since I’m not worried about anyone noticing since a mommas gotta do what a mommas gotta do.
love it! You could also get an extra set of cups for the S12 if you don't think you'll have time to wash your parts or can't do the fridge hack easily.

Bellababy leaks too much for me. I had two different machines and the silicone just does not stay where it is supposed to be. It was affordable though. definitely worth its cost...
I work at Amazon warehouse. I don’t care about the looks or noise. Between the Momcozy s12 or M1 which one leaks less when moving around a lot? Bending and climbing ladders? I know that either one is not completely leak proof, but I’m looking for which one leaks less.
Thanks for the great video. This is the only comparison with all pumps at once. I have a question 🙋♂️ why momcozy gives only 7 days of warranty? Isn’t it too less that too the product should not be opened
They are the same! Just different brands carrying the same model. Check out my video I just posted about the Momcozy S9 Pro though! I really like it and it fixed a lot of the complaints ppl had with the original.
I enjoyed your video and all of the topics you touched on, but you didn’t really comment on how much milk you actually got on each one. I have use the Willow and that took me 50 minutes to get what I would normally get in 30 minutes with the spectra. Wasn’t a fan. Do you have a comparison for this? I am interested in the S 12 but I’m trying to decide if it’s worth it.
With all of these I've found I usually get around my normal amount for that time a day if I pump a couple extra minutes than I would with a traditional pump. So my morning pump with one of these would be around 8oz but an evening pump would be more like 4 for me. I made this video a couple months ago and can confidently say the S12 is my favorite so I think it's a good choice!
Can any of these handle pumping every 2 hours consistently? My baby will be 7 weeks tomorrow & I'm building my supply & not being attached to "jumper cables" every 2 hours will be great.. currently using a Medela but I also need one that has a 27mm flange.. & a good let down mode, I have to run mine at least 3 times to get a let down & my flow is still drips, I have to massage constantly to get a "flow".. Any suggestions?
Which one has the least spillage and is the easiest to pour in a bottle?? Do you have a video because they all look like they'd spill or be hard to pour out
They all pour pretty easily out of the hole in the top. Leakage wise - I didn’t have any trouble with the original S9 or S12 leaking but I know some ppl did and they came out with the Pro version of them that have a double sealed flange that is much less likely to leak
Hiii I have the s9 and it was working really well for me for about 2 weeks but I’ve been having problems with the suctioning ever since it’s like it’s not suctioning and latching on anymore, do you know what could be the problem? I haven’t been pumping anymore and my supply has definitely gone down :(
Thank you so much for this video! Im going back to work soon and really want to continue to give my baby breastmilk i needed help deciding whats best for working in a fast paced environment at an urgent care.. Thank you so much
I’d go with the S12! It is easy to use and you could just have an extra set of cups if you don’t think you’d be able to stop and clean them during your shift.
Is there a special type of bra you need to wear to put these in, or can they be worn in a regular bra? Do any of these shift around with normal movements?
Hi love! I do an assembly of the S12/9 and M1 in the individual videos on my channel if u want to check them out! The M1 is a little tricky to clean but it does come with its own cleaning brush which helps.
I have hard tissue/lumpy breast. I have to manually massage the lumps in order to fully empty while pumping. Would any of these allow for me to still do that? Does their massage mode actually work?
amazing video, exactly the video i needed! ftm here due in nov/dec(?) and i’m not picky about sound, parts, and discreetness/aesthetic since i’m a sahm. i’m looking for one that can be used between feeding sessions without carrying my medela pisa everywhere if it’s a busy day at home, building my stash, and just all around convenient for emptying my breasts. which one would you recommend between the s12, m1, or bellababy?
I’m breastfeeding my twins, and using a medela but I need something that helps me get stuff done . I tried s12 but I was too strong and hurt my nipples and didn’t gente that much milk out, would you recommend bellababy?
So I want to get the s12 but I'm afraid of the suction. Have you used the willow 2.0? I had it 3 years ago and the suction was insane! Ripped my nipples. Left it almost new. If you've used the willow 2.0 what's the comparison on the suction?.
I haven't used the Willow but the S12 is pretty strong. I usually just use it on level 2 or 3 when on expression mode. If you're pretty sensitive I'd maybe try the M1 or Bellababy.
When comparing sounds the s9 sounded the quietest but you recommend the m1 so I’m a little torn. I’m a waitress and just need something to wear while serving tables so I’m looking for the quietest but most affordable option. This video is very helpful and I’m very thankful someone made a review for these different affordable pumps!
The S9 is great! I think the M1 is a little more discreet but the S9 motor is easily concealed if you have the right top on. With all of these you will have to be careful bending down when serving. Bending down too much could make them come out of place.
Put your parts in the fridge without cleaning so the bacteria doesn’t grow and use them again within 24 hours. Not recommended for NICU babies but it’s a great hack for busy moms of older babies!
I personally haven't had that issue with any but I know other people have. On Etsy there is a leak protector for the S9/12 cups that people really seem to like.
I got the M1 and the S12 I freaking adore the M1 but there are no replacement parts for it and washing it is a pain 🙃 just got the Bellababy it's on sale for $80 right now
Is the s9 or a 12 quieter? I’m a nurse and may not always be able to step away so need something that I can wear when next to another person that’s as least noticeable as possible sound wise! Thanks!
The S12 may be a little quieter but both can be heard when next to someone. The M1 is the quietest but is still noticeable in a quiet room. In a busy room, you could definitely get away with it. :-)
@@MadisonLoethen I still seem to be having the same issue with this code too. It says the promo code can't be applied to my purchase. I'm clicking the link in the description box to direct me to the product but still unable to use the code. I guess I'll just have to purchase without the code. Thanks for helping me anyways! 😁
Hi Your video is really helpful thanks. I do I know which size to buy, how do I measure my nippple or breast so I don't get a bigger pr smaller pump . Thank a

The best video! You got straight to the point. You are greatly appreciated ❤
It's S9 momcozy??? Ya bellababy please tell me I really want to order a pump please guide me which one is best
This one wasn’t but momcozy has a s9 pro version now and it’s great. I’d get it over this Bellababy because I think the parts are higher quality.

The s12! It’s deff the strongest
Bella baby starts leaking due to its design from sides, small drops after some keeping few ml of milk, sad 😭....
Are any of them spill/splash proof? I need something I can wear when at work(truck driving)

both would be about the same in that you have to stay somewhat upright when pumping. the only pump you can bend all the way over in is the willow 3.0
Thanks for the great video. This is the only comparison with all pumps at once. I have a question 🙋♂️ why momcozy gives only 7 days of warranty? Isn’t it too less that too the product should not be opened
Ah im not sure sry!
You’re the best! Thank you
Difference between baby bond s9 and momcozy s9? (Sorry this is my FILs TH-cam)
They are the same! Just different brands carrying the same model. Check out my video I just posted about the Momcozy S9 Pro though! I really like it and it fixed a lot of the complaints ppl had with the original.
How does the bellababy suction compare to the s12? I have the s12 and the suction is ALWAYS set to the top mode
The Bellababy has a nice suction but it’s not quite as strong as the S12
For someone who needs extra suction but on budget which one would you recommend ?
The S12 is deff the strongest!
Which would you say has the least strong suction? I bought the S12 and level 1 felt miserable the first try so I’ve been scared to use it again.
I’d say the M1 is the gentlest. The S12 Pro is less intense too.
Loved this video, so helpful 💞 Have you had any issues so far with the s9?
nope! Works well for me. :-)
Thank uou! Bought the s12 based on this video and SO happy I did. So worth it.
so glad you're loving it!
Have u had problems with leaking?
Hello. Could you please tell me if you need to choose between M1 and S12 regarding only the suction,which one is the best? Thank youuu!

which emptys the breast more, s12 or momcozy? i heard momcozy is good but doesnt empty all the way. what do you think?
It does empty me fine I just have to keep it on an extra minute or two than I would my plug in pump
If you had to choose between momcozy s12 pro and bellababy which would you pick?
I'd do the S12 pro. It's quieter and I really like the pro improvements.

sorry to hear that!
Thank you! This is a str8 to the point video. Very helpful. Keep it up girl
So glad it was helpful! ❤️
Which one out of the 4 is the best for avoiding leaks?
Probably the M1. Haven’t really heard of anyone having leaking problems with the M1
I’m breastfeeding my twins, and using a medela but I need something that helps me get stuff done . I tried s12 but I was too strong and hurt my nipples and didn’t gente that much milk out, would you recommend bellababy?
Yes! I would deff do Bellababy if you are looking for something more comfortable.
Was the s12 still strong even on the lowest setting?
So I want to get the s12 but I'm afraid of the suction. Have you used the willow 2.0? I had it 3 years ago and the suction was insane! Ripped my nipples. Left it almost new. If you've used the willow 2.0 what's the comparison on the suction?.

Does the M1 have the timer on it also? To help keep track of how long you've pumped
Yes! It has a digital screen
@@MadisonLoethenokay.. Thanks it did not mention the timer on the site as a feature only that it was a display

The S9 and S12 are the easiest to clean and put back together. The M1 and Bellababy aren’t too bad but take a little more effort.
What’s the fridge hack?
Put your parts in the fridge without cleaning so the bacteria doesn’t grow and use them again within 24 hours. Not recommended for NICU babies but it’s a great hack for busy moms of older babies!

Hi
Your video is really helpful thanks.
I do I know which size to buy, how do I measure my nippple or breast so I don't get a bigger pr smaller pump . Thank a
Question: what's the flange sizes on these pumps and are they changeable? What about how difficult are they in cleaning?
U can get different flange sizes or inserts for all! Cleaning isn’t bad. The M1 is probably the hardest but it comes with a little brush.
