I've been perusing the archives about the Whittlestone pump (excuse 
me, 'breast expresser'). I don't see anything posted since 2002. Does 
anyone have any newer information about this pump? Anyone who has decided 
to stock them, or not stock them for any particular reason? 

My take on it is that the sensation of pumping is far more gentle than 
with the other "conventional" pumps - but that perhaps output is reduced 
for some moms? I know that it's expensive, but with the new price points 
of the Medela PIS Advanced, the Playtex pump, and the new Avent electric, 
it seems that the Whittlestone is no longer so far above the others in 
price. 

Input would be extremely welcome - this is for a book for working and 
pumping moms, and I'm trying to provide very frank information about the 
differences between the brands of pumps, rather than the usual "a double 
electric pump is the best choice..." that doesn't really help moms pick a 
brand. 

Thanks so much!!
