Barb, I am so glad to hear you had a good experience because I had a 
terrible one with the same company. I recognize what you wrote as what they 
told us, and the testing with vacuum gauges. It was advertised as being 
research oriented but was really a thinly disguised advertising session. 
(And this is twice now I have been to something which was billed as research 
oriented but turned out to be advertising oriented, using the company's 
products.)

They beat their competition to death at the one I went to and I was totally 
disgusted. They used old, dirty and beat up pumps from every one of the 
competition pumps (electric and manual) and brand new clean ones from their 
own company. They did show us some research but the majority of the time was 
spent trying to sell us on their products. They made up something called 
"dead air space" which supposedly made the competition a terrible pump. But 
I could not get them to really explain this concept and how they researched 
it, and I know moms love these other pumps.

I say show us your products and tell us why they work well, but leave off 
lying about your competition. If your product is superior, it will speak for 
itself. And if your presentation is really an advertisement for your 
products then please tell us in advance, don't sneak it under the table. 
SHAME! SHAME!

I have no financial interest in any product either. This is just my 
observation also.
