I've heard  good things about the Playtex Embrace breastpump - but was 
surprised to see it  billed as a hospital-grade pump. Is it genuinely that powerful? 
Feedback  appreciated, as I know I'll get inquiries about it.

The reviews on the Target.com website says 3 overall, and that one "gets  
what one pays for."
I wonder who is billing it as a hospital-grade pump? What company could  
really afford to sell a hospital-grade pump for 99 dollars? Maybe whoever is  
making this mistake also bills the Medela PNS as a hospital-grade pump. Double,  
and electric does not a hospital grade pump make...It is interesting, that one  
many websites the PNS is billed as hospital-grade, while the Ameda Purely 
Yours  is listed as "based on hospital-grade technology."

This site lists the Avent ISIS IQ as hospital-grade too. What I consider  
hospital-grade runs close to 1,000 dollars, and is designed to work well being  
used 8 or more times per day...
