I have one and have used it on one mom so far.  I am going to do a
comparison trial between it and the PNS Advanced and it and the Lactina
(with variable speed and suction). Will let you know what I find out.
It DOES take care of the issue of milk backing up into the pump because
the pumping mechanism is attached to the flanges right at the breast.

I'm cynical enough to not rely on a company's own advertising for
information about a product. Nothing that I can find on the website
addresses any comparison between this product and their other products,
and I could find no detail about the pump mechanism.

I was hoping one of the wonderful, unbiased LCs here might have had some
real-world experience with the product. It is quite new, though, so I'll
understand if no-one has yet.

Thanks,

Lara Hopkins
