I've had 3 moms try this pump so far, and the reviews have been mixed.  
Everyone thought it was noisy, one was self-conscious using it. She 
thought it was very comfortable, and is very upset that she's already 
purchased a Pump in Style Advance, though it takes a little longer to 
get as much milk with the Playtex Embrace. Another found it comfortable 
but noisy. The third said it was more comfortable on her nipples, but 
more painful on her areolas than the Symphony with 30mm flanges is, and 
found it slower as well (expressed less milk per unit time). She was 
willing to take it home for the week, though.

Looks similar to the first iteration of the Whittlestone so far. Comfy, 
but significantly slower than the Ameda and Medela personal grade double 
pumps. That might not be a problem for the casual user, but could be 
hard on employed moms with short breaks, in my opinion.
Has anyone tried the new Whittlestone Unipulse yet?
