If you look at the pictures on the internet, it looks like a conglomeration of avent manual pump, a medela classic pump breastshield and bottle attached to a bailey medical-style power source.  The pump rate is listed at 46  cycles/minute (considerably slower than a baby's "drinking" rate during let-down).  With more women breastfeeding, are we surprised that everyone is jumping on the bandwagon to create either an accessory or a substitute for the real thing?  It's another income opportunity, an untapped market to mine!  And it's a Korean-based website.

Hi Lisa,

Did you mean "Unimom"? I can only find one by that brand name.

All I've been able to find out about it is that it's quite new, made in South Korea, cheap compared to known quality pumps, and used a lot in the Philippines. Website is www.unimom.co.kr, company is Blue Egg Co., they're looking to expand into new markets, and the sole proprietor is Jung-hyeun (also written as John) Hong.

The only reviews I can find are scant, and are clearly sponsored.
