Kerry, I think you'll find that Lansinoh is owned by pigeon.  Pigeon is a notorious Code-violator.  They want your 'feedback' so they can place the endorsement of a qualified LC on their promotional website or packaging or in their targeted relationship marketing strategies (email facebook etc). 
Please don't allow yourself to be used as a free sales rep.  (Sales reps earn much more than you do, I assure you!) Return the package to the sender, with a note letting them know that you will not allow your professional reputation to be exploited in this way.  If you can't return the package whence it came, I would suggest destroying the contents and sending a note, either via email or snail mail to the marketing manager of the company, letting them know what you think of their underhanded marketing strategy.

> Okay lactation buddies....what do you say about this!!??  Our hospital is in the second phase step of Baby Friendly, so I cannot endorse a product by handing things out.  The pump would be nice to give to someone in need that cannot afford one, no insurance, ect, or maybe a WIC patient who does not qualify for a WIC pump.  Those of you that also received this 'gift', tell me what you are going to do with it!!!  Many thanks...Kerry
