Baby Products Reviews of Medela Pump & Save Breastmilk Bags - 50 pack
Customer Review: Great bags, better then Medela bags with tape
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like these bags more then the Medela bags with tape. They are just more convinient to use. Plus since there is no tape that goes over the breastshield, I'm able to see if milk is still being pumped, or if I can stop. I also don't mind washing the extra connector that these bags need. They are simple wide tubes, that are easy to wash and can be washed with the breastshields together. The only improvement that they should make is to reinforce the handle holes. Out of 50 bags I used, 2 ripped at the handles while putting them on. Otherwise, a great product and a definite improvement over the older version with the tape.Customer Review: Hated these bags!
Summary: 1 Stars
These bags were a waste of money! I HATED them. I only bought them because they say you can pump directly into them. Well, it's not that easy to do that. I tried it once and didn't like it. I prefer to just pump into a bottle and then pour it into the bags. It's so much easier. And for just plain milk storage the bags didn't seal well so they leaked. Also, I like to store my milk flat so they defrost faster. These bags don't lay flat. I have switched to Dr. Brown's bags. They are much better. I've never had any issues with leaking.
Other Medela products are great but this one missed the mark BIG TIME!
Customer Review: These are OK; Bags are NOT the same ones as pictured
Summary: 2 Stars
These bags get the job done I guess, but I don't care for them. What really irritates me is that the picture shows the old bags with the stick on strap (which I prefer MUCH more). The older bags were much easier to use. These new ones are hard to pour out of because of the hole (it seems like I'm always spilling milk) and I don't like having two more things to clean. Also, both the new and old bags are 5 oz bags, but for some reason it seems like I can barely fit 5 oz in the news ones. The old ones seemed to have slightly more space. I don't know why Medela would redesign these and make them worse.Customer Review: Better than most...
Summary: 4 Stars
I have found these bags to be extremely accurate... not sure how the previous poster was measuring, but I put this bag on my liquid food scale and filled it to the 4 oz. mark and it was right on; it weighed 4 oz. on the nose. I agree that the area to write on is small and difficult to write on with anything except a Sharpie or other permanent marker (ball point or roller ball pen don't work well) and I've had the strap holding the bag to the shield break a few times, which was inconvenient. I will continue to use these bags and recommend them to others but I will advise about those two items.Customer Review: Easy to use! Less cleaning!
Summary: 5 Stars
I like these bags and I'm lugging around bottles to and from work. One of the biggest complaints I've read about these is the pouring out the milk into a bottle. They are not using the bag right. They try to pour from the sides of the bag instead of using one of the hanging holes to pour out of (as indicated by the arrow). If I pump into a bottle the pour into a bag these bags fit snuggly over the top of the Medela bottles for easy transfers. I use the feet that hold are meant to hold the bottle securely after you pump to also hold the bags securely upright while disconnecting parts.
