I absolutely love finally being able to quantify and compare different equipment. I'm one of those people who, if something can be measured (in a meaningful and relevant way) I am thrilled and love seeing, interpreting, and comparing that data. I was already a bit of a nerd about pump comparisons just based on observable things and all the work that y'all have done with new equipment and deep dives and everything makes me ridiculously happy.
If I have to decide between the motif duo hands free, motif Luna double and the Medela pump on style with max flow which one would you recommend more??? This are the options my insurance gives me. Thanks in advance.
Does the grey version have adjustable cycle speeds like the orange? When you are in expression mode on the orange version you can press and hold the plus or minus button for two seconds then release and you have three cycle speed options. I never see these tested in videos, I feel everyone assumes it doesn’t do it because it’s a small motor pump.
Hmmm I still have my old Luna and old duo. Suppose I won't replace them. Rn I'm trying to decide between the motif aura and elvie stride. Hard choice, especially now seeing motif seems to have changed great products into... Lesser products?
I got the Motif Luna three years ago with my last baby and I love it. I’ve used it several times recently since I had my second and it still works perfectly. I got this Duo this time and it is terrible. I’ve used it three times now and I cannot get ANYTHING out. On my right breast it does nothing. I had expression mode turned all the way up and my nipple barely even moved. I changed everything out and every time I had this issue. I had everything set up on the Luna and it worked perfectly, so I kept everything exactly the same and just unhooked those tubes and placed it back on Duo, and there was nothing. I’m really disappointed because I was really looking forward to having a portable pump.
I have a very giant issue with motif. It should be considered false advertising to advertise a pump as the same pump when it's not. The stunt they pulled with their pumps in 2022 was just morally wrong. They didn't inform anyone I am still telling probably over 50 people a week that if they responded to the motif with their first before 2022 they won't respond to it anymore. They did EVERYONE dirty with their zero warning pump change.
I wish the motif duo and luna worked for me. They don't they were just a huge waste of money for me. The duo didn't have a strong enough suction for me in stimulation mode to trigger a letdown for me. The only way i was able to use it was in expression mode while nursing on the opposite side to catch letdown and i had to crank it up to 10 on expression mode. The lunas letdown cycle speed of 60 didn't do much for me either. I was lucky if i could get one or 2 letdowns in 30 minutes. For a maximum of 2 ounces collected in a half hour. Once i went back to the spectra s1 i would get 7.5-8 ounces in a 30 minute time frame. With let down after letdown.
I would love to see a deep dive into cycle speeds and how they affect performance and efficiency!
We will put it on the schedule! That’s a great topic to dive into deeper 👍🏼
Awesome!!! Loving all the new content ❤️❤️

@@ME-jv7hn I'm glad I'm not the only breast pump nerd in the world.

Do either of these have micro vibrations

What portable get over 70mmhg?
All of them. 70mmhg is often where most pumps start at their low suction.

For sure. It’s been super disappointing from them recently!
why did the company make both Luna and Duo so much worse?? baffling
No idea what is happening over there!!!
The Grey pump didn't work for me I called my insurance for replacement
Did they replace it. Mines is not working for me also

Okay but can we talk about those curtains?
