I love the pump Ameda makes great pumps, but I knew I’d hate that flange kit always have even with my first child so I just ordered collection cups for the Mya Joy.
This is very interesting and may explain why when I used the old kits with Ameda I did not respond because it felt like there was no suction even when cranked all the way up.
Weirdly I was having issues with the name brand parts that came with the pump. I had to switch out the parts during a session to narrow it down and it was the duckbills. I had no idea that offbrand parts could cause problems, I'm pumping 50oz a day with the only name brand part being the tubes and caps. I'm tiny and their custom fits don't get small enough so I had to get smaller flanges too
I just received my Ameda Mya Joy from my insurance, and I was very bummed when I saw all your other reviews. Is the universal kit somthing that has to be bought separately, or does it come with the pump as its original parts? Can it be used with different collection cups like wearable cups? I picked this pumpkin because I used this brand with ym first 2 kids many yrs ago, and I really loved the output I got from it. So this time around, I trusted the brand but didn't do much research on it like I normally do. I was getting so nervous because I thought this was a stationary pump ans not a portable pump which I didn't need since I already have BabyBuddah as my portable. Now I'm trying to see if I'll need to purchase another one out of pocket as my stationary pump.

Do you have an update? On whether you would recommend it or not?

I used the mya joy with the hospital hygiene kit. I had next to no suction
