NUK Luna Electric Breast Pump (1 pack)

Product Information

Included in the accessories for the NUK Luna Electric Breast Pump are a screw ring, closure disc and stand as well as a power adaptor and a travel adaptor for journeys abroad. You already know that breast pumps can be manual or electric, and they can be either single or double expression (i.e., pumping one or both breasts at a time). But the distinguishing characteristics don't stop there. Breast pumps can also be closed or open system. However, the Motif Luna is smaller in comparison to the Spectra S1 when it comes to the overall size and weight. There’s a reason that 90 percent of moms prefer the Luna over their current pump, and it’s not just about the milk output–although that is a huge perk.

Electric pumps use an outlet to power a motor that helps express milk directly into a baby bottle or breastmilk container. Because electricity can provide more consistent, reliable suction than batteries, many electric pumps are able to express more milk over a shorter period of time than their battery-operated counterparts. They also usually do the job faster than you can do with a manual pump. The downside is that electric pumps need to be connected to an outlet, so you'll be tied down. Hospital-grade pumps are electric pumps but there are many other less expensive electric pumps, too. This portable double electric pump, which weighs just over one pound in total, comes with a lovely tote you won't be embarrassed to carry around. Our experts love how easy it is to use, and note that it achieves great output compared to similar models. One of our testers called it "extra-strength." The MaxFlow uses two-phase expression technology to mimic your little one's natural breast feeding patterns. Just note, says Dukas-Janakos, that though it offers 10 levels of suction, you only have the choice of two speeds. Breast pumps, including the Motif Luna, are covered by most insurance providers, thanks to a provision in the 2012 Affordable Care Act. Most insurance providers also cover replacement breast pump parts. (source: University of Rochester Medical Center )It’s a powerful and very effective pump. Many women who had used both the Luna and other pumps said that they emptied faster with the Luna. (Motif has also done research on the subject.) 2. Settings are flexible

Condensation can also build up easily. Both of these things can cause mold to grow in the tubes, which can then contaminate the milk.

As you can see from the chart below, the Luna and the S2 have many things in common. They’re also both relatively quiet, and they’re both lightweight, although the Luna is a tiny bit lighter and smaller. (sources: Motif Medical& Spectra Baby) Specific Feature If you’re new to pumping, it may come as a surprise to you that not all pumps are created equal. Some pumps are able to extract more milk than others. Generally, this has to do with the suction the pump creates. The Motif Luna breast pump is a hospital-strength pump, which in everyday language means that it has strong suction—comparable to ones used in hospital settings. While the suction is strong enough to get more milk out in less time, it’s also gentle enough not to cause any discomfort. The Motif Luna breast pump is battery-powered and rechargeable, so you’re not chained to an outlet while you’re pumping. Again, if you’re new to pumping, you might be wondering why you’d want to move around while you pump anyway. There are actually a lot of reasons. Whether you just want to get up and make yourself a cup of coffee while you pump, or you have any road trips in your future plans, a pump that’s battery-powered and thus, portable, is a game-changer. I have pumped on a number of road trips (as the passenger, of course), and have never regretted having a portable pump.
