I got a kit from "XXXXXX" and it was $15 for 10 rings and caps and 2 adapters. I have not found any adapters sold separately, but I got extras when I bought a starter kit for the bottles, too. Now I have like five adapters. So if you can't find the kit I bought (which I am having trouble finding now), maybe if you need bottles anyway, the breast milk kit and the starter bottle kit could be bought together?

Two trays come with this order. When I was working, I pumped 3 times each day, and I never exceeded the space in the two trays. I usually pumped between 8-10 ounces each day. I would get 1order. I think it will be enough. You can always buy more!

Using only one pump a day, mine last two months. According to the Twist25 website, we are supposed to get 125 full pumps from one bottle. This is clearly an exaggeration as I got only half that amount! I would not purchase again. You can get this amount cheaper elsewhere on Amazon or from a compounding pharmacy.

The primary pump and the secondary pump are both sold individually so you can replace them individually. In my case, they even included instructions from each individual pump even though I bought it as a set. Buying them as a set is much the same as buying them individually except that they are assembled together for you and already come with the check-valves and some of the piping in place.

The third adapter is a 1/2" Male Flare to or "x" 3/8" Female Pipe ( #/8" O ) { Like a hex nut } I hope this helps...Johnny

Only need to purchase one set (I cant remember if it came with 2 or 4 - I have 4) But they definitely came in sets. I also used with my freestyle pump. Words of wisdom, watch the holes when pouring milk out of the bags - I spilled the first bag :(

No, you need the adaptors. But it also comes with adaptors to use different nipples with the bottles, which we found helpful because the nipple holes broke open wider after a while. We loved this system until the nipples started breaking. Now I just pump into Avent bottles using those pump adaptors. But I will say that the kiinde customer service is wonderful.

Not sure i understand the question, but this item here comes with 2 sets of adapters (4 pieces total). You only need this if you are thinking about pumping directly into a breastmilk storage bag. More specifically, you will need the Honeysuckle pumping bag that has two holes on the top so you can 'hang' the bag onto this adapter. And yes this adapter works with Medela pump.

Honestly you should have enough with one kit. I bought two kits and only used one. Just try to judge how much you are using as you go and make adjustments. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I have been purchasing the product for years. I did have one bottle with a bad pump. I have found on some bottles it does seem like you have to make several pumps to get it to work.

Only one device was sold on Amazon, but you can purchase a pair from the Milkies website. I've considered purchasing a second device since it does such a good job of collecting. However, I really only see using one at a time (while nursing on the other breast). If the milk saver was less bulky and were a closed unit to prevent spilling, then I would definitely order a second to wear while going about my day. But they are rather large and cannot be concealed under clothing. And I've forgotten twice and bent over, spilling all my collected milk. Therefore, it really should only be worn while actively nursing and should be removed when you remove the baby.

The pump itself is the same, Medela confirms that if you call them. I personally don't care about the style of the bag, but about the practicality. I can't fit everything I need into this bag so I use another bag to carry accessories. Also if you need to pump more than twice at work, the cooler compartment only allows for 4 bottles. (PIS also has a detachable cooler bag that only carries 4 bottles. ) If you work an 8 hour day, you most likely will pump at least 3 times (6 bottles) and will need an extra cooler bag with either one.

Did you meant to ask, "do you have to attach it to the POUCH or can you pump into a bottle and pour milk into pouch?" if so, the answer is no - once you buy this adapter you can still pump into bottles. However you would just use the pump WITHOUT these adaptors. Or I think you can probably find bottles that these adaptors screw directly on to but this would be pointless - it's just an extra item to clean. So you can either buy this adaptor in order to pump into bags or just connect bottles directly to the pump. Please let me know if this answers your question.

The company will send you another one but it took nearly a week for me to get my replacement. Then they wanted me to pay shipping and return my defective one (I did not return it). All together I had to buy THREE of these pumps and I have ONE that works...most of the time. If I were you I'd talk to your Dr. or the hospital where you had your baby and see if you can rent one. That way you know you're getting a good one and it shouldn't cost much. If I had it to do over, I'd either spring for the good/expensive pump or simply rent one from the hospital. This one is terrible, I'm extremely disappointed in the First Years product, customer service and company as a whole! Good luck to you!!!

Manual pump does not pull out much milk with each pump. Manual has short and weak suction and cannot compete with the amount of milk the electric can extract in the same amount of time. For me it was a complete waste of $. They should at least sell a set of 2 manual pumps so that you could pump from both breasts instead of 1 at a time. I'd have to sit and pump for at least 35 minutes (minimum - when it's not even full) to empty 1 breast. Seemed like a waste of time to me. It was faster to hand express into a bottle if I was out somewhere and had to get some relief.

The pump always operates both, however you don't have to use both. My wife will often nurse one and then later pump the other, only attaching one bottle. So you can use it as a single or double pump.
