Will this connect to Medela? How does it compare to the Medela soft fit flanges??

I have only used a lanisoh electronic pump. I do not believe that these will fit the Medela brand as the company itself would probably lose money if any other brand of flanges could be used.

Yes, I use Medela bottles all the time (Mendela pump at work and Ameda at home).. they definitely are compatible

I used it for Ameda but I know Ameda bottles and Medela bottle are similar. I ended up converting to Medela and didn't use the adapter though. So it probably does fit. Hope that helps!

I have playtex vente air and they will attach right to my medela parts. This is for the avent bottles that have a wider head.

They fit directly into the valve of the Medela pump, not into the flange. You take the Medela flange out & use these instead. I highly recommend them. My son is a preemie with a small mouth. He was not able to latch very well. Due to that, I became very raw & nursing was painful. I was already pumping with the pumping pal shields. I took a couple of days from nursing & strictly pimped with these flanges. It helped me heal up so I could return to nursing my son. I still use these flanges every day. They are very helpful.

Basically the tubing connector supports the same inside diameter as Medela, Ameda, and probably others. Therefore you can use Medela collection kit with Pumpin Pals flange if you wanted. This is how my wife uses it. Or you could use Ameda collection equipment (and probably others). Great machine by the way. The pump action seems a little strange at first as it sort of flutters but she got used to it and actually prefers this model over the fancy $2,000 Ameda Platinum we rented.

I didn't have that particular brand of pumping bra but I used it with my homemade pumping bra( I just use a sports bra with holes cut in it) and it works. It is a little trickier to get the flange through the hole because it is attached to the valve piece, unlike the medela flanges that detach from the valve portion, but I was able to do it with a little bit of wiggling. If the hole on the bra is very small with no give it might be difficult, you might have to cut the holes larger or get a different hands free solution.

i wish I could tell you for sure! I used mine with the Medela, so I'm assuming you can? If the Spectra flanges hook up the same way the Medela parts do, then I would say yes!

No. It's vica versa. The top part connects to the medela pump & the bottom part connects to advent bottles.

Yes, they are compatible. From what I have observed, all of Medela's bottles seem to use the same threading and work interchangably with their other products. Personally I like the cooler and found it to be decently priced.

It should, the way the holes in front are created they fit many sizes of flanges. I've used 2 different systems with zero problem.

No it does not fit with flanges from other makes. The flange is one piece so is not interchangeable, the only thing changeable on this pump is the cushion which comes in 2 sizes, but doesn't help if the flange itself doesn't fit properly.

The flange is interchangeable it is the bolt patter that matter. Bolt pattern is the same on the model number. The difference is the pump mount

I used the pumpin' pal (large sized) flange, and I had a lot of spillage when I inserted it from the outside because the flange would require the hole to stretch pretty large. The suction was also extremely poor with my Medela Pump in Style Advance. When I put the flange *through* the bra rather than insert it into the opening from the outside - which solved both problems.

Yes. Most Medela products will connect. I used mine with my Medela electric pump and my Medela hand pump. Both worked great!

Lynda, I took a look at the pictures of both online and they look like they would match. The motor itself isn't the key to matching, the flange is. Before I purchased the new motor I'd check with the supplier and see if you can get the dimensions of the flange. I'd pay particular attention to the distance between the bolt holes. Mark N.

These fit into a standard Medela valve, and to clear things up, I uploaded a video to show how it works: http://www.amazon.com/review/R31YEAB1J6JAA7
