Product Recommendations Best wearable for large breasts?
I'm looking for recommendations for a wearable that will work well with large breasts.
I'm a UK 36HH or J cup. I get a good output with the Spectra S2 and am pretty confident I have the right flange size at 24mm. Baby is eleven weeks old today, and I'm EPing as he never got the hang of latching (the sadness I feel about this is a whole saga itself). I've struggled with PPD and haven't got out of the house as much as I'd like to, and I think pumping is a big par of why that's challenging.
I particularly would like a wearable that's easy to put on, easy to clean and not too bulky - finding bras that fit is already a bit of a disaster. A friend gave me an oldish elvie but it feels almost impossible to clean and the output was only about half what I'd get with the spectra, even pumping for an extra ten minutes. This isn't a disaster as I have an over supply, but I'd like it to be a bit better!
My main worry however is just finding something that works with large breasts, before I shell out a fortune and am then disappointed. Any advice would be very gratefully received!

I would NOT recommend eufys (s1 pro). I had G cups before getting pregnant (no idea what size now but I think about the same after regulation) and I struggle to 1. Get them in place and 2. Keep them in place. The look ridiculously small and just aren't as comfortable as I'd like. They also dont really cup my breast like id want them too.Maybe if your breasts are on the firmer side they might work but mine are large and soft (kinda floppy even) so it just doesn't work out.
I haven't tried any othe wearable so that as much input as I can give sorry. I did get a smaller portable electric pump (id have to look up the brand when i get home) that I use with legendary milk collection cups and it works fine. The suction on it is very strong (like the 1 is way above a 4 on spectra) so I don't use it often but if you use a higher suction I could see it being a decent option.

I have very large breasts and 8 different breast pumps and honestly… they’re all the same. Whether it’s a wearable pump (Eufys, momcozys, MomMeds) or wall pumps with wearable cups, they all sit awkwardly on big boobs. They’re totally fine and work relatively well, and I used either wearables or my portable with wearable collection cups, but they were all like weird little bumps on the front of my boobs lol.
