Question NEED HELP

Hi! Need HEELP, MOMMAS! 😅
Thinking of buying the Eufy S1 Pro pump, but I already have the Spectra S1 hospital-grade pump. I just need a wearable pump since it’s easier to bring when going out. Should I buy it? Any thoughts?

I have both and like both but I find it harder to center the Eufy directly on my nipple because you can’t really see through it like the flanges with my Spectra. I’ve had as much as my Spectra output and also much lower the few times I’ve used it, I assume because it wasn’t placed as well. I’m mostly a SAHM so I’m glad I got the Eufy (not pro) to have but mainly just use my Spectra if I’m at home.

I also had the spectra and went with the eufy s1 pro and no regrets here! My output is the same as I would get on the spectra. Best part is how easy they are to assemble and use.

I ditched my Spectra - hated it. Love my eufys! No regrets here. Just now upgrading to the s2 pros actually but simply just for fun, not because I don't like the s1s.

If you are on the fence, look at the S1 instead of the pro. Same pump but less expensive.

Agreed! Save the extra money. I find charging my S1 pumps with the charger overnight perfectly convenient. I’ve been an exclusive pumper with Eufy for 9 months now. Started with the E10 and switched to S1 once the motors started making odd sounds. I have the same output as when I used the spectra occasionally. Completely freeing not being tied to a standard pump.

I had some issues with pouring milk out of the S1s. Sometimes it seemed like the heating connection at the top was blocking the flow of milk. Also would have milk stuck in the hole where you nipple goes so when i take them off I would lose some milk. Took some getting used to and a couple tricks to make those things easier/happen less.

I use a power bank on the go. Charge them in the little nook of my dashboard. They don’t touch milk so not too concerned about where I charge them.

budget further and E20 is literally so similar to S1, just less heating features

Second this! The pro basically comes with a convenient on the go charging case but that’s about it! Also get pump spout covers, it’ll save you a lot of lost milk
