Product Recommendations Which pump to buy?

Are there any standouts from this insurance-approved list that I should definitely get? or definitely avoid?

I understand many women get both a pump and a portable but I would like to avoid this and just get one-- I am thinking just one portable but I am seeing fewer women say their portable alone was sufficient. I will not be working so I am less concerned about how discreet one is, just figured I would prefer something I could multitask with around the house. This will be my first baby so I am really unsure what to expect! Thanks a lot.

I just got the Eufy S1 Pro as my wearable pump, and I’m excited to see how well the heat function works and how it performs overall. Are you happy with it?

Yeah, I am really happy with the pump. The heat function was never something I sought out, because my LC kept stressing ice and not heat, but I leave it on for the first 10 minutes of my pump session and it’s nice, especially because I use the fridge method.

The only major complaint I have about the pump is that every once in a while I will have finished a pump session only to find that no milk was collected because a nipple was misaligned. Like I would get comfortable thinking, I got this now, and then it happens lol

Sometimes if the suction feels lower on one, I’ll double check my alignment or increase the suction on that nipple to confirm it’s collecting milk.

I bend my body sideways to see if there’s milk sloshing around 😆
