Frequently Asked Questions
Is it quiet enough for night pumping or the office?
Yes. The motor is designed for low-noise use. For extra discretion, place the pump on a soft surface to reduce vibration.
How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?
A full charge provides up to ±1.5 hours of pumping and takes about 2 hours to recharge. Recharge via USB adaptor, laptop, power bank, or car charger.
Will it hurt to use?
No. The silicone cushion is designed for comfort. Centre your nipple in the funnel and start at a gentle level. Lactation specialists often suggest placing a few drops of breast milk in the funnel before pumping to help improve comfort and seal.
How often should I sterilise the parts?
Wash after every use and sterilise at least once a day, especially for newborns or high-risk infants. For older, healthy babies, thorough washing and daily sterilisation are generally sufficient.

Won’t air-drying parts leave them contaminated?
No. Air-drying completely on a clean rack or paper towel and storing in a clean container keeps the risk of contamination low. Cloth towels can introduce germs, so air-dry is safer.
Why are spare parts included?
Because cleaning and drying take time, spare parts let you continue pumping with a fresh set while another set is being cleaned or drying — a best practice recommended in pump care guides.
What if suction feels too weak or too strong?
Use the adjustable settings to find your comfort zone. If suction feels uncomfortable, re-centre your nipple and try a gentler level.
Do I need a double pump?
A single pump is perfect for daily expressing and portability. Choose a double electric if you want to express from both breasts at once to save time.
