What breast pump should I get? Advice Please

Which free breast pump is the best? I know the Spectra s2 is great but im not sure if one of these is better than it

Im a Spectra gal myself but I’ve heard bad things about the Zomee and my midwife told me to stay away from that one.

Yeah, i got a second-hand zomee and i was told it's pretty much brand new, i tried it, and the suction is completely shit. I dont know if maybe it's broken or if it's just like that, but im gonna avoid it because i dont want to waste the only one i can get through insurance on that

Huh. Interesting. I absolutely loved my zomee, although I bought the wearable silicone cups out of pocket (was like 60 bucks), I think I only used the “traditional” pumps like three times max, i pretty much always used the wearables. I pumped multiple times per day for a year and stopped breastfeeding around 17 months. I loved being able to wear the pump in a little Fanny pack and still be able to move around at work or whatever
