"4.0 out of 5 stars" - I am a new mom with a 5 week old and this product is one tiny win for all the dozens of difficulties learning to breastfeed an infant. I used to just keep nursing pads in my bra to catch let down on the other side while nursing, but now that I see I am collecting anywhere from 20-30mL a feeding, I wish I had known about this sooner. Now I can freeze the milk instead of throwing it away it a soaked nursing pad.The biggest plus is that due to the small amount of suction, I am able to nurse bra-less and just attach it to the other side while my baby nurses. It was so frustrating to me to feel like I could never just give my chest and rib cage a break and go bra-less while feeding because I let down so much milk on the side that is not being actively nursed. Unlike the big haakaa manual pump that I tried (and massively failed) using for catching let down, there is no chance this will get kicked off. The silicone is comfortable and soft around the edges. The small amount of suction is comfortable and enough to keep the ladybug in place without actively pumping any milk, thus no risk for becoming an over-producer. You can either use suction to keep in place or place it in your bra. I purchased the Elvie let down collectors to test out at the same time and, while the hard rounded shell makes it a product that could be worn much more discreetly under your bra to collect milk throughout the day, my goal was to find something for collecting milk during feed times and for something that allowed me to be bra-less while feeding. The Elvie collectors have no suction which is why I ultimately chose the HaakaaThat brings me to the cons of this product:1. Not discreet whatsoever. I could never wear this under my bra in public. I purchased the smaller size and it’s pretty big and bulky. Go with the Elvie ones if your goal is wearing them in public2. No measurement markings. Since I freeze the milk I collect, it would be nice if there was markings on the side that let me know how much I had collected
"3.0 out of 5 stars" - Good for a passive catch, good capacity, but really weak suction. If you want something that helps you get a little more milk with stronger suction, I like my Elvie Curve but it has slightly less capacity than this item
