Why Moms Are Choosing Pump In Style® Pro/Pro+

Motherhood is beautiful, exhausting, and emotional—and every product you rely on should make life easier, not harder. That’s why we redesigned Pump In Style® Pro: to deliver the power, comfort, and clinical performance moms need, in a pump that fits in your bag.
You know Symphony—the big yellow pump wheeled into your room after delivery? This is that kind of performance, but in a sleek, bag-ready design.

Backed by Research. Loved by Moms.

We partnered with the University of Western Australia to test Pump In Style® Pro against Symphony, the #1 breast pump used in hospitals. 

The results? 

  • Effective and fast breast emptying similar to Symphony
  • Similar comfort ratings 

That’s real hospital-grade performance—validated by science and loved by moms.

     

    Real Hospital Performance. Real Mom Comfort.

    While other brands use terms like “hospital strength,” Medela is the only one backed by clinical evidence and trusted by hospitals nationwide.

    If you’re a seasoned mom who relied on Symphony during your hospital stay, Pump In Style® Pro is your next best move to protect and maintain your milk supply. If you’re a new mom looking for comfort and confidence from day one, this is the pump for you.

    STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE

    I have been using this pump for the last month or so and I've been loving it.  My milk supply started to pick back up once I switched to the Medela Pump In Style Pro.

    isletaw_1150

    I've been using it for a few weeks now, and it's honestly been a lifesaver. I'm back at work and pumping several times a day, and this pump has kept up without any issues.  It's efficient, comfortable, and doesn't take forever to empty, which is a big deal when you're trying to squeeze sessions into a packed schedule.  The design is super portable, easy to carry between home and office, and the parts are straightforward to clean and put together.  I also really appreciate how quiet it is compared to other models I've tried.  If you're a working mom looking for something reliable and effective, I'd definitely recommend this one.

    The Medela Pump In Style Pro has been such a reliable companion during my breastfeeding journey.  It's efficient, powerful, and suprisingly quiet for a double electric pump.  I love how easy it is to assemble and clean, which makes pumping feel less like a chore.  The portability is a huge plus too--I can easily take it with me when I'm on the go.  The improved settings give me more control and comfort during sessions, and I've been able to maintain my supply without any issues.  It's truly designed with moms in mind and has made the process so much smoother for me.

    FAQs

    How does Pump In Style® Pro compare to Symphony®?

    Pump In Style® Pro is a smaller, single-user pump designed for use at home. It features our clinically proven pumping pattern from the Symphony® Maintain program, along with the same 16 vacuum levels and two modes (Stimulation and Expression). Symphony® is our hospital-grade, multi-user pump with Initiation technology, designed to stimulate your milk production right after birth. We also recommend using it if you or your baby have special medical needs.

    Why did you update Pump In Style®?

    We’ve listened to your feedback on our previous Pump In Style® model and identified key areas for improvement: 1) performance, 2) visual interface, and 3) transition from hospital to home. We’ve made improvements in all three areas:

    • Upgraded the pumping pattern (now similar to the pumping pattern of the Symphony® Maintain program)
    • Added visual LED indicators to show the level you’re pumping at
    • Aligned the settings with the Symphony® hospital pump (same 16 pumping levels and two modes: Stimulation and Expression).
    What’s the difference between the old Pump In Style® MaxFlow and the new Pump In Style® Pro?

    The new Pump In Style® Pro features our clinically proven pumping pattern, similar to Symphony®, the #1 breast pump used in hospitals worldwide:

    • Hospital-grade efficiency: The quick build of the vacuum promotes milk output.
    • Hospital-grade comfort: Optimized hold and gentle release of the nipple.
    • Enhanced* control & feedback: The level and mode indicators allow for precise control over your pumping sessions, letting you fine-tune comfort and efficiency.
    • Hospital-to-home continuity of care: The seamless transition from Symphony® in the hospital to Pump In Style® Pro at home with similar settings—same 16 pumping levels and Stimulation and Expression modes—ensures consistent care without any confusion. *vs previous Pump In Style®
    Where can I get the new Pump In Style® Pro?

    Pump In Style® Pro is exclusively available through insurance. Check if you qualify through your insurance provider, or purchase directly from our partner websites.

    What does hospital-to-home continuity of care mean?

    Pump In Style® Pro features our clinically proven pumping pattern, similar to the Symphony® Maintain program. It also has 16 similar pumping levels and two modes (Stimulation and Expression) as Symphony®, providing consistent care. The similarity in technology between Symphony® and Pump In Style® Pro enables a seamless transition from hospital to home without any confusion.

    What accessories / spare parts are available for the Pump In Style Pro?

    If you would like to pump hands-free, you can purchase Medela Hands-free collection cups separately.  Medela offers various breast shield sizes compatible with you pump kit:  PersonalFit™ Flex breast shields in sizes 21, 24 and 27 mm as well as  PersonalFit™ Plus breast shields in size 18 mm.
