I saw a set "Medela Freestyle Breast Pump Replacement Parts Kit with Medium 24 mm Breast Shield " amounted $54.94.What is the difference between them? Only a tubing is missing? Thx.

You don't need additional tubing as the tubing does not come in contact with the milk. This kit is perfect for an extra set while pumping during the work day.

you'll need to wash everything but the tubing. its super easy and the comparative model, the Medela pump, requires you to wash tubing- which is difficult and takes a lot of time. I really liked this pump and the cost savings was great.

Tara, larger flanges, size 30, are are available for $10 each. I don't use pumping pals though so I can't answer that question.

No it does not. It has a backflow filter that creates a barrier between the tubing and flanges. Since it is a closed system, you don't have to replace your tubing.. Unless you misplace them. But milk does get into the filter, so make sure you clean them. The filters are easily opened and closed, perfect for an easy cleaning. I recommend using babyganics foaming dish and bottle soap to clean the pump flanges, valves, bottles, and filters. It gets the residue off and rinses clean. I also use a skinny nipple cleaner (I buy the cheap babies r us brand skinny nipple cleaners) to get any gunk out of the part that connects the filter and breast pump (if you purchase it you'll see what I'm talking about). I also recommend boiling your parts or using a steam sterilizer bag to kill off any bacteria every other day or weekly. Also, if you ever lose your valves or rip them, and need to replace them ASAP the Medela valves and membranes are compatible with the spectra S1, S2, M1, and 9 breast pump flanges. If you decide to purchase this breastpump, first check with your insurance if you are eligible to receive a free breastpump covered by your insurance. Call and ask to see if your insurance company's DME supplier for breast pumps is Edgepark medical. Edgepark carries the S2 model and the 9+ model. I'm sorry if this is lengthy, just wanting to make this as clear as possible to understand.

If you mean the tubing that connects the shield to the pump, yes you have to buy that as well. You may buy it from Medela's website if you do not find it on Amazon. Be sure to check the model numbers and year it was made carefully as that is a big factor in picking the right tubing (learned that the hard way)

You can actually use all medela parts with the hygia pump (except the tubing). I did.

Sorry I originally purchased the Medella pump with the bottles. I've only used these bottles for feeding purposes only.

I had to buy a smaller size too, they fit great with the pump. I got them from the same brand, I don't know about fitting shields from other brands. My pump got a hole in the rubber part that stretches to pump air. I got another entire pump, and the same thing happened. Finally I got a Medela electric, and it also came with the standard 24mm shields. I used my 21 ones without a problem.

I had mine 3 months before it stopped sucking. It wasn't as high of quality as the Medela pump, but I thought that I'd just deal with it since insurance paid for it. Well, it really messed my supply up, so I got a Medela anyways. HUGE difference. I went from barely getting 2oz out to getting 4-5oz a pumping.

it is a genuine medela but they came in sealed repack. its just plain and no design. it is not like the feeding bottles with design. it is just really for storing but at the same time it is ready to use just put nipple on.

Personally, I used the breastshields that came with the pump as a guide; if they fit snug, buy a size or 2 up. Here is an illustration from the Medela website: http://www.medelabreastfeedingus.com/assets/file/Choosing%20the%20right%20size%20breastshield%281%29.jpg

24mm (medium)... I do enjoy the convenience of this product since its one piece, but I would HIGHLY suggest you check out pumpin pal shields. They're extremely comfortable. I use those at work and these as backup at home

If I remember correctly- you need to order them separate. I remeber shopping around on Amazon, until I found a vendor that had the vlalve and pumps in stock and had them shipped together. You can also order them from intex directly as well..I think they are called pump upgrade kits.

I believe they came with the medium flow. Our son uses fast flows, and I recall having to buy them for all the bottles after purchasing this set. You can get another set of nipples for around $5 I think.

What is shown in pic - but to be more descriptive:Mine came with two flanges, four bottles with lids, a black bag that holds four bottles, an ice pack for the bottle holding bag, tubing and plastic pieces that attach to the flanges (parts necessary to make pump work), and the tote that the pump comes in. There may have also been some coupons from medela. The box is from medela and should have tape on it to indicate it wasn't opened prior to your receipt.

The Medela pump is about 100 times better! In every way, seriously. I hated my Ameda pump.
