Yup. The medela mini electric came second with 68%. Got aWhich best buy. Main dowside was noise levels, everything else scored pretty well.

Which pump came first Kira? I'm so nosey.

Oooh, while I remember, thanks to whoever posted about homebargains having the tommee tippee closer to nature microwave steriliser for £8.99. I got one yesterday. if anyone is after the electric one they also had that, I think it was £22.99, not sure how good a price that is.

Think it's about average, was £23 in Mothercare when I was in the other day I think Great price for the microwavable one though!

Did you buy any extra bottles to go with it? I haven't bought any yet, but not sure what to do, OH said just use the one that comes with and then pour that into the bottles we already have.

I've bought some extra bottles, but not medela ones- went for some Philips Avent ones, and i've bought some pump and save bags for storing/freezing as well.

May just do similar then. I wasn't really sure what to do, I thought the medela bottles were more freezer space friendly, compared to the tommee tippee ones, but probably be able to cope with what we have at the moment, rather than buying more.

Didnt want to buy too many of any one kind, in case bean doesnt get on with them. Would be typical to buy a load and then find i have to buy more of a different kind.
I'm planning on freezing in the bags as they are more space efficient, and then feeding from bottles, so not too worried about shape/size of bottles in the freezer.
