Medela PersonalFit Flex Double Pumping Kit FAQ’s
Is the Medela pump included in this kit?
This kit does not include the pump. Instead, it serves as an accessory to convert your existing Medela Hands-free pump into a Classic pump.
Can I buy just the parts individually if I need to?
Yes, you can purchase individual parts separately if needed. Medela offers a range of accessories and replacement parts, including:
Why size S and M Flex shields included in the Medela PersonalFit Double Pumping Kit, instead of size M and L?
There are two reasons for choosing size S and M instead of size M and L of the Flex shield:
- According to Medela’s internal nipple database, size S and M together cover about 95% of women, while size M & L cover about 25%. Size S and M cover a much higher percentage of women.
- When fitting the breast shield size, it becomes easier to determine if the shield is too small, and you can notice it immediately. On the contrary, it is hard to notice that the shield is too big when there is an issue with fitting.
Will there be another kit coming out with differing breast shield sizes?
As of now, there are no plans to release another kit with additional breast shield sizes. However, PersonalFit Flex™ breast shields are available in various sizes (S, M, L, XL), and you can purchase them separately on our online shop to customize your pumping experience according to your needs and preferences.
How does the PersonalFit Flex™ double pumping kit personalise my pumping experience?
The kit allows you to personalize your pumping experience by giving you control over the breast shield position and fit. This is especially useful for hands-on pumping and ensuring maximum comfort and milk flow.
Can the tubing be cleaned or sanitized?
Under no circumstances should you clean or rinse the tubing. Please refrain from attempting to clean it.
How do I select the correct breast shield size?
To select the correct breast shield size, measure the diameter of your nipple and choose a breast shield that is slightly larger than your nipple. You can find sizing information at www.medela.com/fittingguide
Can I recycle the components of the pumping set?
Yes, you can dispose of the components of the pumping set in your waste management recycling container at home.
