  • Great

    I found a breast pump a vital tool in the early days of breastfeeding. My pump of choice was the Medela Swing Flex. It was fairly comfortable, really easy to use and expressed a decent amount of milk each time. I especially liked the USB charging capability so it was truly portable. Can be used with the entire range of Medela bottles which was great.

  • Great product

    This was a life saver when I had my oldest as he couldn’t take to the boob but I really wanted him to still have breastmilk. I was given one of these to help and was able to give him breast milk longer then I expected. I am so excited that it actually worked. Was super handy with my youngest also
    Its easy to clean which also comes in handy.

  • Take this wherever you need to pump!

    This cute, compact unit can be recharged at the wall, so you can pump anywhere, at home, at work or in the car. I love that it is super easy to wash. You can get a great seal from the pump, as it has a rubber edge that flexes with your breast making it a very efficient pump. I get 120mL in just eight minutes on both sides. I’ve used this pump to relieve pressure when my breast milk first came in and continue to use it to keep up my breast milk supply. I would definitely recommend this pump to any mum.

  • Absolutely love my medela breast pump!

    I was gifted the medela freestyle flex double breast pump and it is the best breast pump I have ever used! It is light weight, compact, efficient (I get almost double the amount of milk!), and most of all it is quiet meaning I can use it when I am at university! Thank you Medela 🙂

  • Absolutely love this modern efficient breastpump

    This is the best breast pump I’ve ever used! I honestly can’t rave about it enough. Medela’s new shields are SO much comfier than any others, the battery lasts for ages, it looks nice, and it’s actually quiet. I have pumped in public places and no one has batted an eyelid – that’s quiet! It’s also super efficient and I always get more than with previous pumps. I’m so happy!

  • Super comfy and pump anywhere

    Unbelievably comfy in comparison to other brand breast pump
    shields. The battery option makes it so convenient to pump on the go, the unit is small and easy to use, and even better, it’s easy to clean (which is a big deal in the newborn haze!). I like the massage setting for bringing milk down, especially if you’re trying to establish supply!

  • Easy & efficient

    It’s been a few weeks now of use and little Miss is sleeping through the night earlier than expected. So it’s been really handy to pump and get that Freezer stash going. Also noticed how quiet it is during the night which is great.

    My milk stash has grown like crazy. Thanks to my Medela Freestyle Flex I know have a substantial amount in the freezer for bub. Highly recommend this to anyone needing a compact, portable & powerful pump.

  • Fantastic modern breast pump

    I’ve always heard great things about Medela breast pumps and this one certainly doesn’t disappoint. The pump is very efficient and I’m able to pump a good amount of milk in a short time. I love the new technology of the pump and the fact it’s portable so I can pump anywhere and easily fit it in my handbag or nappy bag. All I have to do is charge the pump with the USB charger and the battery lasts a good amount of time. You can even sync the pump with the Medela app and record your pumping progress. There isn’t much this pump can’t do. I would happily recommend it to any mums.

  • Great for the time poor

    Wow, i seriously can’t believe how much stuff that comes in the box! As a mum of 3 (under 3yrs old) its pretty obvious that this box of goodies was designed and put together by other mums, it has so many great items that would be regularly used.

    The actual unit, i really love the touch screen and that it shows how much battery is left. I love that there really arent too many parts needed to assemble and use the pump. Great that it comes with the different size shields so you can easily find the right fit.

    I have a really old Medela Swing Maxi thats nearing the end of its life, this was quickly confirmed when i used the freestyle flex and saw how much more milk it was able to collect.

  • Best breast pump I’ve ever used!

    This breast pump is the best! It is quiet, compact, easy to use and clean, the battery lasts ages, the shields are so much better, and it’s cute (for a breast pump!). I get way more milk than I have from other pumps. I also bought the medela bra which is so comfy and means I can work at the same time. I would highly recommend this pump if you’re in the market for one. Love it!

  • Super powerful and so compact

    I have been a long term medela user and out of all the units I have used the Freestyle Flex is by far the best! I love the fact it can link to the MyMedela app and help keep track of your daily feeds and expressed milk. I’m very happy with this product and definitely give it 5 stars.

There was a time when tech was a luxury for kids, but these days, it’s just another booklist essential! From laptops and tablets for school to mobile phones for staying in touch, tech is now just a part of growing up. And the cost can quickly add up, especially when you’ve got more than one child needing a device.

So we’re keen to share our secret to seriously stretching your tech budget without skimping on quality. It’s called eBay Refurbished tech, and it’s the genius way to tick off the kids’ tech needs without paying a premium.

What is Refurbished tech?

eBay Refurbished tech is pre-loved tech like laptops, tablets, headphones, monitors, smart watches and mobile phones that have been professionally checked, cleaned, and tested to make sure they work just like they should. I’m talking about big brands, like Apple*, Samsung*, Lenovo*, HP*, at a much more family-friendly price than purchasing brand new.



It’s all backed by eBay’s trust perks like free shipping**, 1-year warranty**, 30-day returns**, and their Money Back Guarantee**.

Perfect for school, without the premium

Got a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) list from school that made your eyes water? Yep, same. A Refurbished laptop or Refurbished tablet from eBay can tick all the boxes without breaking the budget.
It’s a practical way to get what the school recommends – without having to dip into the emergency fund.

The range includes:

  • Refurbished laptops
  • Refurbished tablets and e-readers
    And when your kid leaves their headphones in the school library again (because of course they did), you can grab a great replacement from the Refurbished portable audio range without the guilt.
  • Refurbished headphones and portable audio

Of course as mums, we want to feel confident before we click ‘Buy Now’, especially when it’s something our kids will be using every day at school. eBay makes it easy to know exactly what you’re getting. Each Refurbished item is listed with a condition label, so you can pick what suits your budget and comfort level:

  • Certified: Like new, professionally inspected, top of the line. Sold by the manufacturer or an authorised reseller.
  • Excellent: Minor signs of use, but fully functional and tested.
  • Very Good: Light wear but still performs exactly as it should.
  • Good: Visible signs of use, still fully tested and working fine.

No matter which of these conditions the tech is assigned, they are all still covered by a minimum one year warranty** and have been rigorously inspected. So whether you want the best of the best, or you’re happy with something that’s seen a few fingerprints, there’s a level that works for every family.

A smarter way to shop

I’m always weighing up cost vs. quality. And with everything money-related feeling a bit tighter lately, it’s a huge relief to find a genuine way to save without sacrificing trust or quality.

eBay’s Refurbished tech range really hits that sweet spot – solid gear, name brands, family-safe prices. No panic when the kids need a device, just reliable tech that performs.
So next time someone drops their tablet or announces they need a new phone for high school, don’t stress. Pop over to eBay and take a look – you might be surprised what you find.

Shop Refurbished tech now at eBay.

  • I’m thinking about getting my son a refurbished iPad for his birthday this year as he will be needed one when he starts school next year and I’m worried with it just being thrown around in his bag and in class that it may not be cared for as much. I haven’t heard anything bad about refurbished devices and they are a lot cheaper

    Reply

  • The other thing about refurbished tech is that – let’s be honest – kids don’t always take care of things. Start them off wiht less expensive tech, and it’s a bit less of a drama when something gets lost or damaged. It’s still not great, but it’s marginally better when it comes to replacement!

    Reply

  • Thanks for sharing this article; it is so important to share knowledge and resources. Tech can be expensive and any saving is indeed an absolute bonus for the family budget. I was not aware of being able to search for and purchase refurbished tech. I will be sharing this information with all of my networks.

  • I wish this had been available when my boys were going to school. It would have saved so much scrimping and saving to make sure they didn’t go without at school. It meant we couldn’t go away on holidays because I’d have to keep working to keep up. They were definitely worth it though.

  • My husband is a huge fan of refurbished tech, especially phones. There are a lot of businesses that will supply company phones and replace them for latest models once the contracts are up, which can be as little as 1 year. We have both had great experience with it so I would definitely recommend it

    Reply

  • That is an amazing tip – I had never heard of this before but sounds like a great way to save money! I am hesitant with what tech I allow for my kids. My daughter gets a Chromebook supplied by her school on a rent to buy scheme, so we don’t get a choice in that. She is definitely not at the maturity level yet for a smart phone though, so she only has a Nokia and we have very strict restrictions on her school computer.

  • Thanks for sharing your tips.
    I leave it to my husband to research and buy these type of items as he has his own computer repair business and has far more idea of what he is buying. He does refurbishing and upgrading from computers and laptops himself as well and in fact regularly builds computers from scratch upon request from clients.

  • My laptop is a refurbished one and I have been using it for years without any major problems. I have had to replace the adapter but otherwise it has been a reliable piece of tech. I would recommend buying from a reputable seller with good reviews.

  • can say ive ever purchased something refurbished in tech but its important to do your research into it before buying. it can be a fantastic way to save money for something that will become outdated in a couple years to a newer model. but always be wary of products that are too damaged or come with a bad battery as it’ll cost you more long term

  • I have bought a lot of refurbished tech over the years, and have had very few problems. Admittedly I used to use Catch of the Day (which has sadly shut down now). But still, it’s generally been a good experience. I have hesitated a bit to buy tech through eBay because they’re great until there’s a problem.

    Reply

  • I know my daughter is going to need an iPad for school in a couple of years, so i have already started saving for it but this is a great option for those who would like to consider a refurbished one. I have looked at these before but don’t know anyone who has purchased one and i am hesitant to actually buy one without knowing someone who has.

  • Overlapping this with end of financial year or boxing day sales and Cash Rewards or Shop Back cash back adds further savings again. I also ensure I list these on my insurance incidentals for if the kids lose them outside of home and back up to cloud to avoid the unexpected bill and lost homework disaster but we have not had to use this yet.
