Introducing the Philips AVENT Comfort Single Electric Breast Pump – Your essential breastfeeding companion.

Breast milk is without a doubt the best for your baby’s start in life. But every mother is different and you may need some assistance to ensure you are able to breast feed for longer. Philips AVENT understand this and have developed a range of products to support you in your feeding journey.

Getting a breast pump as part of preparation for baby is the first step. A breast pump can help you establish supply but also allows you to share the feeding experience with loved ones.

Finding the best breast pump for you is easy with the help of the Philips AVENT Comfort Breast pump range.

Philips Avent Comfort single electric breast pump … 

When you’re comfortable and relaxed, your milk flows more easily.* That is why Philips Avent has created their most comfortable breast pump yet for easy expressing at a touch of a button. Now you can sit comfortably while expressing with no need to lean forward, while the soft massage cushion gently stimulates your milk flow giving you and your baby the most comfortable and natural feeding experience. So, whether you’re breastfeeding, bottle feeding or both, the new Comfort range from Philips Avent is designed with you in mind.

Unique, natural expressing position

The Comfort breast pump is the only pump that allows mothers to express in a comfortable position instead of leaning forward, which often leads to discomfort and back pain. Sitting up straight will allow the milk to flow directly from the breast into the container. This improved expressing position helps mothers feel more comfortable and as a result, express more milk naturally.

Clinically proven to be effective

The Comfort breast pump features our clinically proven massage cushion with soft petals that gently compress the breast to stimulate milk flow.  The innovative cushion has a distinctive, velvety texture that feels warm on the breast, further helping mothers to relax whilst expressing. The removable cushion also prevents milk pooling, aiding hygiene and eliminating the risk of lost milk.

Simple Settings

To stimulate the let-down reflex, mothers can start in a gentle stimulation mode then they can choose from 3 expression settings, depending on their preference for suction intensity.

Easy to combine breast and bottle feeding

Combining breast and bottle has never been easier with the new Natural bottles and Comfort breast pump range. The Natural bottle and Comfort breast pump integrate fully, so mothers can pump, store and feed with the same Natural feeding bottle-without the need to transfer milk.

Philips AVENT – Supporting you every step of the way.

*More comfort: 82% of 64 UK breastfeeding mothers agreed that this breast pump was more comfortable than their current pump (main market brands). Home placement test carried out in the UK in 2011 with 73 first time mothers – 94% of mums strongly agree that being comfortable while expressing is important for good milk flow. More milk naturally; independent research has shown that there is a link between stress levels and milk production. Burton PM, Kennedy K Ahluwalia J, Nicholl R, Lucas A, Fewtrell M.

  • Makes Expressing Simple

    The Philips AVENT Comfort Single Electric Breast Pump made expressing milk very simple. The product is very easy to set up, pack away and clean. The controls assist in making sure that you produce as much milk as possible while not being rough on you. The manual breast pump I was using became quite tiring to use. I would defiantly recommend this electric product to any breast feeding mother.

  • Love this

    I used this breast pump when my daughter was a smaller bub. It was fantastic, nice and gentle. It helped get a good supply plus extra to keep in the freezer. I loved all of the different settlings and the ability to put the bottle straight onto a connection to feed directly to my baby. I highly recommend all avent products to all new mums. This was the better of three different breast pumps that I tried.

  • Great pump

    I purchased the avent manual breast pump which I found to be not so great. I learnt the hard way after trying to express and not working. I almost gave up but we decided to purchase the electric pump. The best thing I did. This way my baby could get the best milk. I no longer use it. But wil definitely use it if we have another baby.

  • Love it!!!

    This is the First time I’m using the pump and I’m very impressed! The most noticeable change with this pump for me was the way the pump works while you can sit back in a chair..It is so nice to be able to be relaxed while you pump! I always dreaded pumping as I knew it would mean hunching forward over the pump so that milk would flow into the bottle..
    This increased comfort feels like such a luxury! And I think it contributed to the amount of milk I was able to collect! As I said already…very impressed so far!

  • Growing on me

    I have to say that i love this breast pump. i’ve not used another brand prior to this one though, so can’t comment on a comparison. This is rather easy to use. IT is easy to pull apart and clean. The gentle sucking action gets you started, then you simply choose the “strength” based on your flow. The plastic does yellow after a while however.

  • Yellows with time

    Further to my first review on this pump, I have attached a picture of the yellowing of the plastic parts of the pump with time. This is despite cleaning thoroughly and storing properly. Of course it does not affect the usage at all (I hope). Still a very versatile pump, not too big either so could use it at work if necessary. This is the only pump I have used so can’t compare whether it is more or less effortless than other brands.

  • Great little breastpump

    I was unfortunately not chosen to review this breast pump, but I have purchased one anyway, so will give my 2 cents here. The pump is very easy to assemble. Initially I had trouble getting used to the pump, but now it is so easy to use. You simply use one function to create the flow, then depending on how full you are, you can use the other functions to empty faster. The only problem that i have is that after storage for a short period, the clear plastic parts have become yellow tinged. Even after cleaning and storing properly.

  • Adequate but prefer other brand

    I tried this advent breast pump and whilst it was easy to use I did have trouble getting enough milk out, I switched to a different brand that was able to suction it out more easily. I would recommend it though as an alternative for other mothers to try. Every woman is different so it may suit them better than it did me.

  • One month in and still happy!

    I’ve now been using the Philips Avent Comfort Single Electric Breast Pump for just over a month. It’s been an absolute life saver given the strict pumping regime I’ve been on to get some weight on my now 9 week old bub. It’s so much simpler to do having a hand free. I just have to ensure my nipple is correctly positioned at all time for maxim output. Overall, it’s easy to use and does the job efficiently. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to check it out and have no hesitation in recommending it to other mums!

    What a amazing pump after having many children and using lots of different pumps this one stands out by far.

    I did not feel like a cow being milked as it was so quiet and was so gentle to use
    Loved the fact I could express straight to a bottle for feeding.

  • Happiness in a magical package!

    Doing my final review today. I am so grateful for the opportunity to review this pump! Last Thursday my dentist free lifestyle (apart from annual checkup and clean) came to an end when my delightful wisdom tooth reared its ugly head… Right through my gum and into my cheek! Knowing that I’m going to have to have it removed (unsure if in the chair or hospital) I know this will mean time away from bubs. Thankfully this little magic machine is here! Pumping away with ease to make sure I have enough milk. I’m off to the dentist for the verdict today. Again, I’m so happy with this pump and how easy it is making pumping for me and bubs. Cleaning is a breeze too… Which is great because I hate washing up!! Thanks again for the opportunity Mouths of Mums; and thanks Avent for creating a fantastic product!

  • So comfortable you could fall asleep

    Unfortunately my daughter didn’t take to the breast so I was dreading using a pump of any kind. But after having a good look at a few different models I chose this one. The soft cushioned cups are like massaging pillows that do all the work for you! That was great! And I could put the milk straight into her avent bottles, then the fridge, sounds too easy doesn’t it? As a single mum it made life so so much easier.
    Thanks Avent/ Phillips

Topics

Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!

But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier). 

You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!

Pack Smart, Not Big

Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?

Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and

  • A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
  • A dry bag for clothes
  • A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
  • A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
  • A pop-up tent for changing
  • Waterproof phone case
  • Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
  • A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!

“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member

Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts

It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:

  • Swimming between the flags at the beach
  • Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
  • Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel. 

Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.

That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!

Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier

  • The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
  • Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
  • SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
  • Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
  • Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.

Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.

Prep & Time It Perfectly

There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.

“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member

Pack Smart Snacks

Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:

  • Chopped fruit
  • Crackers
  • Boiled eggs
  • Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight

“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member

A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!

You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!

New Banana Boat Sport SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml and Banana Boat Kids SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ 200ml (RRP $28.00) are available now at leading pharmacies, supermarkets and online retailers nationwide. 


Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
