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.

  • Hopeless

    This device is a complete and utter waste of money. As a healthcare worker, I am familiar with how this device is assembled and what it is meant to do. Despite our baby breast feeding well with plentiful milk supply, we were unable to get more than 5 mls of milk from either breast under any conditions, even after 30 mins of pumping. This isn\\\’t close to enough milk for our 7kg baby.
    The suction is completely inadequate.
    Even worse is the appalling customer service and the refusal to offer a refund. The Chemist Warehouse in Sth Melb were similarly unhelpful.
    \\\’Have we tried using it with a photo of baby in front of us to help stimulate milk flow?\\\’ was the most condescending of all suggestions.
    This is the worst electronic device I have ever purchased. Both Philips and Chemist Warehouse have lost us as customers for life.
    A $189 scam.

  • Great breast pump

    This pump is amazing! I had been trying unsuccessfully to pump with another pump for 3 months. I was sent the Avent electric about 3 weeks before my wedding which I desperately wanted some milk stocked up for. Well the first time I pumped I got 60mlS. The most ever! And after 3 weeks I get 260ml from one side every morning. I would definitely recommend to every expectant mum!

  • Overall a great pump

    This is a great pump overall, It certainly isn’t a hospital grade one though. It is easy to use, quite comfortbale to use and I got a lot of milk, It could be more powerful though. for the price it is great though and avent are great products. My daughter took straight to the avent bottles so this pump made it easy to pump and feed without having to switch bottles around. Overall I would recommend to other mums.

  • Couldn't live without it.

    Thankfully breastfeeding came easily for me but I’ve still used my breast pump to relieve engorgement and then when my bub went on a breastfeeding strike. When you’re pumping many times a day, this pump is amazing as it’s so convenient to use. I can read a book while pumping and instead of it being a hassle, it’s actually some great down time. So easy to use and clean. It is one product that I just couldn’t live without!

  • Better than hospital pumps!

    So my baby was preemie and didn’t suck so was tube fed for 5-6 days of his life, which meant from the get go, I was either squeezing or pumping until I couldn’t anymore. But I had to use the hospital pump originally, oh it was horrendous! Also, (TMI) but my nipples were too big for the hospital ones, which only happens like 4 times a year (lucky me!), I had to go home the 4th day after having him, which was horrible but amazing as I was able to pump at home. It isn’t a flawless pump, but it is awesome! I would highly recommend it, next time I think I would invest in a double if I am express feeding.

  • Better than the $2000 pump!

    When my daughter was born 2 months premature she had to be fed with expressed milk. The hospital allowed me to use their machine but to be abe to express every 3 hours after visiting hours I had to pay $2000 a hospital machine of my own (becuase having a baby inn the NICU isn’t stressful enough). I was despodant that I could only afford this one from the chemist… until I tried it. No only did I get a higher yeild with the Avent but it took less time and was kinder to my chest than the hospitl machine was.

    Being more comfortable my milk let down properly and my production increased rapidly meaning that my baby no longer neeeded to be topped up with formula, she was able to be 100% breast fed. I no longer needed to worry about cracked and sore nipples and the machine itself was so much easier to clean, assemble and disassemble. Some of them require a uni degree to work, I swear!

    Once we got home from hospital and my daughter was strong enough to feed… straight form the source so to speak, I kept using the pump after feeds to build up a supply of frozen milk which made feeding on the go super easy, my family could bond with her while bottle feeding and I could have her baby sat if need be. Avent products all fit together which made everything so easy. Just grab a bottle from the sterilizer, screw on, express and freeze, done.

  • Very gentle and relaxing way to express

    The Phillips Avent single electric breast pump is fantastic. After using another pump which I purchased overseas I was amazed at how gentle the Phillips pump was. Even on the lowest setting I am getting a great amount of milk at any time of the day. The unit is compact and easy to assemble, and I love that you can put the cap on when finished so that you don’t spill any precious milk. I would highly recommend it to any nursing mum’s.

    The pump felt comfortable against breast – felt as if baby was feeding, it doesn’t hurt, nice and small so it doesn’t take up a lot of room, very easy to use as it has three button for different speeds and it is very easy to clean,a little noisey but not enough to wake baby, does only come with a small 120ml bottle so might need to buy bigger bottles.

  • It's not my type of pump, but it works, and is easy to clean

    This pump is not my cup of tea. There is nothing wrong with it, if you haven’t tried the other pump I am using which is the swing pump by Medalla.

    I honestly would recommend it as a lower priced pump, but also that its functioning whilst average is not excellent as I have experienced.

    That said it is effortless to assemble and use and clean thats always a win if you ask me.

    I do not express as much milk with this pump, as with my other pump. I was lucky to have been gifted both pumps and since have given away the Phillips single electric to a charity for women where I am sure it will be well used and appreciated also.

    It was comfortable to use, no problems at all just not more comfortable than my Medalla.

  • easy to assemble and use.

    I had a preemie bubby so leaving hospital a breast pump was an essential for me. I absolutely loved my avent pump. It was comfy, easy to use and assemble and clean. I always expressed more with my acent pump then I did with the hospital pumps. It would be great if it was a double pump but other then that I highly recommend this product especially for mummas of prems. Its quiet and durable. Ive put it away for future babies

  • Wasn't a fan at all. Ruined my milk supply!

    I left my pump home on a vacation with my partners family. Luckily his sister had a breast pump. I used it for 1 whole day and it took me at least 40 mins to get 100ml when my normal pump would easily give me 250ml. By the time I started using my normal pump again all I could get was 150ml and bub was so hungry and unsettled it made me so mad. Some mums are different though and this pump may work or them but this is just my experience.

  • Satisfactory pump for the money you pay.

    I found I had to lean forward while expressing or the milk would drip out from the pump. Also, although my supply was great and strong let down, I could never pump much with this pump. I know the milk was there as I could hand express a lot more after finishing with the pump.

    after being at home for a few days and struggling with over full boobs, my husband and i decided we needed to fix the problem before i got sick. i had been hand expressing in the shower while this seemed to help it wasn’t at all practical who has time to get in the shower every time i had this discomfort. when we got it home it looked complicated but didn’t take more than 10min from box to actually using the product. i love how simple it is to use and how easy it is is to clean . its also works great with the avent range of bottles, you don’t have to transfer the milk just attached the bottle lid and your good to go . i currently breastfeed but for the times i have to much milk its been a life saver and i will continue to use and recommend it .

Buon Appetito! A Busy Mum’s Guide To Memorable, Simple Summer Entertaining

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

Sandhurst

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Sandhurst

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

How To Put Together A Charcuterie Board 

Sandhurst article image

There are no right or wrong ways to create a charcuterie board, but to ensure a balance of textures and flavours try to include:

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!
