Avent ISIS iQ DUO Pump?
I did post this in the Pumping Support forum, but wanted to get some more eyes on my question. I hope that is ok!
What do you ladies know about the Avent ISIS iQ DUO Electric Breast Pump? I have a Medela Swing that my cousin gave me...but it has gone through two babies now (her DD and my DD). The Swing was fine for me, since I only work two days a week, and didn't go back to work until DD was 6 mo old. I probably will do something similar work-wise with this babe again (due in May). But anyway, my BIL & SIL are selling their Avent pump which she only used infrequently for a month - max. They are asking $150 on Craigslist and said they would come down to $125 for me. I have never really heard of anyone that had an Avent before... Advertisement

Re: Avent ISIS iQ DUO Pump?
This is the only pump I could use with success. I got NO milk with my medela pumps but with this pump I was able to pump 3X a day at work for my DS for an entire year. He was breastfed until 17 months.

I love my isis duo! I found it much more comfortable than the medela, and I was also able to get much more milk from my Avent. I exclusively pumped my DD for a year with the Avent.......it held up just fine and I thought the suction was more than adequate. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. $125 is a good price. The duo is a completely closed system, so it is one pump I would buy used......especially from someone I knew. Last edited by gigismomma; 03-17-2012 at 07:44 PM. |

Re: Avent ISIS iQ DUO Pump?
wow, that is cheap! I bought mine for $300 nearly 3 years ago. Maybe if they knew it was selling at Walmart for $170 right now, they might even give it to you much cheaper.

Wondering though if the new Avents are different from yours and SILs since yours are older...

Re: Avent ISIS iQ DUO Pump?
Gosh, I don't know......I just looked at walmart's site and it looks exactly the same. I may have gotten a few more bottles/accessories with mine, but not enough to make a difference. I would be tempted just to buy a new one at that price! I think your BIL will have a hard time selling it for $150 to someone else when people can order a new one for $170.

I have one and loved it when I used it. The suction is super strong. In fact its stronger than my Medela pump. I'm not wilting anymore and hardly ever pumping so my hubby says I need I sell one of the pumps. The Avent I have is in EEEUC. I would sell it to you for $100 shipped if you're interested. I have pix. Still in original box with everything it came with including DVD an storage cooler.
