When you’re a mom on the go, you need a breast pump that really works. That’s why we’re fans of the Philips AVENT Twin Electric Breast Pump ($280). Not only does it express milk quickly, but it’s super quiet. Check out our review below.

Things We Like:

Easy-to-use and easy-to-clean, it has really strong suction. So unlike other pumps, you don’t have to spend hours waiting for your milk to come down.

Plus, you have the option to manually pump or use the automated memory to set the perfect rhythm.
