I find it not easy or comfortable to use and I don't think it is maximizing my output. It is also loud. My friends with other brands seem to be having better experiences. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007587 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 02:39:38 +0000 lemondrop 2007587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my Hygeia! (Well, as much as you can love pumping :P )</p> <p>I rented an Ameda hospital grade for my first month, it was fine, but I got better results from the Hygeia. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007383 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 21:20:28 +0000 LaughLines 2007383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anya: i had to choose between those for my insurance, too, and went with the Q because what I saw online it seemed like it was hospital grade and good reviews. Came in the mail last week, but no personal experience yet :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007323 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 20:48:43 +0000 Anya 2007323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsrugbee: :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007320 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 20:48:01 +0000 mrsrugbee 2007320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the Ameda PU and have been very happy with it. </p> <p>(BTW I'm an Anya too!! :D) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007304 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 20:40:37 +0000 LemonLong 2007304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the Ameda first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007299 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 20:35:18 +0000 Anya 2007299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonLong: which one did you have first? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2007006 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 16:40:59 +0000 erinpye 2007006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hated the hygeia and could barely get any output from it. The one I ended up loving is the Medela PISA. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2006997 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 16:35:28 +0000 LemonLong 2006997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had both these pumps and I liked the Hygeia better. There are less pieces, it was more comfortable, and I seemed to get better output with it (different pregnancies though, so maybe hard to compare?). It is heavier than the Ameda though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ameda-purely-yours-or-hygeia-q-double-electric#post-2006981 Fri, 02 Jan 2015 16:24:32 +0000 Anya 2006981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Choosing between these two pumps from my insurance provider. Any experience with or opinions on either? I know it's tough to ask for a comparison because most people have probably only ever used one pump. </p>
