Willow Go Breast Pump

I was hesitant to spend money on another wearable pump since I didn’t have much success with the first one I got through insurance. This is my third pumping journey, and I’ve never had issues with output before—so I decided to take a chance on the Willow Go. I am so glad I did! I’ve responded really well to it and have been pumping successfully so far. It seems to empty me very similarly to my blue Spectra. This output was about 30 minutes after nursing on one side, which really impressed me. On top of that, it’s incredibly easy to put together and use, and cleanup is simple too!

Ok so I exclusively pump and I absolutely hate it but I want my baby to have antibodies from my milk at least the first 6 months. In an effort to simplify my pumping and save my sanity I have owned several wearables. Momcozy S12, Momcozy M1, Bellababy, and Willow 3.0. Each one had its pros and cons but I kept searching for the perfect pump. This is it. The S12 had great suction but the motors were clunky and fell off easily. The Bellababy started turning itself on and off after 3 days of use and the shape was weird. The Willow 3.0 was a mess, when I could get it to work right the suction was very strange and I could barely get any milk. I sold this one with a quickness and was reluctant to get anything else from Willow but I'm glad I did. The M1 is my second favorite and closest in performance to the Willow Go but it's very round and protruding and feels clunky so I only use that one at home. However, it does empty me faster than the Willow. I find I have to run a 30-40 minute cycle on Willow and only 20 with the M1 but the Willow is much more comfortable to wear. The Willow Go is the most comfortable pump I have ever used and that includes my wall pumps like the Medela PIS and Motif Duo with cushions. Some people can use the Willow Go as their main pump but I am only 5 weeks PP so that is not recommended although honestly I pretty much use wearables exclusively because working from home with a newborn and a farm leaves you 0 time to sit by the wall for 20 mins. Pros -Relatively quiet compared to cheaper wearables -EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE -Great suction. This thing SUCKS and in the best way. I normally use my M1 and S12 at full suction but with the Willow I use it at 4-5. -Beautiful and just feels premium, fits the breast perfectly and no one can tell im wearing it (as long as they cant hear me) -High capacity cups (holds way more than Willow 3.0) -The parts are easy to assemble/disassemble and clean Cons: -The app sucks, disconnects a lot and doesnt really do much other than show you how long and which setting you are on -Louder than Willow 3.0 but not by much -Takes longer to empty me than other wearables -Battery life could be better, I only get about 2 30-min sessions, but it does recharge pretty quick Overall I would not recommend the 3.0 but I would def recommend the Willow Go for exactly as the name states, on the Go. It's the perfect pump for traveling or completing outside chores etc. just would not recommend as main pump but that goes for any wearable.

I really wanted to like these pumps. I’m so bummed I returned the product within 30 days. Here are my takeaways. Pros 1. When the pumps work, they work really well! 2. Comfortable suction 3. Lots of people say their pumping outputs are decreased with wearables. I was lucky and didn’t see a major decline in amount pumped. Cons 1. If you like using the fridge method for saving on washing after EVERY use, this pump is not for you. You really have to wash the parts after every use for the pumps to function properly. 2. You have to make sure all pump parts are perfectly dried and installed/aligned properly for use. Very sensitive and finicky. 3. Both pumps had broken motors within 30 days of use. I kept them clean and didn’t get them wet. So disappointing. 4. Positional with leaking issues. I know you can’t be super active while wearing the pumps but one wrong twist or minor movement and it gets messy or stops working all together. 5. Customer service was nice and thorough but to get a replacement pump I had to troubleshoot on the phone with them, take multiple photos and videos demonstrating issue, provide receipts, etc. they mailed a replacement pump promptly, but you had to do A LOT to get the replacement. I chose this product because Willow has been around for awhile and this was their best seller. I wish it worked but buyer beware

Easy too use, boosted my babies mom milk production and they keep a digital log of production and pumping times

I was skeptical based on some of the negative reviews I saw but this pump has been truly amazing. I have flat nipples and large breasts so I wasn’t sure I’d ever be able to tandem pump and nurse my baby successfully. However, the gentle suction got double out of one breast what I typically got out of both when hand expressing with a manual pump or my haakaa. It’s also much quieter and more convenient to use than my spectra for overnight pumping. I still use my spectra on a daily basis but not having to worry about the cords and tubes at night when I’m tired has been great. The only drawback to these pumps is that there are so many parts to disassemble and put back together but, once you’ve done it a couple of times, it’s really not that bad. Just make sure all parts are dry before reassembling and then gently tug on the diaphragm before attaching the clear flanges to the back. I haven’t had any suction issues since. Also, make sure to get fitted for proper insert sizes with a lactation consultant for the most comfortable experience since the 24 mm flanges that come standard with the pumps are much too big for most people (I got sized and found out I needed a 17 mm fitted insert). Update: I was having difficulty syncing my pumps to my phone and figured out that if you disconnect Bluetooth the batteries on the pumps last forever. I can now use these pumps throughout the day on one charge which is fantastic since I’m back to work full time. Just a tip for anyone annoyed by the short battery lifespan like I was! Happy pumping!

I absolutely LOVE this breast pump! As a working mom who spends a lot of time stuck in traffic every morning and evening, this pump has been a lifesaver. It's so convenient and easy to use — I just wear it inside my bra and pump while driving. No wires, no hassle, and it's super discreet. The hands-free design allows me to make the most of my commute without sacrificing my pumping schedule. It's comfortable, quiet, and surprisingly efficient. I honestly don't know how I managed before getting this! If you're a busy mom looking for something that fits into your routine without slowing you down, I highly recommend this pump. Total game-changer!

this pump worked for 1 week, then i reached out to go willow, because i purchsed it off amazon they would not help. I have broght this up with Amazon still waiting for an answer months later

Expensive but well worth the splurge.. I’ve been a mom for 3 years and went through 4 different brands of pump until I found this gem. These containers have little tops so it doesn’t leak when you tilt. A must have

After using Willow Go for two months, one of the pumps stopped charging. The app shows that it’s charging, but it actually isn’t. The app itself is also terrible — it connects to the pumps very slowly, and the timer sometimes counts in the wrong direction. On top of that, there are times when there’s no suction at all, which is incredibly frustrating, especially at night when you have to take everything apart and reassemble it two or three times just to get it working again.

They don’t really work, they leak no matter what, I know they are not 100% leak proof and just splash proof but not even that works, they splash and leak while a just walk.
