The Haakaa Generation 3 Silicone Breast Pump is a modern upgrade to the classic manual pump, now with a detachable bottle base for even greater flexibility. This compact, hands-free pump lets you collect milk during nursing or quickly express a bottle when you need a break. The Gen 3 design works seamlessly with Haakaa’s silicone bottle attachments, so you can pump directly into a storage or feeding bottle.
Haakaa Generation 3 Silicone Breast Pump: Key Features
This pump combines gentle, effective suction with the convenience of a modular system. Simply squeeze the flange to create suction, attach it to your breast, and let the pump do the work. The bottle base twists off easily, allowing you to place a nipple or storage cap for instant transition.
Compatibility and Sizes
The Generation 3 pump is available in 160 ml/6 oz and 250 ml/9 oz sizes, and both fit all Haakaa Gen 3 bottle attachments. This means you can pump, store, and feed without transferring milk, reducing waste and contamination.
How to Use and Get Better Suction
To achieve the best suction, ensure your breast is centered in the flange and the pump is firmly pressed. Squeeze the bulb a few times to create a vacuum. If you feel a loss of suction, check that the flange is still aligned and the silicone is warm (body temperature).
Cleaning and Sterilization
All parts are designed for easy cleaning. Wash with warm, soapy water or place on the top rack of your dishwasher. To sterilize, boil the parts for 3 minutes, making sure not to over-boil. Avoid using oily soaps, as they can degrade the silicone.
This pump is perfect for exclusive pumpers, working moms, or those looking to build a stash without the bulk of an electric pump.
