Double breast pump recommendations

Hi all, I currently have the Madela solo electric pump but I want to buy a double pump to save time as I want to transition over from BF to pumping and bottles. I’m looking for a hand free one, my Madela one says it’s hands free but it’s a bit of a pain with the battery attached. Also I feel like I need to lean forward all the time otherwise it leaks. Any recommendations would be great thank you!

My favorite is the lansinoh 3.0! But spectra is pretty good too. If you’re buying out of pocket it’s worth it to buy the rechargeable version of whatever you pick. Lansinoh 3.0 works charged, or plugged in

The Medela freestyle handsfree would be my go to, although the battery/motor is annoying. I just used to hook it into the bit where my nursing bra uncliped so I didn’t have to hold it. Otherwise I loved the momcozy M5s, super comfortable and easy to wear

I have used the Elvie pumps since my son was born and now nearly 5 months. They have been brilliant, they are pricey compared to other brands but I pump on average 8 times a day for the past 5 months and never had any problems with them, I couldn’t recommend them enough x

@Shani can I ask what Elvie pump please? And do you pump and give bottle to your LO I am going to start doing this but don’t know how and I currently feed my LO every 2 hours I’m not sure how much he has! Do you mind sharing your schedule please?
