Why was this breast pump discontinued?

According to a Philips Avent representative. The reason they discontinued this particular model is because they made a newer version.

My information indicates that a new model was released. I don't see any specific problems with this unit.

I believe it's the fact that the product has been discontinued and is now rare to find.

Hi Jonathan, This item has been discontinued by the manufacturer and as such it is now a more difficult item to find on the market. Hope that helps. :)

I don't think so. It doesn't even work with previous model of avent breast pump.

I'm sorry but there isn't one. I'm serious. I have no idea why they took this wonderful product off the market.

It's been displayed in my store for while. Factory discontinued doesn't mean it was sold out anywhere. Thank you for your inquiry.

I am a 36 D to DD when nursing and it worked fine for a short time. However, it broke and the company would not do anything to rectify the situation. Your money is better spent on a better pump, even if it costs more money. You should consider investing in a Medela. Please read my review and don't waste your money!

Laurie, I have no idea why it was discontinued or that it had been discontinued until I got this inquiry from Amazon. I am very satisfied with the one I bought. It does a good job at trimming grass and weeds in areas where you can not use a string trimmer or lawn mower. It won't cut large tough weeds, but then it wasn't designed to do that. I'm sorry to hear that you can't buy it anymore.

I suspect, since the product appears discontinued, there's little supply left. I wrote SC requesting they resume it, but at the "new" exorbitant price, it's cost prohibitive, meaning I'll try the Stretch-Tite, as I've heard it performs well, notwithstanding the lack of cutter.

Not sure I would think because they had came out with a newer model would be why this one was discontinued

Sorry it took a few days to answer this - I had to check since it had been so long! You can absolutely switch out the breast shields. The same yellow piece with the white membrane can be changed to the different shields. Good luck & happy pumping!

I dont know. I didnt have that pump. I mostly used them as a bottle with a nipple. Its been about 4 years since I used these. I remember we really liked them.

SONY discontinued this product since they've released newer ones. And with the age-old immutable laws of marketing, older models gradually become obsolete as new models arrive.

For me it was not easy to pump one handed maybe because my breast was heavy and I needed to stabilize with other hand so pump could suction down. Otherwise it would lose suction.

I've had the same problem...and sorry to tell you I was told by the company they don't sell replacement pumps for these. I wasn't able to find a different brand pump to fit either.

This is a breast pump that is capable of using batteries or plugging into an outlet. I used the battery pack a couple of times. It was a nice option two options.
