Bought this for catching my let down while breastfeeding my 2nd baby. Wish I had found out about this product when I was still breastfeeding my first child as I let so much milk go to waste. It’s so easy and convenient to use and the best part is that it’s easy to clean.
The very first time using it felt awkward though, it was a little bit painful and took some getting used to but once I broke it in, it became much more comfortable. (I guess just like getting used to breastfeeding in general).

Great product, only issue is that I find it is too big to use and the suction bottom can stick into your side if using to catch let down when feeding/pumping.

I bought this as everybody raves about it. I found it incredibly painful and a very very slow way of collecting breast milk
Polodobo –
Excellent product and arrived on good condition.

So easy to use and so comfortable – used an electric pump with my first child which I found painful and didn’t get much supply from. Using this one has been simple and I’ve managed to get a large supply going thanks to it.

Absolutely love my Haakaa it helps me save every precious drop while feeding for use later. Easy to attach using a simple suction technique & the lid ensures no tragic spills once finished

I bought the haaka as I was advised by many mums to purchase a pump before the arrival of my first baby. I didn’t want to fork out $200+ for an expensive pump when I wasn’t even sure I’d produce enough milk to pump or would ever need to pump.
As I have a good supply, and my baby is an efficient drinker and gets what she needs from one breast, the haaka was very helpful in capturing the letdown from the other breast while I nursed and in relieving discomfort. As lactation consultants advise against pumping for the first few weeks in order to avoid oversupply, the haaka was perfect and just what I needed (I only used it once a day when really necessary as, while not as effective as a pump, it does still stimulate some supply -I.e. it doesn’t just purely catch the letdown).
Unless you need to quickly build a supply of breast milk I think the haaka is all you need for the first few weeks. I’ve been able to slowly build up a supply of frozen milk using just the haaka.

So I don’t usually review but I had to do a detailed review for this one!
My haakaa arrived last week and I’ve been in love since then! I exclusively breastfeed and don’t plan on returning to work anytime soon but wanted to express a few times a day to build a stash of top up feeds for my newborn bub. I have a medela harmony manual pump and it works great but it takes time and effort to pump and isn’t the easiest to clean.
I came across the haakaa and thought I would give it a go. It took a while for me to get the hang of it but after watching YouTube videos, reading various article reviews online and practising first hand, I’m now a big fan! Lots of milk always at hand for top ups without actually having to take out the time and energy to pump manually (and wash countless parts). It’s discreet (silent) and is portable enough to use anywhere and everywhere! And it’s a breeze to clean up! And you just can’t go wrong with the price. This has to be one of my favourite purchases of all time!
Top tips:
1. I’ve noticed haakaa works best with bub nursing on one side. Even better if you can swap sides during the feeding session.
2. Morning and night times of course are ideal for maximum collection.
3. Make sure the haakaa is positioned correctly by inverting the flange first and ensuring nipple is in the middle (it will be painless this way and will result in optimal output too). Also massaging breasts prior to haakaa attachment (and during it) and repositioning it a few times during the feeding will ensure milk doesn’t stop flowing (gets easier with practice).
4. If baby is away or you need to pump a full feed, you can use haakaa on one side and your electric/manual pump on the other side. Again massaging breasts and swapping sides will result in maximum output in lesser time.
5. Haakaa does increase milk supply if you allow it to extract more milk than the initial letdown but if you need to restablish low supply, you should use your regular pump for a few days and then switch to haakaa for day to day.
6. It is ideal for mums who need to store a bit extra for when they are out and about or need to top feed. On its own it’s not ideal for say working mums looking to pump full feeds.
Hope this helps. Best of luck all you amazing mamas xx
