Which Breast Pump Should You Choose?
Kinderkraft’s whole breast pump range wins recognition at the MADE4MUMS TECH AWARDS. Are you heading back to work and wondering how to fit breastfeeding around your daily routine? Or are you simply after a comfortable solution for regular pumping at home? Kinderkraft.co.uk — a baby and parenting brand recognised in numerous rankings for offering the best value for money — has an answer for both scenarios. And, as it turns out, we’re not the only ones taking notice: in this year’s MADE4MUMS TECH AWARDS, the brand’s electric breast pumps — MAMAFLOW, GENTLEFLOW and GENTLENEST — picked up awards and podium places.
Let’s take a look at how the models differ, and which one is right for you.
MAMAFLOW – for mums on the go
MAMAFLOW is a compact, cordless breast pump worn directly in the bra. With no cables or tubes, you can express milk almost unnoticed — at work, while travelling, or simply getting on with your day. It expresses from one breast at a time.
Best for: mums who value mobility and discretion, and want a pump they can use straightaway, with no set-up required.
MAMAFLOW DOUBLE – the same freedom, now for both breasts at once.
MAMAFLOW DOUBLE is the double version of MAMAFLOW. It keeps the same wearable design, cordless build and full freedom of movement, but lets you express from both breasts simultaneously — cutting session time roughly in half compared with the single version.
Best for: mums who want to combine the mobility of a wearable pump with greater efficiency.
GENTLEFLOW – efficient pumping for regular use at home
GENTLEFLOW is a classic double electric breast pump with a compact controller that fits in your pocket, so even with tubing you still get plenty of freedom of movement. The set includes five flange sizes (27 mm, 24 mm, 21 mm, 19 mm and 17 mm) to help you find the right fit, and three operating modes that mirror a baby’s natural feeding rhythm, moving from stimulation to deeper, more efficient expression.
Best for: mums who pump regularly and want efficiency above all else.
GENTLENEST – comfort and warmth for frequent use
GENTLENEST works on the same principle as GENTLEFLOW — simultaneous double pumping — but its stand-out feature is soft-heat, a gentle warming function. The warmth helps relax tense breast tissue and supports natural milk flow. Like GENTLEFLOW, it comes with five flange sizes (17–27 mm).
Best for: mums who pump frequently and want those daily sessions to double as a moment of relaxation.
