There are a couple of medela mini's on ebay going for about £30-40, i think one has new valves with it.
Will have a trawl through tonight.

I got a spectra dew. It's also a fraction of the pride of the medela and is far more efficient. I was expressing every 2 hours for the first 2 months with Percy as he could feed and thus pump saved me :D

Honestly don't waste money on the medela the Ameda Lactalines are better and half the price. I got a dual electric pump for £14 off eBay and it's brilliant!!!

Will keep an eye out for the ameda on ebay i think, there are a couple listed and im watching them.

I've also found a pump rental website called ana wiz that rents the spectra dew, so might try that if i cant get a cheap one.

I had a medala with Ewan and it was useless. The Lactaline was much better (I still hated pumping but at least it worked!)
I got it secondhand, but if you buy new it will definitely sell on.

I have found a spectra dew for £30 all in... Should i go for it?
Its the same as the ones that are rented out by ana wiz so for the price of a months rent i could keep it and hopefully sell on?

Im so indecisive, help!

Not a brand I know, but if it's highly recommended by and expert it sounds like a good deal
