Lately, I’ve had quite a few friends reach out, curious about the hands-free KISSBOBO M1. “Is it worth it?” they ask. “What makes it different from other pumps?” Choosing the right breast pump can feel overwhelming. So, I figured why not share a full introduction to the M1 and help answer some of those questions. Spoiler: this wearable breast pump is packed with features that make life a whole lot easier for busy breastfeeding moms.
Compact Power in Your Hands
The KISSBOBO M1 is a type of electric pump all about convenience and performance. Weighing just 249g, it's lightweight and easy to carry around without compromising on power. With four modes and nine adjustable intensity levels, it's designed to let you personalize your pumping experience and find the setting that works best for you. Its suction strength ranges from 280 mmHg to 320 mmHg, ensuring efficient milk expression while helping maintain your breast milk supply.
The milk ejection reflex mode, designed with a three-short-one-long rhythm, mimics a baby’s natural sucking pattern for a more comfortable pumping session. The 20-minute automatic shut-off is especially helpful when you’re multitasking and forget to turn it off. Fully charged in three hours, the rechargeable battery provides up to 80 minutes of pumping, which is plenty for multiple sessions throughout the day.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Use the KISSBOBO M1
Getting started with the M1 is easy, but following a few simple steps will help ensure a successful pumping experience:
- Assemble the Pump: Ensure all parts are clean and dry before assembly. Attach the silicone flange to the milk collection cup and secure it with the connector. Make sure the breast shield and diaphragm are properly sealed to avoid leaks.
2. Position the Pump Correctly: Place the flange over your breast, ensuring that your nipple is centered and fits comfortably inside the shield. Use the included bra extension strap for hands-free pumping if needed.
3. Select Your Mode: Turn on the M1 and choose a mode based on your needs:
- Milk Ejection Reflex Mode: To stimulate letdown (three short, one long).
- Automatic Mode: Alternates between stimulation and suction (five short, ten long).
- Massage Mode: Simulates a baby's natural sucking rhythm to stimulate milk flow and relieve breast pressure.
- Suction Mode: For deeper milk extraction.
Adjust the intensity level to find what feels most comfortable for you.
4. Monitor and Adjust: Use the intuitive controls to monitor date and time of your session and adjust settings as needed. The pump will automatically turn off after 20 minutes, but you can restart it if you need to continue pumping.
5. Storing Milk: After pumping, transfer your breast milk to storage bags or compatible containers for safe storing milk for future use.
Designed for Comfort and Convenience
Comfort is key when it comes to pumping, and the M1 delivers. The breast pump silicone insert and multiple flange sizes (19mm and 21mm) ensure moms find the right fit for their body, reducing discomfort and enhancing milk flow.
Operating at less than 55dB, the M1 is so quiet you can pump during a Zoom call or while your little one sleeps without worrying about disturbing anyone. Its compact size makes it perfect for life on the go, fitting easily into a breast pump travel bag or breast pump purse for discreet pumping wherever you are.
Easy Maintenance and Cleaning
Keeping your M1 clean and hygienic is simple:
- Disassemble all parts that come into contact with baby milk, including the silicone inserts and valves.
- Wash thoroughly with warm water and mild soap.
- Sterilize the pump parts by boiling for five minutes or using a microwave sterilizer.
- Make sure all parts are completely dry before reassembling to maintain proper suction and prevent leaks.
Regular maintenance is crucial for avoiding issues like mastitis and ensuring your pump stays in top condition.
