Medela Sotana! Any one have one?

Question

Not looking for options on spectra, I’m sticking with Medela. I loved my pump in style advanced and will continue to use it for my second baby due here shortly! I luckily have the option to purchase another pump with ins( I will keep one at work and one at home) and I’m interested in the sotana. Anyone have one and have and info on if they like it or not?

Answer

I love mine. I used the PISA 7 years ago with #1.
The sonata is much better. It’s quieter, rechargeable and I love that the pumping power is exactly the same whether it’s plugged in or not.
The parts are much more easier to assemble and clean. I got extra membranes with it because I thought it would be like the pump in style but I actually think I won’t need them.
It comes with 2 shield sizes but I had to get the smaller one.
I love that I can set the timer (usually 10 minutes for me) and just start it and get busy doing something else. I’m able to go to the highest setting without it being uncomfortable and when I’m done, I can just press the button and let it go extra time if I wanted.
The only 2 issues I face with it is that the bag adaptors don’t work with it but I’m doing fine not pumping in bags and that the battery indicator is not always clear and sometimes I forget to charge it so it stops mid-pump.
I don’t use the pumping app so I cannot comment on that

Answer

I have the Sonata and I LOVE it so far.

Answer

Following. I have two Medelas and like hem. Even have a spectra. But the sonata..... looks like a dream! But idk if it is worth $389.00. By I don’t think insurance covers just one. But if they would pay the difference....
