Momcozy Air Electric Breast Pump ranks second at 12 of 12, the manual pumps from Lansinoh (15 of 20) and Medela (12 of 17) land in the middle, and Evenflo Advanced Double Electric Breast Pump ranks last at 9 of 16. **How do I clean breast pump parts?** Follow the maker's cleaning instructions for your pump, and let every part air-dry fully before you store it. This page reports what parents said about washing and putting parts back together, so the manual is the place to check how to clean and how often. **Who can answer pain or supply questions about pumping?** Follow the manual for your pump. For pain or supply questions, ask a lactation consultant or doctor. Cleaning reviews can't answer those. ## Method HiveTried counts first-hand reports only, drops reviews written for free products, shows brand-site reviews without counting them, and never accepts payment for placement.
