The Philips Avent Manual Breast Pump is a handheld device designed for comfortable and efficient breast milk expression. It allows mothers to manually control the suction and pace of pumping, mimicking a baby's natural sucking rhythm. It typically features a soft, massaging cushion on the breast shield to stimulate milk flow and promote comfort. The pump is lightweight, portable, and easy to assemble, making it suitable for on-the-go use or occasional pumping needs. It's also designed with fewer parts for easy cleaning and sterilization. Many models come with a bottle for direct milk collection and feeding.
