The Swing's compact size makes it easy to pump wherever you are. View larger. | Convenient and Leak Proof
The Pump and Save bags are specially designed to securely store breast milk. They feature a quick cleaning, leak-proof zipper top for easy open and close as well as to keep milk safely contained. In addition, the no-spill, stand-up bottom lets you rest the filled bag on a countertop while recording the name, date and time in the convenient labeling area. And once in the refrigerator or freezer, these bags line up and stay in place for effortless, space-saving storage. Safe and Sanitary Storage
Because it's so important that everything in contact with baby be clean, sanitary and chemical free, the Pump and Save bags are made to be safe for the collection, storage and feeding of breast milk. Each bag is double-walled to remain fresh during long-term storage, and all parts that come in contact with breast milk are 100-percent BPA/DEHP free. Made of special plastic, these bags also retain breast milk's beneficial properties so every feeding truly nourishes your growing child. Easy to Use
When it's time to store milk or feed baby, Medela knows you don't have extra time to struggle with complicated procedures. That's why the Pump and Save Bags are made to be easy to set up and move to the refrigerator or freezer. For optimum convenience, the exclusive self-stick strap attaches directly to the breast shield for fast and easy set-up without any struggling with special attachments. Then you're ready to pump directly into the bag. Once you begin, clear markers tell you when you reach the 150 millimeter mark, which helps ensure that milk, which expands as it freezes, won't cause a mess once stored. About Medela

 lost milk and milk volume measurement inaccurate July 27, 2010
L (Los Angeles)
My milk leaks from these quite frequently. the zip lock is difficult to seal correctly for some reason. even if you cinch it tightly between your fingers and slide across to seal a few times, it feels sealed even when not. so they are kinda tricky. it would be nice if there was a color change when they are properly sealed, like some food storage bags.
The volume of pumped milk in the bag is actually less than what it looks like. I've noted this after pouring milk into several types of bottles including the medela bottles that came with the pump
 Hard to seal, too small, and inaccurate measuring July 22, 2010
R. Maxim (Maryland, USA)
These bags are nice in concept but fail in reality. Yes, you can pump into them, but the top will basically be open so unless you're really careful, they are easy to spill. I now just pump into bottles and pour the bottles into the bags.
The zip-top seal is very hard to close tight, you'll think it's sealed but it's not, or else it pops open after you close it. I've had multiple spills and leaks because of this.
If you fill the bag to the 5oz line at the top, when you freeze it the contents will expand and open the top.
Also, the measurement lines on the bag are not accurate at all unless you fill the bag - in which case you don't need them. The first several times I pumped, I thought I was getting a lot more than I was...imagine my frustration when I poured the bags into a bottle and discovered I only had about 2/3 of what I thought I did.
I'm going to try the Lansinoh ones next...these are not worth the price.
Medela Milk Storage Bag July 16, 2010
H. Wu (San Francisco, CA USA)
This bag is ok to use. But it is kind of pricy and you do have to be very careful when zipping the bag. Otherwise, the bag will leak.
Wastes precious breastmilk June 21, 2010
Liv (Houston, TX United States)
Fits the pump conveniently, but I have lost so much precious breast milk due to leaky bags. It seems when they are frozen and then defrosted, the bottom of the bag comes unglued. Also, the ziplock does not seal very well. I will never buy this product again.
 Worth the money June 13, 2010
Dotty (Philadelphia, PA)
Although wasteful to be using so much plastic, these bags are very convenient to pump into while at work. Unfilled they take up almost no space, and I can easily fit 6 very full bags plus two ice packs in my Medela cooler. Other reviewers seem to have problems with the bags not sealing properly. This happened to me only once. Since then I have double checked the zipper seal after locking it, and then I turn the bag upside down to check for spillage. I haven't had a problem since.
