- These 2 silicone breast pumps are unique and very similar! Both are pulling out a little extra milk for you, but there are some key differences in the use and functionality of these two silicone breast pumps.

So thankful for this demonstration!! I was handed down both a haakaa and the curve and had no idea how the curve was used lol. Thank you!
The curve was great for me initially with engorgement as my supply regulated. However now that my breasts are softer, it pulls my nipple all the way to the back against the silicone preventing any let down on that side. I have tried varying levels of suction and it no longer works for me. It is essentially an expensive milk catcher now. I did love it initially though
Thank you for sharing
Yes! Love the hakaa for relieving engorgement, and preventing overactive letdown for nursing. Excited to use the Elvie curve this time around, and hoping for less accidents (spilling, falling off) with it in my bra.
I just received my Elvie Curve today and love it! Immediately collected 40oz during my first nursing session with it. I was previously struggling with the Haaka due to a wiggly baby knocking it off. Not a problem with the Elvie Curve! Highly recommended despite the cost. It is a little trickier to wash than the Haaka but was able to use a bottle brush.
Thank you!! I’ve been curious which one to get and really wanted the curve, but I didn’t know if it’s worth it! Definitely going to go for it! Thanks
Are you going to review the Elvie stride vs the regular Elvie pump? I’d love to hear more about the stride pump. One of my midwives just recommended it.
can you please do one one elvie curve versus the boon trove 🙏🙏🙏 I would also LOVE to see the suction strength comparison on your fancy suction tester machine 🤞
Hello!
Just bought the curve a couple days ago :) should be getting it in soon.
I love my hakaa. I’ve been able to start a stash from just using the hakaa while nursing. I’ve heard you mention “don’t over use it” in this video and another video (can’t remember which one)
Can you explain a little more about why not to use the hakaa so much?
Only in the beginning, after the first couple weeks when your milk supply is a bit more stable use it as much as you’d like! We just don’t want to cause any oversupply that’s difficult to deal with.
Have you used it while breastsleeping/side nursing?

Today years old when I found out about the Elvie Curve. And the Haakaa.
How does it compare to the haakaa as far as milk output? Does the haakaa give more output then the elvie curve?
I didn’t leak much at all with my first so it felt like the haaka was kind of pointless for me. I was however gifted a curve recently and am wondering if it might work better this time around or if different pregnancies lead to different amount of leaking/let downs?
Out of all the breast pump review you have done so far which one is your favorite?
Allison, have you ever tried the Kindest Cup? Curious to know if that's worth it.
I bought 2 (second hand) Elvie curves 2 days ago. They should arrive Friday and I’m super excited.
From what I hear the bottle top haakaa (correct me if I’m wrong) is also compatible with Comotomo parts!
Have you tried the Pumping Pod by Save the Milk?
Great video! Can you compare the Elvie Curve and the new Haaka ladybug please :)
There’s a video on the channel already for that one! They’re different kinds of things so they’re hard to compare :)
I’m confused, they are not manual breast pumps?
Correct, these will not empty the breast. Essentially just passively collect some easy milk at the front
Can you please review the boon trove pump vs the elvie curve pump? Love all your reviews! Thank you!
It looks very similar to the elvie curve in this video.. probably similar comparison points however the price is much closer to the haakaa! I think it would be worth a try
@@NewLittleLife thank you so much for your reply!! ❤️
Hi Allison,
I have been using Haaka ladybugs basically round the clock just to catch any leaked milk and am debating either buying the Catch to replace them…but could the Curve be worn instead and used to pump when I’m due and press a few times before swapping to my electric imanis? I’m an undersupplier and so can use anything I can capture…but if it seems like I could use the Curve instead of buying both Catch and Curve I’d be interested. Thanks for your reviews!
You could use the curve as simply a milk catcher with no Suction if you wanted. It’s bigger and bulkier if you’re wearing it a lot, you definitely don’t need to wear something with suction all the time, your breasts need rest time too. But if the size doesn’t matter to you, it could work!
Thank you!!! I may try that since I already have the ladybugs, which seam reasonably bulky already to me
With my first, I loved using the haakaa in the shower!
Does the Elvie have the same suction to where you can use it without a bra? Or does it have to kinda sit in the bra to hold that suction?
Do you think it would be okay to use in the shower ?? (I hope that’s not a weird question, haha)
I think you could! I do think the haakaa is better without a bra and probably has a little stronger suction in that case.
I agree here. The elvie curve does usually stick to your breast and holds the suction, but not always. It may fall off if you touch it accidentally or push your breast a little at some point. It holds way better in a bra. Got it already kicked off by my little one two or three times when not wearing a bra.
But inside a bra? Just great! Use it during every feed, even if a friend is visiting us!
@@vergisses7535 hmm seems like I should also get a haakaa for shower use and possible clogged milk ducts. Thank you!!
I thought I was the only one to use it in the shower 😅 Bought the Elvie curve for this time around, but still have the hakaas, so I appreciate you asking this question! At least no baby kicking it off in the shower, but it's definitely lost suction and fallen there. I comfort myself that if I hadn't been using the hakaa, the milk wouldn't have been collected anyway.
I wonder how the Elvie works with large saggy breasts. The Haakaa has worked for me because it can just hang on and pull the milk out, like it doesnt matter i dont have 20 yr old perky breasts and gravity has kicked in lol. Anyway i was wondering how the Elvie would work in that aspect.
She said the nipple is nowhere near the silicone but for me it literally suctions my nipple to the back of the silicone and blocks the opening. If I reduce the suction so that doesn’t happen, nothing really comes out. Let me know if you got it and have had better luck?
⬅️
I can’t ever get any milk out with the Elvie.
Me too! Its a complete waste of money to me. I really wanted to like it 😔
Some women don’t have a let down in the opposite breast while nursing
@@Bkrunz I get milk with the hakaa just not the Elvie curve. I’ve tried for a week and nothing.
Can you try increasing the suction a bit?
I don’t respond well to the curve either. I want to love it, but the haakaa works so much better! I easily can get .5-2 ounces from my regular side and .5-4 oz from my overachiever side with haakaa, but drops-.5 oz with curve and it’s uncomfortable!
