Comments about Medela Pump In Style® Advanced Metro Bag™:
I have found the pump to work great and be quite comfortable, given the adjustable levels. I find it convenient that the motor separates from the bag in this model. The biggest negative is that the bag for this model was larger than I expected so is quite a load to tote around when full. I will probably end up leaving the bag and motor (the heaviest component) at work and carry the items that need to be transported in a smaller bag. If I had to purchase again, I would probably try to find a more compact model.

Comments about Medela Pump In Style® Advanced Metro Bag™:
I started out renting a Medela Symphony (hospital grade), which was absolutely awesome. After 3 months I switched to a Pump In-Style from 2005, the 12-volt version, for my daily use pump at work, and I love it. I then bought the 2010 Pump In-Style Metro to keep at home so I wouldn't have to schlep another bag around every day.
I love the portability of the Metro pump, which is removable from the bag (unlike the 2005 version). I also like the size of the bag, as it fits more pump kits/tubing/storage bags/whatever. To be honest I love everything about the 2010 PIS Metro except the suction.
For me personally, the 9-volt does not have enough suction. I can barely pump 2oz total with the 9-volt motor, versus the 12-volt with which I usually get 4-6 oz (same time of day). I wish they still made the 12-volt motor, I would LOVE to get it in the Metro bag.
