The Spectra 9 Plus comes with a complete double kit so you can double pump - pumping both breasts at once saves so much time, which, as a busy mum trying to find time to express, you will really appreciate. Double pumping also ramps up levels of prolactin (the milk-producing hormone) in your blood, so is better for supporting milk supply.

The Spectra 9 Plus has a nozzle for each milk collection kit, making it easy to swap from single to double pumping. Just attach a milk collection kit to both nozzles if you will be double pumping, or if you only want to single pump, you can just close off the second nozzle.

Letdown mode - switch to letdown mode with a touch, which is a light, quick mode designed to speed the start of milk flow, just the way a baby does. This will get you expressing faster and help your body get on board with the job of expressing milk.

Easy adjustment of suction strength and cycle speed together - touch button controls allow you to adjust suction strength and cycle speed with one touch. As you increase the suction, the speed will slow down [see the S2 if you want even more control over cycle program].

Inbuilt rechargeable battery - yes, we know you love this feature. Use your Spectra 9 Plus while plugged into mains, or just use it wherever you like from its inbuilt rechargeable battery.

LCD so you can easily see where you're at with vacuum and cycle settings. There's a battery indicator so you know how much charge you have left on the battery AND there's a timer so you can keep track of how long you've been expressing.

The Spectra 9 Plus is our most portable pump - lightweight and slimline, it will slip easily into your handbag.

Closed system - like all Spectra breast pumps, the Spectra 9 Plus has a closed system, which means that there is no way for milk to get into the pump motor. Milk particles in the pump motor can lead to the growth of mould and is a potential source of virus transmission.
