Is this the best pump for establishing supply and exclusive pumping?

After a lot of research I decided on this over the Medela and am glad I did. I exclusively pump and love the spectra. I can't think of one thing I dislike about it and in fact I also recently bought the spectra M1 for travel and for when I am out at someone's house. If you have any other questions feel free to email me at lovenest@live.ca

Absolutely. I'm an exclusive pumping mom with an 8-month-old son, and it has been wonderful.

I do not agree with this statement, I have purchased one of this and it's been working properly since day one. Please note that this is an "emergency" pump intended to be used when you're replacing the tire, it is not meant to be your main pump.

we have several of these pumps and although it is possible to draw some oil from a system during any 400 to 600 micron system we consider this the best pump we have used. The pump has oil, the system has oil so oil can be an issue. I suggest you review your hookup and operational process before going further. Also the longer the hoses the more oil can be extracted from the system during evacuation. Lesser CFM pumps never pull hard enough to be problematic. We never use more than a 7 cfm model because of this situation. You could have a problem. We suggest you speak with a Yellow Jacket factory rep. we have several of these pumps and although it is possible to draw some oil from a system during any 400 to 600 micron system we consider this the best pump we have used.

I've only used the Eheim Compact 3000 as an internal pump, but based on my experience with the 3000 (see my review), I'd recommend you find another pump.

It's a manual pump (10 pumps max). That big oval hole in the stock makes a great place to grab when pumping. Better leverage = easier to pump.

In my opinion it is not too loud, of course it sounds like any electric pump but in a normal volume. I've tried medella swing and Avent and by far Spectra is the Best pump... Just in 5 to 10 minutes I get 5 ounces from one breast.

The pump worked flawlessly. Would expect it to perform similarly in your application.

This may be better answered by the supplier, however this is the pump I received. Hated it. Spend your money on an electric one if you can. This thing did nothing.

Best customer service, best warranty, best tech support. They will address any concerns you may have with an immediate personel responce. They will help you determine their product for your needs. In my opinion a variable sppeed pump will save you a ton on electrical bills.

None of them!! It was designed for a container manufactured overseas (like the unit) and the threads are not compatible. On the plus side, the pump is fully submersible, and the best containers we found are the Aqua Tainer 7Gal (dark blue cube), it has a wide enough mouth that the whole pump drops right in with the hose, cable, etc.

I use this pump on my Intex pool and have been using the vacuum that came with the pool. It works really well because the filter system has such great suction. I would think most systems would work equally as well.

Honestly its not the best pump. It is low suction so it might work for you but the pump dies within a year. I've gone through 2.

No. it actually works better the higher it is because it pulls better than it pushes. Moving it to the high point of the pumping cycle takes full advantage of its suction strength.

I also have a Reynolds pump and so far they have not been compatible. I have found that the small Ziplock hand pump works great and is easy to use. I also like the Ziplock bags better

The simple answer is yes. I think you will find this pump will suit your needs quite well.

I believe that there are better alternatives for your particular application. This is a great pump for a permanent sump based installation, but it is heavy, does not operate until the water level is 4" deep, and is rather large. There are portable pumps that are made specifically for your requirements. I would consider the Wayne VIP50 (available at amazon) as a better alternative.
