For new moms, balancing the demands of parenthood with other responsibilities can be a challenge. But the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump is designed with the modern mom in mind. Finally, a breast pump that is extremely portable, comfortable, and hands-free, allowing me to pump on the go, without sacrificing efficiency.
As a mom who has tried various breast pumps, I was excited to put the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump to the test and share my experience. Overall, the M5 is my go-to breast pump, especially since my milk production was just as much, if not more, than my other full-sized breast pumps, due in part I think to the unique vibration feature and cup design.

Hands-On Review
I love how I can just stick it in my bra and go! This gives me so much flexibility whether I am at work or at home helping one of my kiddos. Putting the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump together was easy, I loved how easy it is to read and love the user friendly settings. Plus, each time I turn it on my settings are pre-set and I don’t have to reconfigure it.
The different suction levels and modes allowed me to configure it to my comfort level: a level 3 was strong enough but not painful. I absolutely love the vibration feature and couldn’t believe when I had an output of 3 ounces of milk on each side!
Safety and Sturdiness: 9/10
The Momcozy M5 Breast Pump is made from BPA-free, food-grade silicone and is designed to stay securely in place. While it’s generally stable, it’s important to ensure it’s properly positioned to avoid mishaps. Plus, I recommend being careful with the containers when they are full of milk as they can be a little tippy and spill if you aren’t careful.
Ease of Use: 9/10
The hands-free design of the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump means you aren’t tied down. It is incredibly easy to use, even when you are multi-tasking or helping your little ones. You can slip it into your bra and go about your day without having to hold or manage the pump.
The controls on each of the cups are intuitive, with simple buttons to adjust settings. It is not as easy to accidentally change the settings like on some other breast pumps. Plus the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump preserves your settings, so it doesn’t have to be reconfigured each time you turn it on.
The Momcozy M5 breast pump comes with cups that attach to the suction motor, which means there are no cords or tubing in the way. Plus, minimal parts means the M5 is easier to clean than most breast pumps.
Sadly, the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump does not have a timer to track how long you have been pumping. Also, the motor sits on top of the cups and covers them up, making it a little harder to check peek at how much milk there is when I am pumping.
Durability and Quality: 8/10
We found the build quality of the Momcozy M5 to be very good for its price range, with excellent suction power (280-300 mm mercury suction power and 9 different suction levels). Although it isn’t intended to be dropped, we have found it can take a little beating and still works great 🙂
The Momcozy M5 battery lasts about 120 minutes, roughly 6 pumping sessions at 20 minutes each. It also takes about 2 hours to fully recharge the battery, and the charger is a USB-C charger.
Comfort: 9/10
I have found the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump reduces discomfort while pumping due to the soft silicone flange and the shape of the nipple, which is designed to reflect a babies natural sucking (at a more horizontal angle). There are also 3 different modes and 9 adjustable suction levels, allowing you to find the right level for your needs.
The Momcozy M5 Breast Pump is more comfortable with its DoubleFit flange (double-sealed), ergonomic breast arc design, and the structure of the cups. This painless lactation increases both comfort and milk flow. Plus, the M5 has a vibration feature while you pump which helps stimulate and improve milk expression.
Weight and Bulkiness: 10/10
The compact and lightweight design makes the Momcozy M5 easy to carry in the included carry case or use discreetly. It is designed for portability and convenience, with a lightweight design of 0.5 lbs (230 g) and a dimension of 2 x 3 x 3 inches. You can move freely while pumping, as the cups can tuck into your bra.
***We do recommend a wireless, full coverage bra made from stretchy fabric.
Flexibility: 8/10
The Momcozy M5 Breast Pump includes a nipple measuring tool and 4 different flange sizes to ensure a good fit for different breast shapes: 17mm, 19mm, 21mm, and 24mm. The customizable settings include 9 suction levels and 3 different modes (suction length and speed): Stimulation, Expression, Mixed. Plus, it always starts at your preferred setting for efficient pumping!
Design: 9/10
We love the hands-free, no tubing design of the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump, which make it discreet enough to use in public. It is a little tricky to make sure I am producing or to check the levels of my milk when I am pumping, but luckily the containers hold 5.4 oz of milk.
The Momcozy M5 Breast Pump has a stylish and compact design, with 4 colors to choose from: Quill Gray, Mint, Lilac, and Cozy Red. I love the portable storage bag that it came with! It was easy to take with me when needed, making breastfeeding easier on the go.
Competitors and alternatives to the Momcozy M5 Breast Pump include the Momcozy V2, Willow Go, or Spectra Breast Pump.
Price 7/10
The Momcozy M5 Breast Pump is competitively priced for a hands-free breast pump, offering good value for the features it provides. While not the cheapest option, it offers a solid balance of quality and affordability.
