Pros: portability, ease of use Cons: noise
I think the Medela Mini Electric Breastpump is great! I think it is perfect for a mom who works part-time, or who just wants a night out with her hubby. It is easily portable, easy to clean, and very lightweight. You could easily carry it in a purse...

Pros: amusing ad Cons: obviously conceived for "shock" value
Breast-feeding is NOT about sex! Breast-feeding is NOT obscene! Breast-feeding is NOT something you need to shield your children from! If you can't stand to have your kid be aware of the realities of mammalian life, you need to think about that. ...

Pros: helps position epinions as a tasteless brand Cons: required switching television to a different channel to avoid
This ad was tasteless, not interesting, inappropriate, and not something I want to see in my living room. I am really really really NOT interested in watching a woman suck milk out of her breast. The second time it was shown, I recognized it in the first...

Pros: I think breast pumps are wonderful and helpful gadgets Cons: I don't think it should be demonstrated on tv!!
I'm sure this is a good product, Lord knows a breast pump came in handy for me years ago, but does this commercial have to run on early prime time tv while my boys and their friends were watching tv??!!! I couldn't believe my eyes when it came on!!! Then...

Pros: shows ease of use of the product Cons: written in disturingly bad taste
There are no movie commercials in existence that don't feature a few scenes from the film. You don't make an ad for a dish soap without showing how well it washes dishes. Therefore, a commercial for a breast pump will, only naturally, show the pump in...

Pros: The epinion was good. Conveyed what epinions.com is all about. Cons: Inappropriate subject matter.
Specific points to consider in your review:
*Focus on the commercial not broader issues.
This is one of two guidelines epinions.com provided to anyone choosing to write a review on this commercial. In this case, I do not think this is a...

Pros: NONE Cons: Annoying, horrible, not very sensible, in bad taste
I just seen this commercial for the first time about 15 min ago on tv. and I must say, it was horrible to sit and watch. I am a mother of 5 children and breast fed two, I don't need to actually see someone using a breast pump to decide if I want to buy...

Pros: ---- Cons: Commercial - bad taste in my opinion
I just saw the commerical on prime-time television regarding the Medela Mini Electric "breast pump" advertising epinions.com and found it, in my opinion, unprofessional, embarrassing and appalling.
Please don't get the wrong idea...

Pros: Not sure Cons: Not sure
While reviewing all the Epinions television commercials, a thought suddenly occurred to me: have we, the Epinions members, been accidentally offered an unbalanced view in these four commercials? Think about it: reviews from three men and...

Pros: Shows how effective the Medela Pump is.... Cons: What was that web site she was talking about?
Man, that breast pump sure works well! I nearly filled a relief bottle myself just listening to it drone through the commercial and I haven't nursed in eight years!
Does this offend my sensibilities? Not at all.
Does it make me...

Pros: Featured a very taboo, but necessary product to review Cons: Done is poor taste. More for shock value than education the viewer about Epinion
When I saw the title of this commercial and what it was about, I was really excited. I am one the most PRO breastfeeding person that I know in my "real" life. I support breastfeeding well into the toddler and preschool ages, and I personally...

Pros: None Cons: Images of a woman "handling" herself may be construed as offensive by some people.
Although the product is a good one, I feel that endorsements of this type need to be shared only with a select audience.
Public television is deluged with tampon, jock itch, and feminine hygiene products. This commercial would add another...

Pros: Getting better, but not great. Cons: BUZZZZZZZZZ noise.
This ad was not quite as dumb or tasteless as the tent ad or the shooting gallery ad, which is not saying a whole lot. But at least they were moving in the right direction. The woman is not hard to look at, but still looks like a "regular"...

Pros: Grabs attention, word will get around Cons: Some may find it disturbing
Personally, I liked this commercial. First I was thinking "She's not really using that, is she??" Then, Lo and behold, I found out she was. To some people, watching this may be disturbing, while others just see it as natural. The addition of...

Pros: Helps us keep abreast of such items. Cons: Better not be a pepperoni pizza she ordered or the kid will be up all night.
This is something I would expect to find on FOX TV: a girl named Jen demonstrating the Medela Mini Electric Breast Pump. Woh yeah. "Best thing for my daughter," she says. Yeah, and apparently the cat, too.
I can just see it coming:...
