Pros: promoting breastfeeding Cons: none
There's nothing offensive here. Breastfeeding is a natural process that should be supported for all mothers & babies. I'd much rather see this than a formula company ad - or another baby bottle commercial claiming to be "most like mother...

Pros: Shows the function of the pump Cons: Some viewers may not like it.
I can say that this is a very bold step to take when it comes to advertising breast pumps. Medela (the brand of the breast pump) has the guts to do it. I mean how often do you see ads that make bold statements.
In order to sell the pump, they...

Pros: shows how great medela is, but I wouldn't want to log on because I already knew that Cons: make this a demonstration of how much better it is than other brands and you may have something, that would make me logon to epinions
Now that would be a breast pump commercial I'd want to watch. That would be a commercial that would want to make go online and see what epinions is all about.
This ad makes me think epinions has something to hide and they have to use hype and...

Pros: Got everyone's attention! Cons: Made everyone disgusted!
I truly resent and am disgusted over Eopinions running the TV commercial for the breast pump. I myself breast fed and utilized a breast pump. I don't feel that advertising the breast pump is wrong, but the manner in which it was done was out of taste....

Pros: showed the proper way to use the reviewed item, makes a good instructional video Cons: it was too blatant, the scene with the cat sickened me, I didn't think it was appropriate for prime-time TV
I never really liked milk to begin with, so now that I've decided to stop drinking it completely after seeing this commercial aired last night, I suppose I won't be missing much. This was certainly an eye-opening commercial, I will give it that; but it...

Pros: It reaches your target audience Cons: The rest of the public is kind of disgusted by it.
I must begin by stating that I am not a prude, I am not religious, nor am I conservative or uptight in any way. And that is why I think you should give weight to my opinion about this commercial. It is a real turn off! I don't think that it will get...

Pros: Excellent product manufacturer (Medela) Cons: "feeling like a cow"????
Formula is an 8 BILLION dollar a year industry that is responsible for causing illness and death in thousands of babies each year. I was SO glad to see a Medela (muh DEE luh) product ad! Finally someone gets it! Thousands of women pump milk and...

Pros: Beautiful Cons: Why did it take so long?
All I can say is HOORAY for all the breastfeeding moms out there!! It's about time they get the recognition they so deserve. As a soon to be breastfeeding mom myself, this is truly a breakthrough in the stigmatism that surrounds breastfeeding. The...

Pros: Promotes a healthy choice Cons: none
It's OK to see men's nipples, as they are not connected to round mounds of flesh. We can see the butts of all the men on NYPD Blue, some of which are just round mounds of flesh. But, we can't see a woman demonstrating a breast pump? There is much...

Pros: Attention-getting Cons: Just plain gross
Although I applaud mothers who breastfeed their children, I thought the commercial was in poor taste. It seemed to rely much more on "gross out" factor than actual facts. The kitty and pizzaman appearances were way over the top, and took away...

Pros: Real-life-like, natural, funny, attention-grabbing Cons: None
Bravo to the creator. Viewing this commercial drove me straight to my computer to see what Epinions.com was all about!
The commercial depicts an every day, woman-next-door, pumping her breasts. How natural! Perhaps she is a working mom,...

Pros: None Really Cons: Could do without a demonstration!
I have read several reviews on the commercial for epinions with the woman demonstrating the breast pump. Finally curiosity got the best of me and I had to go see for myself what all the hype was about.
Unlike several of the review's I have...

Pros: Memorable and interesting Cons: An unrepresentative reflection of Epinions
…But seriously folks, is this going to sell Epinions? Will this ad bring people to the site?
Wait a minute…let’s take this a step further:
Epinions like most other Internet start-ups was founded on Venture capital. Millions of dollars of...

Pros: Concise, understandable, different Cons: A little too earthy
And so does anything freaky, deaky or odd. I have mixed feelings about this commercial, mostly because I've been there, and it brings back horrifying breast pump memories, but I think it does a great job of catching and keeping the attention, and the...

Pros: Good for a laugh Cons: sound quality terrible
Right now I am sitting here laughing my butt off.........
There is just something very rude about watching a women pumping her breast for milk and talking about milking a cow. The sounds of vibrating and hearing her laughing made this commercial...
