Pros: NONE NONE NONE NONE
Cons: everything from the point where she put it on her breast to the Epinions ad at the end!
Summary: It took me several weeks to get my RealPlayer working and I finally saw the ad for the first time today.
I sat in front of my screen, mouth agape and simply uttered a pathetic "gee whiz!"...to which my four year old asked me, ... read more

Pros: every nursing woman needs one
Cons: Too much info!
Summary: while I agree that the promise of ease of use is a good thing, but did we have to see the gawking pizza delivery guy? I think testimonials from users of the product is also a good thing, but to graphically display use of the system left me with the ... read more

Pros: Great Details on a Breast Pump
Cons: Poor Poor advertising
Summary: I watched this commercial after reading a friends epinion on it. I thought that it was hilarious. Not that the woman was doing an epinion on a breast pump but at the quality of the commercial. How terrible. I seriously do not believe that after seeing ... read more

Pros: None.
Cons: Read the review.
Summary: This was the wrong product to use the "deadpan" approach for. There was nothing funny, witty, or interesting about this commercial. In addition, this is a commercial that most people are just going to flick the channel once they see. This is ... read more

Pros: Draws attention
Cons: Not the "right" kind of attention!
Summary: Skeeved me. I could just smell the "hey, this will draw attention!" that must have gone on before selecting this as a contender. No, siree, this one's just too obviously a ploy to be controversial.
I wasn't offended by the act-- I ... read more

Pros: Originality
Cons: Bad idea
Summary: Maybe epinions wanted to do something to generate interest. Nothing generates interest like controversy. I am assuming that is the case with the breast pump commercial. Epinions should have known that these commercials would not play well in middle ... read more

Pros: uhh? Let me think about this one... ok none!
Cons: Boring, Bad Taste
Summary: I've been reading the epinions of other members on this commercial, so I decided to go watch it myself. Now I wish that I hadn't.
What in the world is this supposed to tell other people about Epinions? this woman didn't make me want to ... read more

Pros: Ridiculous
Cons: Even More Ridiculous
Summary: This ad is ridiculous! How many people would actually hand a breast pump filled with milk to a pizza deliveryman while she gathers the money owed? I had to laugh at this ad; I don’t see where this ad would bring more people to Epinions. I feel that ... read more

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
Summary: 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 ... read more

Pros: Got everyone's attention!
Cons: Made everyone disgusted!
Summary: 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. ... read more

Pros: It reaches your target audience
Cons: The rest of the public is kind of disgusted by it.
Summary: 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 ... read more

Pros: Attention-getting
Cons: Just plain gross
Summary: 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 ... read more

Pros: explains in detail about the breast pump
Cons: noisy pump, cat drinks breastmilk, pizza delivery guy holds the pump?
Summary: This must be a test to see if Epinions reviewers are on the ball. They cannot possibly be serious about airing this commercial!
There is one good thing about the commercial: the woman explains about using the pump in a detailed, personal way, ... read more

Pros: uhh..
Cons: read on..
Summary: Now, I have nothing against a breast pump being reviewed on TV,in fact it could be an eye opening experience. My problem is that it was portrayed in a very unclean light. Yes,her breast was covered,but I'm not talking about that,this woman managed to do ... read more

Pros: Made me want to check out Epinion.com
Cons: Also made me want to lose my dinner.
Summary: This is the second Epinion commercial I've seen, the first being the snowboarder which I thoroughly enjoyed. To be frank, I found the breast-pump commercial appalling. As a woman in her child-bearing years I can say yes, this is a necessary product. Yes, ... read more

Pros: None
Cons: This does not Belong on Television
Summary: This was the dumbest idea that I have heard of.
First of all if a woman needs to know how to operate a breast pump or anything about breast feeding, she should not have to learn it from the television .
I don't know who at epinions com let this ... read more

Pros: good product
Cons: not needed on TV
Summary: Maybe I'm too young, or maybe it's the fact my mother didn't talk about "womenly" issues in front of men, but I find this add disturbing. Personally, (and I mean just me personally) I find this more disturbing than the iMac ad. As an adult, I ... read more

Pros: Nothing
Cons: Too narrow of a target viewer base, too trendy

Pros: Thoughtful review
Cons: lacked taste for all audiences
Summary: Absolutely not! I do not believe that there should be any kind of even suggestive material going on the T.V. about Epinions. I realize that as a teacher of small children who do watch T.V, I am concerned about their welfare. Some might joke about it and ... read more
