I just wanted to share my experience with Medela customer service... They really are an amazing company. I called and explained that my pump motor died after 6 1/2 months of use and the CS rep (Denise) was on it immediately! She asked me a few questions just to verify the motor was dead, then she said they'd replace my pump since they covered the motor under warranty for a year (even though the book that came with the pump said the warranty is for 90 days). I bought my pump from Best Buy Baby and for some reason they never mailed me a receipt with it, but she said that wasn't a problem, that she would take my word. She's getting the pump in the mail for me today and I will hopefully have it tomorrow, but it could take til Thurs at the latest, depending on the postal service... After I verify that the new pump works I am to mail the defective one back with a provided return label.

Medela handled this quickly and obviously care a great deal about their customers. I just wanted to make sure you all knew this since I mentioned having a Medela Pump In Style pump in my last thread and didn't want anyone to think negatively about them since my pump happened to burn out. It happens, it could've happened with any pump. I also know plenty of people who have had a PIS for years without issues, I just happened to get one that died (as is my luck, lol). I'm just glad they have great customer service and went above and beyond to help me out.

How cool is that! Good to keep in mind if my pump ever gives way. (My Medela is still pumping strong!)

I'm glad they gave such good customer service. I bet you will get more BM with the new pump. I have the same pump and bought it from the same company as you. I used it for a year and never had any problems. I think the PIS is an awesome pump.
