Medela Breast Milk Storage Solution Set
An organized Medela storage kit for pump users, though not every piece gets used.
We bought Medela Breastfeeding Gift Set - Complete Breast Milk Storage System. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. It is Medela's own breast milk storage bundle with bottles, bags and organizer, and its contents can be confirmed on several retailer pages.
The short version
- Parents pumping with a Medela pump who want a matched storage kit
- Anyone who likes a first in, first out system for stored milk
- A shower gift for someone planning to pump
- You plan to store mostly in bags, which Medela itself describes as the more space saving option
- You already own bottles and containers that fit your pump
- You use a pump from another brand and the bottles may not attach
What owners like
- Keeps stored milk organized, which first time parents find helpful
- Everything fits Medela pumps, so there is no need to match parts from other brands
Common complaints
- Some find the tray unnecessary, since any fridge container can do the same job
- Several parents did not use every piece and would rather buy only the parts they need

What it does
A Medela set of storage bottles, small containers, labeling lids, storage bags and an in and out tray for organizing pumped breast milk; reviewed here in place of the Medela Breastfeeding Gift Set it resembles.
- Labeling lids can be turned to mark the day, to help track which bottle to use next
- Tray has IN and OUT sides, so newer milk goes in the back and older milk comes out first
- Bottles and bags are listed as compatible with Medela breast pumps
- Mix of bottles, small containers and bags covers both fridge and freezer storage
- Magnet lists storage guidelines for the fridge door
A tidy starter kit for parents pumping with a Medela pump who want bottles, bags and a fridge tray that all fit together. The trade-off is that the tray and labeling lids are conveniences, and some parents find plain containers and bags bought separately do the same job for less.
