Hi
When I first tried my Bosom Beauty I thought it was broken. I would pump & pump and get no suction. I never developed breasts even during my pregnancy.
I had to keep adjusting domes to get suction. I purchased a runners tank top and I had to put it on first and then slip the domes under it. My domes liked when I placed them on the outside part of my chest or closer to the under arm area. I also guide my domes where the center is to align with the nipple. And after an hour of two of figuring it out whenever I moved I would loose the suction. The sound it makes is like you are passing gas. But I have mastered it already.
Don't Give Up.

If you think the machine is broken, unplug the tubes and turn the machine on full (SESL round to 4 o'clock position), 'suck' setting. Now put your fingers near the metal outlet where you attach the tubes - you should feel sucking from the left and middle and blowing from the right.
Does this work?

In my opinion, BB breaks down very easily. I'm not saying all BB machines are like that but a lot of them! If you have no experiences with fixing electronics (not the complicated one, like a VCR) then you will have problems! You either have to bring it to a local electronic store for repair or send it back to UK. Well, either options will cost you at least $50.
I was lucky that my boyfriend knows a little about electronics but to be honest, I can't even remember how many times I have to fix my BB. After a year and a half (i've only used it for 3 cycles), my BB finally quit working for me..lol.

I think similar to Brava the old BBs were better built. Mine was second hand (and she'd used it for 2x 8 weeks cycles) and I've used it 30 mins per day along with Brava for 10 weeks, alone for 2 hours per day for 16 weeks and now again with Brava for 1 hour per day for the last 8 weeks and still working fine. Does make a few funny noises and I did have trouble keeping suction when one of the domes cracked but you can replace the domes quite cheaply.
