Question milking machine

ACK..It is driving me crazy. What is the name of the milking machine that you can milk directly into the milk bottles. I can not info the thread I last talked about it to save my life and Google has not been helpful in finding any info on any thing I need in the last few days.

We got one from Dansha Farms - it's the battery operated one with the pump that goes directly into the jar. There's a hand operated one called EZ milker I think

I have never herd of this one before, but it is interesting. Has it worked well for you? How many goats do you milk?

We milk five goats. We decided to buy two machines so we'd have a backup. One machine has worked well from day #1 without giving us any problems but the backup has been replaced 3 times and we haven't been able to get another one that works. We finally just gave up. We won't buy from them again.
