I used the medela pump in style and now I'm using the spectra s2 which is a hospital grade pump. The spectra s2 is a little less expensive than the medela but the reviews are neck and neck If not a little better than the medela

Medela freestyle and manual is harder and more time consuming. Medela electric can be around 400$

Waiting for, I can rent a breast pump from the hospital butbu have to purchase the tubes.  I did that with my first baby I rented the medela double electric pump.  I actually didn't like using it cuz the tubes were so hard to get clean and I was worried about bacteria and mold growing in them.  A friend of mine, got me the avent manual breast pump and to my surprise, I really loved using it.  It was easy to take apart and clean and it pumped milk very quickly.  I have an electric to use again, but will have the avent manual as a back up.  I def recommend the manual since ur insurance only covers it, but renting from the hospital is also another option..
