Which breast pump do you like best?

Hey new moms, 
I'm 15 weeks today! I just had a my maternity talk with my benefits specialist at work and she said that I can pick which breast pump I want and my insurance will reimburse me.  How did you pick? Which one do you like the best? Is there a particular one you'd recommend?  I'd like one that isn't too loud since I will be pumping at work. 
Thanks!

If you check out the breastfeeding board there are lots of posts about this. I have a medela pump in style and I like it. Parts are easy to come by and I like how it works.

What are your options? I recommend the Medela Pump In Style. I hated the Ameda Purely Yours. I have not used, but heard fantastic things about the Spectra.

Hated my pump in style. Ultimately bought a hospital grade medela. I've had friends who have loved their Spectra pumps and some who love their Lansinoh (spelling??)

I really like my Ameda Purely Yours. I find the parts way easier to clean than the hospital grade medela that I used in the hospital. The parts for it are easy to get on Amazon. I also like that it's a closed system unlike the Medela PISA that everyone seems to love. I have not tried the PISA though and I know a lot of people love it. Also the ameda came with a lot more stuff than the other pumps. The extra bottles are super helpful and it was nice getting different sized flanges.
