What's the best breast pump - Mom approved?

I am looking to register for a breast pump and have seen lots of optionals packages that comes with bottles, electric pumps, single pumps, double pumps. I am sure double pumps would work faster but what is everyone using - for those that are 2nd time plus moms?

Medela pump and style! Love it!! Its a double pump, it works faster cause you can do both at once.

I had the first years double electric and I hated it.  I borrowed my best friend's Medela pump in style and LOVED it!  It's awesome, but I never used both sides at once, so I think I'm going to buy a medela swing pump so I can give hers back since she's TTC.

I borrowed a Mendela Pump in Style Advance from a friend. It is a great pump- double electric. I would recommend either borrowing or renting one before you purchase one to make sure that everything works out. I ended up not producing enough milk to BF and only used the pump for a month- I would have definitely been upset if I had spent all that money on a pump and then not been able to use it that long.

I LOVED the Lansinoh Double Electric Pump.  It is much cheaper than the Medelas and actually has more features.  I exclusively pumped with it and never had a single issue.  I borrowed it from my SIL and she never had any issues either.  I know several other mothers that also loved it.

Medela hands down. It's very expensive and so worth every penny.

I second the recommendation to rent or borrow. You really wont know until after the baby comes if BFing and Pumping will even work for you. So I would not want to spend $300 on something I wouldn't use and can't return. I rented the Medela Symphany from the hospital. It is the hospital grade pump and was awesome. I will probably rent it again.
