Breast Pumps: Hospital Grade vs. Electric

astarisborn

I posted this other places too, just wanted to be sure you knew!

I am a FTM so I was wondering if any STM's (or others that are knowledgeable in this area!) could offer some advice! I spoke with my insurance company and they cover my breast pump (along with replacement parts) 100% - either hospital grade, electric, or manual. I was wondering the difference between the hospital grade and electric ones - is the heaviness of the pump and the suction usually the main difference? I assumed that I would get an electric one (and probably still will) because of the portability. Thank you for any advice you have!!
