Breast pump? Free style?please help!

Im wanting to know the difference between the free style medaia pump and the instyle pump? which is better? With my first baby I bought a cheap pump from Walmart. Huge mistake! I'm wanting to breast feed at least for the first year so I want the best pump you can buy well at least for 300$ please help!

I've had both the freestyle and the pump in style advanced. I like that the freestyle I can carry it in the diaper bag and I don't have to plug it in. You just recharge it when it dies. But I also really liked the in style as well.

As for manual, I have the Medela manual pump and I express more with my freestyle.

I asked this question somewhat recently and was told they are equally good just one might be more comfortable for you.  I also heard with manual pumps you are able to express more milk and are much more comfortable.  I'm not sure at this point as the last time I tried it was automatic and it was unbearable.  We purchased a manual one today. I'll be sharing those reviews ASAP!
