Would you use a second hand electric pump?

it's been really hard for me to pump using the manual one...and i was lucky that i got one for my baby shower and 1 at the hospital bc one of them totally lost the suction...so i am asking you moms that breastfeed, would you buy a used pump from someone you dont know? i have to pump at least 4 times a week, and sometimes during the day so my husband can have enough for our 4 month old son. i work nights so i have to get home and slave over the manual pump for a good 20 minutes. are the electric faster?

just help?

    I used a second hand pump with my son. It was from a really close friend. All you have to do is clean it. Put it in the dish washer. Well the washable parts that is. And yes an electric pump is a lot better than a manual one. And a lot faster!!

    Yes of course. What do you think they do in hospital? just sterilise it all first.
