Any point in keeping my breast pump at 11 months

I'm breastfeeding my 11mo. Haven't had to use a breast pump for a couple of months as have only needed to leave him for a few hours here and there. Go back to work when he's 13 months old so don't plan to leave him breastmilk during the day. Dh and I are having an overnight when he's 12 months but I have a manual breast pump to relieve any soreness when we're away.
I'm doing a bit of a baby clear out and selling or giving things away. I have a great electric double pump but can't envision using it again. Is it worth keeping until I've completely stopped feeding?

In your shoes I'd be happy to sell the electric pump and keep the manual pump as back up (just in case of soreness/blockages).

I think the main question for me would be whether you're planning to have any more babies - no point getting rid of something if you'll only need to buy it again! I'm assuming you've probably considered this point, though...

We already have 2 and definitely no plans to have anymore!
