Manual or Electric breast pump?

The headline basically said it all!

I will be breastfeeding when the baby gets here and I am struggling weather to get manual or Electric breast pump as I am not keen on baby feeding off me as my nipples are very sensitive but I want to do the best for the baby so the baby will feed off me as well.

So which one do you prefer and why?

Double electric breast pump with hands free bra from Medela. More out as pumping both at once, which you couldn’t do with a manual although I suppose you could put a Hakka on the one you are not pumping and swap. Also the one I have , because of the hands free bra, I can put it in the mains but then pull it off the plug and hold the machine with one hand ( in theory it could probably clip onto jeans or something too but I’ve mainly been wearing dresses) and use my other hand to adjust my DD on her play mat or similar if I need to.
