Some insurance plans cover renting a pump (generally not buying one) for a certain amount of time. For instance, my insurance covers a pump for the first 2 months postpartum. It kind of sucks really, because if I was working, I'd really just need the pump AFTER the first 2 months, not during. But it's definitely worth a call, its saving us $120.

Depending on your insurance breast pumps should be covered. You should call and check it out. I know I'm going to Monday

I rented a pump from the hospital for 3 months. The pump was very clean, but that part doesn't usually get dirty. When I rented the pump they let me know I needed to buy the pump kit that went with it. Those parts (tubing, bottle adapter, etc) are not reused.
I rented the Medela Symphony and it was fantastic. I'd been given a Medela Pump-In-Style Advanced, and it was just ok. I could DEFINITELY tell the difference between the two. If I use a pump again I will be renting the Symphony.
