General Question

IPads - Need your collective wisdom on what to consider?
I am an Android person and generally dislike Apple products.
However, for a work project, I need to acquire an iPad for testing and demonstrations. It will be fairly light use and only for work; my go-to tablet will still be my Android. I am comfortable getting a used, but comparatively recent iPad – but I don’t know what to get.
What are the earlier iPad models?
What sort of memory requirements should I be looking for?
Do all of them run the latest Apple operating system?
I don’t care about built in 3g or 4g – do they all have wi-fi support?
If I find a used one, what sort of things should I check to be sure that it’s in good shape? What usually breaks?
Any other advice is appreciated.
