In my personal experience, the Wifi Kobo is a much better reader, in terms of Battery life. I'm not having the Battery problems that you seem to be having.
What I do is Reset the Kobo to Factory default without being plugged into USB. After the reset the Kobo should update itself to 1.7.1 if you already upgraded. Plug the Kobo in and leave it to charge. Don't click either the "Keep Reading" or "Manage Library". Just stay at that screen until your light changes to Blue. Sync your reader and keep track of your battery life. If it is still very short then go ahead and exchange.
If you think your going to be unhappy with another Kobo Wifi you should be able to "downgrade" to a Kobo. I would ask first before though, just to make sure.
