This is an outstanding little pump. For the few dollars extra compared to other pumps you get a much higher quality porduct. Strong external case, excellent hose and attachments, compact size, and high volume pumping. It is a little loud but I would highly reccomend it!

FANTASTIC! Jun 22, 2011
By St Time Computer
"Chris Byrne"
I was looking for a pump to use at our home and lake home as there are many different things that require inflation. I just received my pump yesterday and was able to inflate 1 large and 2 medium fit-balls in under 5 minutes, from a flat state. I have a 10' lake lounger that this will probably fill in under 10 minutes.
Reviews posted a lot of critical feedback about noise. While the pump is loud, it is not loud for a pump that moves this much air. I was not irritated by the noise level while filling the fit balls. My cats were not fans, but I think most would use it outside. This pump makes half the noise of the Campbell-Hublfield 12v pump it is replacing.
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality construction of the pump housing, it feels very durable, and a nice toggle for power. The hose is a little flimsy but did not collapse, I would imagine over time it might. Attachments are connected to the hose so they are not so easily lost. I would like to see a more durable hose (hard rubber or braid-wrapped) and while the quick-connect is nice I would rather see the hose attach to a threaded connector.
I give it 5-stars either way it is a quality product,

 You need hearing protectors with this Sep 27, 2010
By Jeff in CA
I used it to deflate 4 plastic rafts for a swimming pool. It works, but the hose tends to collapse on itself. I was able to get the job done by cupping my hand around the section that was collapsing and by stretching the hose out full length.
I devised a way to fix the problem. I bought some lightweight compression springs from the hardware dept at Home Depot. These are Everbilt p/n 685200. I used the two 23/32" x 3 1/2" springs. I stretched them out so each one was about 10 to 12 inches long. Then I screwed them into the large end of the main hose. Because they tend to compress a little while doing this, I used a wire hook to pull one of the springs all the way to the end of the hose. Now the hoses are reinforced against collapsing, just like a radiator hose.
I haven't tested it for inflation. But the hose collapsing problem won't be an issue when it's used for inflation.
This pump is very loud. You must use hearing protectors with this pump. I used some cheap Silencio RBW-71 hearing protectors and they worked very well (sold by Amazon).

Does the Job Sep 21, 2011
By UBHappy
This air pump can move a lot of higher pressure air in a hurry. It is loud and gets warm when running for a few minutes. The pump is mostly plastic but It seem to be built reasonably well. Only time will tell how long it keeps on pumping.
