Great looking and works perfectly!

No problems as of yet and very conveniently designed with the needle attached to its side

Nice pump. It feels a little rickety at first, particularly when it's fully extended, but fills/tops off balls quickly and easily. We bought a digital pressure gauge with a bleed button, so we just overinflate slightly, pop in the gauge, and let air out until it's right where we want it.

Buy two, because the first one will 'walk away'-especially if it's in the team gear bag :)

First I thought it was a double ACTION pump, it isn't, but was my mistake, the ad states double BARREL pump, which really works as well, it is a very stylish, sturdy, compact & efficient air pump. Now everyone in my rugby team want one.

Someone else took my subject when they wrote that this pump is "perfect." It is. It's small and durable, and does a great job topping off flat balls. I love that you attach your needle to a fabric-shrouded detachable tube--and that whole apparatus snaps into a convenient location on the pump itself. No loose parts to lose. And the double-pump action makes it much speedier than your typical hand-pump. I highly recommend this, so easy to carry around in any kit-bag. Great for me, as my kit usually has three or four different balls for my kids to play around with, each in different states of inflation.

Bought this product because I needed some sort of protection against broken needles. This pump has a latch on the outside which protects it to a certain extent, but probably won't protect it from a hard hit. That being said, it's better than nothing. The real issue is that this thing is REALLY big. That grey plastic, which I figured was a cover that came off, is actually part of the pump. It kind of looks like a light saber, too.

I would like to first state the only main reason for my purchase of this air pump was for my light weight mountain bike. I am please with it totally. I like the way the air line cord fits securely with in the built in holder of the pump it self. I tested it along with a few of my friends with mountain bikes and they too have ordered this pump. The only draw back it doesn't come with a bracket to mount it on too any bike. I will try a local bike store or write the company to make a bracket to hold the pump so it can be mounted on the bike while riding. I personally ride with a very small back pack (that I purchase as Walmart) that is just big enough that will hold my pump, repair kit, and an extra inner tube just in case of a total blow out. Please don't ever buy a bike pump that does not screw on to the stem of the inner tube if your inner tube is made like such. Those pumps that you just push on and pull the lock down on it those kinds will recoil and pop off when trying to add air. I like the old school way and it's the best way to me personally.

Does everything it is supposed to and does it very well only thing is it is loud and I am start to doubt it's durability hasnt failed yet but the fact that it is so loud make be believe it is going to fall apart hope I am wrong
