Received one of these today:

Pros- very cheap and it puts out a great deal of pressure very quickly, much faster tha a hand or foot pump. Inlfates to adequate pressure without needing an extra pump

Cons- no hose supplied. I just held the outlet against the valve on my Avon which worked fine but obviously a lot of the air escapes. Once I get a suitbale hose worked out I'm sure it'll be all good.

So, pretty pleased with my purchase so far!

Doesn't one of the adaptors fit into the original Avon hose ? Mine did - in fact I could pull of the hose from pump and put back to the 1/2 turn fitting for use of foot pump if needed. The later vertical dual action job - hose is exact fit for electric and hand pump.... simple push on fit.

A bit expensive! The £4.99 job from Aldi coupled with the hose from the similarly priced double action manual pump does the job - though this year it seems to prefer the valve opened (slight loss of air on removal) and as always needs a top-up to brick hardness with the hand pump.

Second the Aldi pump, it does draw a lot of juice though at around 10 amps. Make sure your wiring is up to it.
