Must have for inflatable yak or sup
I use this in combination with a powered inflator. Effectively top off the final 1 psi to my inflatable yak

Good but not great
I bought a returned item that was labeled as "like-new" condition. I would say that was an accurate description of the item. Plus it saved me about 35% off the price of new which I very much liked. So I'm very happy with buying a "used" item.As for the pump itself, it works good but not great. I agree with the other commenters that the hose isn't very flexible which can cause the pump to disconnect from the kayak when using. That is the primary reason I give it only 4 stars. It is possible to hold the hose with one hand and pump with the other as the pump moves very easily. My kayak is only 3 psi so its not like trying to pump a bicycle tire to 100 psi, however, if you have a high psi yak or SUP I'm not sure if it would be as easy. So it works for my situation and I'm pleased with my purchase but improvements could be made.

One size doesn't fit all
For $40 you'd think this thing wouldn't have any flaws, given that it's comprised of several pieces of molded plastic. The pump itself is fine. The real issue is the hose and how it connects to the pump and the inflatable. The threading connecting the hose to the pump don't fit one-to-one, which you'll notice every time you try to connect them. They fit FINE, I suppose. The worst aspect is connecting the valve adapter(s) to the hose because both are made of hard plastic. There is nothing that makes the adapter want to stay connected to the house while you're pumping because there is no friction holding the adapter in place. I'm going to try duct taping them together because the only other thing you could possibly do is hold the two together by hand while pumping. How did this product go through phases of design and approval without anyone saying "should these pieces maybe stay together while the user is operating the pump?" Waste of money.

Works well, i just wish the hose part was a bit more flexible and less "plasticky"

What a pain in the....
The tube that connects to the pump and the endpoint, is fixed. Plastic 2 threads that hold it the pump. What does that mean? No flexibility so the air tube ALWAYS disconnects from the item you are inflating. It is like a puzzle on where you need to stand to get this darn air tube stay put. I hate this thing and want to smash it every time i see it.

works better than expected, although hose end is fragile
My employer has a recognition program which awards points for jobs well-done. A month or so ago, I used some points to order an inflatable kayak which came with this hand pump. I also had a cordless inflator made by a well-known yellow-and-black-products company, so I used that to inflate my kayak. It took a long time. Last time I was inflating my kayak with that cordless inflator, I thought, "Let me try the hand pump on another chamber, just to see what kind of job it does." WOW. It inflated the floor faster than I ever expected. I moved the cordless inflator to the second side and finished the first side with the hand pump and it was super-fast. And a plus was that -- unlike my guess-at-the-pressure approach with the cordless inflator -- I could see the pressure of the chamber with each stroke of the pump, so I was able to stop at the right pressure (which was a lot firmer than I'd been going before because I was afraid of overinflating the boat). I make up that -- while fast and automated -- that cordless inflator has a very tiny air chamber and this hand pump has a comparatively huge air chamber and since this is a low-pressure operation, more air per stroke (at low pressure) is the key."Why only 4 stars?", you ask. Great question. The first time I brought the hand pump as backup, I didn't use it. (I just used the cordless inflator.) When I went paddling, I just tossed the pump and hose in the trunk. When I came back, I tossed my boat and gear into the trunk. Well, I must've accidentally put something heavy on the threaded part of the hand pump's hose because it broke and was shaped like an oval, not a circle. The plastic was cracked and no amount of squeezing could bring it back to a circle. I went to a home-improvement store with the pump and hose, hoping that I could find a garden-hose repair kit or some combination of plumbing fittings to replace the broken end, but it's some kind of unique thread that fit nothing (or at least nothing I could find) in the store. So I ordered a new one directly from the company and it was reasonably priced, but the shipping cost was 250% of the price of the hose. :Ptl;dr: if you think this hand pump will take all day to inflate your kayak, give it a try anyway; you may be as pleasantly surprised as I was! (I can't speak for big inflatable boats, but for my 10-foot kayak, it's pretty awesome.)(Since the manufacturer's site doesn't seem to capture reviews, I intend to put this where I might have seen it if I was going to try to find reviews for the item.)

Great Pump
This is a nice and fast hand pump for your inflatables. Delivery was a little longer than I cared for but it arrived as claimed upon purchase. I can recommend this pump to anyone.
