Review on ๐Ÿ’จ Effortlessly Inflate with Portland Design Works Shiny Object CO2 Inflator Head by Tony Suggs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

CO2 pump for home use

I've had my shiny thing for over seven years now. It works perfectly. A few weeks ago, not realizing that the cartridge was not empty, I began to unscrew the inflator head from the CO2 cartridge and "slammed" it as if it was about to explode. The sealing ring is damaged. It was complete user error. I noticed gas leaking out when piercing new CO2 cartridges. Full of crap. Thinking I'd have to replace it, I started digging around looking for the next inflator head. However, I then discovered that Portland Design Works makes a rebuild kit for about $4. After replacing the o-ring next to the punctured pin, the inflator was like new. I expect at least another 7 years from my refurbished inflator head, possibly longer as the only reason I have problems was my own fault. I am literally stunned. This thing is worth every penny.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Good but not great
