Review on Efficient 120-Volt Airhead AHP-120 Kwik Tek Air Pump Canister - Quick & Convenient Yellow Inflator by James Lesley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works like a charm in sports and outdoor supplies

My only complaint about this purchase is that I was promised overnight delivery by Labor Day and it wasn't until the next day arrived so I had to spend hours inflating pools for my grandkids with an air compressor powered by my car battery. When it finally arrived I realized that if I had it on Labor Day I could spend more time with my grandkids in the pool and less time in the driveway inflating the giant float I promised them! It's easy to use and the attachments that come with it are all I need for swimmers with three different types of valves. I was very pleasantly surprised at how fast it ran compared to an auto compressor and according to the instructions you can run it for 20 minutes at a time without letting it cool down for 10 minutes. 20 minutes is enough to inflate the vast majority of swimmers for the pool. I haven't used it for deflation, but I have no reason to believe it doesn't work as well with that function as it does with inflation. I can't imagine anyone using it at home, but noise levels aren't an issue, and it's so light it might seem unreliable. I have to admit I was a bit wary when I bought this just because I thought for the price I was getting something that is just a few notches above a bike pump, but I'm totally fine with that.

Pros
  • 120v air pump for AC home use
Cons
  • Interchangeable
