Review on Effortlessly Inflate Any Inflatable Item With WEY&FLY High Output Double Quick Air Pump (8108) by Gonzalo Marshall

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY - CHEAP & INEFFECTIVE - COULDN'T EVEN FILL A SMALL BEACHBALL

This arrived yesterday. As soon as I saw the super tiny 4-inch square box, I knew it wasn't going to be what I had expected. Inside was a tiny, cheaply made plastic "air blower" - to call it an "air pump" is being overly generous.I decided to give it a try, and hooked up the narrowest of the three attachments it comes with to fill a small beach ball. I inserted the air blower nozzle into the beach ball fill valve. First off, the nozzle comes off way too easily but you can get it to stick in place with a little pressure. Then I turned it on. Second issue is that there is a small hole over the "inflate" output of the blower out of which air comes while you are trying to inflate. Referring to the instruction booklet to see whether or not this small hole was meant to be covered (as with a finger) or left open for some reason, I found no mention of it - so at first I left it open while trying to inflate the beach ball. It was taking forever, so I tried covering the hole through which air was escaping, and the beach ball began to inflate slightly faster ("slightly" being the key word here) but the machine started to get hot, so I uncovered that hole once again and turned it off. referring once more to the instructions, I saw it said that you should not run the blower for more than 10 minutes. As 10 minutes had already elapsed and the beach ball was still not fully inflated, I gave up and decided to just return this. The item description says that it is capable of filling "air mattresses, pools, rafts, sofas, bathtub, water beds, boat, pool toys, swimming rings etc." Not a chance, not a prayer, no way, no how. Save your money. This is poorly designed, poorly made and could not even fill a small beachball!

Pros
  • The universal valve fittings allow this inflation pump to inflate air mattresses, pool rafts, inflatable boats.
Cons
  • The pump can be a safety hazard when not used properly
