Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Let me preface by saying I am in no way being coerced to rate this pump. I am just so upset with my broken Joeblow Max that all I can do is sing this pump's praises. It is phenomenal! Pros: Small, compact, and lightweight for a full size floor pump Rock solid design, smooth operation 3 footed base - this is genius, all floor pumps should be designed this way no exceptions, prevents so much wobble I love the idea of the rubber grips on the base, don't know if they help but I haven't slipped yet! Large, easy to read pressure gauge The presta valves lock in like a lifer con! Excellent seal! Nothing like it, no leaks or hisses, expertly designed Freakin 15 year warranty! are you kidding me!? Hopefully they never go out of business. The package on some of these pumps does have a printing error stating "5 year warranty." As stated by other consumers, customer service will confirm that it is a 15 year warranty, yippee! Comes with a bonus patch kit Cons: Honestly I can find only one. I can't really say that this is a big deal but I'm anal retentive so it bothers me. There is no internal cushioning at the top and bottom of the piston. If you are vigorously pumping away you will feel the plunger slam into the top and bottom of chamber as you pump. You can always ease off or feel for where the top and bottom are but then you are cheating yourself of a full stroke and less air compressed per stroke. As I said, I'm anal about details and this really isn't a big deal. I would recommend to the manufacturers to add some cushioning in piston to their next design to remedy this. I would also like to add that I am a daily commuting cyclist and go through several flats or blowouts a month. I also live in Alabama which ranks dead last in state wide bicycle infrastructure. This means I spend a lot of time dodging cars trying to kill me and being bullied into the gutter. Cyclists like myself need a pump that they can rely on. A pump that connects quickly to the valve, securely, effortlessly, and pumps efficiently. This pump is all that and more! I will update this review if I have any problems with it in the near future.
