yes it is a bit loud, yes you need to use your car, but it works so fast and so well ! I bought a 18ft inflatable slide to use in the lake near our house, and it took about 10 minutes to completely inflate it ( probably even less to be honest ). There's a lot of connector, can inflate pretty much anything. It is a must buy

Pump is a bit loud, but works well to fill inflatable. Not sure about correct installation of the red pressure relief valve - it seemed to be releasing air right from the start so we use the pump without the valve installed. Instructions do not clarify anything on the use of the valve. Works well for our air tubes without it anyway.

The pump was bought as a gift and only just opened and there was a split in the hose after trying to straighten it out. Just wish that i had checked it when the item was received as I'm not sure how to get in contact with the seller to try and organize a new hose. Other than that pump seems really strong and i believe that had the hose not been split this would have been a 5*.

this unit is excellent for airing up my zodiac with no effort at all. the pump came with all the necessary fittings and worked perfectly right out of the box.

This thing is amazing! Blows up adult sized inflatable tubes in less than a minute! This is a high volume compressor and will get you those nice firm fully inflated items.Well worth the money and very small and compact.

The air hose it comes with is crap, and because of how it's packaged it's creased and on the verge of splitting if you aren't careful. I got one where this happened, and they had no problem with doing a return and sending me a new one, but again the hose was no better on the replacement. I actually heated up the hose to try and relax the crease so it didn't split again. Something I shouldn't have to do with a new product.Aside from the hose issue, the pump itself seems well made; and as far as I have used it performs quite well. Service and response from the vendor was also very good.I would give this a 4 star if it weren't for the crappy air hose.

LA UTILIZO PARA LLENAR UN INFLABLE PARA TRES PERSONAS QUE UTILIZO EN LA LANCHA, LO INFLA RAPIDO Y TIENE LA SUFIENETE PRESION PARA DEJARLO FIRME, FACIL DE UTILIZAR YA QUE SOLO LO CONECTAS A LA BATERIA DE LA LANCHA Y LO PRENDES.LO RECOMIENDO AMPLIAMENTE

Best pump ever. Had to buy this as a replacement because in my original one, sand came in and it stopped working but thats what happens when your at the beach. It's a very good pump and I would buy it again anytime if I had to.

This thing is horrible. Just horrible. I have the 120V Super Pump by Airhead and it is great. But running on 120 and pushing over 900W, it should be. But with no 120 on my boat, I've been on the hunt for a equally fast 12V pump. This is supposed to be the big dog of the 12Vs by airhead. Well it stinks. I'm talking "giant dino dung in Jurassic Park" stinks. I haven't been this disappointed in a product in a very long time. I had it out today blowing up an island inflatable and it took forever. A few times I swore I didn't have the hose on correctly or something. After 30 minutes, I ended up grabbing my old O'Brien pump I got from my local boat dealer. ( http://www.amazon.com/OBrien-12V-Inflator-Deflator-Pump/dp/B00JA4W1WM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1463021253&sr=8-2&keywords=obrien+air+pump ). It was super sonic compared to this guy. I just don't get it. This connects directly to the battery. It should blow the O'Brien or cig lighter connected pump out of the freaking water. DO NOT BUY THIS. This is also listed as a high pressure pump. Well you can forget that too. After using the O'Brien to get the island mostly inflated, I switched back to the Airhead thinking I could get a little more firmness. Nope. I think it was actually losing pressure. Honestly I really attribute this to the tiny holes on each end of the hose. I'm assuming these are meant to keep the unit from overheating. But they really are letting a lot of air out. The Super Pump version has them too. But with its massive power, I guess it just overwhelms them. No other pumps I've ever experienced have these. Just get rid of them! This will be returned tomorrow. This now has me questioning the Super Pump. The Super Pump is great, but using 120 there might be better pumps out there. I'm still on the quest for the best 12V air pump. At this point, I'm considering adding an inverter so I can run the Super Pump or another 120 on the boat. But until then, the search continues.Also, I am baffled by all the 5 star reviews this pump has. There are only two explanations I can offer. One, the design of the pump may have changed. If this is the case, sounds like they need to go back to the old design. Two, everyone that thinks this pump is great has never used anything else.UPDATE 5/17/16 : I just couldn't shake how crappy this pump was. Maybe its because I have the 120V Super Pump and it kicks but. I just couldn't wrap my head around the same company making such two equal awesome and equally crappy products. So, thinking I may have had a defective unit, I went to my local Bass Pro Shop and purchased this pump again. Well, my suspicions were confirmed. This pump is legit. I've been using a very large inflatable island to test all of the different pumps I've been going through. The Bravo High Pressure 12 pumped the main chamber to a stiff capacity in about 20-21 minutes. The Airhead Super Pump 120V did it in about 4-5 minutes. This little guy did it in about 8. Remind you, these times are to a firm full. This pump had the island 95% full in about 6 minutes. Only a few minutes short of the Super Pump. Considering this pump runs on 12V and not 120, that is pretty darn good. Its also well worth the few minutes to not have to find/add 120 to the boat. All and all this is an amazing pump. Well worth the money. We will see how long it lasts. But for now its a 5 star item.

I bought this pump in error. This pump does not get above 2-3 psi.

Just tried it today with my seahawk 4, easily and very quickly managed to pump the boat to needed preasure without using manual pump, so both high volume and high pressure. Used 7Ah 12V battery to inflate and deflate without any problems. Great pump overall.

Great little pump, with all the adapters you can throw a stick at. Well impressed, best I've used yet. Can recommend.

Ich kann nur sagen hält was sie verspricht....2 kleine Nachteile:- braucht viel Strom- ist sehr Lautaber diese Leistung kann auch nicht ohne Energie enstehen und die Geräuschentwicklung ist Bauartbedingt nicht zu vermeiden.Sie ist so stark, dass man sogar auf Reisen die Vacuumbags aussaugen kann. Ich verwende sie auf Motorradtouren für den Schlafsack und da lässt sich viel Platz sparen.Das Aufblasen von Matratzen, da gibt es nicht viel zum sagen... ausser, vorsicht, dass sie nicht platzt. ;-)Nur zum Empfehlen ist absolut das Geld wert!!!
