I am getting lazy to foot-pump my 2.3 m slat floor inflatable.
Could any of the esteemed members recommend a decent pump or compressor for the purpose, please.
Nothing fancy, but reliable with good track record.![]()
Very happy with the maxi-pro, I think it's sold under various names, so you might find it cheaper somewhere.

If you have any of the ryobi 18v range they make a pump that will do it. Cheap as chips as well. You will need to add an adapter on the end of the high pressure hose to suit. Clamp a bit of 3/4" pipe on it then add the adapter. Its the ryobi p731. Use the low pressure for fast inflate then finish with the high pressure.
I bought mine at BCF. It gets about 95%, which is normally fine if only me on board. Plus it sits in a rack (chained of course), so I prefer to leave it a bit under pumped.
Thanks guys, a lot!
After visiting the local camping store and looking at the plethora of uselessness they offer l think only one question remains:
Does the maxipro come with the PROPER fitting to attach an inflatable to it?
I think it does, it is a gut feeling, as one could not see it properly on the fotos, but if it does, well, it is the one, despite the filthy lucre!
So does it?![]()
I use my makita cordless blower,pumps it up to probly 90% in a few seconds. good enough to use, with motor
Or top it up with hand/foot pump if you want
SirG. If you're anywhere near Darley Ave Mona Vale call in to the Zodiac shop opposite Whitworths.
I've bought a pump that plugs into the car cig lighter. Works well.
