I only popped in for some bananas and came out with a track pump.
Looks ok, sturdy enough and a three year warranty.

It's shite. Mine blew out at 40psi so I took it back and got some Stella.

I was just about to say I really wouldnt bother. Get yourself a Topeak and save the hassle.

Are they fair trade and free of deadly spiders? Hope they are not packed in plastic bags too (don't get any why any veg should come in plastic let alone stuff with it's own wrapper)

Some are ready to go in the morning, others, I reckon will just come good in time for my breakfast topping duties.
68p a kilo, which is nice.

Yeah, the pumps aren't great. Blew the seal (phnarrr) not long after purchase.

This looks like a different model though.

If you do get one, keep the receipt.

I will, and I'm thinking I won't be looking for it in two years and 11 months!

The track pump I got a few years back worked OK, but the handle fell to bits eventually. Replaced it with a Bell on from ASDA, which cost me about £8 at the time, and it's much sturdier. Think they were about £12 last time I checked though.
