METROVAC 12-IDAR MagicAir Electric Inflator/Deflator - 12 Volt Power Unit, Lightweight All-steel Construction, Weather Resistant, Baked Enamel Finish

The ONLY pump you would ever use if you have one.I had one over 30 years which worked flawlessly until it got drowned for months due to a leaky roof.Biggest problem was finding another.

The weakest part of this inflator is the cigarette lighter (12 volt) adapter. The plastic adapter is not well thought out. The inside threaded part is only about 1/16th inch thick at the thinest space between the threads. You need to put pressure the plastic adapter to insert it in the power outlet. Not surprisingly, one of the plastic threaded parts broke off, resulting in a blown fuse to my car's power source. Like most people, I use it only a few times a year so it was out of warranty. They wanted $17.50 plus another $7.00 for shipping to replace the part! What a rip-off!! That's almost half the price of a new one (they now sell for $55.00)! To add insult to injury, they told me their policy is that they do not accept a credit card for orders under $25.00! That appears to be contrary to federal law and Visa states it is contrary to their contract with vendors. [...] One would think that a company would be a little more customer friendly all around. While the body of the product is metal, unless you plan on throwing it around, it is over built, and you are paying for something you don't need. A better choice and one that gives more air volume is the Sevylor (now a part of Coleman) and is about half the price! I have been using Sevylor for a number of years and have never had an issue.

My wife and I used this inflator to inflate and even better to deflate and 'vacuum pack' our Avon inflatable boat for five years on our sailboat trip around the world. The Avon was our 'car' and was inflated and deflated countless times often under very harsh conditions. We carried a spare but it was one of the few backup pieces we never needed. The Magic Air never let us down

Best inflator I've ever owned. We used to be able to inflate our zodiac in a few minutes with it. Use it now for towable's , pool floatsShopping for the black connector parts now – owned it for over 15 years and only now just lost one of the pieces. Pump still works very well after 15 years of abuse

I have had this pump for 7 years.it is still going strong. I use it during the school year to pump up big balls and beach balls (PE Teacher)and at home for pool rings, beds,etc.well worth spending the extra money will last a long time.
