Pros
Decent size for a pump, easily fits in my pack.
The dual head seems to work pretty well for either valve type.
Cons
I have never successfully pumped a tire up to decent pressure with it.
High Volume / High pressure switch doesn't seem to make much difference.
Review
I got so mad at this stupid pump that I finally got a CO2 inflator. Now I wonder why I ever even bothered with a pump.
The Genuine Innovations Air Chuck, with a cartridge, is 1/2 the price of this, and inflates a 2.3" MTB tire in seconds.

Review
This is a great emergency pump. I got mine for $15 so is a steal for the price.
Review
For emegencies the pump works pretty good. It is compact in size which is both good and bad.
Good-as it is light weight and easily stowed in a camelbak or shirt pouch.
Bad-The compact size makes it a bit cumbersom for someone with larger hands.

Works pretty well. I like the adjustable inflation pressure. Downside is that the rotating head is somewhat confusing as it rotates both directions but only works properly in one direction.
