Tachikara Ball Inflation Kit

We bought this kit to blow up a set of 8 of the "bounce" ball type of balls that you see in the bins in toy stores and grocery stores. The kit arrived quickly, was easy to use, and did the job well. Just took a few pumps to inflate each ball. The unit seems very durable even though it's lightweight and I like the fact it came with extra needles. The flex hose also made blowing up the balls much easier and reduces the risk of bending the needle. It's a good buy for a basic ball inflation kit.

I love this package! The pump is easy to use and fits well in your hand. The tube is flexible so the needle won't bend if the ball moves while pumping. I really appreciate the ability to read the ball's air pressure. This will be extremely helpful as I am mainly a basketball coach, and the air pressure is regulated and adhered to. No more under or over inflated basketballs!So far the pump has performed well. Usually pumps break down, having too short a life span, but this one seems to be better made!

This pump is a good value and works great. It pumps up a deflated ball faster than I expected. I like having the option of using the extension tube or not and usually don't use it, holding the ball between my knees. If I was rating the pump only, I'd give it 5 stars. But since this is a kit, I gave it 4 stars. One reason is that the guage it comes with isn't very accurate. I ended up buying the other dial type guage and it is excellent. The other thing is that it would be nice if this all came in some sort of a kit. I solved that with a zippered neoprene pouch, sort of like a large cell phone case, and it holds everything together well.

This is THE only inflation kit you will need if you play sports. It's portable, well made, and includes everything you will need. The extra needles are a nice touch too since those tend to get lost easily. Even comes with a pressure gauge! (I initially thought I could use it for my car tires too, but it doesn't measure to that high of a psi...only to about 14psi i believe, which is more than enough for most balls)

good plastic, easy to use and store
