How exactly does one pump with this? I am a neophyte so forgive me. How exactly does one work this pump to get air into the tire? I am interested in purchasing it (based on good reviews) but have no clue how it's supposed to work and am afraid to buy it and find that I cannot handle it because I am not strong enough or something like that.

I would assume it's a push/pull kind of pump. You just pull to fill it with air and push to push it all into the tire.

As I remember it, some of the reviews said if they filled it too full, it wouldn't work. You needs some air to compress to make the pump work. We fill ours about half-2/3 full and have had no problem. (That way it also won't get old on us.) Also, we don't infuse our oil, so there aren't any herbs to get stuck in the way. It isn't as forceful as a spray can of cooking oil, but it does good enough for us. I just keep pumping until I can't depress it any more, probably 7 or 8 times. My daughter likes to twist as she pumps. I don't know what else to suggest.

The pump seemed to worked fine for me. I've only added air once or twice- but I use the cushion differently than most. I use it in my car for lumbar support- I place it between my back and the seat back- it makes a huge difference in how I feel.

This pump is capable of creating the pressure necessary to fill a car tire. However, it can not attach to a valve stem without the correct hardware. Also, it would be very hard to use a typical valve stem connector and pump at the same time. It is possible, but I do not know exactly what fitting would help you accomplish the connection from pump to tire.

I answered this question a while ago here and my answer should be located within the write up reviews; That said, I shall answer it again. This is not the correct kind of pump you would or could use on bicycle, car, motorcycle tires with. It is only good for inflating and deflating what would be air mattresses, pool accessories, and such. The adapters are not made to fit anything other than air mattresses, etc. I hope this helps. For the car, motorcycle, bike tires you will need a compressor air pump. You can either go to an old-style gas station, go to your favorite car tire center, or purchase any multitude of compressor air pumps listed on Amazon.com, or other site.

The way this works is you bring up the vacuum until you see a milk flow then you stop the pump then when the flow slows down you re start the pump. Please go to you tube and type in Dansha Fasrms and watch our video> That will also help answer your questions. Our milker has been use for many years and with many satisfied customers all over the world !!!Thank YouDanDansha Farms

mine came pumped basically perfect. But I suggest getting a pump in case. I've seen it deflated in stores.

This is the ONLY thing that worked for us. Bite the valve while blowing. We pinched those stupid valves for over an hour with no success. Tire pump - no luck. Sticking holes in it with a safety pin - nada. But biting the valve open while blowing - yup, that is the only way we got it to work.

Not sure what the question is. How is it attached? Simlpy follow the directions and screw the hose into the attachment on the base. The flow of the water then creates a Venturi effect and creates a vacuum that sucks up the debri from the floor of the pond. How does it work in terms of " does it work well"? The flow of water from the hose has to be very strong. For me, a regular garden hose carrying water from a regular faucet, did not provide enough vacuum power, so the suction was very poor and did not work for me. The force of the vacuum was too weak to be effective. I have mine collecting dust sitting in my garage. Not sure what the question is. How is it attached?

It takes only a few moments to inflate, check the connection to the pump, make sure it's secure and the right side up, also check all the lines so there is no air leaking from them. If all else fails, you can contact the vendor, they've been very responsive to questions.

This pump is designed to be used with adjustable air shocks. It does not put out the volume needed to pump up a car or motorcycle tire. It may pump up a bike tire, but it would take a while. You would be better off buying an actual bike pump...

Hi LBC! We recommend a small hand pump like this one, Topeak Peakini II Mini Pump or a foot/bicycle pump. Air compressors and gas stations can over inflate the tire pretty quickly but can be used in an emergency. We recommend a 25-30 psi which allows for some give when squeezed. It is very important you don't use the stroller if you have flat or low inflated tires as a pinch flat can occur. The trick to inflating the tire is to slightly hold the stem of the inner tube away from the rim while you connect the nozzle of the pump. Thank you for your question! Hi LBC!

The only thing that this pump comes equipped to do is provide air to a automobile tire or a football, basketball, etc. However, I would be totally surprised if there weren't an adapter out there that would reftrofit this air pump to meet your needs. Hope this helps you.

Thats odd. I use a standard bike pump to air our tires. Maybe you have the wrong attachment on your pump?

You need to find the correct air connection to fit your air compressor line, there are several different types. No you can not use a bicycle pump, the make a manual version of this product if you do not have an air compressor. I really like mine.

I tried to inflate it with an air compressor i usually use for tires & it worked a little but the hose was not the same size as the inflation valve so I could not get a good seal going on & ended up finishing blowing the thing up the old fashioned way (with my own hot air) while making a mental note to purchase an air pump made for air mattresses. I. Have 2 of these air mattresses & they have held up very well through several camping trips & sleepovers with kids jumping on them.

After three inner-tubes.....finally checked here, had the same issue, and called for 2 free tubes. Apparently, you should only inflate the tube to 20 psi despite the tire stating 36 psi. Wish I would have known. That would have saved three rides we thought we were going on. I suggest the manufacture contact customers about this flaw rather than wait for someone to get hurt.
