Legendary tyre maker Michelin shows it’s pretty good at putting air in them, too, with this footpump. The largest unit’s wide, treaded plate made secure pumping a breeze. It delivered the biggest increase – 6psi – and the reading was spot-on. The valve clip was easy to use, too, clinching our Best Buy.

footpump review

Sorry I do not agree your choice of the best footpump. I have owned a Michelin twin barrel footpump for some 5 years now. It has been dreadful, too heavy, poor clips to hold the pump clamped, awful connecter and generally dreadful to operate.The connecter has now packed up.

Poor Quality-don't buy it!

I purchased the Michelin Twin Barrel pump after reading your review.

I must agree with Taxman (it's a shame I bought it before his comments were posted)

The pump failed about 4 months after purchase, unfortunately I lost the receipt so am unable to return it.
The action was stiff from day one and the cheap nasty plastic clips that hold the pump closed are poorly designed.
All the main parts that deal with the airflow are plastic and started leaking after a few months use. The cylinders are made from thin steel.

I didn't realise just how poor the air delivery was until I borrowed my neighbours old halfords single barrel pump (without gauge) which inflated the tyre with half the effort required from the Michelin pump.
I am still looking for a decent foot pump that will give reliable service.
My advice is don't waste your money on the Michelin pump
