This is the second-cheapest pump here, but definitely the best budget option. It’s no surprise that there’s no on-board storage for the accessories, or clamps to secure the hose neatly in storage, but a simple clip holds the two halves of the product together, making it a doddle to get back into its box. The gauge features an adjustable red pressure needle, which is clear to see and second only to a digital display for ease of use. Set it prior to pumping, then stop when the black needle meets the red – so much easier than squinting at small numbers from several feet above.
