What makes a good balloon pump?

Balloons have the magic ability to delight us and are essential for any birthday party. Though balloons are fun and exciting, blowing them up isn't always fun as they require a good set of lungs or a balloon pump.  One should always use a balloon pump to inflate a balloon. Keep balloons away from eyes and face as the bursting of balloon may cause injury and do not try to inflate a balloon by mouth.  

With a huge collection of balloon pumps stacked in stores, particularly with cheap Chinese look-alike fake imports, it is difficult to choose a good quality, durable, less expensive, efficient balloon pump. Here is the guide:

What should you look for while choosing a good quality balloon pump?

1)     A good quality pump must be strong , durable,  but at the same time light weight and easy to carry.

2)      Must fit all types of balloons like modelling balloons, round balloons of different dia meters.

3)      Must inflate faster with less effort

4)      and also be maintenance-free. 

Here is our attempt to evaluate a good balloon pump we found in the market : 

A good quality Hand held Double Action Balloon Pump or Twin Action or 2- ways Balloon Pump also known as Faster Blaster balloon pump is now available in India at amazon . This twin action or 2way balloon pump can be used for inflating modelling or twisting balloons like 260, 350, 646 and also for inflating round balloons (5" to 12"), heart shaped balloons (6" and 12") and any foil balloon. This pump also inflates air mattresses, beach toys etc

This Twin Action, Faster Blaster II balloon pump is made in Sweden, exclusively for Gemar balloons, Italy for their sole official distributor in India - 'bubbly balloons' and is now offered for sale on www.amazon.in  It is more efficient than many balloon pumps available in the market as it has dual action.

This balloon pump inflates faster and with less effort because of a unique double action design where they pump air on both the push and pull strokes, which creates an even air flow. That is, the pump Inflates the balloon when you push the pump as well as when you pull the pump- bothways (twin- action), for easy, faster and effortless balloon inflation. The out stroke and in stroke give out air and this balloon pump reduces the back flow of air from the balloon to the pump.

This balloon pump is easy-to-carry, easy -to-use, and is small-sized and with light weight and hence is a good product for young adults or women of smaller build. The pump requires no special skills to operate

These balloon pumps are precision crafted from rugged durable plastic and are compact and light weight, and the nozzle is formed with a snoopy top on the handle to fit most types of balloons of different dia meters and modelling or twisting balloons without any extra adapter. 

This twin action balloon pump has a pump volume of 2 x 0.3dm³

It requires no real maintenance. To get an old pump to function like new, you can, if necessary, add a little oil that you use for preparing food. We have heard of a balloon artist who used the same for over 10 years!

This balloon pump is the same that most balloon decorators and balloon twisters use the world over. It is highly recommended for balloon decorators and also for balloon twisters, as it is durable, portable, easy to use and affordable. Have you gotten yours?
