Review of the Best Balloon Pumps in the Market
This is a review of the best balloon pumps you can find in the market, according to my experience as a balloon twister.
The little Palm Pumps
The Palm Pumps are little squeeze bulb pumps that work well with the long balloons used for twisting sculptures, (which are known as 260's or 160's, depending on their size). With each hand squeeze, a bit of air puffs into the balloon. It takes 20-30 squeezes to inflate a balloon. They are small and convenient, specially if you only need to inflate a few balloons.
The Spaghetti Blaster
This is an inexpensive single action hand pump. It is very light, slim and easy to handle. The best choice if you need to inflate lots of thin 160s.
The Hand Pump, Dual Action.
This is my favorite, the one i always use no matter where i am. Dual action means that it pumps in both directions. This pump is very light, easy to use and works well. I use primarily to inflate 260s, although the nozzle adapts to balloons of other sizes as well. The best choice for professionals that need a dependable pump.
The Single Action Hand Pump
This amazing hand pump is the number one choice for beginners, as it is very sturdy, compact, easy to handle and performs very well. I used that one when i first started learning and it was very dependable, although not as fast as the dual action.
Balloon Floor Pump
A great manual pump for the twister who wants a flashy professional image on stage and a dependable pump at the same time. Just one stroke inflates a standard 260 balloon. It weighs less than 6 pounds. I have seen it used, but never used it myself.
Twist-N-Flate
This pump runs with a high-powered battery that will last up to 3 hours, long enough to inflate up to 500 balloons. Its high pressure inflates balloons of all sizes. It is lightweight, portable (can even be shoulder mounted for right or left hand use). Best choice for professionals that need to stand for long hours and inflate hundreds of balloons.
Mini Mac Light Balloon Pump
Faithful to its name, this is a large but light manual pump. The Mini Mac Light weights only 4.5 lb and comes with a carrying strap to make transporting it around easier. It can fully inflate a 260 in one stroke!
