I just bought an itiwit, tbh, i think its its mint! while it does its thing i can relax, make a coffee, may not be the fastest but the auto cut off when it reaches pressure is spot on.
If it has t*ts, tyres or floats......it's gonna cost ya!

I went with the Sevylor that runs off the car 12v socket. £49, works treat and sorts the high pressure floor with oomph to spare. Very pleased.. ..

Agree, the Itiwit from Decathlon is a great pump at a great price.

However, pretty bad form to tell the OP buy one as a back up when they’ve just bought the Sevylor.

And... in all honesty the similar, reliable, and not much more expensive Sevylor, is probably a far better bet pumping to the same 15psi over three times quicker than the Itiwit.

Why would you need to buy two pumps?

If you buy a single electric pump then you will have two pumps anyway as presumably you still have the footpump.
Not a complete idiot - some parts are missing.
