I write this assuming it will not be put on the web. I purchased the 5 by 4 platform after communicating with your representative. The goal was to extend our dock just a bit and park an 11 foot inflatable next to it. I was told it would be stable for this application as it comes with ballast bags so we could step off the boat onto the platform. I checked re antifouling paint, received the platform, communicated that the ballast bags not included, your rep was going to check with the warehouse why not included, I painted the platform with antifouling and gave it a try. It is in no way stable enough for our purposes as is, and then was told that ballast bags not included on the 5 by 4 and not sold separately. I did not contact your group as I had already painted it, but honestly I was given completely inaccurate information and the platform is worthless for the application i wanted. Please do not post. I do not want to do anything to hurt business but this was pretty horrific customer service. I would expect that the representative would know the product and that was clearly not the case. It was not cheap, but for my purpose useless.
Small, easy to handle, and does an amazing job of both inflating and delating large fenders and low-pressure inflatable items. Only inflates to 1 psi (enough for the fenders) The 20V battery last a long time. I use a 2 stage pump for inflating the items which require 6 to 15 psi of pressure but, I use this pump to deflate the high pressure toys because it is convenient.
Not sure why they designed it the way they did, but the straps should be attached to the fender. They are very difficult to attach to the piling while holding and bending the fender to fit the piling. Once installed it’s also difficult to pull the straps tight enough so it doesn’t slide down the piling. Once installed it works fine and protected our rail from scraping so if you can install it, you’ll enjoy it.
