Strengths: High volume setting is great for seating tubeless tires.Weaknesses: Pressure gauge inaccurate on high volume setting at low pressures but you can just change to high pressure setting to top it off and get a reading.Bottom Line: This is the best pump I've ever had by far. I've had no problems with it. Blackburn stands by their products. I had problems with my Blackburn AirTower 4 (after years of use) and Blackburn sent me a new one.

Strengths: strengths?Weaknesses: I got one, the internals failed within a couple months; returned it, the gauge broke within a week; returned it, and blackburn sent an Air Tower 4, and those internals failed within a week. It doesn't seem it would be that hard to make a pump that could do something crazy like, i don't know, pump a tire...Bottom Line: POS
Duration Product Used: 1 Year

Strengths: This floor pump is the slickest looking air pump for those weight weenies obsessed with carbon fiber (myself hesitantly included). It promises the best features of any pump: a high volume setting for filling up tires quickly and a high pressure setting for easily topping off road tires above 100psi.Weaknesses: This two stage system didn't last for long. I had only been using the pump for around 1.5 months and the high volume setting would no longer pump at all. It feels like the high volume dual stage is jammed up because I can't even press down on the handle.Bottom Line: I would advise to stay away from this overpriced and faulty pump. I called Blackburn and they have replaced the pump with an Air Tower 4 model which has the simplicity of a single stage and has been a very reliable pump so far. Blackburn has a full warranty and great customer service and I really recommend their single-stage frame pumps and floor pumps, but not the dual stage models like this Air Tower 5 and their Air Stiks.
