I've had an ultralight Schnozzel pumpbag for years. It worked fairly well when new, but despite being stored in a cool dry place, the interior surface got sticky, making it more tedious to use. Then the seam tape failed, causing the air to leak out rather than going into the mat. That's why I ordered the mini pump, and boy am I glad I did. It's so much easier to use! Inflating my DownMat is now so much easier and quicker.

I like the way you can roll it up and attach the output port to the input, keeping it nice and compact without the need for the stuff sack. Claimed weight is 45 grams. Measured weight is 48 grams for just the pump, and 53 grams with the stuff sack. So it's significantly heavier than spec, which is disappointing. It'd be nice if they made a smaller ultralight version with thinner material and a shorter connecting tube. They should be able to get it under one ounce (28 grams).
