Thank you for your comments.

Off hand and having no familiarity with any of those, I'd say they all look like novelty grade or sex shop grade pumps. I can't offer any advice on which one if any to purchase. Sorry!

Sheesh! I'm not going to engage in a debate here but I do find it irresistible to make a comment. I'd intended to let Dave have the last word. Oh well! I do not agree with Dave Kell's post.
