>Anon, I fully understand where are we now, what kind of thread, but hear me out: they're garbage because you're buying garbage
I know I'm buying garbage, but only because I'm forced to! I admit yours looks like a damn fine pump, similar to my grandpa's old commie car pump, but with more plastic and fluff, rather than metal.
Unfortunately, due to an annoying health condition I cant bend down and do more than 3 pumps before dying, so hand-cranked pumps are not an option, unless I can operate it entirely by holding it in my hands.
I generally dislike hand pumps as well, since they take up too much space. The pumps you mentioned are also actually pretty expensive (above 25$), especially considering I'd have to ship them anyways. Might as well roll the dice and order one from China. They honestly look very good and even the more expensive types are incredibly price competitive.

By traditional german pumps I mean these bog standard ones with zero fluff on the left. The only alternative is the one on the right, with an absolutely tiny air capacity. There are like 6 bicycle shops in my tiny bumfuck town, all selling this shitty grey crap on the right, with only the big box store having a foot operated one similar to the left.
Supposedly the grey one is domestically manufactured, but it's a godawful design from the 50's or some shit.
