Drawing from the design ethos of Blackburn's Core Pro Pump, the Core 3 is a more economical pump with the same basic functionality. It'll fill any tire valve you can find quickly and accurately — with fewer pump strokes — thanks to the oversized steel shaft.
At nearly 28 inches tall, the Core 3 towers over most floor pumps, while the 48-inch-long hose delivers air pressure to anywhere you could need it.
Like the Pro, the Core 3 also features the brand's versatile AirTap head that fits Schrader, Presta, and Dunlop valves. Rounding out the pump's feature set is an easy-to-read 3-inch-wide aviation pressure gauge and an inline bleed button on the AirTap head so you can dial in the pressure exactly how you like it.

I really like the large pressure guage --- very easy to read. Fairly easy to pump to 140psi for time trial tires. The one negative is using the lock lever when attaching/detaching from tube valve since it is accessed on the opposite side of the tire and I have to put my hand between tire spokes.

It attaches very well, and I appreciate that the dial is larger and more easily visible to my aging eyes. Disconnecting, however, is a bit awkward with the placement of the "bleed" valve and angle of release. I've received a few sharp wraps from the lever!
Pretty good floor pump. I like the look and design of the pump. I think the larger barrel helps.
I'm not completely sold on the core 3 pump head. I wish I didn't need to unscrew and flip it around for the different valve type. And I really really wish the inline bleed button was on the opposite side of the AirTap head. It gets in the way if I want to remove the head with one hand.
Does exactly what it is supposed to do and replaced a more expensive model from another brand that honked like a goose. Head seals well and won't unscrew valve extenders or cores. Stable base, long hose, easy to read gauge. It's not an Italian work of art, but it looks pretty good and the quality is great for the price.
