I picked up a Topeak Mini Morph this year, scaled down version of the Road Morph, and has a short hose. With a hose this length I do have to be careful where I place the pump if my bike is not upright so I don't bend the valve stem. It's the only pump I have and has only been used on 3 tire replacements. Seems to work well on both threaded and non-threaded Presta's, but the jury is still out.
Best decision? Picked it up from REI so if it fails in any manner I think is unreasonable, I get to return it. REI is great for that, trouble is I rarely exercise the option.
