I have not used that specific pump, but the great thing about Topeak pumps is that you can get replacement parts for them.

Bad link. Topeak pumps are hit and miss. Some require rebuilding often, others not so much so. Thankfully, as stated above, replacement parts are available. The more metal the better when it comes to pumps.

I'd go for it. Topeak makes decent products.

Looks very similar to my Joe Blow Sport, which has been holding up well. I very much prefer the double-sided head of these lower-end pumps to their "SmartHead" design.
