Never used a pressure bleeder in 50 years of doing automotive work as my profession. Gravity bled them all by myself in a few minutes. I was tasked to put out a professional product, at a reasonable price, that was 100% safe for the public.
I never took my car to a shop to have my brakes bled, because I was the shop. If you ever siphoned gasoline, and know how the process works, know the physical laws that make a siphon work, you surely should be able to gravity bleed brakes properly, and in a timely manner.
I have no idea of why gravity bleeding seems to be an insurmountable process for many people that frequent this forum..........
It does not take a half hour per wheel as some have eluded to,
most times 2-3 minutes, if that long, keep the dialogue going by all means........
