Did the job it’s suppose To do

It takes a few minutes to fill up tire. Maube 5 or 6. But it goes by fast. It’s a lil loud. My wife’s tire was low and it was 11pm. So it was to loud for that time of night. Maybe in daytime it wouldn’t seem as loud. Anyhow I drove down to a closed gas station and did it in their lot. Did a great job. And the price is perfect.

Works as advertised!

I rigged it up and inflated my donut and it works as advertised. I was a little concerned because it is really light weight and I am accustomed to compressors being heavy units, but it does the job and stows neatly in the trunk. I am glad to know it's there. I bought a used Hyundai that came without a spare or a jack - and i didn't find out until I had a flat. I'm glad to have this little unit.

Great for emergencies and topping off

Used it today to fill up two flat tires for one of my friends. It was very cold with lots of snow on the ground and was about 16 degrees. I know the operating temp is 20-120 or so and it worked pretty good at 16. Nozzle was easy to use, so I don't know why a few people were commenting that it was difficult attach and remove. It's likely they mis-threaded the nozzle. To inflate the tire on a Jeep Grand Cherokee took about 5-7 minutes to get it from fully flat to 25lbs, which was enough to drive to the gas station for a proper fill-up. Both flat tires took about 15 minutes total with no rest time. If I were to guess, it would take about 10 minutes to get to full tire pressure. I'm sure it would take less time if the tires were off the SUV, but even with the full weight on two tires, it did a good job of inflating. I can't say about the longevity of this pump, but so far it's working. Yeah, it's noisy. I don't really think anyone should care especially if you're trying to avoid being stranded somewhere. Let the neighbors complain.

So far, so good!

I got this because two tires gave out prematurely and one went low. I had no choice but to get replacements from Amazon (they sent them quickly - thanks!) and I needed a pump in order to get the tires inflated so that I can go to place to put them on. This does the job as advertised and inflates the tires in a relatively timely manner. The cord is just long enough to reach the back tires of a late model Accord. I had always seen these things but doubt them, but I like this and the price and this comes in handy for expected and unexpected purposes! I can't speak to it's longevity as of yet (I only had it a few days), but so far - so good!

Definitely worth the price

Gets the job done. Only takes one or two minutes to air up a tire from the 20's to mid-30 psi. I also appreciated the open nozzle attachment. I was able to use it to clean the dust and debris off my computer's psu to get it working again.

Smaller, Faster, Better

I've owner other small portable compressors, but this is the best I've seen. It is very compact, loud but no louder than the bigger ones. It inflated my tires surprisingly fast. I like its simplicity. Durability will be the long-term test, but it makes a great first impression. One potential drawback IF you have a large vehicle -- the cords are short. I was just able to reach my rear tires with the device plugged into the cigarette lighter socket near the dashboard. On a longer vehicle, you'd need a plug location in the back seat or hatch area. I also loved the screw-on connector to the tire valve, much superior to the clamp style on other compressors.

Really useful and compact. Recommended.

I like it! I was maintaining 12 tires for our 3 cars with a hand pump, and that was exhausting. So, I decided to splurge on myself (yes, messy), and get this air pump, and I'm glad I did. It's nice and small and I like how the power cord and the air hose both fit nicely inside a compartment in the unit. I like how I was able to fit the cords back inside the compartment after using it also. The power cord is just long enough to reach all tires on a Honda Odyssey - don't know about bigger trucks. It pumped 8 tires in succession without overheating. Pumping about 5 lbs took a couple of minutes per tire. While it is loud when running, I tend to fill tires during the day when nobody is sleeping. I saw one reviewer complaining about air loss during disconnection (it actually screws onto the valve stem) but that was not a problem at all. The built-in pressure gauge is too small to be useful, just good enough for approximation so you know when to turn it off. Everyone should be using a good hand-held pressure gauge anyway for precise measurement. This unit seems to be well-built. I recommend it.

Compact and cost-effective

When I received this, it was a lot smaller than I thought it was. I found it hard to judge the size based on the photos on the Amazon sales page. I was hoping it was small and compact, but could not be sure based on the photos. See my picture, which provides some scale with my hand. The device worked very well in inflating one of my tires which had a screw in it, causing a slow leak. I had to use it several days in a row until I could get to Costco to replace the tire. It inflated the tire without issue. Both the hose and electrical wire tuck into the side of the device. When activated, the pump is noisy, but no noisier than other inflators that I’ve used in the past for other cars. In short, this is a compact, very well priced and effective tire inflator. I now keep it in my trunk.

Loud and capable

Prior reviews told me to expect this to be loud and fast; my experience agrees. One detail I didn't know until I got it, is this device has a 50% duty cycle over 20 minutes. So, you're only supposed to run it for 10 minutes, then give it a 10 minute rest so it can cool down. For keeping my tires topped up (including one which I think I've found a nail in, which will allow me to cure that leak), this was wholely adequate. For filling tires up more seriously, this might not be good enough. (But running on a cigarette lighter socket, I find it hard to imagine doing any better than this device.) I like the way the body of the device neatly contains the inflator hose and most of the wiring when I fold it up. This is pretty convenient. Some reviews noted questions of gauge accuracy. On mine, the gauge has agreed with my two other tire pressure gauges +/- 1 psi at all times. Overall I'm 100% happy I bought this pump, and I may buy a second one for my other car.

Great Pump

Its stupid and lazy to drive around for months with a slow leak and I have no real justification. This review is about the pump and not my personal irresponsibility. Over the past months I have been using this pump to get my cargo van tire to 50 psi. Once or twice a week. Worked perfectly every time and was always overall consistent in its measurement of pressure with my own electronic gauge and with the car sensors. Simple device that does exactly what it is meant to do. Might be a good idea to put it into a small cardboard box when its working so it doesn't bang against the concrete and to reduce the noise a little. Don't normally write reviews but this thing was a perfect, reliable and cheap solution to my irresponsible neglect of prudence.
