This inflator is surprisingly small compared with other electric pumps I've had, but it does its job perfectly. An advantage of its small size is that it slips easily into the glove box, or nooks and crannies in the boot. The connector is different from all other pumps I've had (foot pumps or electric) in that it's not the 'quick-release' type with a lever to clamp it onto the valve. This one has to be screwed onto the valve. It takes only a moment and gives a very secure connection. As with all electric pumps I've had, there's a slight discrepancy between the tyre pressure shown on the gauge when it's actually pumping and when it's switched off but still connected to the valve. You quickly learn to make an allowance for this.

Apart from the above positive aspects, there are three negative features to this product. However, it is an excellent tool for quickly pumping bicycle tires, but look at (3) below. 1. It is of low capacity, hence very slow. 2. It has a short hose, so has to be held very close to the tire. (inconvenient). 3. No quick connection. It works by screwing on to the tire valve. The connecting screw is PLASTIC. What if it breaks with repeated use.

Well this little belter, bought this for my motorbike because it was small and compact. I didn't expect much from it but frankly it amazed me inflated my rear tyre ( 180 55 17 ) in about 3 mins to 36 psi. . It just needs a little longer hose and would be perfect 👌 even the gauge reading matched my digital one. forget those little expensive gas bottles and get one of these .

Pros: Inexpensive, takes up little space, small and neat. Didn't arrive due to postal problem. Replacement arrived quickly Cons. As it's small it's quite slow. PSI easy to read, metric less so.

Have used to inflate car and small trailer tyres. Does the job but gets slow around 25-30 psi. Probably not for tyre pressure above this. Screw fitting for valve great idea, doesnt lose air around fitting like ones with lever fitting. Great wee gadget for the price.
