Quick & easy

It's as quick as my other one with the screw-on fitting; I prefer this one, less fiddly and easier to put on and take off without losing any air.
CONS only one the pressure is not as accurate as my Tyre gauge set the pump to 2.1 bar but only reads 2.0 bar I`ve set the pump a bit higher so the pressure on the pump reads 2.1 bar when it`s finished doing what it`s doing.
All in all, I`m pleased with it well worth the money, will see how it goes now.

Stylish compact easy to use

Compact digital unit. It looks stylish and the case is of reasonable standard. The hose neatly embeds into a cutaway at the rear unit, but if the tyre valve is at the top, it’s a little short, but still can be used - the cable can be stored in a cutaway at the top.
I’ve only used it once - when I tried to inflate the first tyre, the reading was too high, however when I did the other tyres, it was fine, then returned back to the first tyre to read was low, which is what I was expecting.
The unit is very easy to use that stops automatically once the desired pressure is reached.
For the price I can’t complain. I’ll probably only use it twice a year, so hopefully it will last a few years.
The part that attaches to the valve is plastic, I question how long it will last as the previous Halfords one I had for over twenty years was made of metal.
It too early to say how reliable it will be, it is however great value for money. Hopefully it was a one off that I got a first false reading when I used it for the first time.

Great portable tyre pump, tried many and this one is best! Doesn't take forever

As an ex mechanic I have a full size cylinder air compressor in my garage which inflates tyres very fast but I've been looking for a portable one I can plug into the cigarette lighter socket if I need to pump the tyres up when I'm out somewhere/far from home and I've tried many.

I always found portable 12v pumps take far too long and were unreliable, this one is great however.

The digital display is very accurate and the pressure matches exactly with the gauge on my air compressor, the pump still takes time but it's much faster than any of the others I've tried, it took one large tyre from 5 to 35 psi in about 4 minutes and topped up a tyre from 30 to 35 psi in less than 30 seconds so maybe the same speed as the new pumps at service stations but you don't have to pay for the air! The light is very convenient for finding the valve caps on the floor or reading the tyre sidewalls

It's easy to operate, automatic and the hose and cable stores away very nicely and easily. It's as noisy as most are but at least it has some power and it has a nice rugged feel to it. I usually buy only the biggest premium brands but I tried all of them too and was also disappointed with them.

The problem with analogue ones that don't have automatic cut off is that they take time so you have to keep an eye on them the whole time and watching a pump carefully for 10-15 minutes per tyre is ridiculous, this one isn't crazy fast but it pumps up tyres in reasonable time

Highly recommended

Technology has really moved on with this type of stuff. Fed up with finding our local garage inflator usually out of order I’d give this item a go. It’s nothing short of brilliant. Charge it with a usb, set the pressure you want and it performs just lie the garage pumps only better!. It cuts out when you pressure is reached. There’s ample charge for all wheels and you can recharge it in car just like your mobile phone. Read full review

Does the job well.

Used for the first time to top up tyre pressure in a small family car and a SUV.
Charger/power cable easily long enough (with spare) to accommodate the larger SUV.
Display easy to read and easy to set required pressure and a bonus of a quick inflation time. Not as quick as a petrol stations air pump but a lot quicker than other portable air compressors I've used, both cars done within 10mins-result.Read full review

A great way to inflate your tyres to correct level quickly, reliably, easily

Amazing device! Does not need screwing on to the tyre valve: just push on and fold the lever. Affordable. Seems reliable. Once connected to the car power socket, it's nice to easily set the target tyre pressure required, then stop and start the pump. So easy to use.

My only slight criticism is that after use, there doesn't seem to be enough space to push the power connection lead back into the storage area: it's a tight fit. So rather than risk breaking it, I leave the connector end slightly outside of the housing. Not a big issue though.

Small pump ups ok.

The tyre inflator is a presentable looking product and will certainly pump up tyres although how long it will take is debateable. Seems a bit slow to me and as it has a recommended time limit of 6 minutes use before allowing cooling of the electric motor, may not be suitable for larger inflation requirements. I guess for a few psi top up its ok.Read full review

A good bit of kit.

I haven't used it yet but first impressions are favourable. It looks well made, study and well packaged. Arrived very quickly. Also handy having different nozzles for blowing up other types of inner tubes and footballs. A good bit of kit for the price I would say.Read full review

Car tire inflator.

Is a good product. It has the right value for the money you pay. Very light, easy to use. It takes no more than a few minutes to inflate your tire. I test it on my doughnut, I took all the air out and I start to inflated after I set the pressure on the inflator. Just three minutes and my wheel was done.
Cons: a little bit too noisy.

Get one

I can't confirm how accurate this device is but I wouldn't be without it....no more queueing at garages to use their air and is great as a bike pump too. Instructions are useless but basically set the pump to the pressure you want, put it on the tyre and pull down the lever and if it isn't at the pressure you want turn the pump from 0 to 1 (ON) and it will pump it up and stop automatically :>)
