WILL BREAK AFTER LESS THAN 10 TIMES OF USE. just past year of warranty

This pump was only used to inflate tires on my class c van. If it worked, then it was fine. It easily connects to the Mercedes Sprinter engine for increased power. Suddenly he began to roar, and the air would not be released. I paid for shipping from Florida to Viair in California. The service department informed me that the cane came loose and scratched the cylinder. The repair costs $119. In my opinion, this is a manufacturing defect (made in China). I am very dissatisfied with this customer…

Good for 5th Wheel

I have a 2500 HD pickup and a 38 foot 5 wheeler RV. On a recent trip our 5 Series broke down. We sat on the side of the freeway for 3 hours waiting for the roadside assistance to put the spare tire on. When we changed it was already dark, so we went to the nearest campsite. When we woke up the next morning, the tire next door was also flat, obviously damaged by the blast. The Viair 400P-RV was long enough with both hoses to reach every tire on the RV. It only took a few minutes to get the tire…

Pros
  • Rugged Finish
Cons
  • Working Speed

I opened the shipping container, inside was a very good compressor, a tool bag with hoses, an air chuck and a pressure gauge. The sensor is completely inaccurate and the air cartridge did not work (air leak from the broken cartridge). Unfortunately I didn't test this before we went to Baja and had to use it to inflate the tires on our truck, which is pretty confusing. when you deflate and the pressure is not what you think). I called Viair for help, when I got back they sent me to VM, I left a…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • I won't say anything

I have an RV with dual rear wheels and valve expanders. For the rest of my life, I was unable to pump air through extension cords using various types of so-called high-performance tires. I even tried a 50 pound air pump. It was also not possible to fill up at the gas station. Tire shop only. I FINALLY found Viair. It's very expensive, but it's also serious gear and it actually inflates my tires using a handy pro system and a screw chuck that's way better than clipons. You can calculate the…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Intervals

Great product and customer service! - a suggestion.

I bought a compressor a little over a year ago. Due to the frustrating issues with the tire valve extenders, I actually worked on this one. It's not fast, it's a compromise you make to get high pressure in a small package, but it just works well to get the job done. On several occasions I have had to pump Michelin 275/80R22.5 on my RV from 0 PSI to 95 PSI. It took some time, including a pause, for the compressor to cool down, but I got the big tire up to the required pressure with no problems…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Don't know

What is a compressor and what is not?

What else can you say that hasn't been covered in countless videos and other test reports? Well, there is one more thing to say. But before I get into that, and just to be clear, if you are looking for the best solution for servicing your tractor unit and want to try an RV on the road, there are some better options. as Weir; and above all, two sets specially composed for motorhomes. While I don't mind buying Viair compressors, I want to offer my voice of reason. It's no news that Viair…

  • Pleasant to use
