Allowed me to clean and charge my air conditioner at home

This is a simple kit but it contains everything you need to free and charge your car's air conditioning at home. I was overhauling my system so it was exposed to air for a long time so I had to remove all moisture and air from the lines before I could prime it with R-134a. I created a vacuum in my system using the included high and low pressure lines with their nozzles and let the pump run overnight. Be sure to fill the pump with the supplied oil before you start it. Using the supplied manifold

Pros
  • Oil sight windows allow you to monitor oil quality and levels; Oil drain valve - located at the bottom of the oil reservoir and inclined for faster and more complete draining;
Cons
  • Update Availability

All in all a great kit, the yellow hose leaked right out of the box

Overall this kit looks pretty solid. not marked as open/closed rotation like some other collectors. Easy enough if you know what to expect (but some people might stumble) - the vacuum pump does the job. it runs smooth, is relatively quiet, and quickly achieves a good vacuum of -29 to 30 inches (depending on the kit's gauge). - The hoses are the first and possibly only place you will have a complaint about the kit. The red and blue (high and low side) hoses felt a little cheap but did the job…

Pros
  • Lightweight cast aluminum construction for maximum durability
Cons
  • Repair

2 broken parts, broken hose, poor connection on high pressure side

Tl;Dr: poor quality control. leaking hose, replacing a bad connector. The pump is good, the price is good. The first unit I got had a good pump, but the hose on the low pressure side was leaking. I heard it hiss when I turned off the vacuum cleaner. A few days later a new device arrived and this time the top connector is not working properly. Once again I can't get the right vacuum out. The distributor looks and feels of poor quality. The connections are released by simply pumping the hoses…

Pros
  • Oil Fill Port - Makes adding oil easier as the port is accessible from the front or both sides;
Cons
  • vulgarity
