Highly Efficient Portable 💨 Air Compressor: Viair 00088 88P Review

Do not buy this item. I would give a zero rating if it was available. Units burn through compressors with little use. I bought this as an emergency for my truck a few years ago and have used it less than 2 dozen times to keep the recommended tire pressure on the road. About 2 weeks ago the fuse blew when I tried to use it. I went to the store, bought new fuses, pumped up the tire, thought everything was fixed. Tried tire #2 and whoops. Another fuse blown. Tried it a third time just to be safe…

I have had one of these pumps for a few months now and it has worked great so far. I have it in my 4Runner for off-road riding and I have 33" tires. I pump up to around 18-20psi when riding on sand or trails and use this pump to push the pressure up to 36psi. work and it's pretty fast. It gets pretty hot when I'm done, but it's still done in a reasonable amount of time. It takes me about 15 minutes to air all four tires. I firmly believe that 2 is 1 and 1 is not, so I bought a second pump as a…

I just bought this Viair based on reviews and looking at the company's website and a 3 day test of many compressors. Revain's reviews helped me make my decision. I chatted live with Viair online and they respond very quickly. Firstly, as far as I know, someone probably has a headache trying to make a choice and wondering which model is which tire. The 88P is ideal for tires up to 31 inches (up to the larger tires used on trucks, off-road, etc.). Smaller model numbers like 85 or 87 are for cars,

Details of the crash and my solution below, but first what's good about it. By connecting directly to the battery, there are no fuse problems in the 12V car socket, which is great. Air volume and speed are great and even better when running my car engine. The aerial cable is so long that it can be a bit unwieldy at times. I'd like a good quality print and a lever-action lock, not screwing it in. When switching on, some air can escape from the valve when unscrewing. There are high quality push…

After purchasing 3-4 cigarette lighter air compressors that are not at all good for inflating large tires, I started looking at 12v on-board and portable air compressors. 220v with 5hp so I only need it to bleed tires after a 4WD ride or to help someone with a breakdown. I've read reviews and priced compressors between $800 and $40. I kept seeing reviews and people saying the Viair 88P was the best value for money on the market. For $58 I figured I couldn't go wrong. Two days later I received…

The review I left below was written after this product failed at a very inopportune moment, causing significant stress and expense. However, I'm increasing my rating because of the excellent response I received from Viair's technicians and customer service after explaining the issues I encountered. Although the unit was bought 3 years ago and I didn't test it when I first got it (only when I really needed it in the middle of nowhere last month) they fixed it for free. I had to pay for shipping…
