I bought this air compressor for my teenage daughter to have in the car as her tire pressure light comes on frequently. I like this product because it allows us to check the pressure in all of their tires to find out which one is too low as their gauge doesn't recognize which tire. I also like the length of the power cord (10.66 feet) which makes it easy for us to force air into the front or rear wheels. This product is compact and lightweight, small enough to fit in a car's glove box. There is built in storage so the power and air cords can be stored neatly and tidily so they don't get tangled. The LED backlight is ideal for use in dark places. Not only do we use this product on car tires, we have used it on my son's basketball, bike tires, pool toys and floats and to inflate balloons for special occasions.
