Great little compressor

I bought one of these 3 years ago. When my girlfriend's car compressor died I bought a second one for her.This is the best compressor I've ever had for carry-in-the-car use.Some people don't like the screw-on hose connector. I think that's a strong advantage, and it was the reason I bought the first one. It makes a solid connection that won't slip off.As years go by and things get a little cruddy, I found it's helpful to spray the inside of the threaded hose connection with some silicone…

Pros
  • Pumps stuff up, does what I need it to do
Cons
  • Overheats quickly

EXCELLENT Portable Air Compressor Pump.

Portable Air Compressor Pump, I thought this woud be a great buy. not having to go and sit in long lines for free air or pay for air. My sister purchase one she loves it for that same reason. So I purchase one. Two day after recieving it, i thought, heres another gadget to place it the garage cabinet, I notice my right rear tire was almost flat, I was going to call AAA, but I used the Compressor Pump attached it to the tire valve,turn it on. What I like about it, it turn off when the tire was…

Works great! - my new review

I was so sick of needing to go to a gas station to pump up my tires every time I ran low, so I bought this and it’s been amazing! It works so quickly, it’s convenient, and saves money. Can’t ask for anything more than that.

Pros
  • Capacity: Does NOT Support truck tires, for instance: light truck tires (LT), heavy duty truck tires or any truck tires.
Cons
  • Inflexible hose

Awesome little machine

really easy to use, the built in flashlight is super useful and it’s easy to store in the back on my car. Thanks for attention.

Cons
  • Noisy cooling fan

Very good, but be aware of something

I already had a similar product by a manufacturer named Fortem. I bought this EP-Auto product for my son. If you like this design by EP-Auto, great. I prefer the square physical characteristic of the Fortem --- just makes it easier to store in the car. But either is fine, because they are both small. The main difference to me, is the connector that attaches the inflation hose to the valve on the tire. The designs are very different, and I definitely prefer one over the other. The type on the…

Cons
  • Only for domestic use

Worth every penny! - my new review

I'm a female and for once I enjoyed fixing my tires! Infact this made me remember to check my tires just so if have a chance to use it

Pros
  • Great Product
Cons
  • Tough to handle

Vendor replaced product promptly after notified of problem.

This product was replaced promptly upon learning of the product defect. It worked fine the first time….but not the 2nd time. When I brought this to the company’s attention they immediately sent me a replacement. My daughter uses their portable Tire Inflator and has had no problems with it whatsoever. Kudos to management and customer service for caring about their customers.

Pros
  • Compact and portable design for easy storage and transportation
Cons
  • Motor can be slow to power up

very useful for my opinion

Purchased 2 as gifts for my difficult-to-surprise sons and they were visibly pleased. After my brother let me use his , I knew I had to buy them for my sons. Very practical!

Pros
  • Like it very much.
Cons
  • Not suitable for commercial use

Great little pump!: my feedback

Did 8 tires back to back . About half were really low. Pump did great, didn’t overheat. Twist on cap easy to use. Can’t beat it for the money. No complaints.

Pros
  • Accessories & Parts
Cons
  • Incompatible with certain tire valve types

4 years later on my review.

Purchased this 4 years ago and it's still going. I will have to purchase another one since it is having a hard time connecting to the tire but I have to kind of tilt it to connect enough to attach. For the price, not bad. The only downside of this I noticed is, it's slow to inflate a tire.

Pros
  • ‎EPAuto
Cons
  • Not compatible with certain car models

Great for what it is

I bought this to top off my tire pressure at home. I already had an AC to DC converter which makes it easy for me to plug into a wall outlet versus plugging into my car cigarette lighter. I'm sure it will work fine plugging into your car cigarette lighter outlet, but u have to have the car running in order to do so. And I'd rather not have my car running while in the garage. If u r buying this to fill your tires with air pressure, it's not going to work--or at least not very long. It's not made

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Limited warranty

So far so good best in my review

I bought this one after using my fathers in law air pump. He had his for a couple years now and has lasted him long so I figured I’d finally buy my own

Great Little Compressor.

Despite some of the negative comments I read about this compressor prior to purchasing, I am completely satisfied with this product. A day or two after receiving my new EPAuto 12V DC Portable Air Compressor Pump, Digital Tire Inflator, I decided to give it a test. As part of my monthly routine vehicle maintenance, I checked and serviced the tire pressure on two vehicles, a 2000 Toyota Camry and Toyota Tacoma Pickup. Here are my findings.1. The compressor is small and lightweight which means it…

Pros
  • ‎3.7 pounds
Cons
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty usage

Five years later, still pumping.

We've used two of these every so often over the past five years without any issues. It lives under the seat of each vehicle with an emergency patch kit. Anytime one of the cars needs air in the tire we usually just go for this due to it's convenience.Works just as well as it did day one, accuracy is close enough for car/bike tires (I think it's +/- 1 PSI on our units) that we haven't noticed.

Pros
  • Durable and sturdy construction for long-lasting use
Cons
  • Does not work well with large tires

Great comfort for our next trip in the mountains

We went on a small get-away this fall in the West Virginia mountains. Things there are located FAR apart, including gas stations so when the tire light came on we struggled to find anywhere within an hour drive where we could get our tires checked.We decided to find something to avoid the worry of not knowing if the tire is bad or how to fix it. Turned out we just needed to put air in it, so this mobile unit seemed perfect. Small, fits in the back without taking a lot of space, but comes with a

Pros
  • Great all around product.
Cons
  • Large in size

Great for a few uses!

Decent product, used it almost every single day for about 2-3months if im not mistaken it ended up breaking on me from using it so much! finally broke after using it so much, quiet not to loud compared to other air pumps, decently fast airfilled, stable and good for a few uses bought it on sale at the time for about $25-30 bucks if im not mistaken! Instead of wasting time going to certain places where normally have to pay with 4 quarters for air for me it was worth the $25 bucks because i used…

Pros
  • Easy to Read: 4 Display Units: PSI, KPA, BAR, KG/CM; LED FLASHLIGHT: Bright Torch
Cons

Great Compressor to have On-hand

This is the second compressor I am buying, only because the first one works so well, I gave it to my son. It is easy to use and quick to top off my tires. Thanks!

Pros
  • I like this more then the last one which was huge but super slow
Cons
  • Difficult to repair

Does the Job on my review.

Works well for what it is but not tremendous quality. One of the EPauto nameplates fell off when I took it out of the box. Also, the bag is way too small. It's nearly impossible to get the unit into the bag so be careful as the plastic handle snapped in half when I was trying to press it into the bag. The best part of the unit is the digital gauge and ability to preset your desired PSI and it fills up to the desired PSI fairly quickly.

Pros
  • Extremely reliable. Lightweight and gets the job done. I would highly recommend.
Cons
  • Poor air flow

Very functional tire inflation at a great price

This unit replaces a previous unit I had purchased many years ago. I like this new unit better. The light is helpful and the ability to set the desired tire pressure digitally is very useful. It is compact and fairly lightweight. I hope to use this for many years to come.

Pros
  • Long power cord and air hose allows for easy reach to all tires
Cons
  • Battery drains quickly
