Works Like A Charm October 6, 2008 I've always had trouble getting a good reading with manual tire gauges. This one is easy to use, and the display is big enough to read even while juggling the air hose, a handful of quarters, and the valve cap.
Okay, but not great September 6, 2008 The price was right so I bought a few of these. I do not find them very easy to use. They have to be perfectly lined up to get a reading and not let air out of the tire. The display is not that readable either. At the price, they are okay, but not great.
Nothing Fancy. . . It Just Works August 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've owned this item for a few months now, and used it several times, all without a problem. There's nothing "fancy" about it, which I like. It's a straightforward tire gauge. I've been very happy with my purchase.
A must have for everyone. July 31, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have a small compressor at home, and it has a built in pressure gauge that I used to believe. I got this, and realized that the pressure gauge in it was off by up to 5 PSI, which makes a huge difference.
Pros: Tiny, Light Weight, Accurate, Inexpensive
Cons: As other reviewers said, you need to put this onto the valve straight on, and press hard. Otherwise, air leaks out. I over-inflate the tires, and then use this to let some air out until I get to the correct pressure.
Overall: I have used this for over three months, on all of our families cars. I have never fully deflated a tire with this, and it has never taken me more than three tries on a valve to get it to seal. For the price I think it is worth it, and I would definitively buy it again.
Works well as advertised July 20, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Like the title says, works well as advertised. Cheap price and quite small, it's got a special spot in my glove compartment. The digital meter thing is easy to read in daylight. Also, it'll take a bit of practice but to keep air from flowing out the tire, it's gotta be put on a certain way--straight so it can be accurate. Hope you found this review helpful!
