Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Comes in a nice zippered storage case. I like the valve connector, it is easy to attach and it leaks very little air when it is disconnected.

Cons

Second time i took it out to use it, it powered on but the compressor/pump would not run. Took over 10 minutes per tire to inflate. Never had so much trouble with a tire pump that was designed to run on a 12v system.

The compressor gets so hot the rubber hose melts right at the metal. This damages the rubber which eventually splits and leak air. Im worried its going to start to melt the vinyl sheathing by the time i’ve aired up 4 tires.

There was a pop and hissing. It bogs down and then just dies at 45lbs. Must have overheated.

Quality

A durable and well performing tire inflator

My last slime tire inflator lasted just over 10 years got this newer model with digital gauge and works great

Held back one star due to cord burning my hand when unplugging it

Flat tire and restaurant had no inflator

Price

It was about half price than it was listed at advance auto parts

I like to be able to assign the air pressure to a designated value

Competitiveness

This model is analog but i like it much better than the the slime 40063 digital model which i bought for my other house thinkin... Read More

I am going to buy another slime 40030 and returning the digital version which is by the way almost twice the price

It got stolen and i bought a different brand

After trying the other brand i immediately bought another one of these
