Disapointed
Both the power cord and air hose are very short. You will need to use a extension cord every time you use it. The air hose is less than 2' long. The auto shut off is a nice feature.
Buy this only if you want to test Black and Decker's return policies
I have found this product to be inferior in every way. Loud. Slow to fill tires. Awkward placement of the on/off toggle. Short power chord. I could forgive all of these short comings however, if it could do just one thing; fill more that 10 tires without blowing a non replaceable internal fuse. The first time it blew B&D sent me a new one without question. The second time it blew they said since they already sent me a new one the first time, I would have to take this one it to an authorized repair facility and I would need an original receipt to do so. I can't find it (of course) so now I have a big orange paper weight. Read the other reviews, this appears to be a common problem. If you do buy this make sure you keep your receipt in a safe place. You will need it often.
Loud and extremely slow
Extremely loud when running, and extremely slow regardless of the item you are inflating. You have to literally cram the hose and wires into the storage compartment in order to get them inside, then you need to worry about pinching a line or cord when you close the cover. The hose attachments fit nice underneath but none of them fit air mattresses or the larger air holes. Also, the AC electrical cord is SO SHORT that it is almost impossible to use this product without an extension cord, which defeats the purpose of its compact design. Skip this item and spend a little more money on a better product. Sorry Black & Decker, you normally make good products but this one is lousy.
Good inflator
Works well in inflating my car tires. Inflates fairly fast and with little vibration. The only problem I have is that when I set the gauge for when I wanted it to stop it didn't stop. But since I was watching the gauge I stop it manually. Other than that it works very well.
Works great
I bought this about a year ago and have had no problems. I have only used it to pump up RV tires. It has a handy limiter that is manually operated. Set it & the pump stops at the set pressure. I keep it in the original box. Since it's so small I keep it under the bed in the back of the RV. I bought a 6-foot extension cord that I keep just for the pump - I have NOT used it on 12 volts plugged into the cigarette lighter. I have had NO problems at all. Works great.
