I got this at a brick-and-mortar store for pretty much this price. I was surprised at how accurate it was considering the price. It does require some coordination to get it sealed properly, but it's not that difficult.
The main problem that spurred me to give this review is the fact that I tried to use it yesterday after several months without touching it and got a low battery indicator. I haven't even had it for a year, and only used it a few times! From what I remember, the packaging (long thrown-away) says the battery is not user-replaceable.
I'd rather get something a bit more expensive but that will last.
reading is off by 10-15 psi...
the good news: at first when i looked at this product i thought the nozzle at the tip looked super cheap and was afraid it would break off by the 3rd use... the bad news: the pressure readings are off by 10-15 psi!! this will not ever be used 3 times...
this product is garbage
Works Like A Charm
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
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
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.
