Avoid! Smoking on first use of compressor

Bought ~2 months ago, topped off the charge, and went to use it for the first time today to inflate a tire from 49psi to start, hoping to inflate to 75psi. As it strained to deliver the first few psi, it dropped from a full charge visible (4 bars) down to half (2 bars) almost immediately. The compressor made some different noises as it seemed to “change gears” although I realize it’s not “geared”. Perhaps motor dropping power as it senses overheating? My best guess, because around 61psi the noise changed again and then I saw actual SMOKE coming from the top left side of the machine. I took a couple seconds of video and turned it off, now I’m taking it back for a refund. Won’t even consider an exchange, should have read the reviews before I bought this as it’s obviously a poorly engineered piece of junk.

Inflated my tire in cold weather -14F Windchill

I purchased two of these units during Black Friday for my son and I. I used it for the first time today to add air to my tire. The weather is -14F (wind chill) and my SUV is parked outside. Sat on my collapsible step stool, so I didn't have to kneel on the cold ground. Dialed in the correct PSI and it inflated the tire way faster than the small 9V compressor I used previously. IMPORTANT TO READ THE MANUAL. Stanley recommends charging the device every 30 days. I charged it back in mid-December. When I turned it on, it appeared full, but when I started using it, the battery icon flashed between 1 and 2 bars. I'm adding a monthly reminder to my Google calendar so I don't forget. Very glad that I bought it!

Junk

I bought one for myself and used it once for a tire and thought it was so great I bought all 3 of my kids one. Mine won't charge, one the compressor never worked and one shuts off when you use it. Can't say the last one works or doesn't work since my daughter hasn't used hers. I wouldn't recommend this product.

Stay away and save your money

Terrible quality. I have used the jump start 2 times and it worked great, but the first time i used the air pump it worked for one tire and then broke. It doesnt pump anymore. Waste of money and time. Stay away from Stanley products. Cheap, cheap cheap

Never fails or leaves you stranded

I just bought this charger when I saw an older lady standing in the rain next her car which had a dead battery. I told it’s fresh out of the box it may need a charge. To my surprise it was charged and I am 63 yo it’s easy to operate works right out of the box. Great product!

Barely enough battery to put air in a tire

I bought this for my father for Christmas. He fully charged it and used it to put some air in one of his car tires. It went really slow and the battery was completely dead after 2-3 minutes. I find it hard to believe it would ever successfully jump start a car. We will be returning this item.

Disappointed

Very disappointed. I bought this because it was made by Stanley. I used it one time. I inflated a tire to 50 pounds PSI after it got to 50 pounds it shut off like it supposed to but then it won’t start again. I am going to return it as soon as possible. It’s totally dead. None of the functions work. I put it on to charge over night but it is still dead. I would not recommend this item.

Low quality construction

I have had two of these units and each lasted just over a year. Battery life and general use (non-commercial) are too much for these units, 1000A and likely the 1200A versions. Battery life is low in some cases and the handle mounts will give up first as they are cheaply made. The Air compressor will do fine for a while but with any regular use, it fails to provide pressure even when the air pump is spinning. The 1-year warranty will not be enough to ensure it works reliably. Moving off to a different brand. This series is too basic to be reliable. It works great until it suddenly doesn't.

Good, while it lasted

Purchased March 2019, and as of September 2020, unit will not suffice when it comes to inflating that low pressure tire while on the road. The key thing I remembered when I read the manual, was to ensure I charged the unit monthly, if I wasn't actively using it. I did a good job doing so, but the lead acid battery has decreased in reliability and since it is not serviceable, I have a pile of ewaste. I was hoping for a solution which would work 2-3 years, but this is the same product offered in club for a jump starter/inflator, and I am hesitant to purchase it again. Frustrating.

Broke during first use.

Bought this went to use the air compressor feature to blow up a pool float it came on ran for about 2 minutes and overheat and started smoking wouldn't turn off until it caught fire and burned up. Never even got to try the starter feature because once it started smoking and turned off the thing is just dead. Total piece of junk save your money because this won't save you if your counting on it to in a bad situation. I expected better from the Stanley name brand very disappointing.
