Great with one (not so) minor exception

Brought it home and started the car immediately. I appreciate the capacity and size of the built in battery. It should be noted (and this is kind of a big negative for me) that the inflator is not a screw on Schrader valve attachment, as shown in the product photo. It's a lever locking chuck. Not a deal breaker but I really prefer the screw-on version. Not sure I would have bought it if I had known.

Faulty Product

I have bought 4 of these in the past. Recent purchase was in February of this year 2022. All previous purchases were OK till this one. The battery pack fails to maintain a charge long enough to air up a low tire after only 5 months or jump start a vehicle. It is a battery problem, not the compressor. The BIG problem is their warranty. When it fails in the 1st 3 months the manufacturer suggests returning it to SAMS. After that YOU the consumer are to pay for shipping back to Boca Raton, FL for a warranty consideration. Cost from WV is approximately 30-35 dollars, both UPS and USPS, half of the cost of a new one. ALSO, in the FINE print on the last page of the warranty, in the manual, they don't cover batteries! Yes, you read that right, batteries not included in their warranty. This is my last one purchased!

1 Year Old and DEAD!!

If you buy this product then you better get the Allstate protection - IT WILL DIE. Used 2 times, stored in a climate-controlled garage, no longer works, battery shows less than 8v when tested, refuses to charge. This item belongs to a professional electrician and electronics expert so HE knows what he is doing (despite the store questions).

Terrible battery life

We've had this for a few months with little overall usage, and the battery will no longer hold a full charge. The best you are able to get is 50%, which is enough to inflate 1, MAYBE 2 tires. Jump starting is the luck of the draw. I have had to jump my neighbor's car a few times this year and 25% of the time does it have enough battery power to actually jump the car without another full (50%) charge.

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.

Keeps Turning On By Itself

In the middle of the night it turns on and the compressor is pumping air in nothing. It happens all the time till it is completely discharged. I don't charge it anymore unless I want to use it. If there was a way to discharge it as soon as I am done using it it would be good. Other than this issue it works well.

Very happy with it!!

I bought this about 3 years ago and use it frequently. Works well for filling up tires, especially with the auto stop feature—just choose the PSI and let it run. It’s great for camping too. Plug in all your devices and charge whenever and wherever you need it.

Not bad but not great

This unit has gotten me out of a jam on a few occasions. The compressor works great and even has a feature where you can set the desired pressure and start the compressor and it will shut off when it reaches the set pressure. Now the downside. The box is roughly over a year old and it seems the battery is getting weak. I have tried to use it recently to jump off a ram 1500 and it didn't have enough power. The unit showed full charge before I started and instantly went all the way down to low battery after the first try. I like the product just feel it could use some improvements. Would be awesome to see a version that can be operated off of a drill battery. Also not much info can be found online about the tool.

Save your money, buy something else

I bought this a few years ago (mine is a 1000). Air compressor is very slow, but at least it works, kind of. At least I can get an emergency jump when needed, it'll still be worth the price. Today I tried to use the jump start feature. NOPE. No go. Battery gauge says full charge, but it will not jump start my pickup... just a few clicks, not even close to the power needed. I'm just thankful that I tried the jump feature with my truck parked in front my house. I bought this for Jeeping. Thankfully I didn't need it when there was no option b. Now I own an expensive cell phone charger.

Power station

I'm a Stanley Tool Box customer, I buy Fatmax and regular tools of all kinds, but when Menards sold their products I bought a new battery charging station that never worked, I was so angry I threw it away! Now I'm afraid to buy a new one and have it break down soon after. I think the brand has lost its reputation for electrical products based on all the comments I've seen.
