Great inflator
Great price, I cannot believe how expensive some of these are but I was encouraged to buy seeing it was made by the AA. Really simple to use, reaches the tyres well from the inside and inflates them quickly. Recommend.

I won't inflate my review but this is FANTASTIC
Arrived faster than a Royal Mail Xmas card . This arrived 10 minutes before the post . Amazon, you can puff your chest out , and let your head expand as once again they don't need to inflate any claims they make . They get it done, come hell or high water . And by gum there's a bit of that around presently . This item is sold at a fair price and is a wonderful bit of kit . Comes in a compact box and all the wires are neatly stored in the recesses . The product itself is so easy to use , that any fool can operate it . I step forward . Plug it in the cigarette lighter hole , attach the hose ( screw on -simples ) . Press the number PSI u want and press power . Inflates and then press power again (off) and away you go . Remove the hose though before you drive off ! Up up and away . Not literally. Do 4 tyres with ease . Compact to fit in ya boot , or if you're friendless , under the seats . Superb ,and of course, this saves your right foot pumping. I'm impressed, and all I can say is , get one in your car . This is a decent brand- with AA all over it since1897 , and one review said it lasted 8 years . Longer than the car ! . It needs a break after 15 mins as the motor warms up . I note a review states it makes a noise - well it's inflating the tyre 😂. It's a great buy and will give you a lift so get buying . There's an adaptor too for bike tyres and any other inflatables .

Compact and easy to use
I have had this for a while now, and it has been used on numerous occasions, performing just like it did the first time I used it. I decided to buy a branded one after being disappointed with a cheap unbranded one.Functions as needed. The only thing that I have been unhappy with is the noise level. But the price, it's goid value for money.

Very easy to use
As a female driver I like to have things in the car that will make motoring safer for me. The warning light kept coming up on my car dashboard and everytime I went to the petrol pump to pump up the tyres, they were either busy, faulty or just inconvenient. On a couple of occassions I pumped up the tyres according to the digital display only to find out later on my car dashboard that they were still uneven and my safety light was going off. Add to that any changes in temperature also set off the safety feature on my mini dashboard because it effects the tyre pressure! Sooo long story but I decided to get a digital pump at home so I could bypass all these problems. The AA digital pump is excellent. Easy to set up and use, very easy and accurate display. I set the pressure to a point higher than what I actually want to allow for air release whilst im unscrewing the connector, and bingo. All the tyres were evenly pressured!! any change in temperature and I can whip this little beauty out of the boot and instantly correct tyre pressure anywhere. Its very portable and I wouldnt be without it. Good brand comes with peace of mind too.

Makes topping up tyre pressures really easy.
Makes topping up tyre pressures really easy. Seems accurate and reliable after using regularly for a few months . Much quicker than hand or foot pumps.

Useful to keep in the boot and small enough to ... (UPDATE - 8 years and still going)
Useful to keep in the boot and small enough to not get in the way.Power cable (cigarette lighter style) is a good length to reach front and rear tyres (have to switch door/window you put it through to switch sides). It can also be coiled (has to be neat though) and fits in to a compartment on rear. Same can be said for airline but it coils into a recess on one end. The end of the airline has a screw type adapter and creates a good seal to valve.There is a LED torch on one end that has proven useful when I lost the valve cap in the dark, however it doesn't have (or really need) a very long range.The LCD display is lit and easily legible and can be switched between psi, BAR, etc.Plug it in, connect airline to tyre, check current pressure (reasonably accurate but prefer a dedicated gauge for final check), set desired pressure and hit on button. It seems to inflate to a pressure slightly above set pressure, possibly to allow for any leakage as you unscrew airline and then stops the pump.The pump will remember the last set pressure so if you're doing multiple cars (bloody family) double check what you need.As for reliability, I've used this numerous times over the last 12-18 months (occasionally multiple times I one day) it's still going strong. If you're running it for long periods or repeatedly allow it to cool down as the airline will get quite hot. Heat production is a natural side product of compressing air.A good pump for a good price.UPDATE:-Nearly 3 years on and besides picking up a few scratches and one of the small rubber pads on the back (act like feet) vanishing it still works perfectly.I've seen a few identical pumps with the only difference being the branding, not sure if quality is the same/worse/better but if you look around you might find a good deal.UPDATE 2:-Almost 5 years since I bought this, used many, many times including a few tyres from nearly empty. Still works perfectly, cosmetic scratches and a missing rubber foot/pad but no wear or tear that impacts it's operation at all. Money well spent.UPDATE 3:- After 8 years the pump died last night. Switched it on and it fired up and just went dead. A little disappointed but got my moneys worth out of it. Got home and checked it out....orginal fuse had finally blown in power lead. Changed fuse and all good again. Maybe I'm just lucky but in an age of planned obsolescence I got a good one.

Easy to use
Easy to use. Fits well to the tyre by a screw on attachment which is much better and attaches well. Its not big and much easier to store in you boot of your car without taking up much room
