 It works very well September 2, 2008

I got this compressor like a year ago. I agonized deciding between this cheap option and other fancier, more expensive compressors. Boy, did I make the right decision. It works perfectly well. I keep my SUV tires in perfect shape. It does the work. The only tiny caveat: make sure you have a proper tire gauge. The gauge incorporated in this compressor goes into the 100's, so it is impossible to read the difference between, say, 28 psi and 32 psi.

I may have used this thing 2 to 3 times at best since I bought it back in May 2008 and the inside of the seal has already ripped up so that I cannot even get it to attach to the tire valve. Can I say 'Rip Off'? Look elsewhere and pass this one up!
Just as advertised July 24, 2008

The item arrived on time and was not only what I wanted but was "as advertised." I could ask for nothing more!
Has an actual amperage requirement of 15A, not only a regular 12V outlet would be sufficient.. July 22, 2008

I just got this tire inflator and when I went down to the garage to pump up the tires, I was disappointed to see that this device actually has an amperage requirement to work properly! I have two relatively new Hondas(08 Pilot and 06 Civic) and neither of them seem to comply with this device. Their power outlets are rated 10A, whereas this device needs a 15A minimum. So actually 12V is not the only requirement for this compressor to work, it needs to be coupled with proper amperage.
I contacted the manufacturer(Slime) and the customer representative responded to me saying that the device might work(or blows the car's fuse) but there is no guarantee that it would work with less than 15A. So basically I ended up in a "try at your own risk" situation having bought this inflator.
I am returning this item sooner. I would also suggest Amazon.com to put in more detailed product information for this item. I wouldn't have bought this item in the first place if the amperage requirement was listed here.

This Slime COMP03 air compressor should not be listed on your website. It run for 18 min.to go from 30psi to 35psi on one tire. The noise level was unbearable. The light was just ok, not bright, but air came on the light when dead. After one tire I gave up and put in were it belonged, the trashcan. The name should be Shame not Slime.
