This air pump is a lifesaver. I can keep it in the car for an emergency it plugs into the 12v outlet, and When my in-laws sleep over I can use it to pump up their air mattress because it can also plug into the house outlet. It is small enough not to take up all the room in the trunk, and light enough even my wife can carry it. good also for the pool toys, certainly will make my life easier. This photo is my wife sitting on my 1973 Triumph Stag that I am always blowing up the tires.

Bought this unit online back in May 14. The unit failed Nov 16, just right after the 2 year warranty expired. While the unit still turns on perfectly, air leaks from the seams of the fabric where it connects with the metallic piece (see picture). It's quite possible that the metal piece somehow punctured the fabric and the inner tube with use, allowing air to leak from the hose. The unit got me in a dangerous situation that left me wondering why the inflator was not working to inflate my car (pressure was staying steady and slowly decreasing rather than going up). By the time I figured out that air was leaking from the hose, half of my tire was already deflated, and TPMS activated. Luckily I was in the same parking lot as a Sears and was able to get a different inflator there. Since the hose is not a replaceable item and there is no way to repair it besides warrantying it for a new unit, the unit I have essentially is a brick. If you want something that you can rely on that will last, go buy something of quality and from someone who will stand behind their products!

    On The Road or At Home
    Out of the box, I was inflating the pool volleyballs by just plugging into a wall outlet. Then onto checking tire pressure using the car outlet. Great and practical idea having the option of using 12V or 120 AC.

    Failed on first use
    Unit failed on first use. I was using this inflator to blow up an inflatable mattress. It worked for a little while (though inflation seemed VERY slow going), and then it started making a noise, and it started blowing hot air out the side of the unit. I am sure Home Depot will allow me to return it, so I am not too worried. Considering I purchased this for $50, and it still failed, I think I might just go with a cheap unit.

      I literally just bought this from Home Depot about an hour ago. I tried to test the unit but the LCD screen reads my SUV tires are at 7 (two blank spaces) 5 PSI(they are at 32), the controls did not work, no airflow what so ever. I also tried the other adapters for filling an air mattress and again, no way to get airflow or even a valid PSI readout on the LCD. Complete junk, first and last Husky purchase.

        Total junk! It failed the second time I used it. The compressor blew a seal and now it's useless. I should have already learned my lesson concerning Huskey brand 'tools' and never even looked at this thing. I will never buy another Huskey brand piece of junk.

          A very useful device if you need to put air in something like a tire or an air mattress.

          This didn't work. The pressure sensor was off by 90 psi so I could only inflate up to 30 psi. I returned this and got a refund. The 120v pump didn't work at all ( wouldn't power on) so I returned that as well.

          Take your chances. The first one I bought died after a few uses, but I was able to exchange it. Now, after about a year, the replacement no longer shuts off automatically.

            The pressure settings button didn’t work oit of the box. The LED screen flickers on and off while in use from time to time. For the price and the purpose of easily inflating a tire it is good.

              Didn’t work out of the box so I returned it. After reading all the reviews which I should have before I bought it. Out of the first 7 reviews, 3 of them were returned because product did not work out of the box. Home Depot took it back w/ no questions asked.

              This model works great, and is a much better version of the smaller model that is half the price. My only use is to inflate car, wheel barrow and bike tires. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend.

              Works much faster than expected...pumped a car tire from 22 psi to 35 in about 5 minutes. Used the car plugin option so easy and portable. Nice digital readout, although it seems to read 1-2 psi too high. Great buy.
