Works Fine
I bought this to help me when Hurricane Sandy hit. It works just fine, but the 75 watt inverter is a little weak. I now have it in my car for emergencies.

Dead on Arrival (DOA)
I purchased this unit to power the Koolatron Compact Kooler, which uses 4.5 amps. I figured since this adapter is rated at 5.8 amps there should be no problem. Well there was a problem. I got no juice from the adapter at all. At first I thought it was an issue with the cooler, but I quickly ruled that out when I was able to get the cooler running while plugged into a 12V outlet in my car.

I then thought that maybe the amp rating of 5.8 was exaggerated, so I tried plugging in a standard car phone charger, which also did not work with the adapter. My conclusion ... the adapter is a dud. It seems like after reading some other reviews here, the amp rating of 5.8 may indeed be exaggerated, so I decided to go with another product (5 Amp AC to 12V DC Power Adapter).

Weak
I bought this to use with a Coleman Inflate-All Quick Pump so I could inflate bike tires and other things without having to be near a car. It did not produce enough power to even budge the pump, even though the manufacturer claims it will work with a pump or compressor.

Make sure the seller will pay for return postage if you buy this. (Northern Tool & Equipment didn't.)
Mine didn't work
I ordered this converter and the first one I received didn't work. I have another converter that runs my DC appliances just fine so I know it wasn't my appliances. I returned it and requested a replacement. The replacement didn't work either. I would order a different brand.

A really strong workhorse
I have had my Air-mate for almost 12 years. It was made by EMGLO and I have used it to finish out over 30 residential homes and eight commercial properties in the lower 48.
I looked at all kinds of compressors but I needed one that was portable, dependable, and could take the abuse of being moved around a job site and across country.
After due dilligence, I decided on this one.
I clean the air filter, check the oil now and again and it has never refused to preform.
It's a little hard to get started on really cold days, but aren't we all.
Truly, one of those tools that stand the test of time.

good little compressor
I bought a used rental unit from my job 4 1/2 years ago and it has been great. It will run an impact, die grinder, drill, cutoff tool and more. It does need time to recover so it will not efficiently run them continuous. It is great for inflating tires and other small jobs and is capable of other larger jobs. Overall the unit is over 11 years old and I have had to put a capacitor and power switch on it an no other problems. Good for the novice or the professional. Also is small enough to provide mobile air power which is a plus.
Great buy used. See my recomendation for pump parts.
I just bought a used AirMate two tank 4gal for $75.00 (it is the 1.5 HP, not the 1.1) and feel redeemed after spending $125.00 (to much money) on a used Dewalt/Emglo One 4-1/2gal tank unit that blows a little oil.
In comparing the two to each other, I see no difference in motor or compressors and the only difference is in the one or two tank configuration and one compared to two line hook ups. As stated on some reviews of the one tank version, it has problems with pressure valve adjusting (sticking or not working) as does the old unit I bought.
All in all, if I was to have a choice between the one or two tank versions new, I would buy the
two tank version hands down. I don't know what went wrong with the one tank configuration, but it could be the extra money they had to spend on dual hook ups; I just don't know, but this is the configuration that is supposed to be the hot shot go to construction compressor. NOT
Also, the cheapest place I could find for the pump...

Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty 12-Volt Tire Inflator
Great for 4x4s, RVs, SUVs, and trucks, and inflates a mid-sized car tire in about 3 minutes.

With regular use, the Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty Tire Inflator will help your vehicle achieve optimal fuel economy, maximize tire tread life, and ensure proper vehicle handling.

The dual power switch features separate switches for the light and the compressor.

Includes Carrying Bag and Adapters

The compressor is convenient to transport and use, and comes with a canvas bag for storage. Ball and raft inflation adapters are included, allowing the COMP06 to meet nearly all your inflation needs. Use the COMP06 on your car tires, motorcycle or ATV tires, basketballs, soccer balls, inflatable rafts, air mattresses, and more.

Before purchase, check your car socket amps!
I'm writing this review because the Amazon description doesn't inform you that you NEED 15 amps to power the device as clearly stated in the owner's manual. Unfortunately, I didn't know this before purchase so when I plugged it into my Honda Pilot which only supplies 10 amps, it didn't work. I called Slime customer service who confirmed that all their products require 15 amps.

Check your car owner's manual to make sure your power socket supplies 15 amps!

I'm giving it 5 stars because the device itself looks very high quality with a nice storage case. Slime customer service was also speedy and helpful. Too bad the Amazon item description was inadequate.

UPDATE: I have since bought the Black & Decker ASI300 Air Station Inflator which works great with my car.

Slime Pro Power air compressor 12 volt
Great carry case, well made, very fast tire inflation, a good buy. Works well on larger SUV type tires. Not a cheesy, cheap compressor.
Great little pump
This pump is far and away superior to a cheaper unit I had been using. I like the coiled air hose and its screw-on connector to the tires and its quick-disconnect connector to the pump. Also, the pump-mounted switches are more substantial than the switch on my old pump, which was on the power cord and had to be replaced. As noted by others, the fabric carrying case does fit the unit snugly, but I've had no difficulty removing or replacing the pump or air hose in the case.
Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty 12-Volt Tire Inflator
Product Features :
  • Heavy duty 12-volt inflator plugs directly into your cigarette lighter, 15-Amp fuse required
  • Inflates a standard car tire in 3 minutes
  • Features a built-in dial gauge (150 PSI/BAR) and bright LED light
  • 16 ft. green coiled air hose with twist-connect
  • Includes canvas bag and adapters for inflatables, such as sports equipment or pool toys
