I bought this gauge to replace a cheap one purchased at the auto parts store that broke when I dropped it. This new gauge has been just as effective as the cheaper one. It measures 4 psi heavy predictably when compared to my TPMS in the car. The gauge is easy enough to read without my glasses and if it's a little darker the face plate glows. The quality of the materials seems proper and should last for many years. Would I buy again if this one broke? Probably not since my cheap one lasted me 10 years or so and was just as accurate and a 1/3 the price.
Overall I am happy with this product.
Bought this to replace my broken pressure gauge. I was apprehensive about spending $70 on a pressure gauge but I also wanted one that didn't require me to do math to figure out what my tire pressure was. This gauge is approx 1psi different than my tpms in my cars computer. I set at 40.2 or .3 on the gauge and my tpms picked up 39. I bumped it one to 41.2 and read 40 psi on the cars computer. The large gauge numbers make it easy to read and the swivel head at the end of the hose makes for an easy connection. I wouldn't mind a bit more hose length to make the holding of the gauge and connecting the end to the valve stem. Really minor issue but if I had to find a fault that would be it.
I bought this gauge when I bought my Jeep Rubicon XR, which gets aired up and down often. 37 psi to 15 psi and back. The on-board tire pressure monitors are not all that accurate. This gauge is my bench mark. It is accurate, easy to use, and easy to read. I especially like the swivel chuck and the bleed-down button. I recommend it and would buy it again without reservation.
Difficult to use. In my opinion, the gage needs a straight attachment to facilitate access to tire valves. The current angle attachment does not allow me to use it on two of my vehicles. It defeated the purpose for my purchase; to have a quality tire pressure gage in each vehicle.
