 failed July 29, 2010
Sharon K, Grisenthwaite
Bought this compressor as a christmas gift for hubby. He used it twice for short periods of time both time, no longer works, it seems the motor burnt out. Very disapointed. And hoping to ship it back for replacement.
 Poor Quality July 27, 2010

I bought this for inflating car and bike tires and kid toys. It works just fine for minor inflation. However, if the unit runs for more than five minutes or so it quickly overheats. I was inflating a kiddie pool and unit says let it cool 10 minutes for every 10 minutes of operation, after 4 minutes it overheated and died. I contacted bon aire who were generally helpful and advised my experience was unusual and thus sent me a new unit (had to pay $10 shipping). Unit worked fine for small issues, but inflating low RV tires it got hot (so I only used in for 3 minutes at a time with 5 minute cooling period to be real safe), however, later on it pumped slower and slower until (even for short periods) and doesn't work again. For what it can do, it costs too much and considering what says it can do - it can't.
 Light duty only July 9, 2010
Top Stone (Tarzana, California, USA)
Useless if you need more than 55 PSI. Worked well for 3 year as a light duty compressor but the first time that it was used for anything above 40psi it took forever and started to smoke before it got to 55psi - and yes - I rested it according to the manual!
An okay tire inflator June 24, 2010
W. J. Magee (Charlotte, NC)
It does what it's supposed to do - inflate tires. A couple things I don't like: It takes a while to get upto correct tire pressure. This is not really a problem, but I had a previous inflator that did the job much faster, so it's a matter of what you're used to. Other dislike/problem: the hose attachment to the tire valve does not release easily. I have found that you can't just pull the attachment away from the valve without loosing a lot of air. I have to "unscrew" the fitting from the valve. It attaches to the valve stem okay, but release is a bummer. I do, however, like the way the power cable and air tube store inside and around the unit.
Looks good, works bad June 22, 2010
Marty (Grand Rapids, Michigan)
This air compressor has all the right features that one could ask for in a small home air compressor. I've had two of them, and they have both burned out after one summer season. I used the two units for stull like airing up basketballs, soccer balls and bike tires. I probably used it 20-25 times per summer. Both units stopped working, one almost catching fire. Don't waste your money on the Bon-Aire air compressor.
