Need a moderate air compressor for inflation and light nailing.....
September 25, 2017
Perfect for our needs. Classy looking and a little loud but we use it mostly to fill tires and inflatables. But the recovery is very quick and the pressure very strong and best of all its a Porter Cable.
A little bit louder than I expected but works great. Perfect size
May 2, 2017
This thing has a quality feel to it. A little bit louder than I expected but works great. Perfect size. Nice look. Really satisfied with it. Don't forget to get the accessory kit with it so you can have blower adapters and other useful things.
Great. Light weight
October 15, 2016
Great. Light weight. Keeps up with brad nailer and stapler. A little loud, but a good trade for the weight
Love love love it!
October 15, 2016
This is perfect for any home! I have mine mounted in my garage. It packs a ton of power and easily blows up car tires. I purchased mine in October 2016. Instructions are spelled out very easily.
PORTER-CABLE CMB15 150 PSI
May 23, 2015
Compact, lightweight, great quality, we keep it in the "basement" of our fifth wheel. I only need to air my tires up to 80 psi and this works perfectly for that.Get yourself an extra 25' rubber air hose (and fittings) to go along with this and you won't have to worry about kinking the plastic hose that comes with it.Just remember it has a small tank, you're not going to blow out your sprinkler lines or run an air gun with this. For tires and a quick inflate of some pool toys though, you can't beat it.
Great portable compressor
August 29, 2014
I bought this to have compressed air on the go for our motorhome. I needed something small, light weight and powerful and this compressor met all of that. It pumps up fast into the on-board tank. My only complaint would be the compressor outlet. I prefer to have quick-connects on my hoses to the compressor but the location of the discharge line complicates the installation of a quick-connect as it would stand out from the compressor too far out. Even installing a 90 degree elbow presents a problem so I simply direct connected the included coil hose and installed my quick-connect at the end of the hose.The hose is not so terrible and the included accessories are OK although my air inflation adapter (for air mattress) came cracked. There is a neat storage pouch on the back of the compressor but it lacks room to store the included accessories.Overall I am really pleased with the compressor.

Good quality, much cheaper than in the big box store, and the clip for the stems works great
December 15, 2016
This is an initial review. I will update it if anything significant changes. The product I received was as indicated and for a much cheaper price than the local big box store had them for sale. I used this to inflate all the tires on our Jeep without issue including the hard to reach spare. I really like that it clips onto the stem. No more juggling trying to hold the inflator in place at the exact angle needed to seal it. Thus I was able to watch the gauge while I inflated my tires. I like the pressure release button so I can more accurately adjust inflation pressures. The gauge markings are small but accurate. I needed a higher pressure gauge to inflate my truck tires, so no complaints there. I have three vehicles and three trailers, so I do expect it to get a lot of use. Initially, it seems up to the task.
Inexpensive, quality product that's FUN to use
November 28, 2016
This product is so great it makes me want to move some of my other ratings down to a mere 4 stars to illustrate the relative greatness. It only took a minute to install on my air compressor hose and then I quickly and accurately inflated the tires on two vehicles and three bikes. I was disappointed when I ran out of tires to inflate. :(

This should make the chore much more enjoyable when it's freezing out. Before I had a bare metal inflator with no guage that had to be pressed hard against the stem to inflate tires. This could be uncomfortable - especially in cold weather - and the process had to be repeated after checking the pressure with a separate guage.

Now, I just connect it to the valve stem (though it can slip a little if too much force is applied via the rather stiff hose) and the rest of the inflation is pretty much a one-handed operation which should even be possible while wearing gloves in cold weather.

Nothing like adding comfort and ease of use to the chore of keeping tires properly inflated for family safety and fuel efficiency.
Don't let the price fool you, this is the BEST inflator I've ever used
July 14, 2016
Quite possibly the best tire inflator I've ever used. The straight fitting on the hose end is VERY easy to use and much more convenient than the press-on-and-hold type or the push-on-and-throw-the-lever kind. You just push it on with very little resistance and let go of the lever. It holds itself on. This won't work on a SMOOTH valve stem but how often do you see that? The gauge has the right scale and is easy enough to read. I like that it's a dial gauge rather than numbers. The vent button is easy to use and in a good spot. The trigger allows for smooth, easy operation. You don't ever need to strain to press any control and they don't get stuck. It's easy to quickly and accurately get the pressure you want. The scale on the gauge is appropriate for tire use, unlike some where the scale goes up to 500 psi making 30 almost impossible to read accurately. This scale is 150psi, perfect for tires. Finally, the best part I discovered is that the gauge works all by itself without any hose or attachment. This means if all you want to do is check pressure you don't have to haul the entire hose and compressor around with you! You can check and bleed off air with just the inflator. And the price? This thing is WAY better than junk that's going for several times the price!
I can't believe I didn't buy this sooner. Great tool, Great Value!!!
January 8, 2016
This has become a favorite tool for my wife to use. I was a little leery of purchasing this due to some poor reviews on the product when I was buying. I wanted a quality tire gauge that I could easily fill and read the pressure in 1 tool. This is the answer!

I've bought several of these to give as gifts as whenever anyone comes over and sees the gauge/inflator in the garage they express how they need something like that. For $12 (at time of writing this) that is a simple gift to give to someone.

I installed a quick release using a good teflon tape. When I say good, I don't mean the white stuff. I have had mixed results with that junky thin white tape, so I spend the extra buck or two and buy the Oatey Heavy Tape, or Mega Tape when I am at the store. This stuff costs $2 and takes way less wraps to give you a quality seal. If people are complaining about leaks, it's likely the junk tape they are using.
I've had this tool in my garage for a year now and it is used by both my Wife and myself. In MN when it gets cold it's time to inflate those tires and this tool makes it simple and quick when it's -20 and you need to get to work.
Five stars if you take two min to fix the tire chuck.... one star if you dont!
September 10, 2014
If you read the reviews- lots of people complain about the tire chuck not working properly. When my unit came- I had the same problem on my 2014 car. I couldn't push the tire chuck down far enough onto the tire's valve stem to engage the pin valve to let air into the tire. Tried on my other two cars... didn't work on them either.
I was ready to send the unit back for a refund- when I noticed you could take the tire chuck apart, so with nothing to loose I disassembled it by simply unscrewing the clip-on piece from the threaded hose end. Inside the chuck was only one part... a 3/16" thick soft white silicone washer that was responsible for sealing the chuck to the valve stem while filling the tire. It was also the part that was preventing the chuck from fully sitting down far enough on the tire's valve stem to push open the tire's pin valve. So, I used a utility knife and shaved about 1/16" off the washer so instead of being 3/16" thick, now it was 1/8" thick. I put the modified washer (with cut side sitting against the brass chuck base not outward towards the tire valve- for better sealing), screwed the chuck back onto the threaded hose end and gave it a try out on my car.
Well, now the chuck clipped onto the valve stem very securely and instantly/correctly operated the tire's pin valve showing me the tire's pressure and allowing me to fill it to the correct pressure with just one hand.
So a two min fix with a utility knife/razor blade fixes the tire chuck problem... permanently!

As to the accuracy of the built in gauge... it exactly matched my Joe's Racing Garage (known for their accuracy) analog gauge... both showed my tires at 37PSI. I filled them up to 40 PSI and both gauges agreed once again.

If you fix the chuck, this inflator's a steal because it's all metal and good quality.. if you don't... it's worthless.

Nice compressor at the price.
April 30, 2016
I use it for inflating trailer and light truck tires (70-80PSI) and it does so reasonably quickly and quietly for a $100 compressor. Compact. Fits through the small trailer storage compartment doors.
Not bad for the money and size.
February 10, 2015
Nice compact compressor. Keep in mind that the 2.0SCFM/90 psi rating essentially means it the compressor can pump 2.0CFM of air at the input pressure of 15 psi, with a back pressure of 90psi at the output. This means the compressed air output volume is only 0.28CFM at 90psi. On the bright side, this rating is actually slightly lower than the real output of the compressor. It takes about 5 minutes for this compressor to fill my 1.5CF tank to 120psi.
good unit with a few small improvements needed
October 2, 2014
I have been using this compressor frequently to add air to tires on my cars and bikes, inflatable toy for my sons to be used in the pool. I also use it to blow out leaves and dirt in my garage. It's very handy to have the unit in the garage. However, I wish that the hose is more flexible, and it runs a little quieter. Also, when it runs, the unit is kind of moving around due to vibration. No big deal, but it's just a little bothering. Overall, it's a great compressor.
Review Update: I'm glad I purchased this item. It works very well and is just the ritght size for a woman.
August 22, 2014
This compressor does not come with a trigger nozzel BUT when my husband attached one to it's hose, it made a big difference in performance AND I no longer had to turn the pressure regulator on and off, which is a pain (it should come with one). If you get this compressor, invest in a trigger nozzel (check the PSI rating of the nozzel itself as they vary) and once attached this compressor is everything one would need for odd little jobs. The pressure nozzel I have can't go over 90 PSI without a chance of it being blown off, but 90-PSI is plenty enough. The design is very good for carrying around furniture, etc. Weight is not too much for me (I'm a 59 woman but have always been pretty strong) and I like the curled hose in that it does not go all over the place. I used it in my dining room to blow out the light fixture and the hose reached just tine and did the job without any problems. I HAD decided to return it but now I'M KEEPING IT.
Good for the price
October 4, 2013
Bought it to inflate tires on our fifth wheel, pickup truck, and hitch cushion, and it will do that very well. Took only about a half minute to inflate our big pickup tire from 45 to 60 #. That's fast compared to 12 volt units and almost as fast as a gas station unit. This is a serious piece of equipment, but I can't vouch for its longevity. Have only used to 3 times so far. I'd like to see longer AC cord. We bought a 40 foot extension cord for about 10 or 12 bucks. The adhesive plastic sheet that covers the front and on which are printed the labels/descriptions of the meters, etc. is lifting off. This happened soon after it arrived. Minor issue but otherwise we would have given this compressor a 5 star rating.
Great pump, bulkier than I thought
May 25, 2013
I had bought this pump to use both outside and inside. The low dB does allow indoor use without leaving family and pets with ringing ears - but the device is a lot wider than I had hoped making it a slight more cumbersome for my beloved to handle. Which is fine- I didn't want her to touch it anyways. The parts fit extremely well and the coiled air hose has great range for sitting the unit down and then walking about doing your thing. The central dial is a neat feature which allows one to increase/to decrease pressure for little jobs where just a small bit of air is needed.

Nice tool. only falters on the leak and it cost 1 star. but i'd buy another
March 25, 2017
Pro's
Love the long dongle with the air hose so I can keep the guage in my hand where I can also read it.
Really like the fact that it also has a release button.
It locks onto your threads so it won't just fall off.

Cons
Only one I can think of is no matter what i do i can't get it to seal with my adapter. it leaks no matter what, so i can't leave it attached.
I went as far as buying expensive Husky hi flow aluminum fixtures, used pipe dope AND teflon tape and still couldn't get it to seal. Tolerances are just too generous I believe.
A Man with Two Gauges Never Knows what the Pressure is
December 3, 2016
As my Dad used to say "A man with two watches never knows what time it is". And now that I have this pressure gauge I don't know what the tire pressure is on any of my vehicles tires. That's because I have tested this against 3 other tire gauges that I own and none of them read the same. I am going to assume that this one is correct. The "tire pressure' trouble light came on in one of my vehicles and with my other pressure gauges they all showed the pressure was correct. With this gauge it showed about 8 pounds less pressure so it is more in line with the sensors in my vehicles tires.
A great little tire pressure gauge/filler
July 28, 2016
I recommend getting the right connection when purchasing this or make sure that the connection fits directly to the air compressor line. I will need to get an adapter but I took it off an older air fitting so no big deal. It's pretty solid construction and makes it really nice to see the pressure as you fill up. This device limits the extra equipment required to accurately get the correct reading. Instead of having a pressure gauge and air fitting it's combined into one and makes it faster and easier to use. The quick realize tip makes a secure connection and is just that "quick". For the price and the ratings it's a no brainer. I would give it 5 stars if it came with other air connection adapter fittings.
Pretty handy. It's all in one and no looking for the lost air gauge or tip for the air hose
January 9, 2016
I ended up not being super amazed at this one. I like the G. H. Meiser regular gauge without the fill capability. This one: Accu-Gage H100X Professional Tire Pressure Gauge with Protective Rubber Guard (100 PSI)., Durable, easy to get the number you want and it seemed painless.
I may use the Campbell Hausfeld MP 6000 on a different project and love it but what I have for day to day work it doesn't do something right. Maybe it was the seal on the valve stem when you clamp it and let go expecting it to do its job. I saw the local tire guy one day and he aired me up. had a straight tip apprx. 6" long. He pushed that on a valve stem and then sat back to BS with me. Wow, it stayed on. I have never seen that before, only dreamed of it. And he was running about 150 + air pressure
Great inflator, sometimes difficult to get a perfect seal but overall I would buy this again, very convenient!
November 11, 2015
I recently bought this because I was so tired of the pressure your tire up, check it with a gauge, repeat and hope you don't mess up the angle and leak the air out just to start over again. I have had a pretty good experience with it so far. The built in gauge and relief valve button are very convenient. I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 because of a sealing issue I have with it that I discuss in con #2 below. Overall I definitely recommend this. Remember you will need an adapter to connect to an air hose as this does not have one built in or come with one.

Pros:
1. Very convenient!

2. Gauge seems accurate when compared to other gauges I have.

3. The tool feels well made. It has a heft to it that you want to have in your tools.

The 2 Cons I have are:
1. You have to connect your own pneumatic connector to the bottom. (This may be standard on these types of tools when purchased new but I didn't realize. Luckily I did have a couple of extra and some Teflon tape.)

2. I have an issue keeping the seal on the schrader valve. It will hold initially but with added pressure pushes itself off and starts to leak. You have to physically hold it against the valve. This is common on most inflators but with this one there is a mechanism at the end to hold the inflator to the tire with a spring powered "gate" of sorts. It either isn't strong enough or the overlap in the sealing rubber in the end is too much and pushed back against the valve. I seem to remember other comments about this but not sure if it was on this product or another. I have been meaning to trim the sealing rubber a little on the inside and try that.

Close Porter Cable, close
May 5, 2017
Having lived with this compressor for a bit now, I decided to write a review that I feel better represents this product than most I've read.First off, it functions fine. That is to say it doesn't leak air, is quite portable, regulator and gages work, all as to be expected. It is not as quiet as some have indicated. This is not a surprise for an oilless compressor, but don't mistake it for the relative quiet of an oil type. The biggest issue I have with the little Porter Cable though, is it's balance. This thing wants to fall over, a lot. It falls over in the truck, it falls over on the job. The rubber feet form a much smaller footprint than the effective footprint determined by the enclosure. This, combined with a center of gravity that's just about over the middle pair of "feet" exacerbates this problem. Because of this one has to take extra precautions with as it is bound get damaged.
Works well but too small.
December 10, 2016
It is too small.Originally I bought it inflate my tubeless mountain bike tires and it works great for that. They I found more uses for it like blowing off saw dust of my miter saw and things like that. The compact factor is interesting but there is a not much larger model made by Ryobi which you can buy for the same price when on sale and has a 5 gal capacity which will greatly extend the applications of the compressor.
You get what you pay for
April 19, 2016
I bought this to basically fill tires. For that it works fine. However, I also have a Makita portable compressor that outshines this one by miles. If I was to do it again I would invest in something better. Crappy hose.

It would have been great, but the regulator broke.
Eh...it works.
April 22, 2013
I'm working through a warranty process, I'll update this if it starts to work.The regulator valve leaks and no pressure can get from the tank to the hose. So far it's a noisy paperweight.Edit: I went through the warranty process with the manufacturer, and I recommend using the Amazon return if at all possible. Porter Cable outsources to local shops, and then the local shops ship stuff where they need to go. It took about 8 weeks for the shop to deliver, and by deliver, I mean fix it. I had to go to the shop to pick it up.I'm not using the compressor for anything trying, but it's been functioning fine since the regulator valve repair. It'll compress air up above 120 psi, I didn't check all the way to 150. It's loud, but unsurprisingly so. I added an attachment for filling bike/car tires, and I'm using an adapter for presta valves.

Hose lock bad, otherwise great for the price!
February 23, 2016
Good item with one big exception, the stem lock is useless. It is supposed to lock the fill hose onto the valve stem so you can fill the tire and pay attention to the gauge. When trying to lock the hose on it doesn't hold the stem strong enough to use. Air constantly leaks out and the more you try the more air gets out. I tried pushing the hose on until the air stopped leaking out then letting go of the lock while keeping the pressure on the hose. As soon as I let go of the hose letting the lock take over air started coming out.
That said the gauge and fill works very good. You just have to hold the hose in place. Just slightly better than having a separate pressure gauge. Don't have to go from hose to gauge to hose, but it is so much better using one of these that works! Wish mine did.
Although the problem is small it is big enough in my mind to take it down 2 stars. Had the lock worked I would give it 5 stars. No it isn't as strong as a commercial air fill, but it isn't the same price either.
Poor tire valve stem fit
January 2, 2016
Product seem to be well made, but chuck that connects to the tire valve stem is difficult to get a tight connection - seems to leak air unless you push and hold it on fairly hard. I have another (Brookstone) tire gauge that fits the tire valve stem without problems, so pretty sure the Campbell Hausfeld product is the problem. The gauge is fairly accurate - within 1 PSI of the reading from the Brookstone unit, so am happy about that. Price is good and will use it, but not really an advantage over using a separate gauge and air source because of the poor tire valve stem fit.
I think this is a nice product and it works as advertised
September 21, 2015
I think this is a nice product and it works as advertised.
Having said that, I have several issues.
It came with no instructions and only by luck, did I discover the brass nut on the side of the handle is actually a pressure release button to adjust tire pressure if over-inflated. Who knew?
The handle comes with a threaded fitting that fits nothing. It is 1/2" x 3/8" and to use with a standard Air Compressor/Hose requires an adaptor which was not included and is hard to find. Most air tools have a 1/2" threaded handle that takes a standard hose 1/2" male thread, or a 1/2" threaded quick couple. I am not sure why the handle is 3/8" threaded, but I was able to find an adapter at ACE Hardware.
If the handle was threaded 1/2" I would give this device a 4-5 Star rating.
Buyer beware: This device needs an uncommon adapter to make it work with Standard Air Compressors and Hoses.

Received this compressor yesterday and am disappointed at the design quality
July 7, 2016
Received this compressor yesterday and am disappointed at the design quality. First of all, the connecting rod that drives the piston is belt driven, with what looks to be a flimsy cog belt. Second, the connecting rod and piston are completely exposed to the elements, only shrouded by the plastic housing, and the fan is blowing air over it so if used in a dusty environment dirt will be blown directly on the piston which would dramatically shorten the life of the compressor. Third, this unit shuts off at 135 psi, not the heavily advertised 150psi, and kicks back on at 115 psi. Forth, after only about 5 minutes of use the sealed bearing on the piston rod was slinging grease out of it, this will shorten it's life due to lack of grease eventually. This is not the design quality I expected from a Porter Cable product. I will keep it to inflate trailer tires while on the road, but I don't expect it to last long, if I am wrong I will update this review, but as it stands I am not impressed.

Center pin fell out after maybe 2 hours of use
December 8, 2016
This was a decent tool while it lasted, but that wasn't long - the center pin fell out. Really infuriating - the device was working fine, released the locking mechanism from one tire's valve stem and went on to the next tire and no flow. The gage was reading exactly the same pressure as the compressor's gage (rather than the pressure of the tire). The center pin in the part that locks onto your valve stem to let air in/out was just gone. Fell out, rendering the inflator useless for anything with a valve stem.Had this item for 17 months, and only used it only infrequently and only for car tires. I would estimate a total duty cycle of less than 2-3 hours.Looking for another brand, but the hose/valve stem locking part of almost all of them look identical. Possibly all made in the same factory in China!
Doesn't seal well, and I can't fix it.
January 5, 2016
I have the same problem as several others: the clamp doesn't hold the tip onto the valve stem tightly enough to make a seal. I had the same problem on my bike and car. I'm trying to jury rig something to get it to work. Other than that, it seems like a well made product.Update: I've spent too long trying to fix this. I removed the washer and trimmed it down, but I still can't get a good seal.Update: After trying a few different inflators, I've learned that this style of valve stem nozzle just doesn't clamp on to the valve stem securely. You always have to hold it in place. If you want one that will hold on by itself, you need to spring for the ones that look like this: http://www.amazon.com/GrimmTools-Digital-Universal-Inflator-Schrader/dp/B018TVL4Z6
Faulty
August 11, 2015
There is a little flap of metal that clamps down onto the inflator nozzle of your tire and this thing is so flimsy there's no chance it will last. It fell off after inflating 1 tire. Actually it's so small that I didn't even realize it and couldn't figure out why the inflator wouldn't hold. After carefully looking around I noticed it was lying on the ground next to me. So I reattached it and tried the 2nd tire with the same results. I can't imagine why someone built this thing & decided that was the best option. The rest of the assembly is fine. Too bad.
Great Concept, Flawed Execution...
July 17, 2015
Great concept, flawed execution on this, and repeated on many nearly identical products from other manufacturers. The clasp to attach the air line to the item to be inflated is hard to get to make a solid seal without much loss of skin off of ones knuckles, and causes my compressor to repeatedly turn on to replenish the air lost while trying to connect. Alas, the old faithful regular ball head end (no pressure gauge) is still the best and easiest to quickly and securely make the connection to a valve stem. A shame, as I've had good luck with other Campbell Hausfeld products...SUGGESTION: Put a ball head on the end of the flexible line instead of the current fitting; then one could get a secure (if hand held) connection and a gauge...
Works great, and nicely priced! - Edited -
November 18, 2014
EDIT 5/15/15: Dropping this from 5 stars to 2 stars. The gauge is not very durable AT ALL. It fell a rather low height in my garage and landed on the back blue metal side. I thought nothing of it until I went to use it next. The gauge is now at 40 PSI offset. Might be great for infrequent use but not to hold up for an avid DIY. Also, I was going to try and remove the gauge to fix it, but it's pretty much permanently attached, so I can't even just buy a replacement gauge. My wrench stripped the brass trying to remove it.---- Original Review ----Works great. Note: When pulling the trigger, air will flow regardless of whether the connector is locked on to the tire.To lock on, hold down the end latch, push on tire valve, and once firmly connected (you should stop hearing air leak) release the latch, and it will lock on to the valve. Then just pull the trigger for air!Great for hard to reach places. I use this on my motorcycles when the wheels are turned funny.
Don't be fooled by the 4 star rating.
March 29, 2014
The gauge is inaccurate reading much lower than actual pressure. To make it worse the higher the pressure the greater the inaccuracy. This could be unsafe depending on what you're inflating. As said by others, the clip on the nozzle that is supposed to hold the nozzle on the valve stem doesn't work well or at all. No matter what I did, I still had to hold the nozzle against the stem in order to fill the tire. Yes it's inexpensive and yes it can be made to work, but that isn't a reason to rate it higher than it should be rated. If you're willing to accept an inferior product because of the low price, then this item is for you. If you're tired of buying junk, and accepting mediocre products, then move on to one of better quality inflators.

Great compressor. My dad gave me a huge 30lb compressor, it took up way to much space, was way to loud and just overkill for my use of just keeps my tires inflated during winter and just blowing air to clean things.I researched several options and decided on this one, its works great. very light and portable, however I wish i had gone for larger one as this cannot top off all 4 tires (Acura TL) on 1 charge. Also the power cord is very short, I almost wish it just came with male end and let me plug in an extension cord. Overall very happy with it.UPDATE3 months later its dead. probably used it like 10 times. Amazon is amazing and let me return it still. Porter cable i will never buy your junk again.
ABSOLUTE JUNK! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
August 10, 2016
At 3 months old and only used a hand full of times the motor failed and started shooting sparks and smoke out of the side vent! While on the phone with the warranty department I was told to return it to sell for a replacement. Amazon will not take returns after a month on this product. Then they told me to drive it or ship to a service facility, both options cost a third of the price of a me unit. Don't waste your hard earned money on this hunk of junk just to have it fail in the middle of a job...
Not working after 2 years
February 6, 2016
Purchased unit 2 years agoHaving trouble with regulator - it will not hold air above 25 psi without releasing all air in tankNeed 75 psi for my staple gunWill call porter cable and see if they can advise a simple solutionWorked well before thisUpdated: Called Porter Cable. It needs service. Called the service center they referred me to, and they charge a $40 diagnostic fee. For an item I paid $110 for it is not worth it. Very disappointed, as I used it for under 30 hours.

Bought this compressor back in August 2014. About a month ago (11/2015) the unit broke while using it. There is some sort of leak and it is unable to produce any air pressure at all. I only used it about once a month while I had it.
Can't use to evaluate!

Air Chuck broken. Not sure if unit is good or bad. Decided to order new tire inflator and connector set before returning.
Serious QC/Design issue
November 14, 2013
After reading all the positive reviews and comments, and taking into account the three 1 star ratings before I purchased this item, I thought the Porter-Cable CMB15 air compressor would be sufficient for my modest needs to inflate car tires and occasionally blow dust off of things. As noted by other reviewers, the accessories are very cheap, but I was prepared for that and ordered the Coilhose Pneumatics hose and a 7-piece Milton connector kit, which are great.However, the CMB15 failed within the first 5 minutes of use while attempting to inflate my car tire. It failed with exactly the same symptoms as Tim-A reported: a massive internal air leak developed inside the shroud, and based on the loud hiss of escaping air, the leak is somewhere on the left side of the unit (definitely not the safety valve). No way to tell without tearing the unit apart if it is a ruptured tank or blown regulator or failed internal hose/connector. Thank goodness it failed immediately instead of months later on the 3rd or 4th use like poor Tim-A. Amazon's easy return policy saved me in this case - I opted for a refund rather than a replacement. Beware of this model; I should have heeded Tim-A's review instead of all the 5 and 4 star reviews!2013-12-08 Update: Amazon received the returned failed product and credited my account. I then bought this air compressor from Amazon: California Air Tools CAT-6310 at just under $200. Yes, it was almost 2x more expensive and weighs a bit more, but it's extremely quiet, has a much larger tank, and has a much more reassuring build quality. I am so far very impressed and happy with the CAT-6310 as a basic home compressor.

Fell apart the first time I used it.
September 17, 2016
This POS fell apart the first time I used it. While trying to push it down far enough to attach it to the tire stem, the really cheap tiny piece of metal that holds it in place, fell out. I put it back in and tried again but this time it popped out and disappeared into the grass next to my driveway. I couldn't find it even with a magnet -- perhaps it's tin and not magnetic? I can still use the inflator by manually shoving it down on the stem and holding it in place with my fingers. This hurts and will not be an option in winter when wearing gloves. The gauge is also not accurate when used this way. I recommend you stay away from this expensive piece of junk.
My first real Amazon purchase disappointment. Despite some reviews advising against buying
July 17, 2016
My first real Amazon purchase disappointment.Despite some reviews advising against buying, due to the clamp's inability to remain attached to a tire valve stem, I decided to try for myself. Unfortunately, those reviewers were correct. This clamp is poorly designed in that it isn't strong enough to remain attached as it is: 1. Too weak a spring to provide adequate clamping pressure, and 2. isn't long enough in the attachment to get more than several lines of threaded valve stem in order to provide enough clamping surface to hold. The tire valve core has a spring which keeps the core in place to prevent air from escaping after filling (of course). But that valve core spring is too strong for this inflator's clamp to hold, in order to fill without the use of additional hands to secure the inflator to the valve stem while filling- defeating the purpose of single-operator usage capability.I procrastinated on testing this before the return allowance time period expired, so now it's just a paper weight.
CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP

I bought two of these. Neither one lasted long. I am an adult male and there are no children in my home. This item is used strictly for inflating vehicle tires. I bought two because they were on sale and it's always good to have an extra. WOW, did not realize I would need it that quickly. Both of these stopped latching onto the valve stems. Bothe of the gauges were so far off that my one vehicle would not let me drive it till I took air out of all four tire and yes I know how and when to put air into tires. They were on sale and still I overpaid. I made my decision to but based on PRice and name brand. Campbell Hausfeld is (was) a reputable name. Apparently they have allow the name to be used on cheap imitations or they are no longer the company I grew accustomed to in the field. You could always Rely on them. NOT THESE. DO NOT BUY !!!
I like the continuous pressure gauge
August 23, 2015
I like the continuous pressure gauge, but the inflation connector is very low quality and falls apart every time I try to secure it to a valve stem. See attached pictures. I am unable to use it.
Not for "tire inflators". Clip-on connector is terrible.

Great concept for filling tires IF you have a compressor (and NOT a "tire inflator"). The input for this device is standard for compressor quick-connect type hoses. It is NOT the same connection as a standard auto tire connection; this means that, if you have a "tire inflator" pump that is meant to screw directly onto a standard auto tire connection, you will NOT be able to connect this gadget.Update 2017 April: Ok, I tried and tried for months and months to develop the "knack" for attaching this to the tire's inflation stem. I had this whole "twist of the wrist" thing I was trying to teach myself. It was hopeless. Then, when my wife wanted to start using it for her car, it simply would NOT work for her at all.I'm going to ditch it and try to find a good one with the "Universal Lock-On Connection" (the little plastic lever on the back)Also, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but this is the only device that I quick-connect to my compressor that leaks air like crazy unless you twist the quick-connect "just so". My guess is a not well machined male connection to the quick connect.
Two and Inflators and Both Defective
March 14, 2015
I rarely give 1 star reviews, but this one unfortunately deserves it. The first gauge I bought seemed to be defective. When the trigger was pulled it stuck in the on position and resulted in the air compressor tank being quickly emptied when the chuck was removed from the tire. I asked for a replacement from Amazon and was quickly sent a replacement. I used the second one for a while doing perhaps a dozen tire fills and checks on my F-350 and my travel trailers four tires. When I went to use it yesterday on our Town and Country it did the same thing as the first one and the trigger stuck in the on position. I realize these are not supposed to be used over 100 psi, this should not have mattered though as I only turned the regulator up to 90 psi to fill the truck to 80 psi, and was only using 75 psi at the regulator. I'm very disappointed in Campbell Hausfeld right now. I know they don't make the best air products, but I've had one of their 12V compressors for 12 years now and it still works great. Apparently their quality assurance department is now non existent. I attempted to use their website to get support or report the issue to see if they can make it right, but their IT department must be joining the quality assurance department on vacation since the links to warranty support and "contact us" were broken as well.
