> 24 hourThis little device is such a blessing around the house place. I dont know if it is just us, but it seems that every time you go to do a task in the yard, there is a flat tire blocking the way. Wheelbarrows, lawnmowers, garden carts, it seems that if they go unused a while they always develop a flat tire. This marvelous little machine eliminates the need to drag out the bulky air compressor every time you have to air up a tire. Its very loud, and not as fast, but so very convenient. It can air up a flat lawnmower tire in just a few minutes. It also gives you a reading of how much pressure is in the tire, so it is great to top off car tires. I look forward to being able to use it to fill up pool floaties this summer. And because it is so portable, it could be taken camping or to the lake to fill up mattresses and floaties on the go. I wouldnt want to rely on it entirely to air up flat car tires, but Im sure it would do so in a pinch. It would just take a long time. But the convenience and portability of this unit for other inflation needs makes it a very good deal for the price.

> 24 hourThe Kombella portable air compressor comes with a detachable (screw-on) hose, accessories providing air to bicycle tires/basketballs/air mattresses, usb-c charging cable, a velvet-like bag for storage, and instructions. The unit is nicely finished in a flat black aluminum body with the top portion in a shiny black plastic finish, that could be easily scratched. The screw-on hose has a brass fitting that screws on to the brass threads on the compressor unit. The hose is kind of short, so unless the tire valve is positioned closer to the ground, the unit had to be held while it was operating. The unit as a whole is solid and well-made. The unit has a built-in rechargeable battery, its charged using the included usb-c cable and a power adapter (not included). Unit was charged overnight and indicator on the display showed a full charge. Attaching the hose to the tire valve, and turning on the unit, the units display indicated the tires pressure. Toggling the top button three times, allows setting the required tire pressure needed in PSI. Pressing the center button starts the unit and it will automatically stop at the selected pressure setting when reached. Comparing the Kombella to my portable go-to air compressor, the Ryobi P747 18V, the Ryobi was faster - took one minute and six seconds to fill five pounds of air into an SUV tire (size 235-60R-18). The Kombella took two minutes and forty-five seconds to do the same. The Kombella was half as loud and was five times smaller in size than the Ryobi. The Kombella accuracy for measuring the air pressure was similar to the Ryobis and a separate air gauge that I used. After use, the Kombellas hose was slightly warm to the touch, but the units body remained the same. The built-in flashlight was adequate to light up the tire, but not bright enough for area/distance lighting purposes. The battery indicator light was still at full charge after pumping 15 lbs. of air. I find the Kombella to be a handy portable compressor to keep in my glove box and useful for adding air to my tires when needed. Rated 5-stars.

> 24 hourPerfect addition to my car tool set. I am always annoyed when the tire pressure alert goes off in my car and keeps going off for days until I finally find a gas station with an air machine that actually works and have to go into the office and ask or pay to use the machine. No more. This compact compressor hooks right up, allows you to set the pressure to the number you want and automatically fills your tire and stops. Small enough to store in your glove box or trunk. It charges using your car charger and includes a C USB cable. Works great on bike tires, footballs, basketballs and soccer balls. It is not real fast when using on a car tire, but it gets there and sure beats having to hunt for a working compressor. Certainly worth having on hand.

> 24 hourThis is one of the best portable air compressors I have ever used. As a woman I do not like having to go to the head station to put air in my tires or the kids recreational balls. This device has made my life soooo much easier and convenient. It wasn’t hard to figure out. As long as you know which needle and which gauge you need to use then you should do fine using it. My 75 y/o father was equally impressed as he has used car cigarette lighter air compressors and big air compressors. This can only be used on car tires, recreational balls such as basketball, soccer, volleyball and bike tires. Do not use to blow up swim rings or swim floaties.

> 24 hourI have owned multiple electronic air pumps--for use with my cars, bikes, air mattresses--if it needs inflating, Id prefer to use an electric pump. The problem Ive found is that many either require you to use the cars cigarette lighter port or Ive had one that looked like an electric screwdriver and its battery lasted only about 3 or 4 tires. This electric pump is TRULY WIRELESS--you charge it via USB-C port and it is about the size of a large portable charger (or about 4 decks of cards) and the display is a joy to read. Very easy to set different tire pressures and you also can select between psi, bar or atm.

> 24 hourI am using this portable air compressor in my car, though it comes with accessories to inflate other types of tires and balls. I had an old portable compressor that I had for many years that I had used a few times quite successfully and had no complaints. When I got a new vehicle I just transferred it over to my new car. But when I went to use it one day I discovered that most new vehicles do not have cigarette lighter sockets (or ashtrays!) Which was how this unit was powered. But now my old compressor was obsolete. This air compressor solves that problem in a spectacular way. First of all the KomBella is battery powered, but is very powerful. It is USB rechargeable, and comes with a Type C charge cable. The unit looks sleek, and is quite substantial. It has an LED display on the front and a keypad that makes it easy to see and control all functions. The unit can be set to operate in several different units of pressure measurements and comes with preset values for four types of typical inflation tasks (car tires, motorcycle tires, bike tires and balls) all of the pressure settings can be changed to fit your specifics. In my case, using my LED display and keypad, I selected psi for my unit of pressure measurement, the car icon for car tires and then adjusted the preset value for my specific tire pressure. I then attached the unit to my tire by the supplied cable. The LED immediately displayed the current pressure of my tire confirming it was low. I pressed the on button and the compressor began filling my tire. The LED display changed as the pressure increased, and the unit shut-off when the new preset was reached. It could not have been any easier! The compressor comes with all of the accessories you might need as well as a handy bag to keep it all in. And the whole thing is small enough to keep in the lower section of my center console. Brilliant! This is something powerful but portable, versatile but complete, sophisticated but simple, and useful for anyone. The instructions were clear and complete. My use is car specific, but I know others will find it even more useful for a myriad of applications. I am a big fan, and am really happy to have it in my car.

> 24 hourThis little air compressor is a life savior!! It has helped me several times when the weather gets cold and your vehicle tires need air. It beats going to a gas station every time!

> 24 hourGood for smaller items Basketballs, Bikes, Motorcycle tires, Blowup pools and car tire top off. I dont think I want to wait 20 minutes to fill a car tire to 20PSI on the side of the expressway all tho better then being stranded. Takes 4 - 5 hours to charge fully. Using the self-setting mode set at 100 I could not get full pressure it maxed out at 54 PSI filling a 5 gallon tank. It started out filling the 5gal tank at a rate of 1PSI / Minute 1/2 hour later I checked and it had run out of battery power tanks pressure gauge was at 40PSI. I charged it overnight then continued it shutoff about 20 minutes later when it reached 50 PSI I started it again and it stopped at 54 PSI. Thinking low charge even tho the indicator was still green I recharged then started filling the tank again it runs for 5 minutes the stops seems to max out at 54PSI tried again the next day still could not get more then 54PSI.

> 24 hourI was impressed, I recently purchased a different brand of pump from a box store and I was more impressed with this pump, this pump was at the same price point but had more settings Digital PSI meter Automatic preset settings for type of tires, bike, motorcycle, car, basketball, and a general setting where you can adjust the PSI level to whatever you want. I personally tested this on my e-bike which was recommended at 18 PSI I preset the pump and let it work its magic and at 18 PSI it shuts off automatically. Also fits nice and compact inside my ebike bag. I will revisit this review after Ive had it for a while but so far impressive, also carries adapters for inflatable rafts, basketballs footballs etc, and it has a Schrader to presta Valve adapter for presta Valve mountain bikes.
