Campbell Hausfeld MP6000 Tire Inflator with Gauge

Customer Reviews

Good, but you can get better for half the price

The problem is the lock-on chuck. The size and basic design make it hard (or not possable because of limited access) to use and it does not always lock on well. You spend time getting it on right.

For half the price there is a no-name brand version of this tire filler you can get here at Amazon or from Harbor Freight that has a compact clamp on chuck that is much easier to use and has no access issues. C-H chose the wrong chuck.

If only the dial was easier to read

The inflator is made well. My only issue is the gauge which is hard to read. The numbers should be larger.

easier to read but not necessarily accurate

The tire inflator works well. its proven easier to use than its gas station style predecessor. However, although it has finer graduations I have no means to ensure that it is accurate.

WARNING - Does not work for PSI over 100

This Tire Gauge has a warning on it not to use to inflate over 100 PSI. The product information stating "Gauge has range of 10-140 psi" is incorrect and misleading. DO NOT ORDER FOR RV USE!!!

I like the concept but it has a few flaws

The gage could be better but it is OK. When cliped on to the tire stem, it does NOT always open the valve in teh stem all teh way and needs to be pushed on further and held by hand. There should be an adjustment for this but there are no instructions to tell you if or how you can make this adjustment.

Overlall it is OK

Easy tire filling

This is a nice home unit , the tip fits on locks well . Then you comfortably add air.

The manufacturing of the unit is good for the price. its not junk and not too expensive - the only knock is the gauge seems to be off , more than a couples pound too. I was afraid of that but it gives you a good general idea then you can fine tun it with a air gauge ( BTW the accu-gauge tire gauge is very good , accurate - with in a pound and holds the reading until you release it ).

would buy this again , should be a couple buck cheaper but i am finding CH products to be very adequate for home use

Works pretty well

Tire inflator works pretty well. I noticed that my unit was not like the one in the picture; it was the MP6000, not the MP6000AV -- the gauge only goes to 100psi and so it formatted differently than displayed. Not a problem for me as I'm only doing car tires but if you have a semi or RV tire this could be some concern. The gauge is a little hard to interpret since the graduations aren't very instinctive to just glance at. I didn't have any problem whatsoever with the tire clip that some have expressed concern wouldn't fit on smaller car tires; it fit fine on an 06 Chevy Aveo and an older 90s Nissan sentra and I can't see how it would cause problems for any other car as it's very slender. Perhaps I got the improved design? who knows. In any rate, the unit is of high quality, no leaks of any kind. I used to use a 12V cigarette plug inflator but that thing is crazy loud and takes forever just to fill up a few psi so I've happily retired it to just emergency use. Well worth the money to get a good inflator so you can check you tires frequently enough. With the rising cost of gas, even a few psi can make you lose mileage quickly. This unit basically pays for itself.

Inflator works great. The dial is a little hard to read at first, but once I got used to it I've had no problems

Simplifies checking my wife's tires.

A breeze to use. The guage was easy to read and the bleed valve works a charm. Take the pain out of filling tires, buy one of these, use a quick-connect fitting and let your compressor go to work for you.

Works like a charm

Gave as a gift but seems to work like a charm. Can see where the chuck might be too big for some wheels but it works for a variety of vehicles so far (F350, Explorer, Focus, Prius, tractors, riding lawn mower).
