Why would you carry it in your car it's 240v 1100w At least look at the thing before condemning it, I've just done my van tyres at over 4bar, car tyres and all the
bike tyres without any probs. Sub £20 3years warranty what do you want.

Yes I did initially not realize it would not work from a 12 v source - I thought it might work off both. I would probably carry such an item in the boot of my Jeep for convenience.
I have an outdoor socket at the front of the house so considered buying one as the price is attractive - the list of 1 star reviews even discounting folk who thought it would operate an air tool was pretty pretty scathing. I have learnt that 3 year warranties online are often worthless again there seem to be issues with how Aldi fulfills the warranty - it would be nice if you could do instore returns.
I hope members here find they live up to their expectations or get a good one - time will tell. On the flipside I would never buy anytning if I took too much notice of poor reviews as they are often so subjective.

Would you consider the fact people are far more people are likely to leave a review should an item be faulty 21/1 star as against the item being 5 stars 110. I
wonder what the total # of units Aldi have sold.
I will try to refrain from bringing such items to peoples attention as it will make life a little easier. All you have done is condemn the item and Aldi without any
personal experience of the actual product for some reason.
If and when mine goes fizzzz I will report back immediately.

Just ignore me Moorey I am in a negative spiral today. I'm sorry for my comments I should do a bit more self editing.
FWIW I've bought lots of stuff that folk have recommend here that's turned out great.
