MICHELIN 12290 Digital Tyre Pressure gauge with Key Ring & LED Flash Light

First time it was not working then amazon partner replace the product and it's working in good condition allover it's a good product...👍

I keep it in my car at all times. It works well and is reasonably accurate. I'm satisfied.

Good Product. Bought in 2 nos. One product the battery was dead. Changed the same, now both are working flawless.

As the title suggests, I got no issues with the product but how it was packed. Above you will find a picture attached with my review which will help clarify my issues.In the picture you will find that the packaging of the product is held by two tapes. Now this in itself is not a problem. But the thing is when I received the product, one of the said tapes was torn. This is further evident when the picture is analysed closely.Now considering all this, the prudent thing to do was to request a replacement or recored a video while unpacking. But the reason I didn't do the above are, 1) Hindsight is one hell of a thing 2) I was in immediate need for the gauge as I was heading out.The saving grace for me in all this was that the battery pull tab which separates the battery from the decive was intact. And the screen protector too was untouched. These were the only two reasons that gave me a bit of confidence as to I was not getting a used product and I went with what I got.But still, seeing all this does leave a bit of a sour taste in your mouth. Other than this the gauge's good. The readings are accurate (in my opinion). The keyring is handy. Would love to see it priced lower as it's made in China. There's a bit of a learning curve when you start using it. And all that's left to see is how long it lasts.Note - Gauge deserves 4 stars. Removed 1 for the lackluster packaging.

Conveniant to use

Doesn't read pressure because the device doesn't even start properly. Display is average.It is not too big but there is no point in size measuring because you can't even use it without banging on the battery twice.Just go for a tyre inflator instead which is at a similar price point. You can at least get a spare charger and a spare battery included in it.

First the good points.Build quality and general feel of the product: Really well built. Though light, the plastic quality is good and should last many years.The attached hook looks tough and is made of metal with gloss finish. The spring of the hook feels sturdy.Accuracy: The readings matched with a Bergmann Typhoon pump so I feel the accuracy to be reliable.Packaging: It came in a blister pack which removes any chance of tampering. The packaging and printing looks good and attractive. It comes with a small booklet inside with usage instructions. A simple diagrammatic instruction is also printed on the back of outer package. A good thing was there was a slip of paper that broke contact with the battery thus preserving its shelf life. I think it was a thoughtful touch which very few gadgets come up with. So even if you get a year or two old stock, you can rest assured that the battery would still hold more than 90% of charge.LED light: The inclusion of a small LED is a nice touch. It has a sufficient throw and also has the added convenience of being a small torch.Battery Saving: The device switches off automatically after 10 seconds saving battery in the process. The device comes loaded with two CR2032 batteries, which are same as one would find in most car remotes, so availability of batteries is not an issue.Screen: The display is the cake here. It is an inverse backlit LCD which works well in bright daylight as well as in the dark. The display is also crisp with large legible digits.Now coming to the niggles:The measuring process takes a few tries to get it right without losing air. Initially, I lost a few PSIs while trying to measure the air pressure. The fit between the tyre valve and the meter is not snug, so unless you hold the meter in the correct position, you'll leak air. There's an angle (a slight tilt towards the user) that eliminates air loss as opposed to a straight fit. But that may vary from vehicle to vehicle. In an ideal condition you should not lose more than 0.5psi of air during measurement.The length could have been a centimeter less in my opinion, although I have no issues with the design and portability. At 9.3cms, the device could pose a fitting problem with some motorcycle tyres or tyres with spokes.All in all, I would say it is a good, well-built product with nothing to complain about if one can stomach the considerably high price. Given it is made in china, the price benefit could surely have been passed on to the consumer. I would give this product 4.5 stars.
