Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Price: £29.99 | Added: 13psi

This Sakura compressor is noticeably smaller than our top three and comes in a nylon, drawstring bag. It’s handy for keeping everything together, but offers limited protection. It was a touch off the pace in the pumping test, but we liked the accurate gauge with presets on the top of the unit which made it easy to read as it worked. Storage could be better, but the five LED worklights worked well.
