Overall Auto Express rating

2.0

Price: £28.73 | Added: 12psi

There’s not much wrong with this neat Draper compressor that a little more pumping power wouldn’t fix. It lacked the grunt of the best here, but the overall package is still satisfactory, with a decent LED light that includes a red emergency mode. It’s stored in two open cubby holes that are easy to use and provide decent protection, plus the screw-on air hose was a usable length.
