 Please ignore the other 1-star reviews...they didn't know what they were doing...this gauge is perfect! March 11, 2006

Please ignore the other two users that gave this gauge only one star because it only read 28.5 psi. I find it amusing, but sad, that they didn't realize that there was a protective sticker on the screen that read 28.5. If you peel off that protective sticker, then you get a nice, bright red backlit number displaying your true tire pressure. This gauge works great! The display is amazingly easy to read, and it is also simple to get a good reading.
Prior to owning this Accutire model, I had a 7 year old Accutire digital gauge that finally broke. WIth that old model, it was much harder to get a reading without air leaking out. With this new model, if you just push the gauge straight into the valve stem, you easily get a solid reading without leaking air. The old model's display wasn't backlit either, and I was truly impressed with the large, bright numbers on this new model. I'd highly recommend getting this gauge, as it has all the functionality you need, at a very reasonable price. I like having accuracy to 0.5 psi, and I never use non-digital gauges unless I have no other choice. I also tested this gauge with back-to-back measurements, and it was accurate every time. You won't regret this purchase...

This is by far the best tire gauge I've ever had. It lights brightly, easy to see even in sun and always visible at night. Accuracy is high, construction quality is excellent. Highly recommended!
If your gauge always shows 28.5 PSI... February 2, 2006

...try peeling the protective plastic film off the LCD display. The film is imprinted with a "28.5" to simulate the gauge's display so it looks more attractive when it's on the rack at the store.

As has been stated, ignore the 28.5 readings. Hold on, I can't stop laughing...
This gauge is easy to use and apparently lasts a lifetime. It seems to be very accurate as well. If you care about your tires and your safety, get yourself this maintenance free gauge to check your pressure often.
P.S. Read the instructions and don't forget to remove the "28.5" screen protector. lol
Easy to use and nearly idiot proof May 17, 2006

I bought two of these gauges, one for my air compressor accessory kit and one for my daughter's car. Calibration is extremely easy and the readings are in 0.5 psi increments. No more moving parts and messed up readings. There's no gasket on the stem where it touches the tire valve but that didn't seem to be a drawback at all. You don't even have to wait for the last reading to clear before taking another. Nothing fancy, just practical and handy.
