Low quality
The nut on the back of the handle regularly becomes loose and pops off during use. Many of the attachments have excess plastic that needs to be cut off and many of them do not fit tightly which allows air bubbles into the tubs.
Catch cup o ring is very bad design
Purchased this kit to flush the brakes on 3 of my cars. The fitting, pump and hoses work ok but remember this is cheap. The problem is the catch cup, they use an o ring to seal it and the first car I was able to get it to work with fumbling around. I did the second car about 3 months later and by that time the o ring has swelled and won't seal. I checked several hardware stores and this o ring is 46mm outside diameter, that isn't a size that's available. I returned to just warranty it but saw a catch cup manufactured by Lyle and that as a Teflon seal so I spent 15 bucks and now have a working system. Bottom line if you decide to get this kit purchase the catch cup and save your self a lot of headaches
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
chincy, gasket falls out and never works again
I used it to drain my brake fluid resolver, go to dump it and start bleeding calipers, gasket falls out, now it has no suction even upon putting the gasket back in
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
Not worth buying
I should have read the previous reviews. The hose is kinked and won't straighten. The gasket for the bottle was not put in correctly and was crimped. The gauge does not seem to work. Doesn't register any vacuum even when I plug the pump. The release valve leaks half the time.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
Didn't work for my Toyota brakes
Maybe this works for other cars or other vacuum needs than brakes but it failed miserably on my Toyota's brakes. You get 5 different right angle rubber connectors for attaching to the bleeder on the car. All were too large for my Toyota. One seemed fairly snug at first but the tool wouldn't hold vacuum. It would slowly leak all the air out. It wasn't the pump or bottle since it would hold vacuum as long as I held my fingertip against the end of the hose. On the bleeder it would lose 10hg pressure in less than 5 seconds. Crack open the bleeder and fluid & air bubbles will flow but the air bubbles are coming as much from the rubber connector as from the brake lines. Tighten the bleeder and bubbles continue in whatever fluid remains in the tubing. Get a bottle, some hose and a friend to step on the pedal for you. This one man bleeder won't do it for you.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
