Effective Emergency Tool

This is a review of: Slime 50123 Flat Tire Repair Kit (Digital)Rated the product overall as 4 Stars.Sheerness: 0 Stars – I do not understand the categoryThickness: 0 Stars – I do not understand the categoryStretch: 5 Stars. I am ASSUMING this refers to the hose I didn’t give Slime Overall Review 5 Stars because after using the kit, hubby let the person whose tire was fixed keep it should he needed the pump again. Therefore, I don’t know how the pump held up or if it still had the same pressure reliability for future needs. I also have no information about the tire repair process or how it worked with Slime Replacement Can. I’ve purchased several of these kits as gifts.My review is also my answer to a question and is included in Questions.My Testimony Review is a factual accounting of actual use of this product.Testimony: This product worked well on the tire of a Ford F-250. While traveling we saw a truck on the roadside with Hazard Lights blinking. The truck bed was full of furniture and boxes which were slowly being removed. The truck had a flat tire. My husband pulled over. The owner was never clear of the circumstances, but his spare tire, for whatever reason, was UNDER the furniture and boxes, and their destination was almost 200 miles away. We located a screw embedded in the center of the tire. The screw head was worn smooth to the tread and was not removed. Hubby got the Slime Kit and pumped air and Slime into the tire. Everything worked well. This tire took the entire can of slime, and the required tire pressure was achieved. My husband gave the kit to the man knowing the pumping feature was still valid. About 10 days later the man called my husband thanking him again. They made it to their destination which was 179 miles. They didn’t get the tire repaired for another 3 days and drove the truck around town. Final mileage on Slime was 209 miles. The man said he was impressed. He also commented he didn’t really notice any driving or steering issues with the Slime tire.My husband had no difficulty actually using the product. The power cord was adequate in length. The pump maintained steady pressure while using. The unit didn’t overheat or pause during operation. Yes, I recommend this product. Review written by LynKin

Always have on hand

A friend told me about this and immediately bought. A flat tire up in the mountains after returning to my truck. Easy to use as it airs it right up. The nervous part is driving a mile or two making sure the hole is patched and the air holds, especially on dirt roads. Don’t leave home without it. I drive 125 miles home on it. Tire store just washed out the slime and repaired it properly.

For Emergencies Only

I had an expectation that I could use this routinely as an air compressor, in addition to having the option of performing a road-side rescue with the Slime mode. The pump is strong and fast, the pressure readout is useful, and the controls are simple. It stores all wires and hoses within itself very conveniently. But the connector on the end of the air hose is a soft plastic, which you use to screw onto the tire’s metal valve stem. It leaks air as you screw it on and as you remove it, so it’s hard to remove it without losing several hard-pumped PSI. But the real problem is I can tell that the screw connector is going to get chewed up by the metal valve stems if I keep using it. The hose is connected to the Slime tank, is destroyed if you Slime it, and is replaced as part of a new Slime tank. So they didn’t build that part to last. Use this kit for occasional emergencies only (whether air or Slime) and I think you’ll be very happy. Don’t use it for routine tire pressure adjustment.

The portable flat instant fix.

This is an awesome product. If you go outside to your car and have a flat or anywhere for that matter, allyou have to do is connect the plugs into a 12 v car charging socket and you are back on the road again. You can use the Slime 50122 sealant which is environmentally friendly or just air (how cool). You will eventually have to go to the shop to replace your tire, but this product will save your life until you do. So easy anybody can learn how to use this product. Do not forget to leave one in your car if going on trips. A must-have!

Perfect for Lexus nx350 fsport

I have a 2024 Lexus nx350 fsport. The car manual shows an almost exact match of this device. It was supposed to be included with my car but was not in the trunk. Dealer told me they are missing from all the new cars. Was not sure why.

Any pump you have can fail – so I bought this as a second back up spare

I kept reading reviews and all these can fail if you are unlucky. Since it’s an emergency item, you don’t want to be that guy who writes a 1-star review (which can happen to any one of those pumps, btw) after it fails in an emergency. Since they are inexpensive, I just bought this one as a spare (back up) pump to have in the trunk. I do not plan on using the liquid – already threw it out. For a nail, it’s better to fix it with a tire repair kit using vulcanizing plugs – I’ve done it many times, even on the wall of the tire and drove another 25K miles on that tire with no issues. BTW, no tire repair shop would do that on the side wall of the tire – I think marketing is the main reason – they come up with rules to make you buy a new tire. And you can never buy only one – you always need at least two so the pair matches on the front or on the back of the car.

Remember this product expires

I haven’t needed to use this so who knows. Cars used to come with a spare and jack. Now I must make sure my slime is not expired every year. Product has 2 year life but subtract supply chain time. Must decode code to know date. Decode info on website incorrect.Curious how well can would inflate a tire with car weight on it. Same for this little compressor, but its another chance.

Good to have

My new car doesn’t have a spare tire and when I got it, many people told me to get a flat repair kit ‘just in case’. But did I listen? NO! Fast forward 4 months and I find myself on the side of the interstate with cars flying past me with a flat tire and no way to fix it. So I contact roadside assistance and sit there for over an hour until they can send a tow truck to get my car to the dealership for a new tire. With this kit I would have been on my way in 10 minutes. Lesson learned? Yes. I got home that day and immediately ordered this kit. I feel a lot safer now that I have it.

I didn’t use it

I didn’t use it. I bought it because I would go a road trip. So hopefully I will never use them. But it is small kit and I put it in my trunk.

Perfect!

This is just perfect for me and my Kia Soul. I have no spare tire so this is just what I need in case , I have an issue with a tire. This brand is reputable . This fits great where the spare would go. I feel confident in using it by myself. The directions are easy!!

Fits perfectly in the factory location on the Alfa Romeo Giulia

A much cheaper alternative than the dealer option and looks factory.

Title: Disappointing Experience – Not Reliable for Long-Term Use

I had high hopes for the Slime 50123 Flat Tire Puncture Emergency Kit, especially since I drive a Tesla Y and wanted a reliable solution for unexpected punctures. Initially, it seemed like the perfect companion for my trunk, providing me with peace of mind for almost 6 months.However, my experience took a turn for the worse when my tire picked up a screw in a parking lot, causing it to lose air. The device worked adequately for inflating the tire on several occasions, which was a relief. But as I continued to use it, I noticed a significant issue with the connector’s thread deteriorating over time. This meant I had to constantly hold it in place with one hand while attempting to inflate the tire.Things went from bad to worse when I decided to utilize the built-in sealant to address the flat tire. Unfortunately, the sealant failed to perform its intended function, leaving me in a precarious situation far from a service center. With damaged threads and ineffective sealant, the device became essentially useless to me, forcing me to seek professional assistance immediately.Overall, my experience with the Slime 50123 Flat Tire Puncture Emergency Kit has been disappointing and unreliable. I cannot recommend purchasing it unless you’re willing to risk being stranded with a flat tire and without a dependable solution. Save yourself the trouble and invest in a more robust and dependable alternative.

Perfect for car suv or truck

Quick fix!!! It will get you back on the road within minutes instead of an hour changing a flat or waiting on someone to come help change it!!! The least amount of time you spend on the side of the road nowadays the better.

Single-use bottle and inaccurate pressure reading but I’m glad I got it. 🙂

As mentioned in the headline, the bottle is only designed for one application. I mean, the BOTTLE isn’t, but the contents are. I purchased it primarily for a lawn tractor tire I don’t want to spend $60 to replace, so I expect to get two uses out of it, but…I have a $20 air compressor that is one of those best-purchases-of-my-life things, but it’s pretty big, like shoe-box sized, so I really liked the idea of having a tiny one like this to keep in the truck, which I am doing.So far I’ve only inflated the tractor tires with it and, also as mentioned in the headline, the pressure reading on the unit isn’t accurate – also a plus of my old one – but I can “measure” by pressing my foot on the bad tire until the give matches the good tire, and if I use it on my truck, I’ll just remove the compressor and check with my digital gauge – a little hassle, but whatever.I didn’t realize until I had it that the sealant remains a liquid, so unless you park on the bad part of the tire, it goes flat again – it doesn’t permanently seal the hole. Maybe all these “repair” things work that way, though, or maybe that makes this type safer for the tire? Anyway, it’s good enough.Since it’s meant to only be used once, the nice zipper bag the kit comes in doesn’t fit the bottle with the tubing and fill-cap attached to it, but the compressor cord and tube all fit into the unit itself, so you could just keep the compressor OR buy refills of the sealant and keep it all in the bag. That’s what I’ll likely do unless I find something better.

Poor inflator hose design

The act of unthreading the inflator hose off the tire stem lets 5-10 psi out of the tire. Exactly how much you don’t know, because the gauge on the inflator is no longer reading the tire pressure. For something that is pretty well thought out otherwise, package size, integration of storage, etc, you would think they would have spent more time on this core feature.

A sense of security, when you no longer have an actual spare tire.

I haven’t had to use this product, thank God, so any actual review would have to wait until I use it. However, after examining it, it looks like one of the best options for cars today that are supplied without actual spare tires.

Tire fixed!

We had a hole in our tire that the repair shop would’nt fix and they were wanting to charge us 1200 to get all new tires. We bought this and my husband did it and the tire is fixed. Weeks later the hole is still fixed and we’ve had no issues with that tire.

Works as expected… maybe better. Needs an illuminated gauge on the pump.

Tesla Model S has no spare, so this was a recommended product. Fortunately, I had it with me when I ran over a screw with my brand new winter tires. Use it as directed and it got me back on the road.Here are a few things I’d suggest:If you find the object that’s causing the leak (nail or screw), leave it in the tire if reasonable. Leaving the object in the tire does a couple things: 1 – Re-inflating the tire should be easier with the object minimizing the leak. Taking it out will likely create a larger hole and make re-inflating more difficult. 2 – The Slime should seal around the object as a temporary fix and the damage will be easier for a tire shop to locate. Ideally, you’ll want a professional fix for the tire.I took the screw out per the instructions and the tire shop ultimately couldn’t find the damage or a leak. So, no professional fix for my tire. But, it appears to be sealed and not leaking. So, that’s positive so far.Also, after putting the Slime into the tire and partially inflating, I carefully moved the car to rotate the leak to the very bottom of the tire until I didn’t hear the leaking anymore. This way, any liquid Slime would flow down and seal the leak. In my case, that seemed to do the trick.One thing about the pump – It worked fine and has a handy little light on it. Nice. But the gauge isn’t illuminated. I had to use it at night in the rain, holding my cell phone light over the gauge to check progress. The gauge absolutely needs to be illuminated.Good luck! Hopefully, this product sits in your trunk untouched for years…. But if you need it, from my experience, it works pretty well… so far.

Good Quality But With a Weakness

Bought this for my Tesla model three, which does not come with a spare tire. Product is a good quality, and well designed. And it works as advertised at least as far as inflating a tire is concerned. I have not tried the slime part yet.However, there is one significant weakness. When attaching the nozzle to the tire valve stem, air escapes as you screw it on. As a test, the tire pressure was 40 PSI. As I tried to screw the nozzle onto the stem, Air escaped, and when I finally got it, attached, the psi had fallen into 22. I tried this one more time for the same results.However, I did find a crude workaround. Namely, I left a unit running while removing the nozzle and in this case, I only lost about 5 pounds. So I over inflated the tire by 5 pounds and by the time I’ve gotten the nozzle off it settled back to the desired psi.Another possible workaround for the Tesla model three is to remove the hubcap as that would give better access to the valve stem.Otherwise, I do like the unit and works as advertised and is well designed, and appears to be a good quality

Worth It

Easy to assemble, use and understand. Even the bright green color is helpful to be seen while it’s working. My tire was completely flat, popped on with no problem and was filled in 10 minutes.

Works as described

Saved my son’s puncture last Sunday night (EV with no spare). Got him back home safely that night which is most critical, and it was able to stabilize the tire pressure, but only after 2-4 miles of driving slowly for the slime to spread and to kick in. Next day he drove the car to a tire store (tire maintained pressure overnight which was great). The tire store was able to clean out the slime easily, and patch the tire in no time. No issue with the slime impacting the TPS monitor which is great.

Hope It Works!

I bought this for my C7 Corvette which did not come with a spare tire. My initial concern was would the cord reach from the 12 volt interior plug to each tire. I checked and it easily reaches each tire. What I did notice however is that the air hose could have been longer. If your valve stem is at the top of the tire needing air the hose will reach but just barely. They should have made it an inch or so longer. I knocked off one star for that. I hope if I ever do have a flat this product will work as advertised!
