Had to use it once and it works as intended
This is by far the smallest plugger that I've seen online, so it was nice to have in my motorcycle saddlebags for a just in case item.I got a nail in my rear tire on my commute which led to a slow leak. Luckily I was able to use this and plug up my tire at my work's garage. The ream worked well, but the plugging was more difficult to use.The plug is incredibly thick, and there's no description on it so I don't know if this is the one that's meant to be used with rubber cement, and it's hard to tell about the quality of the plugs. When plugging the tire, I had to push super hard, and I always had the fear that the shaft of the plugger would go through the end and stab my hand. That didn't happen of course, but the design of it definitely gives that fear.Since the kit has space inside, I would put gloves, single use rubber cement tubes, and replace the plugs with some higher quality ones. These are all small nitpicks. Overall, the product is nice and priced well.

These are a no brainer is space is an issue
I love this tire plugger. I give them as gifts and keep one in every vehicle. The small size is easy to store. Once you put it together (which only takes a few seconds) it feels sturdy and ergonomic. I have only had to use once so far and it worked perfectly. I highly recommend picking a couple of these up especially if you have a motorcycle.

This is a pretty well made tool
I have not used it yet and hope to never have to.I was surprised when I held this in my hand. It has a surprising heft for its size and given that the handle/case is aluminum. You could probably drive over it with a pickup truck and do nothing but scratch it up.I measured the wall thickness and it was 2.75 mm (7/64 inch). Total weight is 106 grams (3.7 oz) with the 5 included plugs and 90 grams (3.2 oz) without the plugs.The reamer and the plug needle are made of chromed steel. When assembled as a tool there is absolutely no slop with the reamer or needle. The handle is pinching them tight.The metal machining is outstanding. Everything from the knurling on the outside to the cut threads and chamfers on the inside are top notch.It's even go just enough extra room to put in a utility knife straight razor blade and a small bottle of plug adhesive if you want.The one weakness is that it is not dust or water tight and dust can get in and gunk up the plugs. But... some electrical tape can fix that.It's an absolutely beautiful design and is well made. It makes me feel bad to actually treat it like a tool and strap it to my dirt bike where it is going to get scratch up and worn.

Well designed, compact and easily packable.
Very nicely designed tool. Compact with no sharp points to harm your other gear. Seems to be made well leaning towards light weight. The aluminum tube appears thick enough to work. The reamer and theading tool seem strong enough as long as you're careful during use. I am sure it can be bent or hit hard enough to dislodge it from the slot.I have not used this tool on my motorcycle yet. It should work, and I will be carrying it going forward. Leaving off one star until I have used it. But assume it will eventually get the 5th star.I have logged about 250,000mi on three bikes over 20 years. I have plugged 4 flats on my bikes, and a couple of other bikes during that time. This type of tool is not used all that frequently, but hopefully always on the bike. So storage is key, and this tool delivers.

Compact.
Best available. Ingenious design. Reamer could be sharper. Both bits could fit tighter. Still, it's a great tool for the road.

Compact for my piece of mind
I ride a motorcycle and have very limited storage space. I dread the idea of getting a flat tire out in the middle of BFE. This small compact kit is perfect for my needs if it ever happens. Can repair in a jiffy and go. Definitely a must for any motorcycle ride or car who need to fix a flat on the go. I have it stored in my little crash bag along with my portable air pump. Definitely would recommend to anyone.

Very cool piece of kit
Been using this kit for the last 3 years on my motorcycle riding RTW through Latin America Europe and now Asia. Great piece of kit after trial by fire living on the trail for the last little bit 🏍️💨🌄🤙

Great Portable Kit
Small and compact enough for a motorcycle bag. Hopefully, I never have to use it but is a great kit to keep you going.
