Title: Vevor compressor clonked out
Post by: PasadenaMike on February 08, 2023, 12:51:05 PM
That was quick. it only took four months for the unit to fail. Now I’m going to see how their warranty works. This will determine if I buy another Vevor or not. I think it’s the power supply but since it’s under warranty, I’m not messing with it. I originally bought it from Walmart with the extended warranty. However, it’s still under manufacturers warranty, so I’m going to go through the manufacturer. We shall see . I honestly think since it’s been sitting in my work van, and sort of bouncing around that that’s what could’ve caused a failure. Note to self if you are you going to keep a pump in the van for prolonged periods of time Keep a hand pump it never fails. I’ve had one in the van for years.

I hope and wish for the best results.

I do not think Vevor will answer your contact - email or other.
Hopefully Walmart will refund your full purchase price.

Please update your progress.

 8) Good information, Thing I do with my travel compressor is I got a hard carry on luggage deal used, gutted it to fit what I needed to fit and the power supply filter etc., are  all out of most harms way.

Sorry about your trouble but it comes with great news for me..
I purchased a YH through Walmart and bought the extended warranty as well..
I still have a year or so on the warranty and often wondered how good they would be for honoring it.
I've been topping off the occasional tanks from 3k to 4200. Figured that would be a great test while under warranty. So far, it's been flawless... knock on wood.
I have a Vevor (not under warranty) and a 12/110v OrCair portable (also not under warranty) that I rotate filling duties with so with the 3 I should have my air needs covered for a good while.
The Vevor is in the Red Shed near the shooting bench and gets the most work out just filling guns. I use a one gallon Folger's container for the water and temps never get above 120f. And that's mid day heat and humidity and several fills. If the supply container does get warm, just dump and refill it with fresh water.

Asurion refunded via Walmart gift card because obviously they can’t fix it. I bought a Tactacam solo camera and a few accessories:)

That is indeed good news. Glad to hear a company's word is still good these days. I have new found respect for Wally World.

 I returned a Thor LT that was defective, Wall-Mart lets you use Pay Pal now, in that case they had to give me the money.

If they don't stand behind their warranty. You can buy a power supply for it off eBay mine went out and I bought mine of eBay for like 20$ very easy to fix
