I've never had any luck with the plug-in 12v compressors, personally. Seemed like every time I needed to use them the 12v outlet in the car would fail at that exact moment.
The 3rd time that happened, I bought the first gen of Ryobi's 18v air compressors. It's a reliable piece of kit. That was 12ish years ago. Currently that one is in my wife's car and I picked up their latest generation for my car. I've used the new one a few times so far. Neither one has failed me yet. The older compressor with a full 2ah pack would fill a stock F-150 tire from 0 psi to 32psi, just. Recommend a 4ah pack if you have a pickup. Newer one seems more power efficient, but haven't used it enough to be sure.
Looking at Home Depot, it looks like there are battery powered compressors available in all your favorite colors. I would imagine they are all similarly reliable.
If I had to pick a plugin compressor, though, I would probably pick Husky simply based off of my history with the brand. They're not flashy, but generally make good kit.
