Some gauges are designed to be inexpensive, and others are built to last. $22 and some frustration later, you've got nothing. I'd recommend looking at some high-end gauges.

That said, my <$10 Harbor Freight tire inflator / gauge with 3" dial, which connects to my $80 Harbor Freight air compressor, has been serving me well for about two years now. I don't know if it's accurate, as I don't have anything to calibrate it against. However, it "feels" accurate. If nothing else, at least my tire pressure is consistent.
