I've never heard anything good about a cheap set of deflators. Nobody is ever satisfied.
I bought a set of Stauns about 10 years ago and still use them. I wouldn't buy anything but Stauns, but I'm the type to buy the nice stuff up front so I don't have to worry about buying crap and being upset.

I ordered Real 4X4 4 Tire Air Deflators for Offroad Vehicles. Does anyone have any experience with these?

I made one also. It deflates (inflates) all 4 tires at once to exactly the same psi.I made my own. This is Version 2.0 that I clearly cobbled together.
To deflate, I hook up all for tires, then use the release valve to deflate them tires at the same time, to the same pressure. It takes about 10 seconds per 5 PSI, and I just stop periodically to check the gauge on the regulator. I initially thought I could leave the regulator set to a specific PSI and it would auto-deflate, but the release rate is so slow it took like 40 mins to actually deflate the tires from 40 to 15 PSI, heh.
To inflate, I hook the coupler to one affixed to my rear bumper that comes from my pump. However, because I used a regulator valve on the inflator/deflator, I can keep my pump's line pressure at 90+ PSI, and the valve on my inflator / deflator simply starts to hiss when I reach target pressure. It takes 9.5 minutes to go from 15 to 40 PSI, and they are all at the exact same pressure.
30 psi to 15 psi in about 2 minutes. Back to 35 psi in about the same with the home shop compressor. (had to go to 35 to turn off the TPMS light, then back down to 30)
Cost with 100' hose (only used 50') was around $50-60.
