I already have a larger compressor for everything else (Nail gun, staple gun, etc.) but was to cumbersome for just installing baseboards. This is the only reason why I bought it and it works great.

I use this compressor in a traditional photographic darkroom to remove dust from negatives before making prints. With the small tank, the compressor turns on after each brief use to maintain the desired pressure--not an issue as it is not too noisy.

Easy to carry it around where I go. Once more I bought the compressor first time since I borrowed from my friend. I noticed his compressor took up the current (high amps). It should be little better to lower the amps about less than 10 amps surge. Most home have 15 amps on power lines. I am happy with what i bought. For any handyman, it is good one. And it is build to last.

The lightweight machine does what I bought it for, topping off tires and blowing dust off other equipment and hard to clean places. I tested the tank and regulator for several hours for leaks and found none, nada. The instructions are straightforward and to be followed. And the machine looks good, a nice handy addition to a homeowner's set of tools and equipment.

Good Buy
This air compressor is great for the travel trailer. Lightweight and powerful enough to easily fill my 50psi trailer tires as well as any other air needs at the campsite.

    Quiet, compact and durable. I bought this one to replace the same model I've been using for four years of daily use. Perfect for 18 and 23ga nail guns. The box design makes it easy to load up with the other tools and carry. I have used many different compressors and this is my favorite for light, on site jobs.

    It's quiet and recovers its designated pressure quickly. It's lighter to cary than the pancake compressors. I have only owned it a short time but have really enjoyed using it. It meets all my expectations.

        Can't speak to longevity. Have only used once. Purchased for motor home. Tires require 80 psi. Seems substantial.

        Not Enough Power
        If you ever expect to inflate tires or even just blow off dust from something, don't get this product. I bought it to keep in garage to inflate car tires and blow off grass from lawn mower (not the deck)...just peripheral area like top of deck etc. It does not blow after minimal seconds and does not recover pressure soon enough. I do not like to wait. I can't see it working well with a nail gun if you use it during a project. I currently own a 2HP/6gal DeWalt pancake but it is so heavy to move from the basement workshop.
