I'm one of those guys who over-analyzes EVERY purchase, and this compressor wasn't any different. The price from Amazon can't be beat, and the free shipping took only 2 days! It handles my Hitachi framing nailer and Hitachi sheathing stapler simultaneously with ease!I can not say enough about this compressor, though upon arrival I wanted to throw it off the bridge! Long story short, like several other reviewers, when the compressor arrived, BOTH gauges were crushed! Smashed not by UPS but by Ingersoll Rand when the compressor was assembled. Whoever the mule was who dropped in the motor/compressor unit hit the gauges from the top, bending both cases and gauge faces. Not immediately evident, I started adjusting the pressure switche before I got a flashlight and got down on my knees and saw the damage. I considered calling I-R to get new gauges but then realized that they'd just send the same $4 pieces of junk as originally installed. I decided to get a pair of "Ashcroft 200900 1.5 Lower 0/200 Pressure Gauge" from MSC through Amazon ($14 each). Once I get those in, I'll be golden! I've been using it with gauges connected with hoses 'til then and am very, very happy. Even if your gauges come unbroken, replace them anyway.
Works great for such a small compressor., September 22, 2010

I purchased this from Northern Tool when they had free delivery for nearly all IR products. It was also much cheaper than the price listed on Amazon at the time of this review.I have used this mainly for minor automotive use such as: filling tires and removing some bolts with a cheapo (read: air hog) Campbell Hausfeld air wrench. I have also used it with a blower to clean out my garage. Doesn't necessarily keep up with the blower nozzle, as I expected, but with a short break (10-15 seconds) it gets back up to pressure and I can continue. No problems powering the air wrench, but the bolts I was removing weren't on too bad.
It's a fairly quiet compressor, with the loudest noise coming from the connectors rattling, not the compressor itself. I would like to add one 3/8" connector but I'm wondering if I need to make the cover holes larger so it can fit. Overall it seems to be a high quality unit that can handle most DIY tasks without taking up too much space. I wouldn't recommend this for an avid grease monkey, but for minor automotive tasks it should be fine. It should also be able to run a couple framing nailers simultaneously without much of a sweat. Compared to other compressors of this style/size this compressor is quite competitive. Also check out the Senco compressor for similar performance.
