Great price for just what I wanted.
I don't know if the reviewers who complained about the noise have ever used an air compressor before but this one is not that loud at all! Also, oilless compressors always take a little more time to pump up a full charge. And I don't know how one could expect a 2 gallon tank to provide any type of continuous airflow for cleaning, spraying etc. I am a professional woodworker and this lightweight little guy is so perfect for pick-up air nailing work or where a small trim job is needed and I don't want to lug around even a pancake unit. This is a fantastic machine for small nail jobs and inflating things so I don't know what others are expecting. Also, I bought mine brand new on sale from Ha**** Fr***** for $55.00! But even Amazon's price is well worth it. My only tiny complaint is that I wish the max pressure was 120 instead of 100.

it works!!
this compressor is very compact yet it does everything that I need it to do such as car and bike tires and sports equipment. It was easy to assemble the hose and easy to use.

Does what I purchased it for
I purchased this unit primarily to put air in automotive tires. I was able to do so without issue, no leakage when applying the nozzle to the tire. I bought another nozzle for it to use for blowing sawdust off of sanded objects. It did this well also, although frankly a bigger tank would be better suited for any major projects, but this wasn't why I bought it. Regarding the loudness of operation as mentioned in other reviews, the first time out I made sure I was working in the garage with the doors up, and prepared for rock-concert volume. I had to laugh when I switched it on. If your idea of a rock concert is Neil Diamond, then yeah, maybe this unit will seem excessively loud to you. (No offense to Neil, you've had some great songs over the years buddy, and ear protection is always a good idea, but c'mon...)

So far so good...,
I only used this product a few times to inflate my car tires and a soccer ball...and so far so good. I am pleased with it. It is nothing more or less than what I expected.
