I had been looking for sandblasting equipment to aid in a truck restoration project. Siphon units are not quite up to the task and many other pressure units are a bit large and expensive for weekend use. The BRUT 101H looked like an acceptable compromise. The unit arrived within a week and was easy to set-up. The instructions are rather brief, but covered everything I needed to use the unit successfully. The hood supplied with the sandblaster is adequate protection, you will want to use a good dust mask and possibly goggles to help keep dust out of your eyes and lungs. A word of advice, a 5 horsepower, 20-gallon tank, portable compressor is not up to the task of continuous sandblasting with this unit. For non-stop sandblasting, a larger compressor and tank are recommended.

I was very dissipointed in the delivery time. It was well over 2 months with many delays. The instructions were a copy of a over memographed copy. Very poor. The Blast Hood included was of a very poor cheap quaility. Not worth using. I found the pipe connection at the bottom of the Sand Blaster loose. The circular metal welded to the bottom of the third leg bends easily. It had been bent by tilting the blaster. Should be thicker metal.

I bought this unit in the hopes of sand blasting my truck frame. My first mistake was not screening the sand so I plugged the sand blaster up. After screeing the sand I still can't get it to flow. The instructions were a very poor memographed paper or a over copied copy. I think there is a backflush feature, if I can read the instructions. The small circular plate on the bottom leg bent easily. Should be thicker. The "T" connector on the bottom is loose and I can't seem to get it to tighten.
