The compressor works great! I only wish it came with a bigger front tire. The tanks often hit the ground when moving it.

5.0 out of 5 stars best and fastest compressor I've ever used!, November 24, 2011

I've owned this compressor for 3+ years and love it! It's completely mobile, not too loud, easy to maintain, and extremely fast! Takes just over a minute to reach 120-140psi which is around where I keep mine.

I find the tire to be efficient. Only touches once in a while. Also have never split use up to 8 guns or whatever but the guy that had it before me was a contractor and loved it as well.

I've never had it not start within one to two pulls (rarely three) with yearly maintenance and Sta-Bil in the tank. I also drain it every use.
