Master Series - 2001 Model, April 11, 2001
This review is from: Emglo M800-HC4V 2 HP 14.1 Amp Electric Master Series Compressor (Tools & Home Improvement)
I recently purchased the Master Series model 800 as my first compressor. I was aware of the reputation of Emglo and upon inspection and review of the competition, the reputation is justified. According to Emglo, the M800 is the 2001 version of the top notch M790, slightly more capacity with all the power and great Master Series features. It is an awesome machine. The controls are simple and convenient. I've been running it indoors, and although it's not exactly quiet, it makes less noise than I expected. Also, it has yet to trip a 15 amp circuit (something I was concerned about). The finish and brad nailers I've been using hardly even make it run. This is a great compressor I would recommend to anyone.

Good, June 10, 2003
This review is from: Emglo M800-HC4V 2 HP 14.1 Amp Electric Master Series Compressor (Tools & Home Improvement)
Good solid and dependable air compressor. A little on the heavy side to be extremely portable but still acceptable given the power and capacity. A worthy buy.

Handy little machine!, January 6, 2002
This review is from: Emglo M800-HC4V 2 HP 14.1 Amp Electric Master Series Compressor (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this little guy to occasionally run my finish nailer, blow some sawdust around, and pump up a low tire every now and then. My review may not give you the info you need if you plan on using it hard. I will say it does appear to be built pretty well. My only problem with it when it arrived was a leak in the plastic line that equalizes the pressure between the tanks. It was easy to fix. Because the fittings use air pressure to seal themselves, you can pull the line right out of the fitting when there is no pressure in the tanks. It just slips out of the O-ring in the fitting. There was a tiny chip of metal in the fitting causing the leak, so I just wiped it off and pushed the plastic line back in. Works fine and the leak is no more! The controls are nice and easy to use, and the single handle makes it easy to carry the Emglo in one hand and the hose in the other when changing locations. One caution: Don't burn yourself on the hot intake head!
