This review is from: Iwata-Medea Studio Series Smart Jet Pro Single Piston Air Compressor (Toy)

I actually bought this item from "Amazon Warehouse" used by "Like New" condition. When they say "Like New" it's pretty darn close. The compressor came in it's original box with all accessories in their original plastic package and the cords spooled up as if it came from the factory. I haven't yet seen a blemish on the unit itself. It really is in like new condition (and was $60 cheaper than a new unit from Amazon).

This compressor is great. I was originally considering the Smart Jet (non-Pro) however what pushed me over is that if you lower the air pressure on the Smart Jet it achieves a lower pressure by a bleed valve which just lets the air run out. The result is that the auto-shutoff feature of the Smart Jet is then rendered useless and the compressor just runs constantly. This compressor however has a true regulator and you can decrease the pressure without loosing the auto-shutoff functionality. It also has a "protective case" around it.

Relatively quiet compressor that has a variable PSI, a real one, not an airbleed.
The only thing that would make this better would be an air storage tank but that's a different model for a few bucks more.
