Decent for the money

Craftsman 2 hp Vertical Portable Tank Air Compressor, 33 gal. — 

I've had the compressor about 1 1/2 years and have used it for air tools, automotive paint spraying and general shop use. It's worked as advertised and held up well but... Takes a long time to recharge. When using a HVLP spray gun, it's running constantly and lastly it's very loud. Consider ear protection when using this unit in your garage where you are working. The 1/2" air impact gun supplied doesn't have much torque and will struggle to remove most larger nuts/bolts. The units CFM won't keep up with a die grinder causing you to let it charge up every few min. This can't be good for the compressor. It did run trouble free on a 20a circuit up to the rated 150psi for the entire time I owned it. I'm replacing it due to the noise and long charge time. It's fine for smaller jobs but don't try to run air tools on it for any length of time, the unit will run constantly.
