Overall the compressor is OK. The problem that I have is, the impact wrench that comes with it is worthless. I have tried to use it twice to take tires off my truck. I had to break the lugs with another wrench and then use the impact wrench to finish it. I know that the tire store does not put over 100 lbs of torque. Pretty much useless impact wrench if it want take the lugs off my truck. And the thing that you use to put air in your tires, leaks constantly.

I bought this compressor back in 5/03, it worked ok for about 4years. Now it will not pump up past 20 psig and has not been used that much, [less than 100 hours],.I used it around my barn to air up tires and sometimes run air tools. The cylinder that pumps up the air pressure is plastic and the ring on the piston is already worn out and scared the cylinder. I am going to try and get part to repair. I will let you know how that goes. Oh, the maint. agreement ran out in 5/07. Do but this compressor unless you will only need to use it for a short while.
