Loud, low cfm, low pressure, piece of junk

Reviewed by Dustin G. Haugh, 2010-01-20

If you read someone saying this is a good product more than likely they haven't used a compressor before. Before purchasing a compressor you should find out how much cfm you'll need for what your doing (cubic feet per minute). This compressor is rated at about .5 cfm @ 40 psi. A good compressor starts at 2cfm @ 90 psi so this is absolute junk. That means that it takes forever for this thing to fill up on pressure and it's LOUD LOUD LOUD!!! You will want to throw it out the window it's so loud. The next part you need to worry about is that it's oil-less. Your motor is not going to last. It's just a matter of time before you start having trouble getting this thing started. I work in a woodshop and it didn't take long for the dust to get into it, clogging it up somehow and making it hard for it to start.
Sometimes you can pay as little as 50 bucks more and get four times the machine. Don't worry about not getting the brad/staple gun, it's junk and you can go to grizzly.com and get one for thirty bucks that you'll actually be able to use.

Somewhat better than bottom end portable compressors

Reviewed by Scotsmanbully, 2009-09-18

I bought this compressor to keep my car and bike tires properly inflated. This is a marginal product and only slightly more convenient than a hand pump (bikes) and a service station (car). First, the attachment for inflating tires fits the hose very poorly and leaks air like crazy. This creates a problem when you're trying to inflate something as the compressed air resevoir is losing a lot of its pressure just due to the leakage. Also, this compressor will barely reach 100 psi and, due to the leakage, it will lose that pressure very quickly. That's not such a big deal for car tires that don't inflate to anywhere near that pressure, but it's a real pain in the neck for inflating bike tires. The only way I can inflate my 85 psi tires is to do it iteratively and even then I can just barely get up to 85 psi. Several of our bikes call for up to 100 psi and there is no way this compressor will inflate that high because the leakage runs down the pressure before the tire is inflated. Not only does the inflation attachment leak it's pretty poorly designed and doesn't fit over the inflation stem on a tire very well which further aggrevates the inflating process. Oh yes, the onboard pressure guage is about 20 psi inaccurate so you will want to use a separate guage to measure the psi of what you're inflating. The tool kit that comes with this is a sorry example of the worst of Chinese manufacturing; very low quality stuff. Finally, the cord is very short and you will most likely need an extension cord. I'm considering just buying a good bike hand pump and using this compressor for the car.

Inferior compressor

Reviewed by K. Presnell, 2009-07-16

This is not a good quality compressor. I expect more from CH. The air feeder lines from piston are car fuel lines and not air hoses. The two feeder hosed rub against each other (due to poor design) because of vibration and will wear a hole in each other. I have had this compressor for 1 year and 2 months, used it 5 times and now the hoses have worn through and air leaks out. What a piece of crap. I spent 3 hours fixing this, cutting away crappy fittings, reinstalling air hose and clamping off. Do not buy this.

For my purposes

Reviewed by D. Halbach, 2009-04-24

this has worked well. Use it around the house with my Ridgid brad nailer, haven't tried the included nailer. It's light, easy to carry around, even for those small jobs where you don't want to carry much. No problems. Loudness is in the ear of the beholder but I certainly don't expect quiet from a compressor so would say this is average in that regard. [...] So far so good would be my evaluation.

It works, but I don't like this compressor.

Reviewed by Lucas Scharf, 2009-03-25

I purchased this air compressor at a local big box store. I'm a homeowner and a woodworker, so I use this air compressor a couple of times a week. I'm not satisfied with it.

Here are the issues I encountered:

* The box implied that it could deliver 90 PSI. It can, but the unit it really designed to keep the pressure between 80PSI and 100PSI. When the pressure goes down to 80PSI, the motor starts and pumps the tank back up to 100PSI.

* I discovered after purchasing this unit that I like my bike tires at 100PSI so, after inflating each bike tire, I have to let air out of the compressor so that the compressor will run back up to 100PSI before inflating the next tire. Since I ride a bicycle regularly, this is not the air compressor for me.

* The brad-nailer / stapler included with this unit failed after 2-3 clips. My guess is that it was a problem in the safety mechanism, but I didn't investigate too deeply. Also, the easiest way to adjust the depth that the staples go to is to adjust the pressure regulator on the air compressor, and depth varies depending on the state of the compressor. I've been much happier with the Ridgid stapler that replaced it, since the Ridgid stapler drives the staples to a consistent depth, regardless of small variations in the air pressure (the included stapler isn't terribly consistent about the depth to which it drives staples).

* This compressor is really noisy. The little pump runs fast with a small cylinder, and it makes enough of a racket that I either put in earplugs before starting the compressor -- or plug it in and run to another part of the house while it pressurizes itself. It's almost as noisy as my table saw, and it takes its time coming up to pressure -- especially if you empty out the pressure-tank before storing it.

* It's easy to tip over, especially when inflating car tires.

That said, this device does work. It's also light enough to carry around easily with one hand. We built 40 feet of garden fence out of 1x2's using the Ridgid stapler this weekend, which means that we drove around 750 1-1/4" staples into cedar -- and this unit powered the whole thing, and it was able to keep up if we didn't staple continuously. I've also used it to run other small air tools, inflate car tires, and the other jobs that you'd expect to do with a small portable air-compressor around the house. But this unit drives me crazy with it's slow/noisy performance, and the quick breakage of the nailer/stapler makes me skeptical about its long-term reliability -- so I plan to replace it with more powerful compressor at the first opportunity.
