Steve's Recommendation
This unit is a cost-effective choice for the occasional user.
Light weight and easy to transport, it's great for light stapling, brad driving, or small airbrush jobs.
The folks at Campbell Hausfeld even included built-in tool storage so everything you need travels with the compressor instead of being left behind.

Fake Reviews
I like the fake reviews that offset the real reviews.
ACD RESPONDS: We don't post fake reviews.
Here's the way it works: once a review is posted, a real, live human reads it. If it contains a complaint or problem, the first thing we do is check to see if it's one of our customers who needs help.
If it is, then the review is forwarded to Customer Service so the problem can be solved as quickly as possible.
If it isn't, then we check our database to see if we have other reports about the same thing. If it's a problem we can work on with a manufacturer, we do. If the problem is not fixable, or the product is junk, we pull the product off our website.
We don't post reviews from folks that bought the product someplace else, or that we can't verify- that is only fair to our vendors, and good business sense. General issues should be addressed to the manufacturers directly.

Amazing Air
As a college student, I took a job in the paint department at a major home improvement retailer. This was my first brush with the power of air compressors.
These machines power paint sprayers, sand blasters, and a variety of other tools.
But now that I am a college graduate, and struggling artist...I fully appreciate the power of air.
I not only maintain my vehicle and do the upkeep of my house and property, but I create magnificent sculptures and large pieces of art with my Campbell Hausfeld air compressor.
I absolutely love using my grinder to "polish" my sculptures, and using my gravity feed paint sprayer to airbrush my "canvas".
This amazing air tool has redefined my idea of how to create art.

Not too long ago I had an issue with my old air compressor, and decided it was time to get another one.
I was told about this one but I didn't believe it would meet my needs. Wow, was I wrong- for the price I couldn't beat it!
Never once did it lag on me during my project rebuild, it always had the right amount of airflow and never once sputtered.
Yes, I know there are bigger, better air compressors; but since I was doing this car rebuild on a budget it was by far the best choice.

Not Worth The Money And Time
I bought this unit at a store, went directly home with my new purchase and hooked every thing up. There were more air leaks on this unit than a chain link fence.
The gauges and the tank leaked. After spending an hour or so tightening every thing I could, I was able to minimize the escaping air, but I could never get the pressure up to full.

Campbell Hausfeld 13-Gallon (Direct Drive) Air Compressor Review
JUNK...PERIOD
This compressor does not even have 10 total hours of operation on it, but has been repaired once, and is now in need of repair again.
It is only used in my garage for occasionally filling my car tires or kids toys.
Naturally, it's out of warranty.

Campbell Hausfeld 13-Gallon (Direct Drive) Air Compressor Review
By far, our best-selling direct-drive air compressor for "in the garage."
Features a very powerful motor, capable of running the vast majority of commonly used air tools.
Plus, the 13-gallon tank is just large enough to run some continuous use tools (like spray guns and sanders). Yes, a large tank would be better, but this one is great if you lack the space.
Lastly, ACD also offers a RECONDITIONED version for $100 less. The recon is great option to get a great compressor at a great price.
