This is a step up from the smaller portables that I have been using.
The machine is very quiet. The pressure switch and parts are as good as I expected and much better then I had read about while researching the internet for this compressor. The bleed valve is the exception. Typical knurled thumb screw... I removed it and replaced it with a 90 degree elbow and a ball valve, which is my preferred method for clearing the moisture.
There was plenty of room under the tank to handle that. It came with oil already in the pump. It is rated right at 20 amps, 120 VAC, so make sure you use the proper wiring and outlet.
You are going to be hard pressed to find a portable compressor in this size that has the CFM that this one does. I would not hesitate in recommending this to other folks.
