Junk
By Alison S. 
Louisville, Kentucky
Purchased 06/24/2019 | 
Review Posted 04/14/2020 
Within 5 months the first capacitor blew, then the 2nd, then the 1st motor went out, then the next capacitor blew, now it consistently over heats. We have a commercial cabinet shop and consistently have to use back up air compressors. The manufacturer doesn't respond anymore and Air Compressors Direct is simply a third party seller that offers no support whatsoever. I am going to end up spending another 6 thousand dollars but this time it will be some where other than Air Compressors Direct.

First and foremost thank you for your purchase of the First Air FAS6U 7.5-HP 53-Gallon Rotary Screw. We apologize for the issues you have experienced with your unit. We will forward your review directly to the manufacturer so they are aware of the problems. Unfortunately, Air Compressors Direct does not have a technical team to troubleshoot these types of issues and they must go through First Air for proper warranty procedures.

Little Things To Do To Get Running But So Far So Good
By Colin H. 
Port Charlotte, Florida
Purchased 09/04/2019 | 
Review Posted 09/13/2019 
Seems to be decent quality, manual is very vague. No info in manual on the dryer. Is not made in US and fittings are not NPT, they are BSP. It does perform well so far but have really not put much load on it yet. And is louder than advertised decibel levels.
