We sell EMAX air compressors- they take excellent care of our customers. We have a good relationship with EMAX so any issues that arise are dealt with quickly and professionally.
We used to sell Hulk air compressors, but I'm sorry- we don't any more.

Long term poor product

Review Posted 08/08/2014
I bought this compressor in August 2012 . I liked it until June 2014 when the compressor stopped holding pressure. The motor is working but no pressure. Tried to check what I could, but nothing. My wife tried find the regulator but no luck. This compressor was only good for two years. It was bad idea to buy this product .

Review Posted 09/21/2012
The heavy duty rubber feet failed due to poor design. The black hose connecting the gauges to the tanks has a kink in it, so air would get through.
I called, talked to a nice lady at HULK, and she sent me replacement parts. I am sure she did not know that they are USED! USED rubber feet, USED black hose. Who is in charge of Quality Assurance? I don't know how to replace the kinked hose with the USED hose.

In the middle of framing my basement my old compressor locked up. The HULK HP02P005S1 lives up to the positive reviews.
It has good capacity and minimal vibration. It arrived on time and in good condition.
If you are looking for a robust portable compressor at a good price, this is the best choice.

Real potential

Review Posted 08/08/2012
I bought this unit for many positive aspects like it's very quiet, it has two outlets and a 2 hp motor.
But when I got it I set it in my garage and waited until I needed it, you know it was brand new and all, unfortunately I did not need it for 4 months.
Then when I opened it and tried it, it ran but would not build up any pressure. Now the chain store store won't take it back because it is past 90 days. I bought it was from a national chain store though, not Air Compressors Direct. Just make sure you test it right away.

So So

Review Posted 03/28/2012
I received this compressor and the motor shot sparks everywhere when I plugged it in. I called customer service and they had Hulk send me another one.
I was happy with how fast they resolved the issue but when I got the replacement compressor the entire box was covered with some sort of oil. Which explained why Hulk sent it in two boxes with the one on the inside wrapped in plastic.
The compressor had some oil on it. Not a big deal. I was just disappointed that Hulk shipped it to me in that condition when they apparently knew the box was covered in oil.
The compressor works great.

UPS and the Compressor
By Sam J.

Purchased 02/24/2011 |
Review Posted 03/18/2011
I ordered this compressor because after researching others this was the best choice. The price was great and having two air hose outlets was a plus.
I went ahead an ordered it. When it came in I notice that the side of the box had what looked like a patch on it. The crankcase case end was cracked and the air filter was broken by what looked like it had been dropped on that area of the compressor. I notified the compressor company about what I discovered and the customer servvce rep Natalie was a great help in getting me the parts shipped to me.
When the parts arrived, they were for an older model. I emailed Natalie about the wrong parts and she got right back with and said that I had a newer model. She re-sent the part and I received them in no time.
Replaced the parts and the compressor runs GREAT. It really is a great compressor and really great people to work with to make something that was caused by the shipping company right. They did everything that they could to make a wrong- right and I thank them.
Great Price, Great Company to deal with. I will be dealing with you again.

Best specifications for this price-point
By Larry

Review Posted 11/16/2010
The first one was delivered without a box, damage to the cord and a minor leak at one of the disconnects, but I spoke to Emax, the manufacturer, and they promptly sent another one and arranged for a pickup by UPS.
In fairness to Emax, it appears UPS unboxed the unit in transit, and that is when it most likely sustained damage.
The compressor runs smoothly and more quietly than most and appears to be well-built. The overall dimensions appear smaller than I thought they would be, and it's not too heavy for one person to carry.
I bought this unit to blow out my sprinkler system although the sales rep at Air Compressors Direct.com recommended the belt-driven model that was $300+ more. When there was still a fair amount of water in the lines, the compressor was able to raise all 6 or 7 heads in the series.
However, as the water left the system, the volume of air this compressor produced was insufficient to power all of the heads simultaneously. By allowing the tank to fill completely and then adjusting the outlet pressure to 50 PSI as quickly as possible, I was able to remove most of the water, although it took 3-4 attempts per zone.
We'll see if there are any broken heads or ruptured lines next spring, but I think the goal is to remove most of the water, not necessarily all of it. For all other tasks, this compressor seems to be a better-than-average value for the money.
As for the sprinkler project, if I had it to do all over again, I would probably buy the biggest tank with the most horsepower I could afford (on a 15 amp circuit) regardless of quality or brand of the unit knowing that I'm only going to use it once a year.

Great Little Compressor
By Tom
Houston, Texas
Review Posted 06/01/2010
I bought this compressor in November, 2009 & it's been great since!
I've used it to run a framing gun & 2 finish nailers, & it does the job nicely.
The line pressure knob has a locking screw which keeps the pressure from changing on you over time.
The tank capacity is a little small for an impact gun, but if you use it in short bursts it works OK.

Confused about color
By Aaron Newbolt
Summerville, South Carolina
Review Posted 12/27/2009
I received this for Christmas and I was slightly confused. The color is not green at all- it is dark gray in color and it says it has a 2.5 HP motor on it.
There are no specifications listed anywhere on the unit or in the manual displaying what the CFM is.
However, it was very easy to put together and I like the layout and design so far.
ACD RESPONDS: Thank you for the information! Since you didn't get the unit from Air Compressors Direct.com, you may want to call the folks at Hulk toll-free at (866) 294-4153 to check on the color and CFM. We are checking with our representative and will update our web site accordingly.
