Great For The Money
This compressor is terrific for running just about anything I've put die grinders, a sand blaster, air hammers, and every size impact/ratchet you can imagine and it doesn't fade at all.
I also personally like that it has a pressure regulator and two decent female air couplers already plumbed to the front. I have read all the previous reviews on here and also on a couple other sites about the compressor coming damaged, well I can say that mine came in perfect condition and that the box/ packaging was done properly.
To add on that note there was a neat shipping label that had some powdery die that would indicate if the box had been tilted, just another peace of mind that it hadn't received a rough ride getting to me.

Nice, Powerful
Ordered on-line from Air Compressors Direct. All went well. Had tracking # fast. Only took 5 days to receive. Shipped with a tip envelope on box to show signs of tip over.
The compressor is made very well, has a Century electric motor. A fairly loud pump, works great. I believe this is the same model as the DeWalt one.
Pros:Price, Exceeded Expectations, I'd Buy It Again, 0
This is a beast. The pump is loud, but quality is good. The built in regulator and two connections are handy. No leaks, fills fast and plenty of power at 17 cfm. Delivery was to my door. I would defiantly buy again.

Scott,
Thanks for the great review, Please remember to purchase the Maintenance kit. When used in accordance with the owners manual this can extend your warranty out to four years!
I bought this as an upgrade to a Puma 60 gallon 3hp unit that I had been using for 2 years. I do a lot of porting/polishing and sandblasting and just needed more air.
So far I've yet to keep this thing working no matter what I run, very pleased so far.
My only complaint is that the pressure switch that comes with the unit is embarrassingly cheap. You have a nice, well built unit and they cheap out on the switch. The specs wanted heavy wire and 60 amp breaker and the 8 gauge wire wouldn't fit the tiny spade terminals provided for the switch.
Other than that, it is a beaut!

Cody,
Thank you for your feedback. I'll make sure the folks at Industrial Air see your comments.
Thank you for your review. We are very proud of our product and love to hear feedback like this. In looking at the motor calculator online we show this compressor does in fact require a 60 amp breaker. However the motor calculator shows a wire size of 10 gauge to be sufficient, depending on the distance from the breaker.
I will tell you that even though the switch appears to be less than commercial we have tested the component thoroughly and it has a very low failure rate even under the most adverse conditions.
Your feedback is important to us and we will be looking into the matter.
I attempted to buy this compressor, two separate compressors were shipped to me. They were both tipped over and damaged. Who thinks it is a good idea to ship a nearly 6 for tall 500 pound top heavy item on a double stacked pallet with no protection other than a cardboard box, and apparently the shipping company doesn't strap anything down.
While they have my nearly $1500 and I still have no product a month after original purchases. I was told my refund would be to me today, which again was a failure. It's now past closing time and still no refund. I'm not impressed with much of anything that has taken place during this ridiculous drawn out attempted purchase!
I'm sure the air compressor does what it's supposed to but it's impossible to know if they can't even get it to me without smashing it first.

Garrett,
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience! We are working with the folks at Industrial Air to improve their packaging, and also with our contact at R&L shippers to improve service in your area.
I checked your file, and we processed your replacement order the same day you let us know about the first damaged shipment. We processed your orders as quickly as possible, although it does take a little while for a truck to get from Minnesota to Montana for 2 deliveries and 2 pickups.
Your file also shows that we issued your refund the same day (yesterday) that you let us know the second unit was also damaged. We emailed you that afternoon and let you know the refund could take 24 to 48 hours to post to your account since the notice has to be transmitted from our bank to yours, and your bank has to post the credit to your account.
If you don't see your refund by the end of business tomorrow, please give us a call, toll free, at 866-437-8002 and we will be happy to trace the transaction for you.
I understand your disappointment. We appreciate your business and apologize for the frustration you've experienced.
