Power cord

Review Posted 07/27/2025 
I haven’t tried it yet; I am still waiting for the outlet to be wired from my breaker box. Was this supposed to come with a power cord, because I didn’t get one?

Great Value For A DIYer's Money
By George M.

Purchased 06/06/2025 | 
Review Posted 06/27/2025 
I wasn't sure if I wanted to go this big, but I am glad I did. The Mega compressor is an upgrade to my 26-gallon HD brand compressor I had for years. After looking at a number of other compressors out there, I went with Mega because of the capabilities it has and the price it came with. It was a no-brainer. Shipping was super fast, and no problems with the delivery. The compressor arrived perfectly. The service at PED was great too, which is why I chose to purchase here.

Best compressor per dollar.
By Steven

Review Posted 06/04/2025 
I purchased this air compressor. 5HP motor and 60 gallon tank. It is a true 5hp continuous duty motor. And in my experience has no problem working all day. Actual CFM is 16 which is crazy good for the price. This is the cheapest way to get continuous duty 16cfm. Came with oil and air filters. For all the people looking for an air compressor an are underwhelmed with the other options this is the one.

Mega 5 Hp 60 Gal. Air Compressor
By Andy N. 
New York
Review Posted 06/03/2025 
The Mega 60 gal. 5 HP seems to work great at this time. Puts out almost twice as much air as my old, same size compressor at 90 psi, and should save a lot of time not waiting for the compressor to keep up. Hopefully, I can say this after I start working on it a lot harder to finish up my car.

MEGA 5 hp Air Compressor

Review Posted 05/18/2025 
I have only had the air compressor for a few weeks. So far, I am very impressed with its performance. It is a lot quieter than other compressor I have experienced of this size and it fills quickly. Overall quality is good.

Best Value Compressor
By Adam J. 
Alabama
Review Posted 05/09/2025 
I looked at several compressors for about a year and determined this was the best bang for the buck without buying used from the marketplace or something. I am very happy with my decision to buy this one new from ACD. The compressor kicks butt and is so nice to have plenty of air when you need it. It is the perfect size to tackle anything from DIY to AUTO maintenance. I'm glad I didn't get anything smaller than 60 gal. The tank holds perfect pressure when not using it, without kicking on and off, so it saves power. This is a must have for your shop or home. Delivery was also flawless and professional. You won't regret this purchase, and no doubt will get many years service from it.

This item replaces what could easily cost twice as much, and it does the same thing and takes up less space. Unless your application needs more detailed performance, this will work for you
