Worth the cost
Pros:
1. Solidly built
2. Pumps up to pressure quickly
3. Good workmanship (where it counts)
4. Compact
5. Oil lubed - should last a long time
6. Should be more than adequate for any homeowner application, and some professional uses
7. New ones actually 5 Gallon, and labeled accordingly
Cons:
1. Really dumb on-off switch setup - useless
2. With wheels already installed is designed to be broken when in transport without cushioning
3. Small 3" wheels not good for mobility around project sites
4. Average noise - not particularly quiet but not bad for outdoor use
5. Turns off at 105 psi (gauge readings)
6. Warranty for commercial use is only 3 months
7. Duty cycle is not specified nor mentioned in manual
Expecting it to arrive with the wheel/mobility kit ready to install was surprised when it arrived fully assembled. Of course the predictable had occurred. With just a sheet of cardboard under...

Meh
Mr Ellsworth hit the nail right on the head. My product also arrived with the wheels bent and unusable. However that was easily remedied with an impact driver, vise grips to bend back into shape and I also added 3 washers to act as spacers in lieu of grinding.
Big selling points of this machine for me were:
Made in the USA (GUESS WHAT???? NOT ANYMORE!!! MADE IN CHINA) Almost a deal breaker. I am still debating returning it for this alone since the product description states made in the USA
Price - Just a Benjamin, Jackson and some change shipped.
High HP for its size which provides quick charge time.
5 Gallons - Decent tank size for garage or small shop use (inflating, nailing, HVLP spraying, blowing off tools and workbench) while remaining very portable.
Attached Wheels.
2 Outlets.
Oil lubed.
Easy to read forward facing gauges.
The handle is a great idea but would be nice if it were extendable. I am only 6'1 and have to...
Here's More Info About It
I could not find any reviews on this air compressor. The specifications are nearly identical to the Steele Products SP-CE155QT which received pretty good reviews. But this one has the same CFM ratings and a bigger engine, 3.5 HP compared to 1.5 HP. I called Amazon and was told it has 72 dB rating. dB-ratings work on a logarithmic scale (not linear). So a 3-point difference in dB rating is substantial. Unfortunately that was a deal breaker since I work in environments where noise is a huge factor. If noise is not a concern, then save $100 and buy this one. The SP-CE155QT produces 55dB, has a smaller engine and the same CFMs, without a wheel kit.
QUESTION: It's made of steel and has a wheel kit, but it weighs the same as the aluminum SP-CE155QT?
72 dBs is pretty loud and I have questions about the weight which is why I gave it 4-stars. I bought the SP-CE155QT and gave it 5-stars in my review.
