Excellent air compressor
Since Thomas stopped making air compressors I have been looking for something as good. I'm a trim carpenter and use it every day, i've had it for 3 months now and it still works great. The air filters could use a redesign but other than that it is great. At first it cuts off until it breaks in, so the first couple of days are a little frustrating. It's not everyday you can get an air compressor that can be used with 300ft of 12gauge cord while using 3 miter saws and a table saw. Highly recommend.

So far, a winner!
Used this for my plasma cutting setup for a project that I just completed. Has sufficient airflow for use in this task, and is much more quiet than my red pancake HDepot standard model that I've had forever.
As others have noted, packaging and shipping are hit and miss. The plastic cover to the control box was cracked upon opening due to the heavy thing shifting around in the box during shipping, but nothing else was bent or broken.
Works well, can run 2 hoses, controls are tight and precise. The starter switch/wire is a little weird and not really crisp when moving to the on/off position, but it seems to be fine.
The sheet metal that hold the gauges is a little thin. May not hold up to direct abuse, but seems again, to be ok.
The purge valve on the bottom works easily and well. Not much water has been coming out, but it is winter and humidity has been low.
Great for Upholstery Work & MORE!!!
So this is as quite as they claim it to be. I'm really impressed with mine but I've only had it for about 12 hours. I bought this because of how little noise it makes and because of how powerful it is. My intentions were to use this in my house to do upholstery work and then to take it out into my garage to run my new plasma cutter off of it. I knew this would be a home run for the upholstery work if it was as quite as they claimed it to be. And as I said it is! No worries about a loud work space with this compressor. Here is where I was truly impressed. When I hooked this up to my plasma cutter and it didn't miss a beat. My plasma cutter manufacture recommends 5cfm @ 90psi with a 20gal tank. This compressor is strong enough to not require the 20 gal tank for normal use. I plan on heading into my garage and really putting it to the test tomorrow. If it falls short I'll update this review. If you don't hear from me buy it!!! I contacted the manufacture after I ordered mine through...
