No bad experiences at all. My compressor is probably several years old so maybe the new ones aren't as good as the older ones??
That could be I guess, I have looked in the last year or two at different ones. Have read the IRs have a pump unit made in China, have also seen the ones with an Indian pump. The reviews I have seen all say the pump is no good. I have an old Puma two cylinder portable I have had almost 20 years, was claimed to be made in the U.S. Runs the impacts fine but runs out of air for painting and is really weak running an orbital sander. Painting is ok on smaller projects but when I painted the inside of the cab had to stop to let the compressor catch up. I have read the Qunicy units are good but are a lot more money.
