well, this is how it arrived on my doorstep, upside down and oil leaking out of the box, despite the big sign that said THIS END UP...

can't really comment on the compressor itself, since i didn't get to use it. sending it back for a replacement. there goes another two weeks of waiting. stang bought the same one and his seems to work fine. don't know whether to blame the company or the shipper - their box is pretty flimsy that they ship it in, arrived ripped and missing pieces in the corners - could definitely use a heavier weight cardboard.

that sux...i was in there once and picked up a 4inch air die grinder,...luckily looked in the box before buying it and the entire die grinder was snapped in half right through the main case lol...

i do have a impact hammer i bought there for 9 bux w/ 9 chisels...its still running lol
