I'll tell you about that one on that review.* Great machine - 8 Oct 02 I read every review I can find on a tool before buying and did so in this case. The problem was, there were a couple `for' and a couple `against' this compressor which didn't help in the decision process (usually there's enough positive or negative comments to aid in making a decision). If you want to ensure you don't have this problem, buy a compressor with a cage around it. Heck what do you want from a COMPRESSOR! - Plenty of air* to shoot my 15ga nails and recovery time on the tank is VERY quick.* *A good compressor* to get you started. - I shopped extensively for a light duty compressor based on the following criteria: price, weight, and flow rating. It features the same motor and compressor as the PC 3HP twin stack model but is $40 cheaper and about 10 pounds lighter. Other than that what can I say - it pumps air. It is fairly loud, but I haven't listened to many other models to make an educated comparison. But that's another review. I have used it quite a bit for high air flow operations, such as blowing off dust / debris and even running an air chisel to bust up concrete. It often runs full time for 5-10 minutes and is able to keep up with air demand. If you are going to be regularly moving the compressor around, spend the extra. I actually ran a compressed air line out to my garage, so the compressor can stay put in the basement and avoid potential damage from moving it. * 4-year update * I have owned this compressor for 4+ years now and am still completely satisfied. I used a hand held, air chisel to break up the mortar joints. The compressor was operating at 100% duty cycle for 10-15 minutes at a stretch, but couldn't quite keep up with continuous use of the air chisel. As an last ditch experiment, I bought a 10 gal portable air storage tank, some extra quick disconnect fittings and rigged up a reserve tank in parallel with the 4 gallon PC tank. (yes, I am an engineer) My thinking was that I would run the crap out of my little PC and if it bit the dust, that was my excuse to buy a new compressor. I am amazed to say the PC compressor** ran flawlessly for the entire chimney demo and still works fine today.
*3 HP, 4-Gallon Side Stack Compressor* \| Porter-Cable CPF23400S**
	$466.00 by Porter-Cable One Year Warranty Convenient control panel has regulator, gauge, and two quick connect outlets Higher tank pressure provides more usable air per tank re-charge New high-pressure design keeps tank pressure between 110 and 135 PSI 3 HP induction motor delivers 7.7 SCFM at 40 PSI, 5.5 SCFM at 90 PSI found in CPF23400S's reviews: Porter Cable Compressor Review - My compressor arrived about 7 days after I placed my order. Keep in mind that your compressor does'nt include a hose, fittings, or a filter which is a good idea to extend the life of your air tools and a must to spray paint, so these items must be purchased seperatly. It's not too loud, it can fill up fairly quick, and most of all it provided plenty of power for what I was using it for, even when using a 100 foot extension cord.

*6 HP, 25-Gallon Oil Lube Compressor* \| Porter-Cable CPL6025**
	$504.99 by Porter-Cable One-year warranty Provides 8.6 SCFM at 40 PSI and 6.8 SCFM at 90 PSI High-flow regulator for more efficient operation of pneumatic tools Tank pressure is maintained between 110 and 135 PSI for more usable air High-pressure technology provides the equivalent of a 32-gallon air supply found in CPL6025's reviews: *Great Compressor* for Average Woodworker** - I held off on this review* because a had to get a replacement.*
*2 HP 14.1 Amp Electric Master Series Compressor* \| Emglo M800-HC4V**
	$560.00 by Emglo One-year warranty Features 1/4 NPT soft seat drain valve Rugged cast-iron cylinder provides maximum durability Integrated high-profile panel houses regulator gauges and universal quick couplers Powerful 2-horsepower electric motor delivers 3.8 cfm at 125 psi found in M800-HC4V's reviews: Master Series - 2001 Model - I recently purchased the Master Series model 800 as my first compressor. I was aware of the reputation of Emglo and upon inspection and review of the competition, the reputation is justified. This is a great compressor I would recommend to anyone. Handy little machine! - My review may not give you the info you need if you plan on using it hard. Because the fittings use air pressure to seal themselves, you can pull the line right out of the fitting when there is no pressure in the tanks.
