Buy Factory-Reconditioned Ridgid ZROF50150TS 5 Gallon Oil-Free Portable Tri-Stack Air Compressor Now
When the compressor showed up at my door, it had taken quite a beating from shipping. Using a mallet, I was able to straighten out the parts that were bent. However, the compartment that holds the air filter was cracked. I ended up just ordering a replacement part because it was so cheap (cost about $5 plus shipping). Once I get it installed, it should be in good condition again. Now, this is all because the item wasn't packed well enough. Ok, enough about the seller and shipping issues.As for the compressor itself, I love it (this is why I rated more stars than not). I was able to fill the tanks, speparate them from the motor, and take it inside my house for some repair work. Quietest method. My kids that were sleeping could keep sleeping because there was not a motor to turn on. I have plenty of air in the 5 gallons (combined tanks) of air. I mostly used it with a brad nailer, but I did use the occasional direct air blowing to dust things off. I was able to do this because of the two air connections available on the front that are connected to the tanks. There is a third connection tied to the motor section had I needed another connection where I left the motor.
Anyways, I highly suggest this system. It has worked flawlessly so far for me. If it does fail or have an issue, I update this review. Todays date: 2/25/13Was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect shape. Have no concerns with the quality and saved $100 over anyone else.I am a contractor who has to have mobility in my set ups and this products gives me that, so far.
Stopped at 4 outta 5 stars because I just got this compressor and need more time to see how it will do, but if it is like my other ridgid tools I will expect the ssme gret results.
