While the Sharp air conditioner was a dud, (I'm sure they're not all that way) I was impressed at how simple Amazon has made the remedy. So the experience was a negative for Sharp but a positive for buying from Amazon.

- Oil lubricated pump improves durability

I looked at all kinds of compressors but I needed one that was portable, dependable, and could take the abuse of being moved around a job site and across country.
After due dilligence, I decided on this one.
I clean the air filter, check the oil now and again and it has never refused to preform.
It's a little hard to get started on really cold days, but aren't we all.
Truly, one of those tools that stand the test of time.
Buy Emglo Air Power AM782HC4V 1.1 HP Continuous 4 Gallon Electric Hand Carry Compressor Now
I bought a used rental unit from my job 4 1/2 years ago and it has been great. It will run an impact, die grinder, drill, cutoff tool and more. It does need time to recover so it will not efficiently run them continuous. It is great for inflating tires and other small jobs and is capable of other larger jobs. Overall the unit is over 11 years old and I have had to put a capacitor and power switch on it an no other problems. Good for the novice or the professional. Also is small enough to provide mobile air power which is a plus.I just bought a used AirMate two tank 4gal for $75.00 (it is the 1.5 HP, not the 1.1) and feel redeemed after spending $125.00 (to much money) on a used Dewalt/Emglo One 4-1/2gal tank unit that blows a little oil.In comparing the two to each other, I see no difference in motor or compressors and the only difference is in the one or two tank configuration and one compared to two line hook ups. As stated on some reviews of the one tank version, it has problems with pressure valve adjusting (sticking or not working) as does the old unit I bought.
All in all, if I was to have a choice between the one or two tank versions new, I would buy the
two tank version hands down. I don't know what went wrong with the one tank configuration, but it could be the extra money they had to spend on dual hook ups; I just don't know, but this is the configuration that is supposed to be the hot shot go to construction compressor. NOT
Also, the cheapest place I could find for the pump rebuild kit was Jacks Small Engines at about
2/3's what anyone else is asking, but found them after I had made the purchase; Figures!

I bought a Emglo air mate the 1 1/2 h.p. at a garage sale and it has been great until I burnt up a starter capicator.Burnt right in the spot where the info about the capicator is. Could anyone help me with the info so I can buy one locally?I've owned this model Air Compressor before. It is tops.Not so sure about the service. For some reason two were shipped, of course I only needed one. But Amazon "sold" the sale to King Tool, so Amazon's famous return policy did not apply. After testy exchanges with Took King I ended up keeping both compressors and bartering one to a friend.
In the future, I'll buy larger ticket items where I can carry them out of the store

Buy Milton 715BK M Style Quick Coupler: 1/4-Inch Female Coupler Now
MILTON BY FAR MAKES THE BEST COUPLERS OUT THERE. FIRST I FOUND THEM HARD TO FIND.SECONDLY THE PRICE IS THE SAME AS THOSE INFERIOR BRANDS..JUST USE ALITTLE TEFLON TAPE ON YOUR MALE END PLUGS AND YOUR READY TO GO.YOU'LL FIND YOUR COMPRESSOR DOESNT GO ON AS MUCH, SINCE YOU HAVE (NO MORE AIR LEAKS)...........Read Best Reviews of Milton 715BK M Style Quick Coupler: 1/4-Inch Female Coupler Here
I did not realize that there really is a difference in quick connects.I just upgraded to a 60 gallon Ingersol Rand compressor so I changed out a number of items that I was using with my old 20 gallon compressor. Initially (when I bought the 20 gallon comp) I had gone to my local Home Depot and picked up some of the fittings and couplers I would need. They served well until the upgrade. Reading some of the reviews for Milton I thought I would try their fittings and couplers. After they arrived I put a male connection onto one of my new spray guns and then connected the hose (with the Home Depot coupler). Didn't work! The old coupler wouldn't accept this Milton. Surprise, surprise!
So, since I had purchased an additional male and female coupler, I changed the old one out to the new. Worked fine as should be expected since they are now both Milton. Funny thing is, I still had a few air tools laying around with the older style (Home Depot) fittings attached and the Milton would accept them with no problem.
Now for the good part. . . .I looked down the barrel of the Milton fittings along side the HD fittings and the inside diameter of the Milton is larger than the Home Depot fittings! Another surprise. I just thought all fittings (3/8") would be the same. I now know better and the Milton is a MUCH BETTER choice.

Good deal on these couplers. I shopped around and this was the best price for the quality.The Milton connectors are premium connectors and much better than the cheap Chinese imports. These do not leak air so I can keep my compressor on all the time and not have it cycle on and off.Thursday, July 4, 2013

The Bosch FNA250-15 is a solid, light, easy to use finish nailer that will satisfy all of my finishing needs. I'm re-attaching finished molding in an old house. The nailer puts the nail exactly where I want it and goes in so fast that even a small delicate piece does not split. Its a simple, honest mechanism that does the job for which it's intended. Careful, though, it does not come with pneumatic oil and the manual clearly states that it needs a few drops before each use. As usual, Amazon.com was an ease and a pleasure to deal with. The primary supplier from which the nailer came, Wurth Baer Supply Company was prompt and excellent, as well, delivery being exactly when they said it would be.Read Best Reviews of Bosch FNA250-15 15 Gauge Angled Finish Nailer Here
I bought this gun almost a year and a half ago and have been very happy with it. It is lighter than the Senco or Hitachi and has taken a few drops with no damage.The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me is that it doesn't have a built in air blower like the Hitachi or Bostich

i figured buying bosch, i was all set. i was thrilled when this gun came out. I am a Bosch loyalist.So this gun was a bit dissapointing. It sinks nails maybe half of the time, which ultimately makes my nail set alot more useful anyway.I'm a finish carpenter by trade, and use this gun every day...although, i use whoevers guns are around me at the time if i have the option. its a bit of a pain. time to invest in an old senco.I don't know what's with the new guns or what? I'm having a problem finding a nail gun that sets the nails deep enough, and yes I have enough air pressure and my older guns work fine. I also hadn't even tried it on hardwood, only poplar. I had same problem with a very very nice Ridgid gun I purchased at Home Depot only to return it, same as I did with this Bosch FNA250 angled nailer. I find if you push really really hard it will set most the time ok, but that is without the rubber non marring pad. These depth adjustments are somewhat of joke anyway, from barely full penetration to leaving the nail sticking out 3/8 of an inch. Who would ever want a finish nail to stick out that far? Maybe just maybe for some extreme rare occasion someone might want it to be flush. Or it might be these are designed for Styrofoam installers.Otherwise besides that quirk and the fact that it is a bit on the loud side similar to the Hitachi, it would have been a very nice gun. One more thing, it came with no fitting. Not a problem for me, but I thought it odd since most guns come with them now days. I have been using these types of nail guns for over 30 years so I think I have a little weight regarding my observations. If you think otherwise let me know. Maybe by some very slim chance I got a defective gun, but not that I could tell. Only my 2nd time in many years returning an item to Amazon, and wow that was easy.
