This item arrived re-packaged and taped shut. It was used, broken and someone had tried to repair it before they returned it. Apparently there was no quality-control involvement in the re-selling of this item. It was supposedly new. The good news is that Amazon makes the return process relatively simple.

I purchased this compressor in 2009 to drain my drip irrigation systems for winter. I used it once to do that, blowing out the irrigation lines for approximately 12 small raised garden beds. Since then I have used it to inflate a few flat tires and it's otherwise been stored in a clean, dry tool shed. This fall when we fired it up to drain the irrigation system again, it did not work. After two days of trying to talk with tech support and to order a simple part, we are exactly nowhere. The company is extremely disorganized, can't transfer or return a call and can't even take an order for the defective part! The compressor is out of warranty even though we've only really used it once. Save your money and don't buy this piece of junk or anything else made by All Power America!

Im not happy with this compressor, I could get over the fact that it is really loud but I feel it does not work as well as it should. it takes along time to fill up the very small tank so even after just a couple of bike tires you have to wait to fill the system again. I would not recommend buying this, spend a little more and get a bigger one.

The magnet worked extremely well for my presentation. However it was LOTS smaller that I had imagined. Do you have others similar that are larger? Thanks.

The physical dimensions listed in the specifications are absurd.They say 1.4 pounds and then say what the physical dimensions are. If the magnet had those dimensiions it would weigh in excess of 50 pounds. For experimental use the distance between the poles is needed.

Danby Premiere DPAC11010 Portable Air Conditioner

We bought this 11,000 BTU Danby August 2010 when our downstairs central a/c unit failed. We intended to use it as a temporary solution for a few days until our central air unit could be replaced, but we were astounded at how well it cooled so decided to hold off on spending the $4000-$7000 replacement cost.

While I'm writing this, it's 101 degrees outside in San Antonio TX, but inside our 648 sq ft open living room/kitchen area it's only 79! Current air temp being output by the Danby is 57 degrees. Last August we had temps of 105 and higher, and this unit was able to keep us cool downstairs, although the compressor was running almost continuously to keep up. And when the compressor does shut off, the fan continues to run and circulate the air there is no "auto fan" setting, so it doesn't shut off or turn on when the compressor does. Apparently this is common among many portable a/c units from what I've read.

One thing I've noticed on the temperature settings if we set the inside temp to be 78, the compressor will continue running for a long time even after the room temp cools to 76, perhaps stopping when the temp drops to 75. Likewise, the compressor will remain stopped even when room temp rises to 80, perhaps kicking back on when temp reaches 81. So there's a spread of at least 4 and perhaps 6 degrees between what you set the room temp ie. your actual room temp will vary from 2-3 degrees cooler to 2-3 degrees warmer than what you set.

This is a dual-hose ventilation system (some portable air conditionesr are one hose), and it was very easy to set up the included window kit only took about 30 minutes to get the unit unpacked and running. The window kit works with windows which open up and down, and with those which slide sideways.

It's a self-evaporating unit, so that most condensate from the cooling process evaporates instead of collecting in a reservoir and this appears to work as designed we've opened the bottom drain plug occasionally to check and never had any water drain out.

Comes with a 24 month warranty, but if you register it online and complete a short survey, you'll receive an additional two months!

Overall, we've been extremely pleased with the Danby, and it saved us from making a huge and immediate unplanned expenditure for A/C repairs. We're now able to take our time, shop for the best deal, and replace our central a/c unit at our convenience.

We used this all summer long in our large master bedroom. When we first got it I thought it would take a very long time to cool but it surprised me when we felt a noticeable change in temperature in under 20 minutes. An hour later the room was at the temperature we wanted and we were loving this unit. Then we realized that my husband installed it incorrectly and there was a small gap that was still letting in the hot heat from outside. When we filled the gap it got even cooler faster. Over time we had it nicely setup where we just switched it on and got the room cooled down fast. Does the job, we were happy all summer long...

EASY TO MOVE ABOUT THE HOUSE WITH THE CASTERS. ONLY TAKES MINUTES TO HOOK UP TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION. PUTS OUT PLENTY OF COLD AIR TO COOL A ROOM. I HAVE FOUND IT VERY DEPENDABLE WITH NO LEAKAGE. A MUST HAVE, IN THIS HEAT, IF YOUR CENTRAL UNIT GOES OUT. IF YOU WANT A PORTABLE AC WITH VERSATILITY AND DEPENDABILITY THEN THIS IS THE ONE I WOULD ADVISE IN PURCHASING.

The folks at Danby apparently never heard of Steve Jobs.

The user interface and usability is horrible and the

manual is even worse. Descriptions of many features are

missing from the manual.

I purchased this air conditioner to cool a small server

room at my school.

This air conditioner never turns off. When the room temperature

goes below the thermostat setting, the compressor turns off

but the fan keeps running. Depending on the fan speed you select,

this will consume 50, 60, or 90 watts all the time.

The next ridiculous feature is the Auto-timer. I expected this

to be a time of day timer but instead it is a on or off duration

timer. Default setting on power-up is 8 hours for on and for off.

This means that when the air conditioner turns on, it will stay

on for 8 hours regardless of how cold the room is. My server room

got down to 60 degrees due to this feature. The manual does not

say how to turn this off but tech support told me I could set the

timer to be 0 hours and then the autotimer mode would be unset.

If I lose power, I'm back to the ridiculous mode of 8 hours of

continuous on -no non-volatile memory in this device. Finally,

there is no way to review your settings. If I'm in timer mode, and

switch to another mode, my timer setting of zero automatically

gets reset to 8 hours. This means that I can't put this air

conditioner on an external programmable timer because, power

cycling will reset the auto-timer. And, of course, the temperature

setting would be reset.

The manual says nothing about how to connect up the intake air and

how it is split. Turns out that the intake air gets split to the

cool conditioned air and the hot exhaust port. This means that if

the exhaust goes outside the room but the intake remains inside the

room, the room will get depressurized. If the intake and exhaust

are connected to the outside, then the room will become pressurized.

This pressurization/depressurization could be a potential health

hazard if there is a combustion source in the room. This isn't really

a big deal but it should be discussed in the manual. I currently have

it connected with intake coming from the room and exhaust (hot air)

going out.

I'm not using the window kit but the intake and exhaust hose dimensions

are incompatible with any standard duct-work. It is very close to 5"

duct but is not quite compatible with anything I can get at my local

hardware store.

There is no way to program the range of temperatures (the hysteresis)

of the thermostat.

The manual refers to a standby mode but there is no light to indicate

that the unit is in standby. I just thought it was off until I called

customer support. This is important because that is how I program the

auto-off setting of the stupid auto-timer.

The air conditioner seems to work fine when in cooling mode. I've

had it for only 3 weeks so I can't say anything about the reliability

of the device.

Because of the usability and lack of non-volatile memory, I definitely

would not purchase this device again.

GMC SYCLONE 6310 Ultra Quiet & Oil-Free Air Compressor

• Ultra Quiet - Only 60 Decibels - Less Noise than someone talking!
• Oil-Free - No Maintenance - Ectra Long Life - 3000 hour life cycle
• Large 6.3 Gallon Steel Tank with Wheels
• 3.80 CFM @ 40 PSI & 2.35 CFM @ 90 PSI - MAX 120 PSI
• Low Amp Draw - 7.6 Amps

It's a little guy and you would expect it to be pretty much powerless. Not so says I. It is a god awful silver color and does actually say GMC on it. Putting the UGH in ugly aside for the moment, this thing does exactly what it says it can and does it without waking the neighbors after a midnight paint frenzy. Nah you can't use it to paint a car in an hour but who cares. If you buy this your running small paint jobs, nail guns, brad guns, small to medium air tools along with tire chucks and blowing crap out of a corner that the broom and vac wont reach. It is quiet and goes all day if you need it to. It is medium-small so you can take it with you without to much trouble.

Eat your heart out Briggs. Now if they would paint the ugly duckling black and yellow or blue or, well anything other than stark-blinding silver. Oh I think I should mention to all of you perfectionists out there that the welding points where they attached things to the tank are rough. They didn't grind 'em down to be smooth or look good-thus the silver to cover it all up.

I like it and will buy another when this ones life force blows out.

Thanks for reading.

I selected this using because I was looking for something as quiet as possible with decent airflow. I am into racing offroad RC cars and mainly use it for cleaning them in the garage.

Pros:

This unit is so quiet it is really amazing. It used to be that as soon as I turned on power to my old unit my wife would yell at me to turn it off if she was home. The first time I used this one she only came to see what the noise was once I started blowing air. The air makes more noise than the compressor.

If you are looking for an air compressor for light household duty and quiet is important then this is well worth the extra over a unit from the local hardware store.

Cons:

Mounting of wheels not well thought out. They rubbed on the side of the tank and the mounting bracket is not perpindicular to the bolt where the nut sits. A quick trip to OSH for some nylon washers and nyloc nuts and all was OK.

I have used it a number of times now and I am really happy that I took the chance and ordered this unit. Shipping was very fast too.

This is a terrific value for the money. For one thing, it's a twin-cylinder compressor so it fills up its air tank pretty quickly. And boy is it quiet! I live in an apartment building but I have no hesitation at all in using this compressor at all hours, it's so quiet. On the other hand, it does transmit a good bit of vibration to the floor, so if someone lives below you I would recommend setting it on a couple of solid cement blocks as I have done; this dampens the vibration very nicely.

Now it's true (as other reviewers have pointed out) that the construction is somewhat rough-and-ready (big ugly welds) but that does NOT detract from the overall quality, it just means it's not as pretty as it could be. Also, the wheels are not the very best design for mobility, but hey, considering the incredible bang-for-the-buck you're getting, why complain? Besides, just how much are you going to be moving it around anyway?

In addition to its other merits, this little workhorse comes with a combination air regulator/air gauge/moisture trap/quick-disconnect socket. The regulator is adjustable and if you push the cap down, it locks in place so the specific air pressure you want stays the same until you pull up the cap to unlock it again. All the hardware appears to be good solid quality too; it does not give the impression of cheapness. Also included is a 2nd air gauge that tells you what the pressure is in the air tank itself.

I have had five different air compressors over the years and this is definitely the most useful of the bunch. I can't believe what a wonderful bargain this is. Very highly recommended.

I researched compressors for days and was spooked by all the problems people had with various models. When I came across this one and read the four or five reviews that had been posted, along with the specs of the compressor, I decided to give it a try. This is absolutely the quietest compressor I have ever seen, particularly considering how quickly it pressures up the large tank. The on / off switch is very accessible and the unit can easily be moved around. This is a perfect unit to have in a home shop or garage as it won't drive your family or neighbors crazy as you work on projects late. Know that it does not come with a hose or attachments. I bought the 50' Goodyear hose and Ampro accessory kit, which was exactly what I needed. Placing the compressor at the head of my garage, I can reach vehicles parked in front of the garage with ease. Don't scrimp on your air hose and the Goodyear one doesn't fight you ... it just lays down and behaves. My only complaint is that they should include adequate washers to space the wheels away from the axle mounts so the tires do not rub. Before you start to mount the wheels, get at least 3/16" thickness in washers to fit on each axle or you will wish you had. Couldn't be happier with the unit and would recommend it to anyone.

Great compressor but.... per other reviews required 4 washers on each wheel to keep them from wobbling around and rubbing the tank. The unit also arrived without a tank drain. Contacted customer service who was prompt and courteous but sent me the wrong sized drain plug. Finally went to Home Depot and bought a 1/4" NPT drain for $3.39. The unit works great for my airbrush and detail spray gun. Quiet as advertised and included moisture trap is a plus. I would rate the compressor a 5 so far but due to the fact that it came in with minor issues that have chewed up my gas money, pocket change and time, drops it down to a 4.

Pros:

Quiet as advertised

Quick to pressurize tank

Moisture trap included

Oilless

Works great around the shop with airbrushes and LPHV detail spray gun used for large RC models

Locking regulator knob

Cons:

Arrived without a tank drain plug

Needed to add washers to wheels as noted in other reviews

It would be nice if the guages where angled or facing up so you didn't have to get down on your hands and knees with a flashlight to read and set them.

The price on Amazon dropped $15 two weeks after I purchased the unit plus 3.39 and gas for a drain plug that fit.

Ramsond CUT 50DY 50 Amp Digital Inverter Portable Air Plasma Cutter Dual Voltage

• Automatic Dual Voltage/Dual Frequency (110/220v 50/60Hz)
• Integrated Digital Display of Current (Amps) and Pressure Gauge
• Integrated Pressure Gauge Display
• 60% Duty Cycle
• Max Severance Thickness: 1-InchMax Cut thickness: 3/4-Inch

Ordered from Amazon on Monday and received on Friday. Four days from Michigan to Missouri is fast shipping.

This machine was packaged well enough to be air dropped if necessary. The outside box was lined with Styrofoam. The inside box was lined with about 1" thick foam that was made to fit the cutter.

It came with everything except an electrical plug which makes sense because it will work on 110 or 220 so there is no way for them to know what type plug to send. I wired mine for 220.

The first thing I cut was some 1/8 " steel. It zipped right through that. I then tried some ¼" with no problem. The next thing I cut was ½" steel. I got through it but I had to take it easy. I didn't have anything thicker but with my lack of skill I'm not sure I would tackle anything thicker than the ½".

I also tried some very thin steel and it did a great job with a low amp setting. 1/8" and ¼" aluminum cut with no problem.

I don't have a steady hand so most of my cuts looked pretty rough but the machine cuts so fast with no resistance it was hard to get a straight cut. Anyone who has used a cutting torch will know what I mean.

I still don't know how they can produce this much cutting power in a 25 pound machine but they did. I am impressed with the machines quality and performance

I was a little apprehensive to purchase this plasma cutter because of the price, but I'm so glad I did. Ordered on Monday and got it Thursday. Right out of the box (after attaching the air filter and adding a 115v plug to the cord) I was cutting 18 ga. floor panels for my 54 Ford Victoria. I was impressed! I learned to use a piece of angle iron to cut straight edges. I later cut 1/4 inch angle iron like a hot knife trough butter. For those whom rebuild cars, I highly recomend this cutter. Can't find better for the money.

Is this thing as good as the expensive Millers, Hypertherms etc the short answer is no it is not. But for what it costs and how it performs it is worth every penny for the home hobbiest. It produces a clean cut through the 1/4" steel I routinely cut. No experience cutting much thicker then 1/4" but at the settings I am at for 1/4" it just may do 1/2" just fine. I should note that I have it wired 240 volt.

The regulator is cheap but works, I may replace it with a better one in the future though.

The torch head is also cheap and will not hold up to abuse. I have not done long cuts but the cutting I have done the handle has not even become warm so I have no worries of it's ability.

So in short it is a inexpensive hobby type plasma cutter that works as it claims. It is not a plasma cutter to use in a high demand work shop.

I was in the market for an affordable plasma cutter. i searched online and found a CUT50DY plasma cutter from Ramsond corporation for around $500 with free shipping. I had never heard of the brand, but I had seen good reviews of the cutter so I figured I'd give it a try. Upon receiving the plasma cutter (which was packaged very well in full styrofoam), I wired an outlet in my shop for 220 volts to run the machine. I was curious to see if the machine performed as stated, so I hooked up my air line, plugged in the machine and found a piece of nearly 1 inch thick solid square tubing. I was VERY impressed at how it cut through the steel. I operate a small farm on the side of my normal job (law enforcement), and the day after I received the cutter, while planting corn with my planter, I broke a large bolt and welding on the planter. I brought the planter over to my shop and used the plasma cutter to remove the old bolt and also had to cut at least 1/2 inch thick steel tubing and again, the cutter performed beyond my expectations to fix my planter. I would definitely recommend the plasma cutter so far. I can not attest to the long term durability of the cutter but it definitely exceeds my expectations of a lower priced plasma cutter.
