beyond fabulous
By R. Wolfe
a plumber for 35 years i am always looking for the perfect tool to replace what used to be the perfect tool in my truck. this thing is beyond fabulous. lightweight and well balanced when you grab and go it is also well protected by its case. it is as light and compact as all the truck compressors i've used but didn't have the tank to build up pressure for the air gun for blowing out lines. adjustable pressure delivery dial and a cord wrap that actually works. rubber feet let it stay put while in use instead of "walking around."

Good Value
By Penny
Good value for the price. The air hose is chintzy, but easily replaced, when necessary, with standard 1/4" NPT hose from any major hardware store. The air flow rate is far greater than tankless air compressors, so this is a much better choice for automotive, truck, bus or RV tires. It would be over-kill for smaller tires. I didn't think it was too noisy, unless you have it very close to your ears when operating. There is an easy cure: get more hose. I don't think pulling on the ring of the relief valve to bleed off tank pressure is a good idea. It is noisy and will wear out the valve prematurely. It is also hard on your finger. Install a trigger-operated inflator instead and bleed off at the hose end instead of at the relief valve. I have only used it a few times, but am very pleased with performance so far. Durability remains to be seen. Bear in mind that the manufacturer recommends tank replacement in 10 years, regardless of how often it has been used during that time. It should last much longer if used infrequently and if the tank is ALWAYS drained after each use.

By D. Miles
This Porter-Cable CMB15 portable compressor replaces my small twin tank Campell-Hausfeld that took forever to fill and only put out 125 psi. Now with the luxury of 150 psi output and quick cycling to fill the tank, mounting tubeless tires and getting them to "pop" on the rims is a breeze plus the tank is large enough for powering my impact driver to break a few large nuts free when I need to. It's a lot quieter too. Only thing I might add is to buy yourself a few quick release fittings and you'll be all set.
