Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I agree with the wheel gripes.The wheels are injection molded with a very thin plastic, one of mine had a slash in it and collapsed on first use.
So, I went up to farm and fleet and bought two new wheels with steel center and solid rubber, heavy tread, put them on and it is perfectly mobile over any terrain, now.
I also agree Makita fudges on the specs.
Most important though is the performance in use, and there, it shines.I've used similar double tank units from other manufacturers and much prefer the design of this unit.It stores connectors and a hose, handle breaks down for storage/transport, It is made very well and is quiet for a unit this size.
It does draw power on the initial kick on, as they all do.I'd hoped to run this on my Yamaha 2500 watt generator, which is equivelant to a 20 amp circuit, but no go.It blows the breaker everytime.And the Yamaha runs a portable DeWalt table saw, jet 1200cfm dust collector and a chop saw just fine (not all at the same time!)
So, while it is not perfect, it is a good performer and I'm very satisfied with the comressor at the cost.
