    *Construction seemed sturdier than other units I considered **MyBest.Tools** Noise level was reasonable. Good pressure and cfm capacity for a small reasonably light compressor.*

      What made you choose the 30 gal over the 20 gal? I'm in the same boat as you deciding which one to go with. I just don't know if 20 gal will be enough to blow my sprinkler lines or not

    • @dirtyjt69
      @dirtyjt69 5 лет назад +1

      I use an 11 gallon to do my sprinklers now. It's a LOT of refilling though and only 120 psi. After seeing this, I have no doubt that this thing will at very least do one or two zones per fill.

    Those Quick Release fittings are sold everywhere not just your job, Lol....those are called Universal Fittings, they automatically stay open for you can just shove the hose in........."U" is stamped on the coupling, you can always tell just by looking into the coupler there will be NO Ball Bearings VISIBLE, all you see is the rubber piece ready to accept any style fitting, they sell them at Harbor Freight. Dude i got that same Compressor just an older Model but same exact specs they just changed the stickers, That Tank is Awesome for those of you who havent tried 175 PSI in a 30 gallon tank, you must try.....that tank goes forever i rotated my tired before the compressor kicked on. Ive had it for 5 years now still runs strong i use once or twice a week

  • @THOMASDRELICH
    @THOMASDRELICH 6 лет назад +1

    Just fyi if you want a third hookup, take the plastic cover off the top where the two guages are. I think it uses and Allen hex head bolt. There should be a 1/4 port you can unscrew and screw in a third quick connect hookup. You just have to notch the cover before you put it back on so it sits right. I have the older 33 gallon model but I think yours has the same pressure manifold.

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  7 лет назад +1

      Andrew Finck I run my 1/2 and 3/8 inch Snap On impacts at 120 psi and it's got plenty on power. I do turn down to 60-90 psi for die grinders and other things that don't need the volume of air but rather a consistent level to use any length of time. I'm still very happy with my purchase, for the money, it's hard to beat.

I considered the 20 gal version since it's price is about $100 less, but when I looked at them side by side my mind was made up thanks to your video. I lost my Ingersoll Rand of 20 + years recently so these have been very sad times, but now I think I'll get over it. lol

  • @mlb6d9

    Good Video - bought one last weekend to replace my HF 21 Gal. Not that much bigger physically, but the larger tank at 50 additional PSI are good to have, as you mentioned. I'm a taller guy, and the Husky is easier to wheel around. It's also easier on the ears than the HF, and I just put on a Solberg intake filter which helps too.

    Nice compressor, I picked up an old 1977 sears and roebuck oiled 220v twin cylinder cast iron compressor, 30 gallon 150psi for 20 bucks, I did a rebuild, and had the tank tested, I added full synthetic oil, and it goes from 0 to 150psi 4 minutes flat, never had a compressor that fills so fast, I have 5, 20 to 40 gallon, oiled and oiless and the biggest only takes 5 minutes, that thing takes way to long to do a full fill, and the connector is called a quick connector, I use them on all my stuff, I use a sander and a die grinder with my sears 30, and it keeps right up with it, I have it kick in at 90psi and off at 150psi, how long the one you bought takes to fill would be a deal breaker for me, don't get me wrong it's a nice compressor, but you can find cheaper used compressors, I would never spend that amount of money on a compressor, especially an oiless one.

  • @halfstep67
    @halfstep67 4 года назад

    My biggest complaint with the oilless compressors is that I have two that I can't get parts for anymore. I have a 60 gallon 2 piston pump that is obsolete and can't fix and I have a 30 gallon single piston pump that is also obsolete and can't rebuild. So if you have an oilless compressor, then buy a couple rebuild kits before they go obsolete. That way you won't get stuck with a compressor that can't be rebuilt.

    I have that same Husky compressor I knew when you was turning yours on when you first turn it on, it had one sound and you were saying something about it had a little funny smell mine does the same thing but the second sound when you was trying to reCompressor up the pressure was a different sound is there a reason for that those to different sounds

  • @ELITECYBERSPY
    @ELITECYBERSPY 7 лет назад +2

    I have this one that is about 2 years old. Unfortunately it had a complete failure. The brush mounts for the motor cracked (only made from 1/16" abs plastic) and started sparking heavily before it stopped working entirely. A motor isn't sold alone but as a unit with the compressor and therefore it is $210 to fix it myself. Husky refused to repair it. So. Word of warning. Cheap design will fail

    @ryanhawkins1235 4 года назад

    I would still read the number on the cord to see what gauge it is as I have seen thick 16/3 cord that just have lots of insulation. You should still drain your tank because it's draining the water to prevent rust that is key to keeping your tank safe and long lasting.

    I think it's slower than it should be. I buy, sell and fix up compressors and have had a few of these and they were all faster than that. There are some videos on utube showing how to check the cfm or scfm on air compressors. I suggest you check it yourself and see how far it's off from what it claims. The smell has me a bit concerned.

  • @marcmondragone8649
    @marcmondragone8649 2 года назад

    Be careful. We bought one and after around less than two years it started falling , called customer service and they say it’s probably out of warranty. We checked inside the protective case and the brush housing which is made of plastic was broken and one of the brushes was not making contact . I’ve been looking for the brushes and plastic housing everywhere with no avail. Then I decided to get the whole pump which includes the brushes and housing and found out in Home Depot page that it is discontinued. If it is that difficult to get parts for this compressor then it is consider garbage. Now we have to pay to dump it .

  • @neilhoffman6764
    @neilhoffman6764 2 года назад

    This compressor does not have an ASME certified tank. I was ready to pull the trigger on the oil lubricated one but that one also does not have an ASME tank. I wonder if that is a big deal or not. Safety is huge of course and all of the other mfgs like Quincy, Rolair, Ingorsoll Rand, etc have certified tanks.

      @Powertool1990  6 лет назад

      Karl Febel yes, it's perfect for casual use. I was able to rotate all my tires without the need for the compressor to even kick back on. The 30 gallon tank is well worth the investment.

    Did the smell go away? Can you run a 1/2" impact without issue?

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  5 лет назад +2

      Yes it will run my 1/2 inch snap on impact with no issues at all. Obviously 30 gallons will only last so long and depending on how heavy use, it may need to catch up but mine took all 4 of my 8 lug 2500hd wheels off to rotate and never even cut on to refill.

      Crisp Cuts Landscaping definitely worth it, runs everything I want. Just keep in mind it's 30 gallons so it will do anything you want for a semi short amount of time. But I'm about to rotate the tires on my 8 lug 2500hd truck, without it even needing to cut on and build air.

  • @geomiss8889
    @geomiss8889 5 лет назад +1

    Non oil compressors are perfect for home use..Just think about actual run time for the average user..In fact a 5 gallon oil less compressor fills 90 percent of our needs. This size will handle hvlp and lvlp spray guns for any wood working shop project built. As for air tools we use cordless for the most part these days. With that said it will handle MOST air tools and TIME is not money. Simply put know you tool requirement and scale the compressor to actual use..We are not commercial production shops.

    I've been looking at this compressor for a very long time. I have the 20 gallon and its not bad but cant keep up with my needs. I want to use a die grinder and other air tools. Have leaned towards a 60 gallon but id rather save the 220v for my welder and plasma. Can this compressor keep up well with that grinder longer than what you demonstrated? If you keep running it to the point the compressor has to turn back on does it keep up with it or will it drain the tank completely? Thank you.

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  7 лет назад

      Blaine Stewart I haven't had the chance to use the die grinder any length of time since making the video. I did rotate the tires on my wife's car and I was able to remove and install all 4 tires with my 1/2 snap on impact without the compressor cutting on to refill.

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  7 лет назад +1

      I just did a quick search and looked up a average harbor freight die grinder, says it uses 4 comments at 90 psi. If the ratings are correct then I would think the compressor would be able to handle it. Again I haven't had the chance to personally test it but according to the specs it should run it no problem as long as you set to 90 psi or lower.

      Jay Sosa this compressor has handled everything I throw at it from tire rotations, cut off wheel, air nozzle, and I literally just came in from using my 1/2 inch impact to pull the bolt out a small engine flywheel and use it on the puller to get it off. I'm very happy with it so far. If you plan to run a shop with it daily I might go for the oiled version because it will last longer and build air faster but for the side work I do, it's perfect for me at a great price

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  7 лет назад

      Matt Vander Pas I don't think it will be used enough to require any filter. I would add a filter if I planned on using it daily to run a shop, but if that was the case I would have stepped up to the same size oil compressor model.
      Draining the tank from the valve at the bottom of the tank every week will help with any moisture in the system. Keep your air tools oiled and you should never have a problem. Thanks for watching!

    Not sure if you still check your messages, but I’m curious how this compressor is fairing now that it’s been a couple years? Also, you did a great job reviewing this compressor. I picked up the 20 gallon from the homeless despot last night, and immediately regretted not picking up the 30 gallon.

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  4 года назад

      You can probably still exchange it for the 30 gallon, I'm still very happy with it. The only issue I've had is a clamp leaking which I covered in another video. Now my regulator for air pressure has a very slow leak under pressure, but stops leaking around the 125 psi area. So my tank is still holding at least 125 psi for days or weeks at a time. When I need it I flip it on to get it to 175 psi and still works great. Best bang for the buck compressor in my opinion

      Repairs & Reviews Thanks for your input! The following morning I took the 20 gallon back, and traded for the 30 gallon. I noticed a huge difference as soon as I turned it on in quality and power just from the sound of the motor alone! I hope to get years of service from this compressor! I couldn’t remember, but did you get the extended warranty from Home Depot? It’s like $45ish? I didn’t get it, but they said I’ve got 30 days after purchase to buy it. Thoughts?

      @@StubbornWorkshop That's awesome, I didn't get the extended warranty but depending on how long it is and if you can spare the extra money it wouldnt be a bad investment. I've had mine probably over 3 years now with minor issues

    Do you drain it after every use? I have to drain my little pancake model every time

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  5 лет назад +1

      I don't only because I use it so frequently, I leave it full and just cut off the power switch. If I need a quick spray of air, it's ready and I don't have to wait 10 mins for it to fill

    • @lonestarsapper7d
      @lonestarsapper7d 5 лет назад

      You aren’t worried about getting the water out so the inside doesn’t rust through? Thanks for your response btw..only asking because I would like to get a bigger one. Thanks again

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  5 лет назад +1

      I'm not worried, I pretty sure the motor will stop working long before the inside rusts. But there is a drain on the bottom of the tank I drain periodically to get moisture out.

    Will a 20 gallon tank do well for similar jobs ?

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  6 лет назад

      Depends on the max pressure, I originally got a 21 gallon with 125 psi and it didn't perform well running tools at all. I returned it and got the 30 gal 175 psi and it's great running tools. I highly recommend running 165-175 psi the size of the tank only effects how long it will run the tool. I think 30 gal is alot better option if you can afford to get the 30 gal over the 20 gal.

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  6 лет назад +1

      I'm well over a year now and I use it regularly without issue. The oil less model has won me over for home owner use. I obviously wouldn't have one to run a shop daily but it's more than impressed me for home use

  • @sjhippie
    @sjhippie 7 лет назад

    6 months down the road how has this been working for ya? I have the 21g HF and it really is a piece of crap...especially not restarting after it hits the cut off point.
    Looking to use it for impact guns, hvlp, air cutter and possibly some light media blasting(not a whole c a r but more small areas and parts).
    How do you like it? I've heard a lot about not getting a belt driven oiled compressor but this is $200 cheaper than the kobalt I'm looking at

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  7 лет назад +2

      sjhippie UPDATE: as of June 24th 2017. This compressor is still running strong, does everything I need it to do, including, running my 3/8 and 1/2 drive impact. I blow my zero turn lawn mower off after every use, and the 30 gallon tank lasts long enough to do anything i need. If I was running shop and needed a high output of air pressure all day, I'd obviously get a bigger model but for what I need and the price, this compressor continues to impress me. It holds air for days/weeks without loosing any pressure. I had the same opinion about oil less compressors but this one has definitely changed my mind. Highly recommend. Hope this helps make your decision and thanks for watching!

    Thank you for the great review. I am curious about one detail though. How long is the power cord ?

    • @Powertool1990
      @Powertool1990  5 лет назад +1

      I'm not 100% sure the actual length, haven't been outside to measure. I'm guessing 3 foot which in most cases is more than enough but I moved my compressor by the garage door so I don't forget to turn the switch off and it's about 1 ft to short to reach where I need. But I have a small extension cord and it works great

    Do not buy anything from harbor freight; after purchasing a lift and a compressor and having issues with them their customer service was god awful. They made it incredibly difficult to get ahold of them for issues and the service representatives were horrible. I used to compare tools with harbor freight, but that small savings you might get is not worth the hassle when ultimately there is a problem with their product. I went with a husky compressor and hands down beats the harbor freight one I had. Plus you automatically have a warranty with anything husky. I used to buy into harbor freight, never again.
