Good Compressor But.
By Roger K.
Idaho
Purchased 10/17/2024 |
Review Posted 12/02/2024
Would have given a full five but it arrived damaged.
The valve on the compressor motor was damaged and the compressor would not compress air. I took the valve off my old compressor motor. It works now. They should send replacement valve.

23cfm@90psi Best In Its Class
By Jeremy G.
South Carolina
Review Posted 07/14/2024
I called Mega and asked how many CFM@90psi because every store I looked at this model compressor, CFM was different. They informed me it makes 23cfm@90 psi. That’s the highest in its class: everything about this compressor is high quality and craftsmanship. Mega even includes a shut-off valve (which other manufacturers do not).
Motor is a very heavy duty industrial grade, and not loud at all. I bought this to run my HF upgraded blast cabinet with an upgraded gun,, and it has not run out on me yet. Best HF blast cabinet you can buy.
(Excuse my photo, when the picture was taken, I was still installing an aftercooler.)

CONSTANT PRESSURE
By John
Oregon
Review Posted 06/07/2024
I use this for a blast cabinet. It keeps constant sand-blasting pressure the entire time. It fills fast and the motor is enough to provide blasting pressure just on its own without the tank even being full. I timed how long the tank would take to empty with an air tip and it took 13 minutes to completely empty at full pressure. My old tank would empty in about 4 minutes. This tank is assembled in Texas and the quality shows. It's simple to set up and I know if I maintain it properly it will last decades,

Never Recieved Service Kit
By Kevin B

Purchased 02/09/2023 |
Review Posted 04/15/2023
Filled out all stuff required for free service kit and never received it. Also have noticed a little bit of oil leak from compressor and noise from motor. Waiting to see what becomes of both, before submitting problem claim.
