george frontino Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Hey TIA and crewToday I have a review of the Husky 8 Gallon Air compressor.Price: $80SCFM: 4.0 SCFMMax PSI: 125 PSIModel number: TA-2530AHorse Power: 1.5 Horse PowerThis is my first personal air compressor and I honestly love it. My main use for this compressor are framing and using a palm nailer. (Review to come on those shortly) For those two applications, it works perfectly fine. I have also used this compressor to inflate car tires, and it obviously worked for that. The current price of this compressor at Home Depot is $129, but I bought it on black Friday for $80. This unit also has a handle and wheels. Assembly was less than 5 minutes. Assembly entailed putting the wheels on, putting the handle on, and putting the air filter on. This unit does require oil. This unit is loud but not very loud. There is also a regulator to regulate pressure to your tool. The air compressor is also light enough to lift in and out of a vehicle. There is also a quarter turn tank drain located on the bottom of the tank. A bottle of oil is included. If you are in the market for a small easily movable air compressor, I would recommend this unit to you.Ratings:Price: 5 out of 5Durability: 5 out of 5Value: 5 out of 5Ease of transport: 5 out of 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
