Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Ordered from Amazon, arrived quite fast, BUT:
The box looked suspicious, so I opened it in presence of the FedEx guy. The SINGLE tape holding the top in place, came off almost by itself..!
Allthough the corners of the box were torn, the styrofoam ends were "intact" and there was clearly no damage caused by the shipper..
Then I lifted it out of the box > NICE and LIGHT!! < BUT: Components fell out of the ripped, flimsy plastic foil cover. Wheels, handle and some individually packed, small parts were there - BUT NO accessories as advertised (coiled hose etc.) At the initial inspection, found the main metal pipe (covered with heat sink fins) hanging LOOSE and obviously having BROKEN OFF the connection at the compression cylinder. It looked like the welding/solder connection had broken. This obviously would have rendered the compressor useless and NON functioning. No further inspection was performed, just repacked the unit carefully (evem added extra bubble wrap packaging (which should have been there in the FIRST place!!) And initiated Amazon's RETURN process, which so far was flawless and convenient as usual. I requested a refund (had no other choice from the instructions..!..?), but would NOT have asked for a replacement anyway, since I lost "faith" in this product!! Summary: I guess, "you get what you pay for", the price of ~$150.- incl. "Free Super Saver" shipping, was toooo good to be true. The System looked NICE and COMPACT, was surprisingly LIGHT weight and had impressive specs. But it actually gave me the impression, it was a RETURN from someone else ALLREADY (missing components / "lousy" repacking. It's a shame, that these manufacturers built, what seemed to be, an actually nice unit and save money on the PACKAGING ! IF the unit would have been complete and NOT defective, it MIGHT have been a NICE Compressor ... I'll NEVER find out ... P.K.H
