The above product description is misleading at best. Google "CFM" and "SCFM" and you'll find CFM is a static number where SCFM can be measure at pressure (typically @ 40 & 90 psi). I took the chance that the copy meant SCFM given the numbers provided were at pressure and rated at the standard 40 & 90psi. Not the case and I'm a little frustrated by the copyright's or seller's lack of knowledge. Upon product arrival the 5hp motor is really a 2hp motor (5 peak) and the SCFM is about half of the incorrectly used "cfm" above (~ 4.8 @ 40 & 2.? @ 90). A disappointing transaction in that I had to return the product and look for something that truely produced in the range of 6.9 SCFM@ 40psi.

The plastic housing/tool storage area actually looked to be very useful when viewing in person. If you want to run a brad nailer or pump up a few tires or basketballs once in a while, the product would work great. If you want to run any cutters, die grinders, or anything that would require even moderate air flow I'd move on.
