[Shop-talk] Any experience with this HF Compressor?

[Frank Vantacich]

What are you going to use it for?  Check the CFM's on your tools to see if the
HF model will run them.

Howdy,

Anyone have any experience with HF's US General 5hp/60 gal two stage
compressor?

93274.html

Between the sale price and a 20% coupon, it'd be $640 before tax.  I'm having
a very hard time justifying something like a $1400 Champion 5hp/60 gal with
this out there...

I've heard that they're actually put together by a US company.

Anyway, I'll probably give it a go, unless I see a bunch of folks that have
had a bad experience with this compressor.

Mark

(I know the plusses and minuses of HF in general btw... I'm looking for
experinces with their bigger compressors here.)
