Joe, I have one of these, and it works just fine for my air needs. I use it
twice a year to take tires/wheels off for winter and spring for snow tires,
airing up tires, blowing off parts, etc., but it does have to have a break
in between for tires. It normally builds up in between wheels so the wait
is minimal when doing a car. But this has worked to my satisfaction. If you
are not needing a continuous air supply at a certain flow rate like for
painting a car, a small compressor works great. Otherwise, get a big one
with a big tank.
