A useful tool for lightweight low air consumption applications. Neatly packaged with small footprint and light enough to carry around. Only 6 litres, so has a limited capacity, before you buy make sure you understand it's capabilities vs the air consumption of any tools you may want to use. Cannot comment on its durability as mine is low use.

I purchased one of these 2 years and 2 months ago. I used it once a month to blow the hairs out of my electric shaver which involved filling the tank once and switching it off, a total use of approx 30 mins in 2+ years. It is stored in a warm dry house. So a couple of weeks ago I switched it one and it started making nasty noises and cut out. So rather than throw it away I thought I would check it out and I found that the motor bearing was an open cage bearing (No 27 Part No 6204-RS) , so no lubrication and it was disintegrating either a design fault or more likely cost cutting in manufacture, 25p for an open cage bearing or 50p for a sealed lubricated bearing. I contacted SGS and said I wasn't impressed and their reply was , it's out of warranty and " you need a new motor which is £48 in total plus any delivery charge on top". So because they have produced a compressor with the incorrect bearings they expect me to buy a new motor probably still with the wrong bearings in it and go thru all this again in 2 years time when it fails again. I will buy another compressor from a different manufacturer and consign this to the bin. Picture one is of some of the bearing cage that flew out. Picture 2 is showing the oval hole where the bearing is - it should be round. Read full review

Excellent device. Fits under bench and is not too heavy. Very stable on the bench. Fills tank in about 1 minute. It is noisy, but no worse than other compressors No leaks. Everything works as it should. Easy to use, compact and convenient Seems to be of good quality and I thought good value at under £80 Definitely recommended for airbrush and small scale spraying. Also for tyre inflation, cleaning, etc. Over 100psi capability makes it useful for numerous applications (I am using it to test model steam engine components)

i love this compressor takes less than 30 seconds to fill the tank then the engine cuts of starting again when the pressure in the tank gets to ur required psi output & is prity quiet for a compressor i use it for my 71 series staple gun and nail gun which it handles with ease
