I'm not entirely disappointed, but I'm not thrilled either.

This might be a good system, but it has some nuances and downsides. I think it's a good price for what you get if everything is ok. There are a few things to note: It's not a metal tube, so it doesn't flatten very well. You have to rely on hangers to keep it straight. Nor is it a comprehensive solution. I spent another $30 to get all the fixtures I needed plus a dryer/regulator. I wish the blocks didn't have threaded holes on the back but on the sides. The dowels provided do not screw flush to the block so you will either have to fabricate a dowel or embed the dowel into the wall. Hose and drain fittings are also thicker than blocks, so clearance is the best solution. I used 1/2 plywood with a hole drilled for the connector. A simple solution that you don't have to do. The included dump valves leak my entire system so it can't hold pressure without turning on the compressor every 1/2 hour or so. I need to add stubs to those that interfere with their use in the first place. Next time I'll bite the bullet and buy another system, but this one moves air from one part of the store to another.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
