It blows, but it also sucks.

I bought 5 of these for my home shop/clean room about a year ago. In the last two days, 3 out of 5 have torn spontaneously and started to leak profusely. Inside is a 1/4" NPT metal threaded socket that the hose threads into. Even if they were overtightened (which they aren't), it shouldn't cause this crack. There appear to be residual stresses due to injection molding of cheap materials. The second complaint is that it's almost impossible to adjust the airflow like I've done on previous…

Works perfectly; Not sure how long it will last

Bought for use in a working workshop. Blow guns are used more than any other air tool I have and so far they are working well. I like the convenience of the tool and it's definitely breathable; However, I can't help but feel like it sucks and will break easily. When using it outdoors, it fell on the pavement a couple of times, and while it still works well, it's sustained a few battle scars. Looking at the design I think it will most likely fail at the connector as the plastic in this area is…

If it works before it fails, that's great! However, don't expect too much life from him.

I returned the first one I received. It didn't work properly and took a few tries to deflate, even at 120psi. After I poured some grease into the valve seat, everything was fine. I received a replacement as I discovered this after filing a complaint. All in all, if it works, it's great! The plastic case is very durable and the airflow is great! Best I've had in 30 years of blowgun ownership. Buy it. If you have trouble starting, spray some light weight lube on the valve area and enjoy for years

Good air sock at a good price.

It's not perfect but it's good and I don't regret buying it yet. The rubber tip on the end is very comfortable and well designed, I've dropped it a few times and it seems to be holding up well. I noticed that the air intake is glued on, but it seems tight and the glue seems well applied so it's likely to hold and not leak. The only real "complaint" I have is that the trigger has a lot of travel compared to my other cheap air vents I've used. It would be nice if that extra reach gave me more…

  • Air Compressor Accessory
