> 3 dayIt is a great air tank but I wish I would have paid attention to how much it weighs then I would have went with a lighter one. It should last 10 lifetimes but it is super heavy and hard for me to carry around. If youre younger and stronger then go for it you will like it.

> 3 dayI found the whole assembly well-thought-out for the casual user. The valve does a good job of keeping the air in when you want it to, the connections make it easy to either fill the tank or use it. Could they be tougher or better protected? Sure. But in casual use, this thing should last for a very long time. Key thing to longevity is to detach all hoses and other stuff while transporting it. You cant expect the tank valve to survive much abuse given how its installed vs. how the rest of the assembly acts on it. Welds on mine looked fine, just as the paint job. Its very light, and it stores a much more air than my compressor. Makes it ideal for quick refills of tires and like stuff, rather than having to lug a compressor and power cord around. I would also recommend it for large but intermittent loads, where your compressor can use it like a battery to store air that is going to be released in short bursts that exceed the capacity of the built-in accumulator. Using this tank in a fixed installation is likely a waste as similar steel-based tanks cost less. Downside of steel tanks, however, is that you have to watch for water (and the resultant corrosion).

> 3 dayThis works great to bring compressed air to a small job, without having to lug the compressor over to the job. Easy to connect male fittings to it. Red handle turns off air flow when you need to do so. It does not feel heavy to lug around. I use it around the barn and workshop.

Greater than one weekThis tank is just what I was looking for. It is light enough to carry and has 2 connect ports besides the fill port. Besides the Schroeder Valve for filling it has two quick disconnects. I use one of the quick disconnects to fill the tank while the discharge hose is connected to the other. It is a good balance between carry ability and capacity to do the intended job.

> 3 dayso far so good. its a nice tank. be ready to replace most of the adaptors and shutoff valve accessories, theyre junk. for some reason they add this adhesive that makes it almost impossible to remove without damaging them. lost a star due to that

Greater than one weekHave several cars that have leaky wheels or tires. Bought this because once you fill it, you can quickly top off your tires, without waiting for a small compressor to do its job. In the winter no one wants to wait five minutes to top off one tire. This does it in under 30 seconds. That said I bought a longer coiled air hose, and a squeeze trigger with a built in tire gauge. Hose locks to the tire valve for one-handed operation. Keep in mind you do need access to an air compressor to refill the tank. Handy thing to have and great to put air in tractor tires in the field.
