Im sure some of you have seen this air compressor sor sale at Kragen. I was wondering if anyone has any expirience with it. The CFM ratings don't look too bad and for $99, even if it a throw-away model, looks pretty tempting. But then again, it doesn't look to hold much air and this is the first time I've ever heard of Nikota. Any advise appreciated.

Oh, I'm not trying to use this forever, just long enough till it breaks or I find a much better one, cause money is quite tight now.

The small air compressors are ok for small jobs.They dont really have a big enough air tank, to power DA sanders or cutoff tools for long.If your doing work on cars,the bigger the air tank the better.Also make sure it has the CFM output to handle what your using it for.The comressor I have is a 60 gallon 6hp model,and it barely keeps up when sandblasting. I have a Nikota and use it mainly for blowing out water lines,in swiming pools. Runs well and no complaints
