Has anyone purchased the Central Pneumatic 4-1/2 HP 21 Gal air compressor from Harbor Frieght before? Was looking at getting an air compressor that size to run air tools and some primer work.
Any thoughts?

I think you'll be disappointed with the performance of that compressor. 3.5 CFM at 90 psi will really limit the types of air tools you will likely want to use. It's best to determine what tools you'll like use, look at the amount of air they require, then buy a compressor that can handle those tools.

A compressor that has to run constantly to keep up with the tool or having to stop using the tool so the compressor can keep up gets to be very frustrating after a short time.
