• "This contractor is very pleased... with the compressor"

Review excerpt:

I own several portable compressors, but hate to lug them around. So, I bought this one for installations of wood mantels and little odd and ends work (like attaching a piece of trim after the rest of the job is already done). The little compressor is lightweight and perfect for small jobs like these. On bigger jobs I still use one of my heavy duty compressors. So, that may be the problem some of the other reviewers are having. It's just not built for heavy duty work.

The gun on the other had was a disappointment. I already had a Senco XP 25 and prefer it. Still, it's a pretty good price for both pieces, so, no real complaints here. I've just set the newer one aside, for now.

Regarding the cheap 1/4 inch hose... pleeeease. Anyone with half a brain knows it's a cheap piece of krap, but will work fine for the occasional hobbiest. If you want a good hose, buy one.

• "1" Pins w/Porter Cable Gun"

Review excerpt:

I have used break-away pins prior to the purchase of my Porter Cable pneumatic pinner, and will likely never go back. I do have to say though, that using pins as long as the 1", make sure that you have at least 100lbs psi to work with. If not, the heads will not completely recess, at least into 3/4" red oak. Worth mentioning, they are only good to pin an item until the glue sets...if you need strength, go with at least an 18ga nailer.
