The Porter-Cable CMB15 150 psi, 1.5 gal Oil-Free Fully Shrouded Compressor runs a 2.0 SCFM at 90 psi allowing for quick compressor recovery time, per ISO1217. The 1.5 gallon tank is fully shrouded and is easy to carry. It includes a water drain valve and rubber feet. The 150 psi max tank pressure stores more air in the tank for longer tool runtimes and the durable oil-free pump allows for long life and no maintenance. The low Amp 120V motor starts easily in cold weather or with extension cord and at only 20-Pound it is easily portable. It has a low noise motor at 79 dBA (Tested per ISO3744) for a quieter work environment. The fully enclosed design provides protection from hot or moving parts. Includes a 25-Feet coil hose and 8 pc accessory kit facilitate a number of inflation tasks. Includes a 1 year warranty on compressor components.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

beyond fabulous
a plumber for 35 years i am always looking for the perfect tool to replace what used to be the perfect tool in my truck. this thing is beyond fabulous. lightweight and well balanced when you grab and go it is also well protected by its case. it is as light and compact as all the truck compressors i've used but didn't have the tank to build up pressure for the air gun for blowing out lines. adjustable pressure delivery dial and a cord wrap that actually works. rubber feet let it stay put while in use instead of "walking around."

Good Value
Good value for the price. The air hose is chintzy, but easily replaced, when necessary, with standard 1/4" NPT hose from any major hardware store. The air flow rate is far greater than tankless air compressors, so this is a much better choice for automotive, truck, bus or RV tires. It would be over-kill for smaller tires. I didn't think it was too noisy, unless you have it very close to your ears when operating. There is an easy cure: get more hose. I don't think pulling on the ring of the relief valve to bleed off tank pressure is a good idea. It is noisy and will wear out the valve prematurely. It is also hard on your finger. Install a trigger-operated inflator instead and bleed off at the hose end instead of at the relief valve. I have only used it a few times, but am very pleased with performance so far. Durability remains to be seen. Bear in mind that the manufacturer recommends tank replacement in 10 years, regardless of how often it has been used during that time...
The compressor failed on the 4th use (less than a month old)
I received the compressor as an early X-Mas gift less than a month ago. My expectation was that the compressor would serve me well as a portable unit ideal for occasional home-use, primarily for adding air to car and bike tires, and pumping up basketballs, soccer balls, etc. While the hose and accessories included with the unit seemed very cheap, I was hoping the compressor itself was not cheaply constructed. However, on the 4th time using the compressor (to add air to a car tire), the unit failed. In particular, there's a massive internal air leak (inside the case) that renders the unit unusable. The compressor runs and the tank builds pressure to 150psi, but when the regulator dial is turned clockwise to provide working pressure, there's a massive leak inside the case and pressure is immediately lost, most likely behind either the regulator itself or perhaps at the connection to the pressure gauge. In any case, I've repeatedly checked the safety valve on the side and relief...
