I don't know why but these are coming up at my local Walmart. From what I've seen for the price it's a great deal. Make sure it has the accessories pr it won't be the right item. Hopefully everyone can snag one if it's available mine had about 3 but were in different sections
i don't have this particular one but got a similar set up. the accessories that come with it will be enough to get you started with general home use, ie air up tires and blowing some things off, but they likely will not be very good qualilty. while i use the fittings to attach to the compressor i ended up buying a better quality hose and end attachments. for $50 it should be well worth the money. if i needed one i would go for it

Noooooooo. This thing is only rated for 2.4 SCFM at 90 PSI. Check the air tool you are planning on using and it will give you an SCFM at the working PSI. Most require about 4.
I have this from last time it came up (~$10 more and no accessories). It's great for homeowner use; car tires, pneumatic impact, cutting wheel, nail/staple. I'm going to go see if I can get another at this price.
A friendly note for new air compressor DIY users, be prepare to spend more money to setup the system. I bought the non-quiet version from previous deal and I realized there are more to just tubes, connectors and air tools to consider.
On the other hand, it is indeed a great tool for tough jobs. I got the anode rod off my 14 year old water heater in less than 5 minutes with an impact wrench.

It is loud indeed. I think it is over 90 decibels. So this one should be a lot better. It has slight lower SCFM but should be fine for most job. You won't be able to use it for continuous jobs like drilling anyway. Just get 3/8 in hose and high flow connector if you want to handle tough bolt like I did.

Any idea why this "quiet version" would cost less? I am debating on getting this.
